We used this piece at my beloved mother's funeral just 3 days ago to accompany a slide show of photos of her life from a baby with her parents to a child with her 3 siblings, to a school girl, to getting married, to her having her 5 children to having her grand and great-grandchildren into her old age, dying aged 97 after many moves to many places including Algeria during its terrible war of independence in the 1950s - a whole lifetime in just over 6 minutes of music. The music of Schubert was a perfect accompaniment to these photos, in fact I cannot get over just how perfect this music was - what a lovely tune it opens with and how many lovely tunes Schubert composed!. Schubert was a genius and yes, Khatia plays this with feeling, tenderness and great artistry. This music will forever remind me of my Mum who also loved Schubert's impromptus. RIP Margaret Stedeford
I'm learning this piece right now and your story is very touching. I'm sorry for your loss, but thanks for sharing, it really inspires me to understand better the power of this piece and put my heart in it. Thank you so much.
Your story touches my heart. I hope your mother lives forever in your loving memories. Also I am certain your mother now is in her Creator's place, in absolute peace and tendernrss.
There is such total power and control in her playing. It feels like not a single sound, vibration or overtone is accidental. As if she is sculpting the sound meticulously as it hovers above the piano. I am always in awe of her mastery.
Schubert was for a long time one of the most underrated composers, I'm very happy that more and more of people are discovering his talent and genius, but that make me think how many other great composers lay there forgotten by the time for different reasons, with beautiful pieces we maybe will never hear and appreciate.
immer mal wieder höre ich andere Interpretationen zum Vergleich- und doch komme ich immer wieder hier her zurück. für mich bleibt sie die innigste, einfühlsamste. unübertroffen.
I just know that feeling, when you are playing, and you are just caught up in it and lost in the magic of the music, and the world suddenly seems small and comforting for a moment, and it is heavenly, that feeling. I yearn for it more and more as I learn to feel with my fingertips, and see with my ears, and hear with my heart. Thank you Khatia, for love.
The most glorious piece of music I have ever heard, tears streamed from my eyes, this lady plays from the soul. Truly staggering and without equal, Khatia Buniatishvili is a living legend.
She plays sublimely. And she always takes you by surprise. What a wonderful gift she has. Of her generation, she stands out for me... always willing to take risks and, god forgive, never giving a routine performance of anything. This is mesmerizing. Thank you for sharing it.
I would like to thank all of those Mothers who instilled a love of music in their children. We can all see and hear what wonder and joy these musicians bring to the world. Khatia brings me such joy that I can't wait to get up in the morning and listen to her once again. So ... to the Mothers who made their children practice all of those hour, to the makers of such wonderful pianos, to RUclips and to Khatia Buniatishvilli , Thank You
Welch unbegrenzte Gnade und Liebe muss Gott dabei überkommen sein; als er dieses Herz zum Schlagen brachte .... Khatia - . Die Musikwelt dankt deinem Schöpfer.
I listen to it frequently. It still is one of the most beautiful pieces of music; to listen to the way this incredibly talented pianist plays it never fails to move me.
I have fallen in love with Khatia just listening to her express her inner soul through her music and she'll never know who i am. That is how she touched me with her music. She's an angel.
She's so deep when is playing! It's like the notes are coming from her heart😢😢. And this Schubert's impromptu is a real masterpiece! It can take us to the holy heaven! Thanks for sharing this lovely moment ❤
That was beyond perfection Khatia! No one could possibly perform that piece any better than this! Your touch is brilliant, full of fire but gentle as a summer breeze in the soft areas. Schubert would be very, very pleased to hear his composition played on this grand level. Thank you so much Khatia for this unforgettable recital. I just loved it!!!
The music she plays is never trivialized. Not only does she know it well but treats it as if it is sacred. She may be the most accomplished pianist performing at this time.
Deep tenderness and power, submitted to the piano with high virtuosity. It is not for nothing that Khatia Buinatishvili is considered one of the best pianists in the world, today.
It's the way she connects with the piece - the expression on her face, the calmness one gets from her interpretation, that part of what she plays that words can never do justice to describe - that makes one agree, without a doubt, that even Schubert would be smiling in heaven to hear his work being played here so phenomenally on a Steinway. Many thanks, Khatia.
QUESTA È LA KATIA CHE PREFERISCO !!!Lei Si ESPRIME attraverso il cuore, niente acrobazie o tecnicismo visto che questo improvviso di Schubert è una preghiera , e la grande Katia riesce a renderla sommessa seppure forte nell'intensita' del suo Misticismo. È una grande, grandissima interprete che mi auguro continui ad essere sempre ricca di immaginazione e di profonda interpretazione....dote che ormai......sta scomparendo ....... per lasciare spazio a musica fatta di tanta ,troppa " cerebralita'". Grazie Katia per tutte le emozioni che mi hai regalato🌠
