And the 3d movement is magic! There are no words how to described this matured, clear and tough performance. Ivo sounds like a composer. We heard a few musicians like Michel Beroff or Alexis Weissenberg who set so called "standards" during their times. I never heard this composition as outstanding like this! Thank you Ivo!
Genius! Absolutely overwhelmed. Seems got recover from slump. I've never imagined that he play work like this kind of music, relatively modern music by the way.
Ivo is a legendary and immortal artist! I'm wondering that Stravinsky "petrouchka" never was heard when the maestro was young. Especially the 2nd movement is so lyrical . He let the piano sing. It's like painting. And Ivo worked out the essentials out of that masterpiece because it sounds like an Orchestra! Great job! Thank you so much for uploading this!
Perfectly acceptable as regards the speed;( all right there are some miscalculations later). The trouble these days is that many players play pieces like this much too fast, and then it becomes the norm -see comments below -some misguided.
MUSIC FIRST (without any exhibition, how obvious from you, Ivo :-) It's a pure essence of this 'handbreaking' piece, playing much more like an epic tragedy, resp. trilogy (you can hear the distinctive 'roots', just like that from the Rite of spring) than the usually stupid way (including Yuja, Khatia and many others :-) P. S. For the 'closeminded' people: there's (almost) NOTHING in the score...
Really weird, chaotic but also some moments of intuitions....Even playing like this, Ivo is needed to punch us in the face with all his "Ivocentricities" 🤔
The gift that keeps on giving - but this may take the cake. But there always will be those who think this is genius - and then they will say the Carnegie Hall live performance and this are both great. One of the true mysteries in taste.
Can we maybe agree on a nuanced position? Cons: pianistically often subpar/sloppy, rhythmically unstable/odd, the tempo is frequently distorted, the sound more often than not harsh/arthritic. Pros: Pogorelich is a thinking performer, as Bernstein once said of Gould. He has ideas about every line of the score, even though often weird ones. Countless phrasings here are new, stimulating, however imperfect their execution may at moments be. Personally, I'd have Pogo any day over the digitally accurate, musically predictable and intellectually braindead Wangs & Bangs, Khatias & Valentinas.
classicaloracle, yes Pollini IS reminder of bloodless “note-perfect” playing as he always is. If you can’t abide Ivo’s kaleidoscopic reading, Weissenberg and Gilels are the most outstanding “traditional” performances.
Qwerty Oh right! At his recent London recital half the audience left at the interval it was so bad.......... the whole evening was an embarrassment............still, carry on believing if you want to.
+l'aigle vole seul This reminds me of Brahms, who fell asleep at the first execution of Liszt's sonata.. Great musicians can be understood in the future
Half of the audience left because they were sheep following somebody that had no idea what Ivo is capable of! Why does Ivo have to play and sound like who? Long live Ivo and all free spirits!
Another eccentric and completely unnecessary rendering of a Masterwork by this Pogorelich.Full of mistakes,ignoring composers indications etc.The ultimate narcissistic ego tripper. .Terrible.
He has always struck me as being as having a very idiosyncratic interpretive style (and not in a good way) and he just brutalizes this piece...also, I think his technique is not what it was during his younger years...I don't know what Martha Argerich was thinking when she called him a genuis...I don't hear it, even when he was in his prime

Gilles is also worth a listen for a more poetic take .

Only very few in the world can play this like he does. He is back - one of the greatest of all time !
He is back! What a recital program!
Truly a great version of Petrushka!He's telling a story full of imagination!
Same here. I hear one story told by multiple voices ! And there's silence, and it breathes.
Ivo is the one who makes the Petrushka a Petrushka.
Pogorelich looks a lot like Rachmaninoff in the picture.
just fantastic! bravo mr pogorelich
Pogorelich is coming back from the dead! The way will be long but should this be the case all other pianists could just retire!

...only a GENIUS as interpreter is able to complete understand (or even overhelm) THE OTHER GENIUS as composer - that's it!
Иво играет как маг и волшебник...Браво ! Любовь и уважение !
Love it! Thanks for uploading!

Удачно выбранный темп Вот это и есть Петрушка. Спасибо, Ивушка Люблю❤️❤️❤️
It's nearly an orchestral composition as The Pictures at an Exhibition of Modeste Moussorgsky !
Каждый ЗВУК словно
ВОЛШЕБНЫЙ мазок
кисти на полотне
великого художника.

This is not Ivo in his prime. Let’s be honest. Not like when he played Gaspard. Still love this guy though.
1000 Bravos!
Genius
It's not Petrushka, but I like whatever this is. It keeps surprising me.
"....It's not Petrushka" Says who?
Unfassbar ❤
❤
BEST PETRUSHKA EVER
Really weird, chaotic but also some moments of intuitions....Even playing like this, Ivo is needed to punch us in the face with all his "Ivocentricities" 🤔
Look for Gugnin’s Petrushka. Unreal
Koho dnes oslňuje technika????Obsah je priorita❤

Again and sorry guys but I can't stand it: the second movement is breathtaking! Brilliant!
Played so slowly this is a parody of Petrushka.

That’s pretty fair.
My favourite Petroushka is Gilles . Not always the most accurate, but scores high on poetry, going beneath the notes.
je proste originálny a svoj❤❤❤❤❤
Perhaps we all need a reminder of how this is supposed to sound! ruclips.net/video/DILOJo8KykA/видео.html

I think that Stravinsky would be ANGRY if he would hear this! 😤
I suspect he would have been!
Listening again thought I’m struck by some things which - on their own terms- are rather magical .
The absolute most ridiculously odd performance of this piece I have ever heard. I admit it has a certain charm to it's quirkiness.
drama.....
Embarrassing, dis-jointed, rhythmically all over the place. Stravinsky must be turning in his grave. Sorry.
Humanity is not ready for Pogorelich. You are so close-minded...

finally I could feel what happens inside the piece and it is gigantic.
Merciless brutality. The ugliest fortissimo it's possible to hear on the piano.
I fail to see the point of his experimentation but de gustibus...
fake Pogorelich ?
+Hugo Woods Nothing fake here
You just didn't do it this time Ivo, you're far better in many other pieces.
lol
That was a fucking embarassment.Does he even like this music?
A SHAME ! What's that ???

Horror

Dance Russe......................so SLOW. NO ONE does it this slow. Even orchestras. The Horowitz tempi are more accurate.
Cserkasky does it as slow
Sucks.
Ridiculous. He is not a pianist, but a street player
