I could listen to Boris talking for hours, lord.
Ikr. He's such an outstanding pianist!
Boris and Tiffany are not just incredible and dedicated musicians but such humble, warm and kind souls.
He has such a big and loving smile ❤ He talks with so much passion. I already love him
Musician as archaeologist! Boris was an excellent choice to kick off this series. He came across as thoughtful, articulate and genial, a great communicator whose enthusiasm was infectious: he helped me see Beethoven in a new light. 🎶👏
This is incredible!!!! I'm so excited for more in this series.
Giltburg is a genius!!
The part when he speak about his fav sonata was so beautiful
Thanks so much Boris and Tiffany for recording this. Could listen to Boris talk all day about music and his online masterclasses are brilliant. Keep up the great work both of you bringing the joy of music to the world!
Loved the point that pieces mature as you learn them not just because of your age. I found it helpful to learn my exam pieces as early as possible, even if not to a great standard. It feels so much better to relearn them a couple months later and build on musicality when it’s all so familiar.
Tiffany, this is such a good interview. I learned so much.
Fascinating to hear to gifted pros discuss music.....
Imagine something like this would have been recorded 50 years ago with interviews with horowitz, michelangeli, Bolet or Shostakovich
This is great! I am happy to see Tiffany creating this bridge between musicians and their audience. Very cool!
I love both pianists!!! Boris is the king of Prokofiev
Agree with Boris about LvB. Always victorious and real. My sustenance lifting me above sorrow.
Me too. And Andras Schiff "There is no self-pity in Beethoven".
He's so passionate!
This conversation reminds me of listening years ago on the radio to Marian McPartland's weekly interview show "Piano Jazz" where she would have the best interviews with fellow musicians. I miss those interviews! But now we have you Tiffany doing something just as great. I'm looking forward to many more of your interviews!
Thanks Tiffany😍❤
Yes im in !
This guy is so filled with life! Thanks for introducing him to us! 👍
Awesome interview, BTW. 😉
He's brought so much joy, energy, perspective, reassurance, and love into our days in quarantine with his livestreams and masterclasses. Thanks for sharing, Tiffany!
If you like to listen about Beethoven sonatas, then I recommend Andreas Schiff lectures he did about all 32, it can be found for free online.
adored this chat, very inspiring for him to talk in such beautiful manner❤
Mr Giltburg you are not boring!😆 I was captivated by your passion for music and your explinations display a really indept understanding of what you're playing and of just music in general. I really really enjoyed this. Thanks so much Tiffany Boris Giltburg.
Finally! I come here right away after finishing my lesson:)
Fabulous!
Great inaugural episode! I read about Boris' project. Love his enthusiasm! Thank you Tiffany. Love this new channel!
This is delightful! Thank you!
Absolutely fascinating!
So warm, open and pleasant man and his speech goes not from his laryngx or lungs but from his heart. And this explanation which sonata is his favourite...I think, i've never heard from anyone so deep and inspired words.
Thank you Tiffany for Boris and thank you, Boris, for you!
Boris is so wholesome & adorable! Thank you for arranging this, Tiffany.
As music lovers, we've gained a lot of knowledge and wisdom from this :)
Thank you❤️
Really enjoyed this first episode Tiffany. Boris was a great first guest. And you’re a natural interviewer. Looking forward to more episodes.
This is truly wonderful
I like this format to discuss classical music. My opinion of how classical music is typically presented when performed would take more than a comment box allows, but if I'd have to summarize what I think of what you're doing here Ms. Poon is this. You're taking classical music out of the rarefied air of the penthouse and bringing it to where most people are, the ground floor restaurant or pub.
Having gotten a degree in fine art in more youthful years, I can appreciate all the conventional ethereal language of the transcendent nature of the music. But at this point in my life I've come to the sense that much classical music is intensely visceral and likely intended that way too. For instance, when I hear (and see) some of the more virtuoso performances of Yuja Wang and Valentina Lisitsa, even in video the energy imparted and transmitted is palpable.
Thank you for bringing this idea forward. Making music accessible. Hope to attend your concert live one day. Really enjoyed your dream stage concert.
This is a wonderful talk. I love Boris's Beethoven. The slow movements are particularly luscious and sublime.
Finally
wow!!!!! I'm Very excited for this channel! !!!
Amazing stuff! Tiffany is actually a great listener and the chat is fun and easy to follow 💯
Yesssssss
Tiffany is excellent interviewer. She doesn't try to upstage the guest and just let's him run with it. Refreshing.
Very interesting insights on such a project! It would be great to have also these interviews as podcasts on Spotify (just the audio of the video) 🙂
That was really great! I didn’t know him, he plays so wonderful and such a kind human! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 more of that, please!
#1 and more to watch
This is great. I'm still learning.
Excellent interview. You chose a fantastic interviewee for your first one. May all of the others be as enthusiastic and communicative.
Small tip: Be careful with the lavalier microphone. They easily pick up rustling noise from brushing against skin and clothing.
this is beautiful, thank you, thank you, thank you
Fantastic work, Tiffany!
