Brilliant, gorgeous colours, tone, phrasing, attack and dynamic control and expression at the very highest level. Of course. Pure Yuja Wang. Thanks Yuja.
My goodness, these renditions are ones for the ages. The clarity of the voices, particularly in the nearly unplayable Málaga, is breathtaking. Such power - and grace - in everything she plays.
I will never, never forget Claude Helffer's rendition of Iberia, I discovered Albeniz through him, what a dream, so precious rendition ! and still love it 40 years later . By chance it can be found on RUclips.
it's amazing that Yuja and Alicia DeLarrocha play this piece a bit differently, yet both interpretations are beautiful! I heard DeLarrocha several times when she came to Los Angeles and actually was able to meet the great pianist! She added her own touches outside the score indications but she had this music in her blood and so it was convincing - esp. her command of the many different rhythms and her ability to stretch them here and there and still keep the feeling intact!
This should be music really known by heard, and not just the notes, but she is not spanish so it's like she doesn't know where to phrase the musical accents properly.
These are definitely spectacular performances. Then you listen to de Larrocha and realize why she was one of the greatest pianists in history. There’s that big of a gap, but it’s not that Wang isn’t great. ADL was just beyond human.
Mmm.... Yuha es una pianista maravillosa pero.... Creo que le falta algo en Albeniz, pasion, no se, una interpretación de Malaga muy precisa y técnicamente impecable como no puede ser de otra forma pero para muy fria. No es Alicia de Larrocha
No entiende, suena muy poco musical, es como si no entendiese los acentos y los ritmos de manera apropiada. La verdad es que me ha parecido rarísimo escucharla
UJA , MICHELLE , DUTCH PILOT , & ANASTASIA HOPPMAN SHOULD HAVE THEIR CHILDREN FIRST . I WANT THE 20 WIVES MORE THAN ANYTHING-2 KIDS FROM EACH . THERE ARE SO MANY I LIKE , AS WELL AS WOULD LOVE & RESPECT HOW MUCH BETTER THEY ARE .
Love this dry, woody, barely-pedaled interpretation! Please, Ms. W., a full "Iberia" on CD!
Not the full Iberia but a recording by Yuja of Malaga and Lavapies is coming out on a new CD in May 2024.

Is there no end to the enormous amount of music this wonderful musician has committed to memory . Her repertoire never ceases to amaze me .
My goodness, these renditions are ones for the ages. The clarity of the voices, particularly in the nearly unplayable Málaga, is breathtaking. Such power - and grace - in everything she plays.
Yuja has a very large repertoire. They say she learns new pieces very quickly. This is beautifully played.
She is magnificent! Yuja strikes me speechless as usual.

JUST SO MAGNIFICENT--SPEAKS FOR ITSELF .
Thank you all who make this presentation possible. A small wonder.
Alicia de Larrocha played a magnificent rendition...Yuja played this on the same highest possible level
Not quite
Nowhere near Larrocha’s level.
She is phenomenal. Those pieces are most difficult, she seems to play it so easily. What is missing is a touch of Albeniz Spanish atmosphere.
This should be music really known by heard, and not just the notes, but she is not spanish so it's like she doesn't know where to phrase the musical accents properly.
Yuja! So Talented and Lovely Lady!!!
Brava!!! 💚 Viva España!
Pure Spielfreude und Lust
Your are almost there!
Nice watch

SING!!
La musique est espagnole. L'interprétation exubérante ...à souhait pour certains, elle, ne l'est pas.

The pianist is not ready to play Spanish music !!!!
Meno male che qualcuno lo capisce...
Viva la grandissima Alicia de Larrocha e Rafael Orozco.
you just say that because of the way she dresses and looks. if this was an anonymous recording, I highly doubt you would think this way
She is definitely not ready.
Lack of singing !
Yuja is ready to play something she wants. She is the BEST!!!!
Brava!!! 💚 Viva España!
