Tak takhle úchvatnou, strhující, horoucí interpretaci jsem ještě nikdy neslyšela. Nádhera, síla, hluboký smutek, víra, láska, i naděje a radost... Myslím, že tenhle mladičký umělec je nejen úžasný virtuos, ale i velký duch. Ať ho Bůh provází a chrání.
The orchestra sounded amazing. The videographer took so much care to showcase each and every performer and you can see how much of their heart and soul went into it. Moreover, it is blatantly obvious how passionate Alexander is while performing and how proud he is of his brilliance at the end of each and every performance. He is so talented and flawless; a true honor to witness. I am so looking forward to the years ahead of listening to him perform. This young man is deserving of all God’s blessings.
Yes, agree. As to the video recording, the Frankfurt orchestra has for quite some time, been paying virtually as much attention to video direction as they do to audio recording. Many orchestras have full video/audio production facilities.
Malofeev is not only brilliant, as you've already noticed, he's very modest and humble. He is not proud of his performance, I believe, he's merely enjoying the moment as a little kid. Not that there's anything wrong with being proud of yourself, he just never showed that quality in previous performances or interviews.
@@alanpotter8680 Apparently he was a replacement and had less than 1 days notice. He should be overjoyed after such a performance. I have not heard a better one.
I heard him perform the Rach 3 in person several years ago. A fine performance then, but even more astounding is this performance. His maturity in interpretation and making Rachmaninoff's music take a more profound form is delightful! I look forward to watching/listening to more of his future endeavors!
It seems that your name is Alexander. I believe you will do well in Germany as well. Thank you for your always delicate, beautiful and rich performance❤I am also grateful for the harmony with the Frankfurt Orchestra❤
Насчёт "beautifully" мне не понять, но мне дал бог услышать совсем иную, я считаю, гениальную, трактовку Сергея Рахманинова в исполнении Евгения Могилевского лет 50 назад, где-то в 1968 году. С тех пор ничего более стОящего я не знаю. Кстати маэстро Могилевский осуществил эту запись вместе с маэстро Кириллом Кондрашиным! Сам же Рахманинов для меня композитор "Namber One".
@@issakariet558 Господин Малофеев играет замечательно! Но потрясения я не почувствовал. С исполнением же маэстро Могилевского я познакомился сначала через грампластинку, а потом он приехал в мой город. Студенты местной консерватории в огромном количестве шли на тот концерт и я слышал постоянно, что этот Могилевский произвёл в третьем концерте Рахманинова фурор в их головах. Это было потрясающее событие! Никто так раньше не трактовал Рахманинова. И трактовка эта производила восторг. Превзойти Могилевского и Кондрашина? Не знаю, может быть когда-нибудь в будущем? Всего Вам доброго, господин Issakariet!
Extraodinary beyond briiliance. Yes let me echo he is an embodiment of Rachmaninov. A plethora of emotions that come through whilst he plays undoubtedly one of the best Piano concerto No. 3.
Very interesting, I checked and it's often used as a brilliant sometime improvised part. Alexander seems indeed very free in this part. Thank for highlighting this!
I suggest that you listen to Weissenberg's rendition ; in my humble and honest opinion , that is how it should be played , with unreal clarity , precision and passion .
Mi sono soffermata più volte ad ascoltare Alexander Malofeev ,quale capolavoro ha costruito architettonicamente, creando un'interpretazione di incredibile forza emozionale , un potere creativo inimmaginabile veramente da togliere il fiato😢, non ho mai sentito qualcosa di così bello,di così fantastico....creato dal suo cuore come se le mani di Alexander andassero ad abbracciare il cuore,l'anima di chi sa ascoltare la sua bellezza.Che dono meraviglioso sei per chi ti ascolta e per il mondo della vera musica .Grazie dal profondo del ❤
Александр БОЛЬШОЕ СПАСИБО!!!🎉🎉🎉. Слушал много раз знаменитый Концерт 3 Рахманинова в прекрасном исполнении. Вы МОЛОДЕЦ. Мне уже 82, казалось бы уже все в прошлом, особенно в наше непростое время. Но благодаря таким как Вы хочется жить! Здоровья Вам и долгих счастливых лет жизни!❤❤❤
Мне немного меньше (всего 78 лет), но я тоже слушал этот концерт вживую много раз. Последний раз в концерте лауреатов Первого Международного конкурса им. Рахманинова в исполнении Александра Ключко (разделил 1 премию с Иваном Бессоновым). В этом концерте Иван играл второй концерт Рахманинова Исполнение Александра очень хорошее. Наблюдаю за ним с первого конкурса Гранд Пано Компетишн, где он разделил первую премию с молодым грузинским пианистом Сандро Ниебиеридзе
It should be noted that Alexander had 20 hours notice to fill in for the originally scheduled pianist. I'll bet much of the audience didn't know what they had in front of them until that first mini-Cadenza.
It occurse to me, since the wind section of an orchestra here in milano went on strike without notice not once but twice this season and the guests soloist that were scheduled to play piano concerti wonderfully performed some unprepared sonatas and chamber music, that in such unexpected circumstances sparkles the great musicianship thats too often taken for granted.