Every time I hear Khatia play I fall in love with her all over again. The notes and timing are one thing but the strength that each note gets is what makes her genius. I've got to say that Khatia is easily the best pianist that I have ever heard. Khatia is honoring every one of us with her dedication to the nuances. She is drop-dead gorgeous on top of it all.
I am truly amazed at this woman. She has an immense talent. I imagine she must put in countless hours of practice, but how she plays and the sort of mystical channeling of the composer of each piece she plays is the stuff of magic and ethereal realms. Only music can evoke such feelings and only true musical geniuses can pull it off. Khatia is surely one of the best at it
I've always thought Schubert is a hugely underrated composer, this piece tipifies this, it has everything, pathos, drama, feeling, virtuosiry and its not especially well known, but its wonderful and this rendition is just beautiful!
This performance is so very beautiful on so many different levels (the score, the heart felt execution, the instrument, the setting, and the musician). The world needs more of this! Much respect…Thank you!
Так сыграть прочувствовать душой это великое произведение . На столько возвыситься над суетой под силу только избранным великим профессионалам. Браво!!!!!!!!
People would ask what are the differences between Khatia's piano playing and other female or male pianists. Well, If you just listened to a CD, it's okay. But if you viewed on RUclips, watched her and any other pianists playing the same concerto, you'd immediately notice the differences between them; not just a little bit but a lot. Khatia let you understand and experience more of the lyrics of this concerto, allowed you to know more about those composers when they composed those works, not just by her intoxicated body language and expression. She was actually completely immersed in every note and the music that made her complete. She was completely melted in it, talking with the composer and his concerto. You'd become more understanding and more passionate to his emotions when he composed this concerto. Khatia made it become more alive, more vividly colorful. And don't overlook the fact that when she played that night, she obviously caught cold with some light runny nose, so you saw that she asked the conductor to give her a handkerchief to wipe her nose. But didn't you notice, once she start to play, once her fingers touched the keys, all the cold symptoms were immediately disappeared, the music and what she played, actually comforted her. The other thing that amazed me by Khatia is (was) that almost every concerto or piano piece she played, she almost never paid too much attention to the keyboard, almost never looked at those keys. When the camera opposite the piano took her images, sometimes you couldn't even tell if she's playing, but in fact she was. That's what the difference between her and most of the other female or male pianists and how naturally superior to others. Her virtuosity gave us more opportunity to know better about every piece of music. It'd become a poem, a poetry, a love story, a romance.... that's not possible by just listening to or from a CD. She'd not just playing it, she's talking to you and to herself at the same time, she's telling you a wonderful story. Because she herself IS THE MUSIC and all the composers were fulfilled by her!
Ίσως επειδή σ' αυτή της την παρουσία δεν φοράει ξέκολο φουστάνι !! Δεν παύει όμως να είναι υπέροχη όπως πάντα.΄ Ακόμα λένε πως υπέροχος είναι και ο χαρακτήρας της όπως λένε αυτοί που είχαν την τύχη να την συναναστραφούν. Μπράβο της !!
J’aime son doigté, sa grande sensibilité. Tout me plait dans son jeu musical, ses yeux fermés, sa tête en rétroflexion son sourire radieux et enfin ses cheveux en broussaille. Son interprétation musicale est digne des grands interprète tel Ashkénasi, bref je l’écoute sans m’en lasser. Quel plaisir pour mes oreilles!
Beautiful tasteful and emotional musical performance with nothing "overdone". As an aside, I love the way she maintains her posture and focusses on putting the emotion into the music itself , refraining from the excessive gyrating and gesticulations which many pianists resort to now.
Schubert's piano Impromtus are some of the most beautiful piano music written in the Romantic Era in my opinion. It's the subtly of the melodic development that makes them so stunning and this viruosi radiates confidence, beauty, poise, and almost actual total embodiment of what she's playing. Remarkable.
Découverte magique d'une artiste fabuleuse. Son talent et son génie, allié à sa beauté naturelle devient fatal au fur et à mesure de ces divines représentations. En tant que musicien, guitariste et compositeur depuis plus de 30 ans, je reconnais la force et la puissance reconnue des pros. Humble, au toucher pianistique exceptionnel, cette âme d'une sensibilité remarquable est au sommet des pianistes. Merci madame Khatia Buniatishvilli .
Where has she been all my life?! I JUST discovered her music this weekend and I'm 6 hours into listening. I'm hooked for life! Khatia is simply amazing, and mesmerizing. Brava!!!
Thats the Spirit ~Really? I generally don’t respond to comments like this, but this was totally uncalled for. Obviously, I know Khatia did not write this music and it is her interpretation of it. Don’t be a hater all your life. Geesh.
I have listened to this hundreds of times. I can’t hear or detect any mistake and the performance is truly perfect. I will likely listen hundreds of more times.
