She makes it look effortless when, believe me, playing a Mozart piano concerto is anything, but. What a great performance by this pianist. Very soulful playing supported by flawless technique. Bravo!
I love Maria Joao Pires.She remains an unforgettable player of Mozart's piano concertos.I must say tears brought to my eyes when I hear from her❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
What orchestra? There is no orchestra shown on this video, only a few instrumentalists who try to look like they would be actually playing along the prerecorded music. Where is the conductor anyway? This is a big fake video and the only thing that is real in it is the music. Not any of the fake playing.
There's something very special about this woman. This wonderful video captures her genuine aura, without affectation, that has its roots in her total immersion in the music. What a beautiful example of humanity in this world of awfulness. Listen to her performance of Schubert impromptu op. 90, no. 1, sublime, transcendental beauty
You're so much right, and her genuine relation to music made that now that's she's about 80 Years old she still is a beautiful lady. Her face tells a story about how she "lives in music". Back in the years as well as now...
There are so many pianists who the world has recognized as great but I ask you, how many immerse themselves in trying to convey only the music and the composer’s voice. When you hear a performance like this you have to say that Mozart would be thrilled and enamored with such a perfect vessel of interpretation and feeling. Every phrase and nuance is carefully and intuitively caressed. This kind of music making makes me fall in love with the world again.
The best made music video on YT. The close ups, loving intimacy, closeness among these artists and love for Mozart and the 🌹 lovely, soulfull Maria, all so aligned, connected together. Thanks to all who participated to make this performance so great.and unique!!
Love those little exchanges between Pires and the bassoon player in the third movement, with those tiny smiles of enjoyment. Like musical flirting. My day was made with this wonderful performance. Thanks for posting this.
Amielvan i also love the exchanges of " musical flirting" the close ups of her beautiful face, such soulful eyes.and the sense of intimacy of the artists. Great camera work.a unique, historic video!!
What I've always loved about her playing is the sense of a natural phrasing. Nothing ever seems forced. A perfect approach for Mozart...and any composer, really.
Thank you so much. I saw this on Channel 4 and VHS'd it. The tape broke as I played it so many times. I have searched the web for years and now it's there!! Fantastic Thank you again
I must say, this video is phenomenal, and not only because of her astounding performance, but there's a certain "If Stanley Kubrick did classical music" feel to it all! LOVE IT!
Bravo, bravíssimo, Maria João Pires! Nunca me esqueço da primeira vez que a vi, no Festivak de Sintra, 1972. Sua força interpretativa e sua delicadeza são impressionantes! Muito obrigada por momentos de tanta beleza!
This must one of the finest ever filming of a classical performance. Not just great playing but so artistically conceived and executed. One can see the rapport between Maria Joao Pires and the orchestra. Compelling viewing and listening !
Yeah - I saw it on TV decades ago and it's great to see it here on RUclips. It's a pity the director missed the Maria's opening phrases in the first movement.
Bellísimo vídeo, por la maravillosa interpretación y por la originalidad del vídeo, centrado en primeros planos de la expresión de los músicos, en especial de María… Ojalá nos pudiéramos comunicar todos así, con música y gestos…
SHE is an amazing pianist in every respect.Simply love her composure & absolute professional way she moves through with such sincerity & patience until the finish.
I simply love this woman... In the most respectful way. Out of many great pianists of the world, I choose her to be my special favourite... Thank you, Maria João Pires!
The cameraman captures some really touching moments of Pires during the opening tutti. I've always found her to be very touching in general: a mixture of dignified passion, a deep thoughtfulness, and an underlying sadness.
Beautifully played. Captivating. Of course, Amadeus Mozart inspires such artists because his compositions are so gorgeous. Melodic. Dramatic and soothing to the ear and heart.