Could there be a blend more European than this of a German orchestra, a French conductor of Armenian origins and two Russian geniuses, the composer and the current interpreter? Ii can only congratulate all of you, true artists, who don't shy from proving that in art, chiefly in music, every difference is in advance overcome. Bravo! And thank to all of you.
Once again Russia shows its grandeur. The composer, the composition , the musician/pianist at their very best. Thank God for Russian music!!. And, Alexander Malofeev will be/IS one of her finest pianists!
I am blown away!!! This man was on fire!!He is in a class of his own.And he was clearly born to play Rachmaninhoff.The elegance,the musicality,the passion,the tenderness....bravo,bravo,bravo!!!!I'll be listening to this over and over and it will still not be enough!It's nearly 2 o'clock in the morning,but I'm right and ready for Rach 2....played by Alexander,who else??
Superbe interprétation de ce jeune pianiste extrêmement doué ! Il ne se trémousse pas dans tous les sens comme certains, seuls ses mains et ses bras travaillent ! Un don indéniable et ENORMEMENT de travail pour arriver à un tel résultat . Bravo, bravo et ...encore bravo ! Longue vie à vous , Alexander ! Votre grand art enchante le public .
ピアノとオケの協奏が筆舌に尽くしがたいほど美しく、この苦難のときにMalofeevがドイツオペラ座で演奏した歴史的事実、Malofeevの涙に心揺り動かされました。Malofeevさんならびにフランクフルト放送交響楽団のみなさま、視聴の機会をいただけたこと感謝いたします。どうもありがとうございました。Thank you very much to every music lovers.
Оркестр очень, очень приятен, весьма хорош! Спасибо дирижеру и оркестру! Александру спасибо за труд! Мне неблизка эта трактовка концерта, но спасибо, что Александр в принципе есть😊❤
Shame on Orchestra Symphony de Montreal for canceling concerts with this marvellous artist, just because of his nationality. When and why should a young pianist has anything to do with politics? It's already unimaginably difficult to make a career in classical music nowadays and they literally don't make enough compared with how difficult the job is. I wish I could have the pleasure of listening to him live one day.
@@jeffreyanderson1851 I am happy to hear he's being kept safe. He's a treasure for world to enjoy and find such peace and happiness...I do each and every time he performs. God protect bless you Dearest Alexander.
This rendition is brilliant: simple but powerful and sincere and sophisticated. It's nearly 2 in the night but I couldn't stop until the end. It was like breathing with you. Thank you!!
he has some unbelievably good performances in his teen and pre-teen years. Go check them, if you haven't. The Grieg concerto, the Saint-Saent 2nd, random etudes in his pre-teens... Amazing stuff.
He is one of *___theee___* masters of all classes and worlds --- so for example *_he_* should be the next overall world leader after Putin, Selenski, Biden, Netanjahu and and and !!
Undoubtedly, Alexander is the embodiment of real "Rachmaninov". This performance is the best Piano concerto No. 3 I've ever heard. The sweat or tears that flow around 40:00 must be the catharsis of satisfaction of a successful performance. A state beyond art!
Tears rolling down Alexander’s cheeks at 40.00 are pure joy at Rachmaninoff’s music when at the finale, the music turns to triumph and joy! What a composer! What a pianist!
Take the genius of Rachmaninoff's music and the phenomenal performance by this young man, and magic is bound to happen... and it did, big time. The finale had me smiling and tears in my eyes at the same time. Bravo Alexander, bravo!
40:01 A few tears! One cannot imagine what all this young man has been through in the past several months. He's not only performed at many venues all around the world but he is away from his home country, now living in Germany, away from his beloved family and close friends for many months, and most likely has no idea when he'll see them again. Yet, he gives us an absolutely fantastic performance of the Rach 3. Thank you, Alexander, and thank you to this wonderful orchestra and conductor, and thank you for sharing it with the world.
Hallo, da kann ich Ihnen nur voll zustimmen! Ein sehr mutiger junger Mann, der zu seiner Überzeugung steht und sie auch ausspricht. Ich wünsche ihm für die Zukunft alles, alles Gute und dass er bald seine Familie wiedersehen kann! ❣❣❣❣❣❣❣❣❣❣❣❣❣❣❣❣❣❣
One can only imagine the strong feelings coursing through Sasha - now that he’s separated from his loved ones - while playing his beloved Rachmaninoff❤️
Great! He plays this with such ease. His hands remain totally relaxed, no unnecessary movement. Lots of Russian soul there. Beautiful playing. He looks a little like Shaman.
The scene of tears coming out of Malofeev's eyes at the end of the last movement is incredibly sensitive 40:03 . Malofeev is a genius! And the hr-Sinfonieorchester film director deserves an Oscar!