Great discussion! So wonderful to hear so Boris Giltburg's insights into the visual and emotional interpretations of Beethoven's Sonatas and the corresponding insights into Ludwig the human!
wow, that piano sound is so beautiful... I want that sound
I enjoyed this so much! Listening to Boris discuss his love for Beethoven's music and hearing the depth of his thinking and interpretation was so inspiring. You did a wonderful job hosting, Tiffany. I can't wait for more episodes. In the meantime I'll be checking out Boris's website and projects. Thank you! :)
Ah, Tiffany, this was really good. Great to hear two performers talk. Your WOW at the end, haha. That is what I also thought. You rock. And Boris, thanks!
Tiff, the sounds Boris produces is what a pro sounds like. Keep striving! ;)
Loved thisss!! 😍 can’t wait for more!!!!!
Op.111 ....yes...wow...rarified atmospheric genius composing....and the musical journey of performers ...and listeners....
This was so inspiring, Thank You Tiffany and Boris!
Maybe this sounds weird but I am really proud of you, and the wonderful things you give the world 😊
Finally!
I really enjoyed this session and his smile just enlightens your mood, and I agree with his views on Beethoven, as a fellow Beethoven lover and player I really relate to his visions and ambitions. love you sir, you are amazing.
Inspirational, a truly passionate pianist.
This is amazing!!
Wow this was so beautiful
Great episode!
Can't wait to watch more😄
This video is amazing!
This was really lovely watching! I hope to see more!
Love it! Excited to hear more, this is an excellent idea and will hopefully bring people closer to the musicians who are so passionate about classical music!
This is wonderful!!! I love this new channel, I never heard of this Boris, and i really admire him now😍👌🏻 thank you Tiffany for this amazing and very candid interview❤️
What an outstanding interview Tiffany ! Or as it turned out to be,
a same-level discussion between two full blood enthusiasts. This is more than an interview, this very inspiring talk will have a place in the journalistic history. I will emediately look up Boris works. This is what comes to flourish when passion goes before technical perfection.
I bring with me the word "soundscape" 🕯️

Inspiring and interesting comments from a top sympathetic fantastic pianist !
So sorry missed Boris first concert on dream stage ! Hoping so hard for a next opportunity !
This was treat to see and hear this period piano, ALSO the inspirational analysis and comparison to contemporary times and people of Beethoven's struggles. I think we all have the same feeling about Beethoven being this brooding, melancholic genius, who had this great desire for overcoming. Great video T.P.
I've never heard of Giltburg, he seems very nice.
He is an awesome pianist. I recommend listen to his Schubert and Rachmaninov.
His prokofiev suggestion diabolique, war sonatas and concertos are also incredible!!
I heard him first on the Dresden livestream and had to hear more.
He is the second prize winner of the 2011 Rubinstein Competition and the first prize winner of the 2013 Queen Elisabeth Competition
Your background curtains remind me of Harley Quinn , luv it
Piano is my primary instrument but I also play violin and let me tell you, it is very frustrating coming from a pianists perspective because we are so used to hearing a somewhat good sound the first time we use a piano and violin takes a very long time to be able to make a somewhat decent sound out of. But that is normal when it comes to violin!
My questions would be: Do your find that your interpretations do justice how you feel about the music at a transcendent level? Do you find that your deepest and most convincing interpretations are the ones that you've lived with and developed for years, or the pieces where your interpretations are fresh and almost impromptu? If it weren't Beethoven's 250th, are there any sonatas in particular that you wish you could live with for longer before recording, or does your creative personality really thrive on this type of time crunch?
Are you planning on filming the episodes in a studio ? would be dope
👍
Is yeol eum on your interview list? I’d die if I had you both on my phone together. The 2 greatest pianists of the day!
✨ Boris, while you are talking about Beethoven’s genius I assume that you agree he was only listening the inner voice that was inside him which was telling him what to put in the notes. The same Chopin and others. As long they were creating amazing Art that we are noticing. The genius is not Beethoven’s, Mozart’s or Chopin’s. The Genius I think is much more above them all. I love this webside: www.jw.org but you can choose another one. I really enjoyed your conversation. Thank you so much !! ❤️
23:10 What about the cello sonata no 5?
That 1873 piano has 85 keys; the 3 top notes on the standard 88-key piano are missing. Not a very serious shortcoming; just a bit odd.
Beethoven is said to have had a piano that was similarly short on treble; I think it's in the 3rd mvmt of the Moonlight Sonata, where I saw a footnote that a run that was parallel to an earlier one, only raised a bit, didn't go "all the way to the top" because his piano was shorter than today's standard 88.
Fred
The piano compass was smaller then. I think Beethoven used C0 to F7 (Op. 106 only) and Eb7 (Op. 111 only). My daughter's school had an 85 key upright. She tried to play one of the missing notes - looking at the music - a bit painful.
Oops, it is C1.
@@murdo_mck Yes, I gathered that it was shorter back then.
C₁ to F₇ would be 78 keys; if that's what he used in that piece, there could have been a few more keys on his piano.
Fred
Would love to see fazil say here
Curtains colours = Força Barça ;)
Anyone else think he looks slightly like Jim Carey?😂
His Dreamstage promo photo reminds me of Clive Owen
Oh plz no! 🤣 Jim Carey is a clown on stage, this guy has a wonderful spirit and a kind heart ❤️ and amazing musicianship 😍
@@ssmaktoum
Jim Carey is also very sympatic !
