Someone had to do it 🙏
This is a hidden gem, probably one of the great readings of the Op 39 set. What a great raw piano sound as well.
Isn't it amazing how nowadays you get to listen (an watch) to magnificent new recordings of your favorite music next to old ones? This rendition of the Études Tableaux Op 39 just has it all: perfect somber atmosphere, right tempo, crystal-clear recording, excellent instrument and a superb interpreter. It's the first time I heard from this pianist and he is now one of my favorites. Bravo!
gpowerp you're right! He equals Lugansky's benchmark recording of the Op 39... But with a completely different energy. Rach would be proud.
"Right tempo"
so amazing... so true. !!
By far the best performance I have ever listened to for no. 1
Giltburg has Rachmaninoff's music in his bones. Every note has meaning. These performances will never be surpassed.
spotted
If Giltburg truly had Rachmaninoff in his bones, he would have been more reserved in his playing style. Just look at any video of Rachmaninoff playing his own music.
This is the most satisfying 40 minutes I've ever had on RUclips.
This is was your first time on yt, wasn't it?
@@l.1244 No, not by a long shot. Not sure if that is a good or a bad thing...
Totally agreed
@@l.1244 How can you spend 40 minutes on RUclips if it's not listening to music? We live different lives ;-)
I feel Boris is connected to the heart of Rachmaninoff like he was still with us amazing talent and soul.

Wow. He's got that incisive, capricious, explosive Horowitz quasi-improvisatory thing going here... jaw-dropping playing that really brings out that demonic side to these ... These pieces really push tonality in ways that are very unexpected, they are wonderfully lyrical but complex and need really attentive listening. There is so much going on in the rumble and swirl of notes, so much emotion, so many ideas bursting forth, it leaves you breathless. No. 5! It's something akin to a cataclysm or some overwhelming natural process, like mountains being birthed. I grew up listening to a recording of Horowitz playing this, and it still leaves me awestruck. I really feel that Rachmaninoff is extremely underrated as a composer.

I whitnessed him playing Rachmaninoff ‘s third piano concerto. His performance was out of this world.
(kind of like this video...!)
I know it’s 4 years later…
But it’s spelled *witnesst, not whitnessed.
@@MildSatireit’s witnessed. You can’t spell either, and oh the irony in that.
@@bartwatts1921 I hope you're being sarcastic as well. Please tell me your skull is not this thick, Bart.
In other words, it was demonic. (But today people consider everything "metaphoric", right?) These are days of evil. These aren't the times of Rachmaninoff anymore.
Boris Giltburg is a wonderful pianist - this reduced me to tears.
After listening his music a lot for months, now I has realized the name of Boris Giltburg could guarantee the amazing experience to the audience while entering his marvelous musical world.
The voicings in no. 8 are a revelation
This is amazing! A complete run through of Opus 39, with no edits and in one take increments. Giltburg did not sacrifice anything in regards to spontaneity, completely in the moment. The dark lighting adds to the moodiness and melancholy of these Etude Tableauxes, and the Fazioli sounds lyrical and powerful. His reading of No. 5 "Appassionata" it top notch, taking it "marcato" (measured) as Rachmanivov intended, which builds in power and intensity until the climax bursts open in a torrent of octaves, chords and double sixths. Likewise No. 6 "Red Riding Hood", becomes a force of nature. Giltburg's accuracy is phenomenal. What a night! Bravo Boris!
Unfortunately, he is using too much rubatos in all set which really little bit spoiled the complete performance and final musicalexperience, otherwise he would belong to the great piano masters of these etudes
Exaggeratedly "virtuoso", no more healthy sobriety. Demonic in the truest sense of the word. Rachmaninoff can perhaps still be found today with Lugansky. And personality? Probably not at all.
The playing is wonderful, but it's a delight to watch him play too. His posture and hand movements are so expressive; you can almost tell exactly what's he's thinking as he plays. Truly great to have found this video. His No. 6 is phenomenal! If I could play it, my interpretation would be very different, but hearing him play it-it's so convincing.
Love the passion
Absolutely astounding and authentic! The first is just extraordinary - that rolling right hand and the march! And the D Minor is just so...inspiring with that poetic ending (way to slow down!). An artist of the first degree.
My dad heard Rach's last concert in Knoxville (soldiers got in free) and was always, "Why can't you play like that?" LOL Even dying of cancer the program was gigantic by today's standards: The English Suite (Bach), Schumann, Chopin's 2nd Sonata, 2 Etude Tableaux, 2 Chopin etudes, Wagner, Liszt, 2 Transcendental Etudes (Liszt) AND an encore!
Absolutely extraordinary!Amazing rendition!!
It's wonderful. Such talent.
Outstanding!
Wow wow.
I'm reallyy glad tocomee here by a personal recommendationn.
What an exceptional performance.
Thanks for sharing it.
Added to my favourites list.
WOW!!! And, sending Aloha from Honolulu, Hawaii 🌺
Tecnica incomparabile....delicato e potente.Emoxionante e vigoroso...trionfante.❤
Boris giltburg is such a stunning (and maybe even a bit underrated) pianist, almost everything he plays seems to be crossing the border of where I thought the limits of the piece lay, bravo!