L'un des plus beaux concertos de Mozart. Je suis la carrière de Maria-Joao Pires depuis ses débuts. Ici, superbe. A titre de curiosité, j'ai comparé cette interprétation du concerto No 21 de Mozart,, qui date de 1985, avec celle de Yeol Eum Son, qui date de 2011 (concours Tchaikovsky). Une énorme différence d'approche ! La pianiste coréenne est familière avec les "son du piano" des années 2000 (enregistrement parfaitement clair, pupitres différenciées à la prise de son, interprétation très "lisible" et...très "rationnelle" de la pianiste. Une sorte de "perfection froide" qui fait un peu penser à un Mozart revu par un logiciel d'ordinateur...et auquel on ne peut rien reprocher. Ce qui me manque ? un rapport personnel avec cette musique. Les légères variations de tempo, de sonorité, de pianissimo, et de forte, bref, ce qui "signe" une interprétation vécue profondément par l'interprète. C'est ce qui transparait chez Pires, et d'ailleurs dans l'intégralité des enregistrements de sa carrière. Je note que cet enregistrement de Yeol Eum Son totalise 1 million 4 645 20 vues, et Pirès n'en a que 71021. Soit le goût des auditeurs s'est modifié, soit la manière d'aborder cette oeuvre s'est transformée. Heureusement, le nombre élevé de clics des auditeurs, en musique, n'est pas le seul critère d'appréciation.
Bien dit, je suis en complète accord avec Vous, aussi merci de avoir la courage, car maintenant on peut pas dire rien 😊, d’ailleurs je façais la recommandation de la interprétation de M. João Pires dans le vidéo de Yeol Son peut-être que je arrive à faire écouter d' autres approches ...
En fait il y a deux choses qui n'ont rien à voir entre eux. d'un côté il y a l'interprétation (l'approche personnelle de l'interprète de l'oeuvre voir de l'auteur), de l'autre côté la réponse du publique. Mais pour faire une conclusion (si ça était le cas) il faut bien évidemment tenir compte des différences de tous genres qu'y sont concernées (musicales, personnelles, d'enregistrement, culturels, etc). Comparer pour comparer n'a aucun sens...
Ridicule comparaison... De plus, votre sensibilité est discutable. D'autant qu'elle ne tient pas compte du contexte (Yeol Eum Son est en 1/2 finale d'un des plus prestigieux concours avec le stress et la fatigue nerveuse et physique que peut engendrer une telle épreuve qui dure longtemps !). Vos propos montre surtout une subjectivité très personnelle (voire une partialité). Qui vous dit que le style de Mozart n'était pas plus proche de l'interprétation de Yeol Eum Son que de celle de M.J. Pires ? (ce que j'ai tendance à penser). Les raisons se basent sur des faits et situations objectives... Les pianos de l'époque n'étaient pas "Forte" et se rapprochaient davantage du clavecin que du piano moderne (1985, 2011... peu importe, ces deux dates sont proches et l'évolution des pianos faibles en 25 ans). Mozart composait donc en conséquence. On sait tous que son côté "divin" intègre la légèreté et la distinction des notes et des sons ce qu'arrive à restituer formidablement la Coréenne (dont la culture de base est si différente, ce qui ajoute à son intelligence et sensibilité d'interprétation et compréhension de Mozart). Son 2e prix (derrière Trifonov au sublime et déjà légendaire toucher de velours, mais devant S.J. Cho, futur vainqueur du concours Chopin...) récompense heureusement son interprétation magistrale de précision et de légèreté propre à Mozart... et le jury ne s'y est pas trompé !). Son interprétation à vos oreilles d'un style "froid d'ordinateur" montre surtout vos limites de palette en sensibilité ! J'aime cependant bcp M.J. Pires qui joue avec cœur, nuance et sensualité... qui se ressent ici aussi. Ce que Mozart possédait sans doute aussi. Mais M.J.Pires joue avec une interprétation davantage XIXe que XVIIIe... sur un piano du XXe, d'où la différence qu'elle n'a peut-être pas pensé à compenser. C'est joliment interprété mais je trouve celle de Y.E.Son plus proche musicalement du XVIIIe, donc plus juste...
Absolutely lovely. Such an unusual, very artistic video, in black and white which in this case gives more depth, also beautiful close ups of the musicians.it is so clean, just pure contact between Mozart, the musicians and oneself. Check 22.23, her first smile, then the musician with the large wind wooden instrument lightens up, there is an open smile, open admiration and affection for her. Her face changes too, the re seems to be a playful sort of exchange of affection between them. Beautiful human moments! Her thoughtful, lovely face in the beginning is lovely to watch too, what beautiful and soulful eyes too. She is a marvellous, sensitive pianist, i love her Mozart piano concertos the best. She moves me deeply. Thank you for posting!
It seems that each musician is maintaining contact with Mozart and they are totally engaged in a spiritual relationship with the soloist . What a glorious and unique performance. I regret not being able to see the ensemble from an audience perspective.
