I may not be original, but Beatrice is a true gift to the music world, is the greatest musician of our generation and is among the best Chopin interpreters. I have played and listened to these "etudes" hundreds of times and this monumental rendition is amazing for the amount of hidden details (yet all there in the score) that are pure poetry. And... what an incredible genius Chopin was!! When he composed the Op. 25 he was about the same age as Beatrice in this performance...two kiddies, creating and recreating timeless masterpieces of mankind...
Anche se non ci sarebbe nulla da aggiungere a quanto hanno già detto gli altri ascoltatori, resta il dovere di rendere omaggio a questa straordinaria giovane artista, che qui a mio parere è riuscita a fissare un'interpretazione-capolavoro: sorprendente, magica, dalla quale è difficile staccarsi, e per la quale è anche difficile trovare un termine di paragone, sia pure cercando fra i nomi più grandi ...
Nella sua interpretazione si avverte una profonda conoscenza dell’espressività del Canto e mette la sua tecnica al servizio della Musica con la emme maiuscola
Vorrei aggiungere soltanto le parole usate da Robert Schumann a proposito dell'esecuzione degli Studi op. 25 da parte dello stesso Chopin, perche mi sembrano adattarsi singolarmente anche all'interpretazione di Beatrice Rana, dispensandoci così da ogni altro commento : ... sia citato sopra tutti [ gli altri Studi] quello in la bemolle maggiore [ il primo], ch’è più una poesia che uno studio. Sbaglierebbe chi pensasse ch’egli [ Chopin] facesse udire chiaramente ognuna delle piccole note; si sentiva piuttosto un’ondulazione dell’accordo in la bemolle maggiore, rinnovato di tempo in tempo dal pedale, ma attraverso le armonie si distinguevano melodie dai suoni ampi, meravigliosi ...
One of the most beautiful interpretations of the Etudes my modesty has ever heard (and have heard many). Romantic, fluent, singing, dreaming... A phantasy from an outer world. Maestra Beatrice Rana is awesome, among the greatest pianists...
A perfect pianist! She plays impeccably and with heart! Amazing technique and amazing sound control! An absolute outstanding pianist and she is Italian as me! 🇮🇹🎹🇮🇹
Beatrice is so sensitive and transformed everything between the sheets of the very sensitive Frederic Chopin! Usually I avoid listening to any artist playing the whole op 25 or op 10 in a concert. Beatrice is on of the very few artist who can perform without bothering the audience! Stay healthy Beatrice! And don’t ever change your attitudes!
She is truly extraordinary. Once in a generation, an artist of this calibre emerges and reaches the top of their profession through sheer artistry and consummate musicianship.