I'd like to share a story: after growing up with a love hate relationship with the piano (I was one of those children forced to learn an instrument growing up), Rach 2 was what brought me back into my love for classical music. I discovered it when I was around 15 yrs old and from then it became My concerto-I loved it so dearly that I could not let go of it. I was so attached that I had a very specific way that I liked it played but that changed when I happened upon Alexander's performance when he was 14 (!!!). He opened my heart and mind from my restricted view. Years later, now in my twenties, I happened upon Yuja Wang talking about Rach 3 when I suddenly felt I needed to listen to it even though for years, Rach 2 had been the only one of the 4 concertos that I loved. Luckily for me, Alex's performance above was in the suggested videos; and, having had such a good experience with when I saw his Rach 2, I immediately clicked on it. And my... how I was moved to misty eyes by his performance (very hard to do, as I cannot cry easily even when pieces move me so much my heart hurts). It may not be perfectly accurate but no other interpretation from any other pianist (including himself) makes me feel the way Alex's performance here is able to. I watched so many others after but none could compare. It is this performance of his that made me fall in love with Rach 3 and finally helped me let go of Rach 2 and move onto the bigger. I haven't been this passionate about a piece in almost a decade. That is the power of Alexander Malofeev, everyone!
If you like Rach 2 and 3, you MUST listen to the astonishing performance of Rach 1 (Krystian Zimerman soloist). You'll fall in love with tears again, I promise you. The first two movements each feature jaw-dropping cadenzas-and the 2nd movement is about the most beautiful music ever performed.
Under Alexander's hands, Rachmaninoff's masterpiece becomes a prophecy of our times. Here is every human emotion; furious rage at the madness and horrors of futile war; grief and unashamed tears for its helpless victims; despair that such evil should dishonour a country so loved. But here too are dreams of home and longing for loved ones and memories of laughter and smiling faces. Then, breaking through, again and again, is a rising crescendo of determination and hopefulness, heralding a bright and peaceful, joyous future. Alexander, you have bared your soul for us in this piece - and we are with you, brother.
@@mariaceciliacarrenocanas7710 Sadly, but courageously and at a bitter personal cost, Alexander has raised his voice in the defence of a people fighting - equally courageously - for its survival. If longing for a just and peaceful ending to this totally unprovoked invasion of a sovereign state is partisan, then so be it. I'm too old (83 this month) to be a social media person, but I can access You Tube, and look forward to Alexander's next musical offering - and hope it won't be long in coming!
When an artist with this technical accuracy competence and flair, tells you something new about a piece with which you have lived for over 45 years, then you know you are witnessing the performance of a maestro. It is not simply that this is a bravura performance, it is. But the nuance, subtlety, shades, variation in tempi, the brilliance of articulation, the lyricism, the sparkling right and left hands, the passion, musicality and the respect for the instrument, obtaining whatever level of volume he requires without being in danger of damaging the piano (unlike another more senior Russian pianist whose allure is as big a mystery as the sex of the Loch Ness Monster) are breathtaking And yet he proves his artistry is on another level - injecting new ideas, new thoughts and evoking novel emotions and appreciation in the listener. This was the greatness of Horowitz. And here that spirit is given life again - One could cite very many examples in the first movement - but, for me, the almost catalcysmic cascade which introduces the second movement before resolution to that beautiful lyrical theme - only to be followed by more articulated darkness again resolved to lyric beauty - is picked out with extraordinary artistic vision. Open mouthed in awe and appreciation.
@@raffigorski6850 yes indeed I am. But probably the greatest live video of this concerto is Horowitz Mehta. There too you will find all kinds of error. Horowitz rejoiced in these as this is what live music making is all about. And he was right (even when he was wrong!)
I thoroughly enjoyed a great performance as did most people who commented on it. For those who did not, as they say in the Highlands of New Guinea , “ Problem belong them”.
I’ve heard and seen what I thought were the finest performances of this piece, but young Malofeev is another level entirely. Impeccable technique, marvelous phrasing, unbelievable energy and transcendent delicateness, and the passion only a Russian can have for this music. Rarely does this warhorse bring me to tears, but Malofeev did just that at several points, no more so than the magnificent restatement of the soaring theme in the coda. I hope to hear him live some day.
@@gerrylewinson9918 I just bought tickets to his performance in San Francisco on March 22, 2023 ... I'm traveling over 5,000 miles round trip just to see him because I missed his performance in Ravinia (Chicago) in July 2021 due to Covid cancellation ... but I'm 83 years old and time is my enemy so I cannot miss this chance.
@@gerrylewinson9918 Bring him flowers ! It was not allowed in Amsterdam Oct. 1st. 2022 but I sat front row and did it anyway. He gave me a very bright smile !
@@gerrylewinson9918 Right around the corner, north of San Francisco by less than an hour, Alexander will do a recital for a crowd of 100 people in the middle of an art gallery. An unparalleled opportunity to be with him up close. The 222 in Healdsburg. I expect he will perform Moonlight, Weinberg #4 Sonata and the Scriabin and Rachmaninoff he played at Verbier
Absolutely amazing! BRAVO Alexander Malofeev! He played with such incredible phrasing and delicate fingering and pure love, heart, and soul so that Rachmaninoff himself surely would have stood to applaud!!
Unreal!!! He just blew the lid off the crayon box!!! Infinite colorings and mastery! I will be listening to this over and over to really get an appreciation of it...absolutely beauty and beyond!!!
When I look at Alexander, I see a magnificent and talented pianist, a gifted human being.... who happens to be Russian. And I say as an American "Thank GOD for Russian composers and pianist." Such as Alexander Malofeev for they are a gift to man kind.