Que maravillosa administración de los tiempos, he oído a muchos otros y otras intérpretes, muy buenos todos pero pero más mecanizados ella pausa perfectamente !! Gracias María por darnos este regalo !!🥰😘😘
I am 21, classical music is the reason for my breathing. Through the years I haven't had many people to share with my love for classical music-and don't get it wrong, I have plenty of friends. None just appreciate classical music the way I do. But then I thought to myself-Why should I share a gem like this? Ill enjoy it and keep it my own temple. I am a classical pianist.
I'm glad to know I am not alone in this feeling. Some things (great music) are better to share only with others who "get it", or at least want to, or not at all. Sometimes it's just better to "keep it in our own temple". Well said. Thanks. And I am also a pianist. 78.
I am also an amateur pianist. It is a love since childhood. I can enter a big saloon full of people, but if there is a piano there, this attracts my attention more than anything. And if the lid is open... oh my god! It is like a magnet.
What an amazing way to shoot a film of a piano concerto! In almost black and white with a slight pink tint towards the top of the screen sometimes. Unique. A brilliant pianist, and you rarely see her hands. Everyone is dressed in white, seemingly. The camera focuses on faces, and in each shot, there is no one in the background - just an off-white wall behind the musician. Mostly one musician at a time. You are forced to study the emotions on their faces and match them with the sublime sounds. The effect is to make you listen more intently. You never see the whole orchestra. Never more than three musicians at any one time. So strange, and truly wonderful.
Thank you so so much for posting this video from my absolutely preferred pianiste. It is beautiful to listen to her so exquisite playing and understanding of music, as well as observing her.
It takes a moment to realize that Ms. Pires is keeping all her emotions inside, letting them emerge through her performance. I love Khatia Buniatishvili's open expression of her feelings, and her performances as well. I love Lang Lang's expression of his feelings, and his performances, too. I love Ms. Pires' performance, and it's inspiring to watch how she puts all her energy into presenting the performance. Great job by all the musicians, and the director of the film.
After enjoying this beautiful recital I will not be able to find fault with Mozart in not permitting the virtuoso pianist to retire from the stage! Thanks, just like a lonely traveller gratefully remembering the dreaded yet short-lived lightning when he lost track in pitch darkness!
Otro de mis conciertos de piano favoritos, de la mano de una de las más grandes intérpretes de Mozart. Delicada, sútil, grande Maria . Gracias por compartir éstos videos
Like first light at dawn, this music opens the eyes to new promise and all the wonders of nature. Evocative of belief in the beyond and powers beyond observation, this concerto tugs heart strings, pulls at the nostalgic, and wakens dormant loves, lives and wonders!
Yours is a most articulate and evocative description, very well written and said. I wish I could copy it to send it to a young friend who's depressed, and who might be encouraged to listen to this music, as your words would help him.
She is a national pride for us, the Portuguese People! Ela é um orgulho nacional para nós, Portugueses! I think she did the best, retiring from stage to appreciate her life. Penso que ela fez bem ao retirar-se dos palcos a tempo de apreciar a sua vida. She is the best Mozart player that I know. Ela é a melhor intérprete de Mozart que conheço. She is quite well. Ela está bem. Thank you very much, ADGO! Muito obrigada, ADGO!
fantástica presentación. lamentablemente produce una mezcla de felíz recuerdo y tristeza por el retiro de esta maravillosa pianista que con su interpretación es capaz de resaltar toda emoción.
Quelle merveille ! Je découvre cet enregistrement que je n'avais jamais vu. J'ai une bonne partie des enregistrements (audio) de Maria Joao Pires, la pianiste que je préfère, en particulier sur Mozart et Schubert, mais c'est un véritable délice de la voir jouer ce merveilleux concerto de Mozart. Merci, Merci Maria pour cet inoubliable moment et pour l'ensemble de votre oeuvre ! Bravo également à l'ensemble qui l'accompagne, tout à fait à la hauteur.
Well there are more female pianists in this world! Not to forget Haskil/ Alicia de Larrocha (who played a lot of Mozart as well) , Lilly Kraus, Ingrid Haebler and many more. But certainly Pires is very special in many ways.
Pires played the Beethoven 3rd at Verbier this summer (2023), and it was wonderful. She is even more beautiful now, than she was in this video. Such a gifted talent!