2 and half yrs since i listened to classical music.i stop listening because our jack Russell listened to it on my knee.watched this video this lady has bought me to it.i cry for my dog jessie and because of her playing beautiful music.
One prime example of why there is so much more than being able to play a lot of notes really fast and/or loud, for one to be able to play piano beautifully. This beast isn't just hard to play because there are a lot of notes, but because of how relaxed, delicate and lyric it should sound. And she nails it!!!
Kept in style of Franz Schuberts’ poetic romantic spirit yet a warm touch and the sound of Buniatishvilis’ hands in this recording of true musicianship
Sometimes, some benevolent God falls in love with a human being and gives him special gifts. This happened to Khatia Buniatishvili, who is not only a brilliant pianist and a beautiful woman, but also got the divine touch, that ability that only a few have, to make everything they do special.
@@hugomikaelsson4055 Her gorgeous 'Ständchen' performance, through which I discovered her, is so unbelievably disruptive that I'm almost sure it was some kind of sabotage attempt, perhaps with some competitor in the audience or something. Doors banging and all, things dropping on the floor, hard to imagine as many 'accidents' coming together in a single performance.
Schubert is one of the few composers who can move me and stir up emotions that are so deep within me. It is so sad he died at aged 31. What a tragedy for Classical music to have him die so young. He could have composed so many more pieces for us to enjoy had he lived until at least age 50.
We will never know how that will sound cos recording wasnt invented during Schubert's era. Thank you Schubert for your incredible compositions. I hope you can see how many people all over the world appreciate the beautiful Music you left us with. RIP Schubert.
Kathia, Yuja Wang, Alice Sara Ott, Martha Argerich, Valentina Lisitsa, Helene Grimaud and many others. Thank you for your music!! What a splendid time to be alive!
@Alexander Scriabin I totally agree, but imagine if the comment was : "Alfred Brendel, Sokolov, Lang Lang, Fazil Say, Barenboim, and many others" would you had the same remark in an opposite way? I think it's not a bad intention to name only pianist if the same sex, even if it's on purpose, it's not a mark of something mean I think.
I have just seen and listened to her other concert and she had altered my mood, so I think she must have something for making us feeling her music so deeply. I love her. She is able to put all her body, mind and soul playing these oeuvres.
une grande pianiste nous apporte la perfection la preuve est là que s'est sublime de part une belle mise en scéne ou l'art du travail musical bien fait comme toujours merci
SCHUBERT un genio que con su temprana partida nos privó de quizás cuantas obras maestras como este impromptu que de hermoso que es soporta versiones como esta.
L'écouter et la regarder, à la fois stoïque et imprégnée d'une telle musicalité.. elle est extraordinaire. Une artiste exceptionnelle et rare. Elle sera cet été au violon sur le sable à Royan et j'y serai !
Exquisite heavenly piece by Schubert masterfully played by Khatia and definitely one of favourite renditions of it. I’ve listened to many pianists play this sublime piece yet Khatia takes it to another level. She’s really making herself one with the music and putting her soul into it, I’ve found a bit of heaven. Thank you ❤️
Yes. My favorite piece by my favourite most romantic composer, delivered more masterfully than I have ever heard it played. I try myself to reproduce it's true beauty, melancholy and passion, yet listening to such a breathtaking rendition by this beautiful pianist, simply tells me of the thousands of hours of practice I have ahead of me.
Dear Khatia, Thanks for entering the divine dimension of high music for us--with its raptures and its infinite hopes--and reporting through your soft-gentle, modulated touch on the keys. More than resurrecting this music, you seem to reveal its eternal reality. It's deeply healing to hear it through your accomplished and pure filter.
At the face of it it might appear like histrionics - in reality she is immersed in her music and is one with the piano. Now in my middle adulthood I feel Katia is a gift to humankind. During my youth I have listened to several pianists of their times. Katia is among the better performers of ALL TIMES. @Katia I take u as a role mode and my guru for my learning and practice 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🙏🏻🌺🙏🏻🌺🙏🏻🌺.
In an age of space travel, and wireless communication, this type of accomplishment is truly amazing. I am glad that I stopped by to listen to this performance.
I've heard a million different versions of this exact piece and this one by far is the best. I'm sure it's going to stay that way. I love the interpretation, I love the flow. This is exactly how it should be played.
A magical and elegant interpretation. All the parts fit together smoothly like a clockwork. Schubert's composition and you together bring the music to life. Great, Khatia!
We used this piece at my beloved mother's funeral just 3 days ago to accompany a slide show of photos of her life from a baby with her parents to a child with her 3 siblings, to a school girl, to getting married, to her having her 5 children to having her grand and great-grandchildren into her old age, dying aged 97 after many moves to many places including Algeria during its terrible war of independence in the 1950s - a whole lifetime in just over 6 minutes of music.

