Tolstoy famously wept when he first heard this piece. Tchaikovsky was sat next to him at the time and later said it was the proudest moment of his life. Thank God for music that elevates the spirit :)
This must be one of the greatest A.C. ever played live or record of all time. She took this master piece of her own - completely digested to present a genuinely recreated her own A.C. What really impressed is those prolonged phrases at many slower curves - going even slower but never a dull moments but chilling tensions bringing the deepest heart and souls out. When the final high pitch slow phrase is over, she appears to have nothing left in her inner - she succeeded pouring all of her sours & sprits out for this great performance.
Absolutely exquisite. The embodiment of musical genius displayed by this young woman!! Thank you for sharing as this is one of my all-time favorite musical works by the great Peter I. Tchaikovsky!!!
I like her performance very much. She seems to put all her soul into the music. Very moving. This is the first time I listened to her performance and will look for her from now on. Bravo, Han Na!
Loved that end note. Looked like she was biting back a tear at the end. Nice. Easily one of the most beautiful pieces ever written for any instrument. It's so crazy that my favorite piece for Piano, Violin and Cello are all Tchaikovsky. That dude knew how to rock a quill and some parchment!
@Joe Bauer, The arrangement for cello and orchestra of Tchaikovsky's Andante Cantabile was undertaken by the composer himself for the cellist Anatoly Brandukov when Tchaikovsky was in Paris for his Parisian concerts in 1888.
When I listen to her calm music I find myself always in purgatory surrounded by shadowed sadness and cannot but looking upon the blue sky without power. The music of truth. This world consists of saddness. Our cloth, our food, our house, our family our contry cosist of saddness.
Late nineties Han-na bowled me over with her debut recording. Much later I realised how incredibly young she was then. Tchaikovsky, Fauré, Bruch, it's a spectacular album.
Marvelous expression. A great cellist. Far superior to the guy on a string. About distractions for the audience: I got kicked out of a choir for this same reason. I was told to be less emotional as I sang. Perhaps we should tell performers to be less passionate about their music.
Paul D I think Lesley meant in the description; this is the 2nd movement of Tchaikovsky's string quartet #1, arranged for cello + orchestra, and thus, not a Haydn cello concerto :)
superb performance! I do wish she (and so many other classical musicians) could do away with the overly dramatic facial contortions, almost to the point of being NSFW. Really a distraction for me. I usually close my eyes when I'm at a concert and the musician gets a little too graphic.
I play cello and while I agree that musicians moving around or contorting their faces too much takes away from the music, from my experience it isn't always controllable. People tell me I get very a very intense expression when I'm playing with others, and I can't control it and usually am not aware. When playing a solo, I often get so... lost(?) that I stop controlling my facial muscles and probably have all kinds of weird expressions. Not saying that that's the case for everyone, because I've seen some players who are almost jumping out of their seats whenever they play a single note, but not all musicians react to playing the same way.
If you are saying that she is acting that's unproveable. I believe these musicians genuinely get caught up in the emotional beauty of the music and in a trance like dream carry us with them. Never a "distraction" to me.

Amazing how the greats of that era knew one another. How sad that Han Na did not continue in the Cello.
장한나 님의 연주로 처음 접한 곡
안단테 칸타빌레 라는 말을 참 좋아하게 됐어요
마음이 지칠 때면 찾아온 게 벌써 10년이 되어갑니다.
참 아름다운 곡이에요..♥

Simply beautiful ❤
Great performance. It brought tears to my eyes.

Insanely beautiful!! Played perfectly!! 💗🥰🥲
Tchaikovsky was one of the best melodist ever !
And the Chang's art is so subtile...
This is a Real voice of cello
Nope, it's just one of many that it has
like mesmerizing in a beautiful dream, walking with lover in calm. what a wonderful expression!
What a beautiful piece!

The angel of music

Extraordinary. Light on water. Thank you for posting this, choish20.
A remarkably beautiful performance.
Wonderful music!

I play cello, but this is something to look up to and someday try to accomplish what she has.
Omg I will play it in June and watching this version makes me stresssss. So beautiful !!!!! :o

First Noble Truth of the Buddha: Life is Suffering.
Beautiful performance.
sooooooooooooo amazing!!!
Tchaikovsky, the great!
Plus j'écoute du violoncelle, surtout joué comme cela, plus j'ai envie de me mettre à en jouer !
Superbe, émouvant !
Obviously excellent !
Hanna de mooiste die er bestaat. Klasse!!
at 3:00 is just beautiful! Even though I don't play the cello. She's amazing!

Çok güzel bir eser
이곡을 듣고 톨스토이는 눈물을 흘렸다죠...
내 심장을 관통하는.미어질듯한 느낌.눈물을 흘리고 싶어요
shall I dare say, "nailed-it!!" haha
How many thousands of hours....?
I love the cello, but most of all when Han-Na plays it. :)
She making love to the music. Its beautiful.
I always get chills from 2:35-4:25
Ricardo Villanueva
i wouldve killed to attend this concert... she literally played all of my favorite cello tunes
天籁之声
devocional;
"Andante Cantabile" for Cello and string orchestra -P.I.Tchaiko
굿 ᆢ굿 ~감사합니다 당신에
Excellent performance! By the way, who is the conductor?
That would make a goood 2nd movement if it was a cello concerto :)!
very nice chang ♥
Damn low volume, on otherwise excellent vid! :)
4:25 FTW!
is the conductor Kent Nagano?
Does anyone know who the conductor is?
Next Bach please!
Who is the arranger?

Who is this "guy on a string" of whom you speak?
that bow looks different
I much prefer her version of this wonderful piece to Yoyo Ma's. The world Haydn in the title is certainly a slip.
Where did Haydn come from? :-/
He was a german.
Paul D I think Lesley meant in the description; this is the 2nd movement of Tchaikovsky's string quartet #1, arranged for cello + orchestra, and thus,
not a Haydn cello concerto :)
No one knows. He was always haydn, so nobody could find him.
David Snyder maybe this was an encore?
Asher Sizemore
OMG thumbs up for musician humor! :)
소리 안들려요 음질 신경써서 올려주세요
She's an unerased woman from previous life...
OK, but I prefer the string quartet.
You are the only one
just few notes... thats enough for me.
superb performance! I do wish she (and so many other classical musicians) could do away with the overly dramatic facial contortions, almost to the point of being NSFW. Really a distraction for me. I usually close my eyes when I'm at a concert and the musician gets a little too graphic.

Pablo Casals used to grunt worse than Maria Sharapova. He didn't have to shave his armpits, though
actually apart from love making you could think of it as constipation. or stomach ache... or agony... despair
Fleece try playing an emotional song with a straight face!
If you are saying that she is acting that's unproveable. I believe these musicians genuinely get caught up in the emotional beauty of the music and in a trance like dream carry us with them. Never a "distraction" to me.
독도는 우리땅
Pour moi la version originale pour quatuor est la plus intéressante. Ici on pense aux "Variations Rococo".
Like my ex-girlfriend so much.
Приятно, но на мой вкус немного вяловатое исполнение.
Ob das Tschaikowsky so gewollt hat? Ich glaube nicht. Da hat man sich zu weit von der Komposition entfernt.
This piece kind of sucks. Beautifully played... But I expect more from Tchaikovsky lol. First time i've ever wanted to sleep during one of his songs!
too much emotion, it is just an andante, saying that happy families are all happy, unhappy families are differently unhappy, that is all.

I wish that Jacqueline Du Pre had left us a performance of this.