My earlier comment has vanished, so Ill add just that.the piece is divine ,the orchestra is excellent .. and Maria plays as she looks. I have loved her since first seeing this very performance and, finding it here, .i find too that my love remains..undimmed MW.
Very interesting video, because it shows the cooperation between soloist and instrumental groups and communication between the groups- which is one of the interesting traits in Mozarts instrumentation.💗
I love how she presents herself in such an elegant and dignified manner and doesn't lean into overexaggerated facial expressions. I find too much facial expression to be distracting.
She makes it look effortless when, believe me, playing a Mozart piano concerto is anything, but. What a great performance by this pianist. Very soulful playing supported by flawless technique. Bravo!
I love Maria Joao Pires.She remains an unforgettable player of Mozart's piano concertos.I must say tears brought to my eyes when I hear from her❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I have never been so enthralled to watch a pianist and orchestra play!

Beautifully conceived and executed. No comment could really do this justice.
Une interprétation d'une beauté et d'un naturel insurpassable. Merveilleuse Maria Jao Pires dont la beauté sereine est également magique.
So beautiful video.. feeling grateful watching this video today.
Maria Pires is the best performer of Mozart 's works in the world!!!!!)))))
plus Schubert's piano works
One of my favourite pianists, sensitive and humble.
Hasta hoy la descubrí. Me encanta. Viva la música clásica. Me conmueve totalmente.

Beautiful.... Singing, playing, joking, mourning, rejoicing: all what Mozart's music is about - expressed in a magnificent way
Simplicité, talent, beauté de l’interprète 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏: plaisir!😊😊
Each and every touch of her fingers on the piano keys is a Godsent. I just dearly hope, pray and wish that she plays forever & ever.
Sorry to hear she's retiring. She is one of the greatest Mozart players of our time.
Don´t be sorry. I also admire Maria João Pires very much.
Well, today is the 12th of February 2021 and I've just watched her livestreaming from Gulbenkian. Mozart's Piano Concerto No. 20. ♥️
She's back on stage
Elle a repris les concerts et récitals, pour notre plus grand bonheur !!
Many thanks Maria for being back and feeding our spirits.
The best made music video on YT. The close ups, loving intimacy, closeness among these artists and love for Mozart and the 🌹 lovely, soulfull Maria, all so aligned, connected together.
Thanks to all who participated to make this performance so great.and unique!!
Absolutely. ❤️
Cette femme est un miracle! Merci Maria! tellement merci!
This is absolutely a perfect performance from this beautiful woman.
Maria João Pires illuminante. Prodigieux. Merci.
Exquisite Mozart playing both soloist and orchestra Beautiful music making and also the composition is one of his best😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊

Great camera work.a unique, historic video!!
Not necessarily flirting … Just playfulness. They both equally love the music and the process of music.
What I've always loved about her playing is the sense of a natural phrasing. Nothing ever seems forced. A perfect approach for Mozart...and any composer, really.
Sensibility! She is a great Artist...
this is what mozart demands
balanced clear
Quelle sincérité et quelle "tendresse" ! Bravo géniale Maria.
Thank you so much. I saw this on Channel 4 and VHS'd it. The tape broke as I played it so many times. I have searched the web for years and now it's there!!
Fantastic
Thank you again
Well, aren’t you the lucky one! 🎶🎶
Such a delightful rendition of Mozart's; enhanced by the jolly, playful repartee between Maria and other instrumentalists!
Such a beautiful performance. Heavenly
An angel playing piano!
i love her,she is a wonderful pianist and apparently a wonderful human being, I saw her twice at Carnegie Hall and it was a fantastic experience.
I must say, this video is phenomenal, and not only because of her astounding performance, but there's a certain "If Stanley Kubrick did classical music" feel to it all! LOVE IT!

Maria is so touching, so special, so much into the music! But I admire all the musicians who play with her, so dedicated! Delightful 👌👒
One of the most beautiful concertos ever!

You’re genuinely blind. There’s nothing but absolute love and involvement with the music. The music has sorrow, but not her.
She had lots of sorrow it does show in her eyes, so profound.

What a pity. The concert ist cancelled... Hopefully she will get well soon.
Otro de mis conciertos de piano favoritos, de la mano de una de las más grandes intérpretes de Mozart. Delicada, sútil, grande Maria . Gracias por compartir éstos videos
Muito bem filmado o que valoriza a leitura da música para além da excelência da interpretação e da beleza deste concerto.