So sorry for your loss
Your story touches my heart. I hope your mother lives forever in your loving memories. Also I am certain your mother now is in her Creator's place, in absolute peace and tendernrss.
Thankyou. I know she is there for "in my Father's house are many mansions" John 14 2

There is such total power and control in her playing. It feels like not a single sound, vibration or overtone is accidental. As if she is sculpting the sound meticulously as it hovers above the piano.
I am always in awe of her mastery.
Yes. Its a cliché, but she becomes the music.
We're so fortunate to be able to listen to such beautiful music. Most people in the world will never have the opportunity.
She breathes Schubert. I feel in another world. Thank you Khatia.
I had the exact same reaction - she is breathing the music!
Perfection. Depth. Beauty. Intensity. Subtlety. Pain. Pleasure. All of those are in this and Khatia delivered this exceptionally.
Totally agree
Schubert was for a long time one of the most underrated composers, I'm very happy that more and more of people are discovering his talent and genius, but that make me think how many other great composers lay there forgotten by the time for different reasons, with beautiful pieces we maybe will never hear and appreciate.

"I yearn for it more and more as I learn to feel with my fingertips, and see with my ears, and hear with my heart."
That was beautifully put. Continue your quest for the sublime, my friend.
The most glorious piece of music I have ever heard, tears streamed from my eyes, this lady plays from the soul. Truly staggering and without equal, Khatia Buniatishvili is a living legend.

No audience!!! Sooo fantastic!!!! No one is disturbing this perfect Sound!!!!!!!!! Its like Angels Wings!!
Wonderful piece of music, it sounds like a deep prayer. Schubert was a very devout and sensitive man.
Non ne parlons pas de priere par pitié mais plutôt d'un cri d'amour pour rendre hommage
I feel like crying when listening to her performances. And she is so stunningly gorgeous.
I love that she hardy moves. ALL her effort is in portraying the emotions through her hands!
I listen to it frequently. It still is one of the most beautiful pieces of music; to listen to the way this incredibly talented pianist plays it never fails to move me.

You said it very well Ralph and I agree with you.
@som Slovaak Judge not, and learn to be kind please.
@som Slovaak what if he likes his mom's basement?
What huge depths of feeling she conjures up, yet how modestly and openly she shares those feelings with us. Thank you Khatia.
Beautifully put.
A good description of Schubert himself
She's so deep when is playing! It's like the notes are coming from her heart😢😢. And this Schubert's impromptu is a real masterpiece! It can take us to the holy heaven! Thanks for sharing this lovely moment ❤
That was beyond perfection Khatia! No one could possibly perform that piece any better than this! Your touch is brilliant, full of fire but gentle as a summer breeze in the soft areas.

@@lilikaamore2123 the bad thing about that video is poor audio quality and audience. But yes i think horowitz did better
It amazes me that many, many times she closes her eyes while playing!
The music she plays is never trivialized. Not only does she know it well but treats it as if it is sacred. She may be the most accomplished pianist performing at this time.
Kathia sensitivy can only be described as Tenderness! Wonderful. Total commitement to the music she plays....
Rev. Stephen A. Cakouros ... I totally agree, music lives and breathes through Khatia’s fingers.

Possibly yes. With Juga Wang not far behind. Khatia is Wonderful!
@@walkingphotos I agree! I'm seeing her for the first time. Wonderful playing. Such soul.
Deep tenderness and power, submitted to the piano with high virtuosity. It is not for nothing that Khatia Buinatishvili is considered one of the best pianists in the world, today.