He has played this concerto many times before, with different orchestras, so he knows it well. I have heard nearly all of them on line, however, this here is the best I have heard him play it. The cadenza was extraordinarily well played.
❤😢 l was not strong enough in my praise for this great performance! A worthy successor to the great Van Cliburn! A fantastic musical achievement at 21!!
I saw Cliburn play at Tanglewood, and the feelings I felt with his performance is the same (if not better) than what I feel when Alexander caresses the piano keys…
I and my wife visited this concert with hr-Sinfonieorchester Piano: Alexander Malofeev ∙and conductor : Alain Altinoglu. Alexander Malofeev played instead of Evgeny Kissin who was sick. Alexander Malofeev is a great pianist!!
Yes, thank you for mentioning this!! And Alexander had less than 24 hours to travel to Frankfurt from another country and prepare for the concert. He is amazing 🤩
This is the most beautiful Rach no. 3 that I have ever heard. Bare none. The technical demands of the piece fall off Alexander with ease. But where he really excels is in the interpretive. The story he lays out from beginning to end is a compelling unified whole. He plays the finale exquisitely so that the one note climax is the true pinnacle of the piece. Just amazing.
Я снова здесь. Душа в пятки уходит. Трудно описать восторг... За что нам такие подарки!? Пересидентов может быть много, а Александр Малофеев - один. Пожелаем ему здоровья богатырского и счастливой человеческой Судьбы.
The embodiment of a great soul is not only in his/her talent and artistry but also in his/her humility. Both of these qualities are luminously in evidence here along with the tremendous spirit of the orchestra and conductor. A really wonderful spiritual experience. Many thanks to everyone.
❤It was a very happy and valuable experience to listen to the performance of Rachmaninoff's Piano Concerto No. 3, which I first heard in the movie Shine, by a Russian pianist whom I fell in love with for the first time in my life❤
"Из всех наслаждений жизни, одной любви музЫка уступает, но и любовь - мелодия." А.С. Пушкин Слушать такое исполнение - счастье! Александр волшебник! 😍❤
I have commented before and yet I am compelled to comment again. Alexander, your PASSION as an artist is beyond my words to express!! THANKS for being you and sharing so much of yourself!!
First five second and I know I'm at the right place. Delicate, sublime music from the first moment till the last one, and the top of that my favourite young pianist, Malofeev. Rachmaninoff most complex and difficult piano concerto was red, adapted and interpreted beautifully and this is a huge huge thing, represent highest music values. Until now it's been 5 years 'I've been happily following this first class orchestra. Heavenly event.
To say this is the best I’ve heard seems mere words, but there are no words to describe what this performance makes me feel. Bottom line, it speaks to me like no other.
Год назад+35
Einmalig! Ein Stern des 21.Jh. So viel Energie, Kraft und Gefühl . Rachmaninov verdient genau solche Interpretation. Schade, dass ich so alt bin und nicht mehr lange diese Herrlichkeit hören kann. Aber Sie müssen einmal in Himmel kommen und dann hören wir Sie wieder
Ich verfolge Alexander Malofeevs Entwicklung seit gut 10 Jahren. Er ist DER aufgehende Stern am Pianistenhimmel! 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍 Wir werden noch viel von ihm hören. Die Kadenz ist der reinste Wahnsinn! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
I was 17 when I first heard Rachmaninov ' Concerto #3, after hearing Vladamir Horowitz on Record. I was an instant fan, and have loved it, especially hearing Alexander play it, with his interpretation. Bravo to all of you involved❤. Kay Mohr
We have been graced and humbled by this incredible very exquisitively beautiful work of art by a legend in the making-🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 Rachmaninov:3 / Alexander Malofeev ⚡️🦅⚡️🦅🌹⚡️🦅⚡️🙏🏾👵🏽✌🏾
Great to watch a current performance by this young giant of the piano. He has a unique way with Rachmaninov that I personally enjoy. He combines amazing technique, a great sense of of the scope of the music, and a rare ability to be aggressive and delicate at the right times.
I get it, those who said erratic or pace issues, comparing to Lim's performance it's not as technical perfect rendering, the symphony also supports him big times. But man, there's something about this one that moves you for reasons you don't understand. If I just let the music goes in the background without paying attention of who's playing it still always gets me, everytime .
Even the great Horowitz has technical issues with this enormous opus, there is a live recording here on YT were the finale is a bit messed up. I personally don’t care. You are so right, thank you for your insightful comment. I prefer concerts that are played with full passion to the robotic performances of some (particularly Asian) artists
There are huge number of recordings of this concerto -- This is the best. Alexander gave everything, he expressed Rachmaninoff's Music in a fascinating way full of color, technique and virtuosity. He generates an incredible energy in the faster passages Alternately, the softer passages show a tender, vulnerable side that most pianists do not achieve. His cadenza is full of confident, powerful, yet humble pianism. It was in the slow movement that he showed stunning poetic feeling wedded with an awe-inspiring virtuosity. What most impressed me is his incredible ability to play intensely and elegantly. Alexander's maturity, sense of phrasing, balance, and direction are out of this world, playing like this at such a young age it's just amazing. Bravoo Alexander
there really isn't that many recordings of this concerto lol this piece is widely considered the hardest piece to play on piano implying that this piece would have the least amount of recordings compared to any other piece.