In my humble opinion Beatrice Rana and Zlata Chochieva are two of the finest young female pianists gracing the concert platform today. Both give outstanding accounts of these challenging masterpieces in their individual ways.
Speriamo che presto potremo ascoltare anche Schubert interpretato da lei, per esempio la D 960, op. post. Con il suo suono magico, pieno di sfumature, chi meglio di questa fantastica pianista?
She clearly ranks with the greatest of the past....Stupendous technique,but always in service of the composer.Sincere,honest,totally convincing interpretation.My favourite since the 50s Arrau recording.
I was fortunate to hear Beatrice Rana perform these live last year. She's an immense musician, brave and insightful enough to take her own line on the familiar. I feel she's almost reinvented these technical studies as a single, coherent, suite - a fully-fledged concert work. Thank you for posting. (While I'm here, why is 'Music in this video' wrong?)
au Cliburn 2013 elle aurait dû être à la première place.....un technicien sans âme lui avait été préféré....(Michelangeli à Bruxelles avait été classé 7ème ! (Rubinstein membre du jury )n'avait rien entendu de la qualité de jeu de ce jeune artiste,ce qui est quand même un comble...)Béatrice Rana est de cette trempe et bien plus ....elle crée de l'émotion .La musique redevient véritablement chant, qui était rappelons-nous,la passion de Frédéric Chopin.
Si Kholodenko est un technicien sans âme, vous êtes un imbécile sans oreilles. Et la comparaison avec Michelangeli est tout aussi stupide. Une première place bien méritée, bien plus mature que Béatrice Rana, vingt ans.
Absolutely magnificent. Such depth and feeling. Truly inspiring! The best i have ever heard of these etudes. This is how it must sound in Heaven i believe. Thank you x 1000, 1000! . Greetings from Maria Rosolemos(i am a pianist living in meiringen, switzerland) P.s.(29.9.22) i was at your concert last night in Ascona. There were many truly beautiful parts - much of the Skrjabin, the slow movrments of Chopin and Beethoven - truly very touching and beautifully played from the heart. But i would like to give you a constructive critic for the faster , louder parts : the accoustics in this large church respond mercilessly when one plays beyond a certain speed and dynamic. Unfortunately - that which was most probably coherent and clear in a much smaller room- was sadly often a jumble of sound without space to breathe and be clearly heard. . You need to take the tempi A LOT slower, in order for the beauty of this very complex music to come across. Many years ago i played Schubert's 'Wanderer Fantasie' in a large church in Rome. Fortunately i had a colleague pianist to advise me at the rehearsal a day before. We realized that i had to reshape my playing completely! - i remember then at the concert playing about HALF THE SPEED i was used to, and articulating very clearly. I believe this was the answer to the accoustical situation. Dear colleague - i sincerely hope this feedback helps you on your musical journey through life. You have a magnificent talent, you are a greatly dedicated person and you are able to touch the souls of many, many people in a most positive way with your music. I hope to meet you personally one day. Warmest greetings from Maria Rosolemos(musician/pianist living in Meiringen/Switzerland). May God bless and keep you always.
She really is refreshing to listen to. Miss Rana reminds a lot of Pollini’s style with the etudes. Great technical ability and such a level of precision that few can match. But perhaps miss Rana has the advantage of a more feminine touch which is allowing her to make the melody come out more, where many seem to loose it as they rush.
Her performance reminds me more of Arrau´s 50s recording.More human than Pollini´s.And the same sincerity,seriousness,structural clarity,and range of colors as Arrau.
Eh, Piernico! Italia es un gran país. Además de esta maravillosa pianista -seguramente entre las tres mejores de su generación-hay mucho para enorgullecerse siendo italiano. Con respeto te lo dice este argentino que se crió en un país donde la mitad de la gente es de ascendencia italiana. Tuve dos abuelos nacidos en Italia.
Davvero solo in questi casi? Il grosso problema dell'Italia è la mancanza di patriottismo della gente che "gli altri Paesi son sempre migliori" Nel continente Italiano da 25 secoli succedono cose meravigliose, tanto che nessun altro Paese può avvicinarsi alla concentrazione di bellezze paesaggistiche, artistiche e culturali che ci sono qua, e che certamente son molto più determinanti della corruzione e la mafia
I hadn't seen such virtuosity since Khatia Brunatishvili interpretations of Chopin. For those who liked this I advice les soeurs Labeque (labeque sisters, Marielle and Katia) interpretation of Philip Glass, and also Camille & julie Berthollet' s Vivaldi Four seasons (at the violin)
I admire Rana greatly and feel she did best in nos. 2, 11 & 12. I sense, however, that she is still finding her way through these ultra challenging pieces. I don’t think she should commit them to record just yet. Live with them for a number of years, put them aside, forget about them, then come back to them. Anyway, my favorite in both sets of Études, which many also consider a benchmark, remains Backhaus. And I wish Argerich had played them and committed them to record.
@@rigel48 Yes indeed. That said, I am enjoying tremendously Rana’s new recording of the Op 25 Etudes and the 4 Scherzi. While Backhaus remains my benchmark, Rana plays remarkably well and uniquely, and with remarkable virtuosity. She makes wonderful music out of these challenging pieces. Can’t wait for her Op 10, whenever she decides to record them.

yes..absolutely! without a doubt 2 phenomenally gifted pianists.
Left and right hands have different but meshing personalities. Amazing!
Can't remember anything more beautiful!
Spettacolare, una magia
Transcendental ....resonating with and in the language of Chopin
I Liked it a lot, melodic approach rather than just technical :)

Она,-священнодействует!
И я полюбила её за это.
В ней музыка живёт!

I have just read that she has made a commercial recording of these and Chopin's 4 scherzi, to be released in September.
She is indeed amazing. A very tender touch of the fingers. Last not least: una bella pianista! :-)
Intriguing!! Brilliant!! :-))))

la dernière étude est d'une beauté sans pareille....
Kholodenko surely is not a soulless technician. His Rachmaninoff 1st Sonata is just magic, in my opinion they should have shared the first prize
Si Kholodenko est un technicien sans âme, vous êtes un imbécile sans oreilles.
Et la comparaison avec Michelangeli est tout aussi stupide.
Une première place bien méritée, bien plus mature que Béatrice Rana, vingt ans.
BRAVISSIMA!!! ...