But even if I turn the screen away to read comments her interpretation is still wonderful.
True, she's sweet and melancholic, this piece needs that, sweetness and melancholy.

Schubert is looking down at you and crying over the beauty of your sensitivity......you are indeed one of the ''Chosen''
Katja plays like a dream. She takes me off any stress with this piece.
Великолепное исполнение прекрасной музыки.Очень чувственное, тем более в исполнении столь симпатичной женщины, браво !
I can understand the way she feels and what she wants to say through her music. She makes the piano sing so heavenly...
I've always thought Schubert is a hugely underrated composer, this piece tipifies this, it has everything, pathos, drama, feeling, virtuosiry and its not especially well known, but its wonderful and this rendition is just beautiful!
Schubert is my favorite composer. All of his pieces are absolutely beautiful
"typifies" - the same 'type'
schubert isnt underrated he's generally considered one of the greatest composers ever
Why on earth would you think Schubert as underated. ???
Dans « Pensée des morts » Liszt lui rend un profond hommage.
This performance is so very beautiful on so many different levels (the score, the heart felt execution, the instrument, the setting, and the musician). The world needs more of this! Much respect…Thank you!
She has such an intuitive way of being one with her instrument. Absolutely beautiful.
Absolutely lovely, soulful Schubert, played with so much feeling by Khatia.
Thank you, Schubert and Khatia.
There's no pomp, no circumstance. Just a deep connection with the music.
Так сыграть прочувствовать душой это великое произведение . На столько возвыситься над суетой под силу только избранным великим профессионалам. Браво!!!!!!!!

so you saw that she asked the conductor to give her a handkerchief to
wipe her nose. But didn't you notice, once she start to play, once her
fingers touched the keys, all the cold symptoms were immediately
disappeared, the music and what she played, actually comforted her. The
other thing that amazed me by Khatia is (was) that almost every concerto
or piano piece she played, she almost never paid too much attention to
the keyboard, almost never looked at those keys. When the camera
opposite the piano took her images, sometimes you couldn't even tell if

her and most of the other female or male pianists and how naturally

story, a romance.... that's not possible by just listening to or from a

I just love tis woman. Always awesome..never a bad performance! I listen to her almost everyday. So glad I discovered her!
Sometimes, some benevolent God falls in love with a human being and gives him special gifts. This happened to Khatia Buniatishvili, who is not only a brilliant pianist and a beautiful woman, but also got the divine touch, that ability that only a few have, to make everything they do special.
No audience = No coughing. Yay! Excellent performance. Perfect piece for her. I love the intensity when she plays.
Yes me too..When i saw there is no audience, i clapped my hands
Agreed, her rendition of "Ständchen" that's available on youtube is all but ruined by the audience. I felt sorry for her. She played her heart out.
@@hugomikaelsson4055 Her gorgeous 'Ständchen' performance, through which I discovered her, is so unbelievably disruptive that I'm almost sure it was some kind of sabotage attempt, perhaps with some competitor in the audience or something. Doors banging and all, things dropping on the floor, hard to imagine as many 'accidents' coming together in a single performance.
Me too! She interprets so very well.
Omg yes! I didn’t even think of that. No distracting echo either, come to think of it.
Schubert is one of the few composers who can move me and stir up emotions that are so deep within me. It is so sad he died at aged 31. What a tragedy for Classical music to have him die so young. He could have composed so many more pieces for us to enjoy had he lived until at least age 50.
Very true!! And Khatia brings out the very essence of his soul!!!!!!! We are blessed!!!!!
@@spiramus the only one who can play this with perfection is still Schubert himself.
We will never know how that will sound cos recording wasnt invented during Schubert's era. Thank you Schubert for your incredible compositions. I hope you can see how many people all over the world appreciate the beautiful Music you left us with. RIP Schubert.
Thank God he lived and wrote this magic down on paper so that it could be revivified millions of times over.
He was pretty F ing good and so prolific to die at just 31 yrs only!
Like the wind across a moor...and ocean-deep longing in the music. This feels rather special.
I follow her since 6 years. SUBLIME AND PURE!❤
Favolosa artista E SENZA LEGGERE LO SPARTITO, TUTTO A MEMORIA E' STRAORDINARIO! Davvero un raro talento, come lei ce ne sono pochi!!!! La adoro!! 🍬🍬☕☕
Kathia, Yuja Wang, Alice Sara Ott, Martha Argerich, Valentina Lisitsa, Helene Grimaud and many others. Thank you for your music!!
What a splendid time to be alive!
Sí! Así ES!!
KegPatcha Ya, Sure, Yabetcha!
why do you only thank female pianists
@@bjornegan6421 why not 🙃
@Alexander Scriabin I totally agree, but imagine if the comment was : "Alfred Brendel, Sokolov, Lang Lang, Fazil Say, Barenboim, and many others" would you had the same remark in an opposite way? I think it's not a bad intention to name only pianist if the same sex, even if it's on purpose, it's not a mark of something mean I think.
I have just seen and listened to her other concert and she had altered my mood, so I think she must have something for making us feeling her music so deeply. I love her. She is able to put all her body, mind and soul playing these oeuvres.
@Dimitri Fugue what you're really saying: "penis comedy NOW"
une grande pianiste nous apporte la perfection la preuve est là que s'est sublime de part une belle mise en scéne ou l'art du travail musical bien fait comme toujours merci
You all are spreading so much joy. Thank you for being wonderful!
SCHUBERT un genio que con su temprana partida nos privó de quizás cuantas obras maestras como este impromptu que de hermoso que es soporta versiones como esta.
L'écouter et la regarder, à la fois stoïque et imprégnée d'une telle musicalité.. elle est extraordinaire. Une artiste exceptionnelle et rare. Elle sera cet été au violon sur le sable à Royan et j'y serai !
When the music arrives into the soul, only can express the true piano sound.
Thank you very much.
Bravísimo.
Exquisite heavenly piece by Schubert masterfully played by Khatia and definitely one of favourite renditions of it. I’ve listened to many pianists play this sublime piece yet Khatia takes it to another level. She’s really making herself one with the music and putting her soul into it, I’ve found a bit of heaven. Thank you ❤️