I am old, but feeling hope for the future after hearing Alexander and Yunchan play.
Thank you so much for making my life better! 😊
Rachmaninoff is all about 'dreaming the impossible dream'. rather die trying than living a mediocre life.
Fuck Geo-politics! This man needs to be heard everywhere!

Absolutely. This is art, not politics

Оркестр очень, очень приятен, весьма хорош! Спасибо дирижеру и оркестру! Александру спасибо за труд! Мне неблизка эта трактовка концерта, но спасибо, что Александр в принципе есть😊❤
Shame on Orchestra Symphony de Montreal for canceling concerts with this marvellous artist, just because of his nationality. When and why should a young pianist has anything to do with politics? It's already unimaginably difficult to make a career in classical music nowadays and they literally don't make enough compared with how difficult the job is. I wish I could have the pleasure of listening to him live one day.
I absolutely agree. Music and the arts are rather a way to bring unity and love. Why is war worshiped?
Ukraine has had no benefit from its war.
@juliesheard2122 ___ ask Putin.
The war is a reason that he now lives in Berlin. His relatives live in Ukraine
Here! Here!
@@jeffreyanderson1851 I am happy to hear he's being kept safe. He's a treasure for world to enjoy and find such peace and happiness...I do each and every time he performs. God protect bless you Dearest Alexander.
This rendition is brilliant: simple but powerful and sincere and sophisticated. It's nearly 2 in the night but I couldn't stop until the end. It was like breathing with you. Thank you!!
And he is just 21 years old, what a gift to humanity.
A pure prodigy
Only 20 at this performance on Sept 15, 2022. He turned 21 on Oct 21, 2022.
... totally irrespective of nationality (Y) (Y) (Y) !
he has some unbelievably good performances in his teen and pre-teen years. Go check them, if you haven't. The Grieg concerto, the Saint-Saent 2nd, random etudes in his pre-teens... Amazing stuff.
He is one of *___theee___* masters of all classes and worlds --- so for example *_he_* should be the next overall world leader after Putin, Selenski, Biden, Netanjahu and and and !!
I must admit I have not heard it played like this ❤❤❤❤
Absolutely beautiful!! Incredible! Standing ovation!! Huge BRAVO to Alexander Malofeev, and to director and wonderful orchestra!
That guy at the end with the loud immediate “bravo” echoes what we all think 👏🏻🥃
Rachmaninov’s love child. Genius!
der applaudierende mann im grünen trikot ist der HERO im publikum. 👕🌹
I thought Lugansky was the best Rachmaninoff interpreter these times, but I was wrong. This guy is incredible.
Yun chan lim
Malofeev and Yunchan from the new generation. But still Mikhail Pletnev is the last postromantic since Horowitz died.
They are both equally good and I've hoped for a long time to see a duo of them both.
Did you hear Valentina Lisitsa?
@@grigorygusev2191 of course I heard. Not the best one, in my view. Lisitsa’s interpretations are far for academical, unfortunately.
Undoubtedly, Alexander is the embodiment of real "Rachmaninov". This performance is the best Piano concerto No. 3 I've ever heard. The sweat or tears that flow around 40:00 must be the catharsis of satisfaction of a successful performance. A state beyond art!
You can see pure jou!
Tears rolling down Alexander’s cheeks at 40.00 are pure joy at Rachmaninoff’s music when at the finale, the music turns to triumph and joy! What a composer! What a pianist!
Very intriguing. I already feel that way about ruclips.net/video/SCHg9tup9NA/видео.html&si=1r-T7yxz0FE2V-BO. Now looking forward to this one.
@mcd1722 i never noticed that until now. truly the cherry on top.
Take the genius of Rachmaninoff's music and the phenomenal performance by this young man, and magic is bound to happen... and it did, big time. The finale had me smiling and tears in my eyes at the same time. Bravo Alexander, bravo!
40:01 A few tears! One cannot imagine what all this young man has been through in the past several months. He's not only performed at many venues all around the world but he is away from his home country, now living in Germany, away from his beloved family and close friends for many months, and most likely has no idea when he'll see them again. Yet, he gives us an absolutely fantastic performance of the Rach 3. Thank you, Alexander, and thank you to this wonderful orchestra and conductor, and thank you for sharing it with the world.
Hallo,
da kann ich Ihnen nur voll zustimmen! Ein sehr mutiger junger Mann, der zu seiner Überzeugung steht und sie auch ausspricht. Ich wünsche ihm für die Zukunft alles, alles Gute und dass er bald seine Familie wiedersehen kann! ❣❣❣❣❣❣❣❣❣❣❣❣❣❣❣❣❣❣
I ca see it in Sasha’s face and tears come to my eyes. Please God protect him.
One can only imagine the strong feelings coursing through Sasha - now that he’s separated from his loved ones - while playing his beloved Rachmaninoff❤️
And I think those feelings DO show
Why is he estranged in Germany?
