      @@dang5874 I think even we as listeners have some requirements for the music to feel fresh and new, while respecting its conception by the composer. This intuition doesn't require a virtuoso, but rather, a jaded listener. The moment I heard this lady here I knew I would stay for more. I'm tired of the usual performances, I needed this new clarity and fresh ideas. In the end, this is both in the spirit of rachmaninoff, and imbues it with fresh ideas that feel good. This whole recording just feels so good. There's so much for the ear to grasp. It's like rach 3 by that Trifonov guy, just such a brilliant and innovative fresh take

      @@amadeusradio9608 A reasonably educated listener can detect differences of performance style among different performers. Rachmaninoff was famously unique in his interpretations. That you may not be able to imagine generalizing his style and recognizing interpretive decisions which conflict with it is no reason to presume that the entire rest of the world is so incapable.

    Absolutely marvellous! Ms. Chochieva has perfectly polished technique and gorgeous tone that she is able to control in almost inhuman precision. Her clear, superb voicing and the vocal singing quality of all the lines hidden in the textures is second to none. Here we hear transcendental playing so musical and expressive that one is not interested by what means it is technically possible to accomplish all those lush, colorful and pliable sonic effects. One is simply carried away to a musical wonderland, to different dreamlike places and scenes by listening the otherwordly tone she is able to evoke. What a magician she is!

    I normally avoid commenting on youtube at all cost (I feel like it's an unspoken faux pas for musicians), but I have to say, I'm really impressed. This is interesting. The ones that are dearest to my heart, I'm super picky about: 39/4, 39/8, 33/4, 39/7, etc. I have some interpretations that I like, but I think she does great with them, though this is not in my zone of my curmudgeonly tastes. Here's the thing, as I'm listening, I'm realizing that this pianist _particularly_ elevates the etudes that I never really liked! 33/1 is one that I barely ever listen to all the way through. This recording is incredible! Wow, what a range, what a coherent idea! It's SO good! 33/3 she also commits to with conviction, usually I feel like people phone this one in, just make it "brooding" or what have you. This is next level. 39/9, I also think she is nearly ideal. She even sells 33/8 pretty well, and I just don't appreciate that one.
    Perhaps her 33/1 is the most remarkable in terms of elevating it for me like I've never heard before.

    Ms. Chochieva plumbs the soul and intention of Rachmaninoff in her performance of his Etudes-Tableaux. Her approach is exploratory and fresh, highlighting the intricacies and textures, via her fidelity to the score; but evincing with unique interpretations of these masterpieces, unlike any previous ones. I greatly applaud her, in her stunningly successful body of work here; her's is surely an historical landmark recording of Rachmaninoff's Etudes-Tableaux. I know I will return many more times to listen these sublime masterpieces, so beautifully interpreted by Ms. Chochieva. I have tremendous gratitude for Brilliant Classics for this magnificent post.

      Are you able to articulate one or more of the surprising aspects of this? I quite enjoy this recording but frankly it is not revealing to me anything that I hadn't noticed before in russian pianists' recordings. I believe you, I am asking because I really want to know.

    • @AlanInUtah
      @AlanInUtah 6 лет назад +4

      These things are exceedingly subjective, what I can say is that she approaches it from standpoint of lyricism and discovery over just banging out notes. Many of the recordings I have listened to tend to treat these as "etudes" in most technical sense. I think of them as studies in color and shape. She brings color, texture and shape out in her playing as well as giving due to the technical bravura when needed. Watch the video of her giving advice on the Chopin Etudes. I think it really does express her thinking on pianism. I like how she is able to bring out melody and line without overly slowing the tempos and over romanticising them. There is beauty and refinement without being pretentious. She thinks of texture and line on many levels as you would hear in Rachmaninoff's own playing of his own music but it is her own interpretations. The one etude that really demonstrates this for me is the e-flat minor of Op.39. There are many levels of texture, she doesn't rush it, it has space to breath and it has grandeur and breath of emotion without being overly sentimental. It sounded almost orchestral. Not sure that answers your question. I just recently discovered myself so I'm digesting what I'm hearing. So far for me, she is phenomenal.

    I always love it when I hear a young pianist play op.39 no.8. For some reason, very few pianists dare to play no.8 live. It's a risky etude due to the awkward key in which the doubles have to be played and due to the 'jumpy' left hand, but it's not an impossible etude. Does anyone know if she ever played op.39 no.8 live?
    Ashkenazy rarely played no.8 live, and I believe Richter even ignored no.8 altogether. Of the pianists of today, only Lugansky and Volodos seem to enjoy playing no.8 live, but I'm sure there are more. If you have a suggestion, please let me know. Thanks!

    @shawnmand5607 5 лет назад +4

    Rushing through many of these. Maybe one person doesn't need to play all of them. That's why we get standout performances of certain Etudes by various pianists. For example, in Chochieva's hands, I don't hear any heartbreak in Op. 33, No. 4 in comparison to Lugansky. In Op. 39, No. 3, all I hear is a brilliant collection of notes. And there is no comparison to Volodos's interpretation of Op. 39, No. 8 where he envelops us in a never ending phrase, with unparalleled legato in the melody, while still bringing out inner voices, except he doesn't have to hit us over the head with them.

    • @flyingpenandpaper6119
      @flyingpenandpaper6119 4 года назад +1

      I hear plenty of heartbreak in Op. 33 No. 4. I favoured Lugansky at first, but after playing it (for several months now), I was unsatisfied with his interpretation. I don't agree with all of Chochieva's choices-I wouldn't emphasise the unusual voices she finds-but nevertheless, her interpretation is astoundingly coherent to me.
      The wealth of articulation in the Op. 33 No. 4 demonstrates that it is not as free and fluid as Op. 39 No. 8. I believe it is to be played unsentimentally, in the same way Rachmaninoff played his own works. And Lugansky ignores a lot of the staccato, and you can barely hear some of the counterpoint when he's so intent on voicing the inner and upper lines. His pedal isn't blurry, but it's unnecessarily strong.
      And neither of those are difficult, by the way. It is much harder to create a working balance-of dynamics and articulation-than to sing the melody alone, as I can attest from personal experience. Lugansky plays the piece as though it is Impressionist, but it is not.
      I came here only to listen to that Étude after recently rediscovering this recording. The brisk tempo, articulation and careful structure is what sets it apart from any other interpretation. Lugansky is second in my book, with a very fine interpretation. But his is not perfect to me, while this can be.