I cannot tell you how many times I've listened to this recently it's so incredibly well done. These pieces by Rachmaninoff do not get enough attention!
That was wonderful.
Absolutely perfect interpretacion ! You truly found nice proportion of sound in each Tableaux.
9:22 One of the only recordings I've heard in which the figuration in bars 5 and 11 is phrased as Rachmaninoff wrote it.
So überwältigend! Brillante Interpretationen 👏
Fantastic, I like your technique a lot, you’re excellent. Successes, a friend Eliab
Beautifully played, deeply felt
A galvanizing performance. Bravo!
How do you play with all those shadows on the keys. I can get really distracted by that when playing. Playing was terrific and you understand how to make that Fazioli sing a roar!!! Thx.
@Mookie Spindlehurst I actually think this is one of the most incredibly filmed piano performances I've seen from an artistic standpoint. I was amazed by it. There's very deliberate use of changes in lighting to highlight light and dark in the music -- for example at the climax of no. 7 the camera pans just a bit to capture more light on the piano as we hear the sudden burst of those luminous cathedral chimes in an otherwise very dark piece, but the shadows resume quickly after. It's a beautiful moment. I understand that it can be annoying if you're trying to observe the hands though.
This is something special
Great performance. Thank you very much indeed
Having just made the mistake of attempting to listen to Lugansky, this is a blessed relief!
Lugansky recorded those when he was very young, nowadays his playing is much more refined and introspective. But yeah, this performance is definitely better by almost every standard to that recording.
truly remarkable playing!
The last etude definetly gave me a blast listening to
Hi I'm from Taiwan and I really like your playing I play like I'm showing my muscles and you sound beautiful how did you do it? thank you for playing i like it
Очень хорошо !
Спасибо.
Amazing! Loved everything!
Excellent. Bravo!
Music speaking to you load and clear!
Восхитительно . Самое лучшее исполнение среди всех !!!❤
Он очень хорош!
Я бы осторожно сказал, одно из лучших исполнений.
amazing!
I just couldn't find the perfect way on how to play the Op.39 no.5 other than this. He played it so dramatic and intense.
Fantastic music so delicately played ❤️
Also listen to alexei sultanov‘s playing. I find it also quite dramatic and intense
masterful.
Fantastico ❤
Génial la bande son de ma vie ...
Fantastic performance...👌
一番始めのエチュード、色々な演奏家の聴いたけど、この演奏家の表現が一番音楽的でドラマチックにまとまっているように感じるわ。
n3 is out of this world
Very good representation.
Восхитительно!Браво!!!👏👏👏👍👍👍
Very good
Great
Genius.
Dark, sarcastic, paranoic, forlorn, gloomy.
Real Rachmaninoff...
Very musical playing..at least he does doesn't bang the music out of the piano, like the majority of Rachmaninov players.
piano magic
Whaou !!!
if you watch closely you can see the person who is holding the camera in the reflection
Wow
24:11 it's obvious right here
It takes _39_ minutes to play Rachmaninoff's Op. 39 Études-Tableaux. Coincidence? 🤔🤔 I think NOT!
Interesting thing to notice, but definitely a coincidence 😂
I would be very impressed if Giltburg could play Rachmaninoff's Op. 1 in one minute!!
MAGIQUE
How can he see?
Totally Unique out of this world interpretation of Etudes Tableaux
The piano playing is very fine, but I simply can't abide the hunching posture along with some of the gestures, which I find off-putting, and which obtrudes into my complete enjoyment of the recital !
Why the fuck op. 39 no. 7 is known as a funeral March?! I dont get it
the first section is literally a march with "lento funebre" as tempo marking
0:14 and 2:08 he plays A flat instead of A natural in the left hand.
I was looking for a good recording of the C minor etude. In all respects this is one of the best recording on youtube. Sound recording is good. Note clarity, voicing, technique is all great. Everything is highest quality and truly impressive... but the rhythm / tempo / pulse is so out of control it is almost sea-sick inducing. I am sure it is a stylistic choice and not a lack of ability, so it is a matter of taste, but it just does not work for me. It is the over the top sentimental romanticism that replaces substance with affectations. Then again, I can barely play this piece, let alone the entire opus, so my opinion worth little.
Zгениагьно,,,,,,
Vietnam 🌶
He isn't Vietnamese
A complete assault on the tempo of No.3.
The playing is magnificent. The cinematography is terrible.
I don't agree, but it was a funny comment!
No. 1 Is making me sea-sick!
Pretty good, but still long way to go to achieve the transcendental level of Lugansky in the interpretation of these etudes
Rude :(
My guess is Giltburg considers Lugansky too sedate on these. There's a vast difference in their interpretations, and that's not bad - just personal. Rach would not mind; he gave his own interpretations to everything yet is considered top of all pianists.
n5 is bad
Try sultanov
@@serkanbozkurt4550 i know, he's the best