Great! He plays this with such ease. His hands remain totally relaxed, no unnecessary movement.
Lots of Russian soul there. Beautiful playing.
He looks a little like Shaman.
The scene of tears coming out of Malofeev's eyes at the end of the last movement is incredibly sensitive 40:03 . Malofeev is a genius! And the hr-Sinfonieorchester film director deserves an Oscar!
What a joy to see this man growing up before my very eyes and getting better and better
So emotional!
maybe it's sweat
Absolutely superb ❤❤❤ his interpretation is great 👍 😊
I'd like to share a story: after growing up with a love hate relationship with the piano (I was one of those children forced to learn an instrument growing up), Rach 2 was what brought me back into my love for classical music. I discovered it when I was around 15 yrs old and from then it became My concerto-I loved it so dearly that I could not let go of it. I was so attached that I had a very specific way that I liked it played but that changed when I happened upon Alexander's performance when he was 14 (!!!). He opened my heart and mind from my restricted view. Years later, now in my twenties, I happened upon Yuja Wang talking about Rach 3 when I suddenly felt I needed to listen to it even though for years, Rach 2 had been the only one of the 4 concertos that I loved. Luckily for me, Alex's performance above was in the suggested videos; and, having had such a good experience with when I saw his Rach 2, I immediately clicked on it. And my... how I was moved to misty eyes by his performance (very hard to do, as I cannot cry easily even when pieces move me so much my heart hurts). It may not be perfectly accurate but no other interpretation from any other pianist (including himself) makes me feel the way Alex's performance here is able to. I watched so many others after but none could compare. It is this performance of his that made me fall in love with Rach 3 and finally helped me let go of Rach 2 and move onto the bigger. I haven't been this passionate about a piece in almost a decade. That is the power of Alexander Malofeev, everyone!
...ich sage nur Kissin und Trifonov sind die Auserwählten!!!!!!
If you like Rach 2 and 3, you MUST listen to the astonishing performance of Rach 1 (Krystian Zimerman soloist). You'll fall in love with tears again, I promise you. The first two movements each feature jaw-dropping cadenzas-and the 2nd movement is about the most beautiful music ever performed.
Простите, сударыня, но Вам неизвестен Rach 3: с пианистом Евгением Могилевским и дирижёром Кириллом Кондрашиным.
Under Alexander's hands, Rachmaninoff's masterpiece becomes a prophecy of our times. Here is every human emotion; furious rage at the madness and horrors of futile war; grief and unashamed tears for its helpless victims; despair that such evil should dishonour a country so loved. But here too are dreams of home and longing for loved ones and memories of laughter and smiling faces. Then, breaking through, again and again, is a rising crescendo of determination and hopefulness, heralding a bright and peaceful, joyous future. Alexander, you have bared your soul for us in this piece - and we are with you, brother.
Согласна с Вами. Мысль о пророчестве пронзила мне душу.
nothing more to say...
Sacha is an artistic soul. You are a partisan and biased individual projecting your own prejudices and fears.
Can you specify what you mean by artistic soul?
@@mariaceciliacarrenocanas7710 Sadly, but courageously and at a bitter personal cost, Alexander has raised his voice in the defence of a people fighting - equally courageously - for its survival. If longing for a just and peaceful ending to this totally unprovoked invasion of a sovereign state is partisan, then so be it.
I'm too old (83 this month) to be a social media person, but I can access You Tube, and look forward to Alexander's next musical offering - and hope it won't be long in coming!
When an artist with this technical accuracy competence and flair, tells you something new about a piece with which you have lived for over 45 years, then you know you are witnessing the performance of a maestro. It is not simply that this is a bravura performance, it is. But the nuance, subtlety, shades, variation in tempi, the brilliance of articulation, the lyricism, the sparkling right and left hands, the passion, musicality and the respect for the instrument, obtaining whatever level of volume he requires without being in danger of damaging the piano (unlike another more senior Russian pianist whose allure is as big a mystery as the sex of the Loch Ness Monster) are breathtaking And yet he proves his artistry is on another level - injecting new ideas, new thoughts and evoking novel emotions and appreciation in the listener. This was the greatness of Horowitz. And here that spirit is given life again - One could cite very many examples in the first movement - but, for me, the almost catalcysmic cascade which introduces the second movement before resolution to that beautiful lyrical theme - only to be followed by more articulated darkness again resolved to lyric beauty - is picked out with extraordinary artistic vision.
Open mouthed in awe and appreciation.
Are you aware that he is often out of sync with the orchestra in the last movement? And he altered various chords and octaves in the 3rd movement.
@@raffigorski6850 yes indeed I am. But probably the greatest live video of this concerto is Horowitz Mehta. There too you will find all kinds of error. Horowitz rejoiced in these as this is what live music making is all about. And he was right (even when he was wrong!)
@@raffigorski6850 Always looking for the flyshit in the pepper!
I agree!! This Rach 3 is above all others. You speak for me.
your absolutely right Sir...! word for word....
I thoroughly enjoyed a great performance as did most people who commented on it.
For those who did not, as they say in the Highlands of New Guinea , “ Problem belong them”.