Like first light at dawn, this music opens the eyes to new promise and all the wonders of nature. Evocative of belief in the beyond and powers beyond observation, this concerto tugs heart strings, pulls at the nostalgic, and wakens dormant loves, lives and wonders!
Yours is a most articulate and evocative description, very well written and said. I wish I could copy it to send it to a young friend who's depressed, and who might be encouraged to listen to this music, as your words would help him.
Yes, go on my dear, and thanks !
Yes, so beautifully said, Philippe. She is magic, fascinating, touches my soul deeply both with her lovely presence and playing.
She is a national pride for us, the Portuguese People!
Ela é um orgulho nacional para nós, Portugueses!
I think she did the best, retiring from stage to appreciate her life.
Penso que ela fez bem ao retirar-se dos palcos a tempo de apreciar a sua vida.
She is the best Mozart player that I know.
Ela é a melhor intérprete de Mozart que conheço.
She is quite well.
Ela está bem.
Thank you very much, ADGO!
Muito obrigada, ADGO!
At least we have records of her performances. She will never be forgotten.
Pelo menos temos registros de suas apresentações. Ela nunca será esquecida.
Tx Adrian that you made this happen (with M. J.Pires)
Quelle beauté, quelle spectaculaire photographie, quelle musique, quelles/ls artistes…époustouflant !!!
Sublime performance by all!
fantástica presentación. lamentablemente produce una mezcla de felíz recuerdo y tristeza por el retiro de esta maravillosa pianista que con su interpretación es capaz de resaltar toda emoción.
extraordinary ...
Quelle merveille !
Je découvre cet enregistrement que je n'avais jamais vu.
J'ai une bonne partie des enregistrements (audio) de Maria Joao Pires, la pianiste que je préfère, en particulier sur Mozart et Schubert, mais c'est un véritable délice de la voir jouer ce merveilleux concerto de Mozart.
Merci, Merci Maria pour cet inoubliable moment et pour l'ensemble de votre oeuvre !
Bravo également à l'ensemble qui l'accompagne, tout à fait à la hauteur.
Muchas gracias, María Joao, es una interpretación sublime, a mi gusto es una mezcla entre lo divino y lo humano, no se vaya nunca🌷
A sudden surprise in the candenza of 1st movement for recalling Beethoven’s 3rd concerto… to be honest I’m in love with it
Her eyes... They smile :*-)
Thanks for this video. Love it.
Ótima intérprete de Mozart. Muito segura, elegante e sensível.
Какие одухотворенные лица ! ВОЛШЕБСТВО.........
Well done Maria João!
What a beautiful woman. And the playing is a match. Love the 80s big hair.
@ADGO thank you for sharing this exceptional and valuable video. I enjoyed very much.
Great performance and so far the best female pianist on earth!!!
Well there are more female pianists in this world! Not to forget Haskil/ Alicia de Larrocha (who played a lot of Mozart as well) , Lilly Kraus, Ingrid Haebler and many more. But certainly Pires is very special in many ways.
It's hard for me to appreciate this because I want to see her hands pretty much at all times.
...Beautiful !!!
bravissimo.¨!!!!!
nossa querida MJ PIRES, sempre no nosso coração
Bella en todos los sentidos María Joao Pires.
Son visage exprimé le bonheur absolu.
C est magnifique.
Bravo Madame
Bravo Mozart
Pires played the Beethoven 3rd at Verbier this summer (2023), and it was wonderful. She is even more beautiful now, than she was in this video. Such a gifted talent!
Ottima esecuzione bel filmato, musica sublime!
Absolutely magnificent! I wish we could see her hands as well :)
L 'immenso esiste in questa sublime musica
Toujours un grand plaisir avec Mozart. Merci
le plus beau, le plus pur bruit que je desire entendre une derniere fois avant que l on ferme mon cercueil
My earlier comment has vanished, so Ill add just that.the piece is divine ,the orchestra is excellent .. and Maria plays as she looks. I have loved her since first seeing this very performance and, finding it here, .i find too that my love remains..undimmed MW.
Very interesting video, because it shows the cooperation between soloist and instrumental groups and communication between the groups- which is one of the interesting traits in Mozarts instrumentation.💗
I love how she presents herself in such an elegant and dignified manner and doesn't lean into overexaggerated facial expressions. I find too much facial expression to be distracting.