I totally agree, quite a mesmerising performance, so beautiful. Thank you Khatia
Yes. My favorite piece by my favourite most romantic composer, delivered more masterfully than I have ever heard it played. I try myself to reproduce it's true beauty, melancholy and passion, yet listening to such a breathtaking rendition by this beautiful pianist, simply tells me of the thousands of hours of practice I have ahead of me.
Dear Khatia, Thanks for entering the divine dimension of high music for us--with its raptures and its infinite hopes--and reporting through your soft-gentle, modulated touch on the keys. More than resurrecting this music, you seem to reveal its eternal reality. It's deeply healing to hear it through your accomplished and pure filter.
At the face of it it might appear like histrionics - in reality she is immersed in her music and is one with the piano. Now in my middle adulthood I feel Katia is a gift to humankind. During my youth I have listened to several pianists of their times. Katia is among the better performers of ALL TIMES. @Katia I take u as a role mode and my guru for my learning and practice 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🙏🏻🌺🙏🏻🌺🙏🏻🌺.
She is as refine as the music. So much talent and so much beauty. I´m moved....
My personal favorite performance of this master piece, ever! Her state of connection with the music is on the highest level.
Very good indeed, very near of the Horovitz' one, for me the best in youtube. Cheers
Schubert's tragic early death cheated humanity out of at least 30 more years of masterpieces like this Impromptu.
Everything God created is perfect just the way it is. "He made everything beautiful at its time" (Holy Bible, Ecclesiaste).
Khatia Buniatishvili è una pianista straordinaria!
O, music, you great universal unifier. I bow to you.
She plays with her whole emotion in the piece naturally without any acting as if.... Great player!!
Khatia Buniatishvili is the best for ever and ever
She makes every note a work of art - and she pays with a depth of feeling that is truly wonderful. Thank you Khatia for such magical music.
In an age of space travel, and wireless communication, this type of accomplishment is truly amazing. I am glad that I stopped by to listen to this performance.
The passion in her positioning at the piano is so profound and the music that results is sublime. She must be in another world when she plays,
Il pleut ,si le ciel pleure ,à vous écouter tout n’est plus que douceur. Merci Madame.
Emily, I think she is of another world.
The incredible precision of the human body and mind, soft and beautiful yet energetic and dynamic , amazing ❤️
I have discovered this amazing pianist now! In these crazy days of Covid and world's caos! Thanks for this music!
I've heard a million different versions of this exact piece and this one by far is the best. I'm sure it's going to stay that way. I love the interpretation, I love the flow. This is exactly how it should be played.
A magical and elegant interpretation. All the parts fit together smoothly like a clockwork. Schubert's composition and you together bring the music to life. Great, Khatia!
Just looking at all the comments and views it just shows how music really does bring us all together
She plays so we'll. Timeless music and never ending. Like heaven.