I’ve heard and seen what I thought were the finest performances of this piece, but young Malofeev is another level entirely. Impeccable technique, marvelous phrasing, unbelievable energy and transcendent delicateness, and the passion only a Russian can have for this music. Rarely does this warhorse bring me to tears, but Malofeev did just that at several points, no more so than the magnificent restatement of the soaring theme in the coda. I hope to hear him live some day.
At the end of the piece, Alexander had tears in his eyes. I am VERY fortunate to see him in March, 2023 -- Front row center.
@@gerrylewinson9918 I just bought tickets to his performance in San Francisco on March 22, 2023 ... I'm traveling over 5,000 miles round trip just to see him because I missed his performance in Ravinia (Chicago) in July 2021 due to Covid cancellation ... but I'm 83 years old and time is my enemy so I cannot miss this chance.
@@gerrylewinson9918 Bring him flowers ! It was not allowed in Amsterdam Oct. 1st. 2022 but I sat front row and did it anyway. He gave me a very bright smile !
@@gerrylewinson9918 Right around the corner, north of San Francisco by less than an hour, Alexander will do a recital for a crowd of 100 people in the middle of an art gallery. An unparalleled opportunity to be with him up close. The 222 in Healdsburg. I expect he will perform Moonlight, Weinberg #4 Sonata and the Scriabin and Rachmaninoff he played at Verbier
@@jonmanabimichael assuming you're still with us.... how was the performance?
Absolutely amazing! BRAVO Alexander Malofeev! He played with such incredible phrasing and delicate fingering and pure love, heart, and soul so that Rachmaninoff himself surely would have stood to applaud!!
У меня вообще нет слуха и здесь случайно выпал этот концерт, и, надо сказать, это потрясающе!
Unreal!!! He just blew the lid off the crayon box!!! Infinite colorings and mastery! I will be listening to this over and over to really get an appreciation of it...absolutely beauty and beyond!!!
"blew the lid off the crayon box" lol, love that, and i agree
When I look at Alexander, I see a magnificent and talented pianist, a gifted human being.... who happens to be Russian. And I say as an American "Thank GOD for Russian composers and pianist." Such as Alexander Malofeev for they are a gift to man kind.
If he had only 20 hours to prepare for this concert, imagine the extraordinary memory he must have.He seems to incorporate the music .Incredible!
Opera singers do this all the time.... I admit it's not exactly the same thing digitally, but muscle memory and adrenaline are paramount.
It’s incredible what the human brain can process if you work hard enough
Ему не ставили прививки с рождения и детский сад он не посещал.
Правильное воспитание и защита от Медичей ... Медицины...
He has played this concerto many times before, with different orchestras, so he knows it well. I have heard nearly all of them on line, however, this here is the best I have heard him play it. The cadenza was extraordinarily well played.
@@kenhunt278much easier to sing than the play this concerto.
I am filled with awe.
❤😢 l was not strong enough in my praise for this great performance! A worthy successor to the great Van Cliburn! A fantastic musical achievement at 21!!
I saw Cliburn play at Tanglewood, and the feelings I
felt with his performance is the same (if not better) than what I feel when Alexander caresses the piano keys…
No words. Just incredible. Out of this world!
I and my wife visited this concert with hr-Sinfonieorchester Piano: Alexander Malofeev ∙and conductor : Alain Altinoglu.
Alexander Malofeev played instead of Evgeny Kissin who was sick.
Alexander Malofeev is a great pianist!!
Malofeev is clearly the better musician! I think Kissin was great as a teenager but not so much today.
Yes, thank you for mentioning this!! And Alexander had less than 24 hours to travel to Frankfurt from another country and prepare for the concert. He is amazing 🤩
Wonderful execution! A clear, intense and mellow sound at the same time. Malofeev is a great pianist!
Alexander Malofeev...Rachmaninov wrote it for you to play! There is no better. BRAVOOOOO!!!!
you need to watch Danil Trifonov.
@@christinah.8504 meh. I want to understand what people see in him but I haven't been able to yet.
Alexander is fantastic. I just love this orchestra too.
This is the most beautiful Rach no. 3 that I have ever heard. Bare none. The technical demands of the piece fall off Alexander with ease. But where he really excels is in the interpretive. The story he lays out from beginning to end is a compelling unified whole. He plays the finale exquisitely so that the one note climax is the true pinnacle of the piece. Just amazing.
Я снова здесь. Душа в пятки уходит. Трудно описать восторг... За что нам такие подарки!? Пересидентов может быть много, а Александр Малофеев - один. Пожелаем ему здоровья богатырского и счастливой человеческой Судьбы.
The Great Alexander. Brilliant performance.
The embodiment of a great soul is not only in his/her talent and artistry but also in his/her humility. Both of these qualities are luminously in evidence here along with the tremendous spirit of the orchestra and conductor. A really wonderful spiritual experience. Many thanks to everyone.
Нет слов, браво🎉спасибо❤
Your country has given us this magnificent talent. Thanks
The sound quality of the orchestra and piano in this video is really clear. Excellent. Satisfying. Great performance
❤It was a very happy and valuable experience to listen to the performance of Rachmaninoff's Piano Concerto No. 3, which I first heard in the movie Shine, by a Russian pianist whom I fell in love with for the first time in my life❤
I love Alexander Malofeev！！！
Me too. Have bern following him for years since he was very young ❤
"Из всех наслаждений жизни, одной любви музЫка уступает, но и любовь - мелодия." А.С. Пушкин
Слушать такое исполнение - счастье! Александр волшебник! 😍❤
Absolutely wonderful! Can not praise him enough!
I have commented before and yet I am compelled to comment again. Alexander, your PASSION as an artist is beyond my words to express!! THANKS for being you and sharing so much of yourself!!
Для меня -это проникновение в глубинный океан музыки Рахманинова!До дрожи!Браво,Маэстро!
First five second and I know I'm at the right place. Delicate, sublime music from the first moment till the last one, and the top of that my favourite young pianist, Malofeev. Rachmaninoff most complex and difficult piano concerto was red, adapted and interpreted beautifully and this is a huge huge thing, represent highest music values. Until now it's been 5 years 'I've been happily following this first class orchestra. Heavenly event.
Unbelievable. Fantastic!!!! ❤❤❤❤❤👏👏👏👏👏❤🔥❤🔥❤🔥❤🔥
To say this is the best I’ve heard seems mere words, but there are no words to describe what this performance makes me feel. Bottom line, it speaks to me like no other.
Einmalig! Ein Stern des 21.Jh. So viel Energie, Kraft und Gefühl . Rachmaninov verdient genau solche Interpretation.
Schade, dass ich so alt bin und nicht mehr lange diese Herrlichkeit hören kann. Aber Sie müssen einmal in Himmel kommen und dann hören wir Sie wieder
Ooh boy that cadenza
Именно Александр исполняет непревзойденно Рахманинова. Магическое звучание, ювелирное🌹
Александр Великий.
BRAVO!!! This performance is beyond any words could ever say!!! I felt like my soul just lit up and transcended into another dimension 😂
This is so beautiful...incredible pianist ❤
Ich verfolge Alexander Malofeevs Entwicklung seit gut 10 Jahren. Er ist DER aufgehende Stern am Pianistenhimmel!
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Wir werden noch viel von ihm hören. Die Kadenz ist der reinste Wahnsinn! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Прошу ВАС, берегите себя ! Вы так выкладываетесь эмоционально,это колоссальные нагрузки на нервную систему.Пожалуйста ,дозируйтеколичество концертов!
I was 17 when I first heard Rachmaninov ' Concerto #3, after hearing Vladamir Horowitz on Record. I was an instant fan, and have loved it, especially hearing Alexander play it, with his interpretation. Bravo to all of you involved❤. Kay Mohr
We have been graced and humbled by this incredible very exquisitively beautiful work of art by a legend in the making-🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Rachmaninov:3 / Alexander Malofeev ⚡️🦅⚡️🦅🌹⚡️🦅⚡️🙏🏾👵🏽✌🏾
Great to watch a current performance by this young giant of the piano. He has a unique way with Rachmaninov that I personally enjoy. He combines amazing technique, a great sense of of the scope of the music, and a rare ability to be aggressive and delicate at the right times.
Maybe it’s rather passion not aggression as his intention
I get it, those who said erratic or pace issues, comparing to Lim's performance it's not as technical perfect rendering, the symphony also supports him big times. But man, there's something about this one that moves you for reasons you don't understand. If I just let the music goes in the background without paying attention of who's playing it still always gets me, everytime
.
His performance is from the heart..looking the smiles from the orchestra and audience and listen to him sublime encore piece
Even the great Horowitz has technical issues with this enormous opus, there is a live recording here on YT were the finale is a bit messed up. I personally don’t care. You are so right, thank you for your insightful comment. I prefer concerts that are played with full passion to the robotic performances of some (particularly Asian) artists
Technically is as perfect as it is possible or even impossible.
Rachmaninoff would be extremely happy & proud his work is performed so masterly. Even better than the master himself!
The orchestra is absolutely incredible.
There are huge number of recordings of this concerto -- This is the best. Alexander gave everything, he expressed Rachmaninoff's Music in a fascinating way full of color, technique and virtuosity.
He generates an incredible energy in the faster passages Alternately, the softer passages show a tender, vulnerable side that most pianists do not achieve. His cadenza is full of confident, powerful, yet humble pianism. It was in the slow movement that he showed stunning poetic feeling wedded with an awe-inspiring virtuosity. What most impressed me is his incredible ability to play intensely and elegantly. Alexander's maturity, sense of phrasing, balance, and direction are out of this world, playing like this at such a young age it's just amazing.
Bravoo Alexander
there really isn't that many recordings of this concerto lol this piece is widely considered the hardest piece to play on piano implying that this piece would have the least amount of recordings compared to any other piece.
"A tender vulnerable side that most pianists do not achieve". And this is exactly what, I believe, separates him from the rest.
@@mcd1722 I agree heartily❤️❤️❤️❤️
@@mcd1722 A Rachmanov soulmate
Truly great performance. In my opinion as good as Anna Federova's performance.
Wonderful! Heavenly!!!
Thank you!!!
