Magistral interpretacion!!! Asi lo hubiera interpretado Chopin! Triste, doloroso, heroico, esperanzador. Fraseo a dos manos. Tiempo preciso. Canto todas las notas de la obra, con un sentimiento y emocion y precision ,de matices colosal. Imposible no lagrimear. 👏👏👏👏👏
Of all the Chopin nocturnes, this is perhaps the greatest. Only the C sharp minor, opus 27 no. 1 compares. Many are wonderful but those two are at the very pinnacle of Chopin’s art. This is a funeral march a chorale and again the march accompanied by hysterics that resolve in tears
Brutal, toca a Chopin de una manera tan personal y sincera, tan alejada del sentimentalismo y la frase fácil, que estoy perplejo. Hay dolor, pérdida, contrastes, belleza quebradiza, pura magia musical.
Good Lord. I've listened to thousands of recordings of this amazing piece and every one of them lacked something. But this...this is just stunning.! I've finally found an ideal. Bravo.
Dear Nikolai, you get along fine with your great friend Chopin. Your musical and artistic contributions to our well-being and to our culture are simply priceless. Heartfelt thanks and long live.
Aaah Nikolai ... so elegant, so sublime, so passionate, so handsome ... And his hands are amazing. Watching them I could swear his fingers have an additional joint This nocturne is perfect for him, like rach prelude 32-10 or Scriabin 8-12 or every other chord banging piece. And he is the master of banging chords without banging them
Never did it bother me so little that someone plays this as slow as he does. Because of his sublime phrasing it's barely noticable that it's "slow" and instead of boring the phrases become even more intense. Such a unique and tasteful interpretation.
@@vaxx2007 Он играет не слишком медленно, а так, чтобы сыграть это "правильно". Дело в том, что третья часть должна звучать в темпе в два раза быстрее первой. Никто практически не соблюдает это предписание от Шопена... Луганский не в их числе.
If someone plays this faster than 6:30 - this is not a piano player, its a sprinter runner, dont even listen to it This performance is quite close to perfext in terms of speed
I am often confused and puzzled when people say they find classical music boring, but I do think I know why. The main reasons must be the way classical music is presented: Old men in black suits who attend high class concerts were clapping at the wrong place is the highest sin one can achieve. The other reason is that the world has now become over saturated with noise, either through the huge amount of meaningless trash one encounters through social media, or that music has become a cheap industry that bases itself around the idea that music should be simple and mainstream. In that sense I understand how people can call classical music boring; because they have lost the ability to appreciate the silence between the notes and honesty that comes when an artist puts their entire being into an instrument on a stage. People today needs an artist to whom they can relate to and see as a person, rather than a prodigy with a black suit. I believe the way classical music is presented must change in order for this music to live on, and inspire a wider audience. Im not saying that we should dress up Lugansky in some bling bling, put a repetitive drum beat and a bunch of swear words on top of his nocturne. What Im saying is that Chopin should be for everyone, not only the ones that are able to clap at the right places or those who are seemingly more intellectual than the rest of society. No, classical music is for everyone, and I pity those who say classical music is boring, because they cant even comprehend what they are living without.
Isak Hungnes, yeah man i agree that people should appreciate classical music in general because objectively speaking its amazing but the problem of people finding it boring resides more on what are the trend or whats popular in the moment because composers like liszt at that time were well known and popular per say and as time goes what is popular changes and that shouldn’t be unappreciated but accepted. But of course one must respect the beauty in this.
@Lefty Smalls Well of course, Chopin might not be for everybody, but I suspect that almost everybody would, if they were willing, find _some_ classical music that they can love. Too many people just lump all classical music together as being boring and never give any of it a chance.
Well as a result of this generations ever shorting attention span they dont have any patience to appreciate a nocturne... Im talking cold facts here check the statistics
@@carlosvillagra6661 It pains me to share this sentiment. Yet I am blessed to play for a select few people who are willing to sit down and listen to nocturnes whole-heartedly.
Luganski si hizo conciencia del gran compromiso que representa interpretar a Chopín. La psicología de Chopin abarca desde la tristeza más profunda a la herocidad de la lucha y la esperanza , Luganski se fusionó emocionalmente con Chopin , lo demuestra el gesto balbuceante de su rostro en al " agitato " . Sólo un excelente intérprete conmueve y emociona. La técnica pura al servicio de la pasión sin virtuosismos innecesarios tipo Lang Lang. La mejor de todas las interpretaciones de esta obra.
Sin lugar a dudas, la parte de "Doppio movimento" es simplemente perfecta, el tempo es perfecto, la limpieza de su técnica es pulquérrima y la expresividad que incorpora en su interpretación me provoca escalofríos. Es verdaderamente sorprendente; Lugansky es un gran intérprete, y aquí lo demuestra
Agree completely. I've never heard a better interpretation. His Doppio is a model of restrained passion... delicacy of the left hand letting the melody sing through while still capturing all the light and shade of the beautiful harmonics.
Superb-this is how I always imagined it should be played but never heard it until now. The arc from sad beginning to utterly despondent ending is magnificent and complete.
Wonderful. It never cases to amaze that for generations the Poles and Hungarians have found the silver in Chopin, while their Russian colleagues have mined the gold.
I agree! Over the centuries pianist are getting faster and faster. Chopin, I believe, would play like Lugansky did here. Perhaps even slower due to his sickness.
@@joaocarvalho8840i actually believe that pianists are getting slower, when it comes to pieces like this! The romantic era was the era if the virtuosos where every hard piece was played with the most ease leading to pianists trying show off their technique, just like liszt.
À force de voir des pianistes actuels qui mettent en avant une technique acerbe prétendant être passionnés, bernant des centaines de milliers de spectateurs qui voient cette illusion comme réelle, j'étais devenu vraiment trop critique. J'ai été réticent avec Nikolai Lugansky et je m'en veux vraiment, je le compare aux Horowitz, Rubinstein, Arrau, Richter, Ashkenazy, Zimerman. Il est vraiment de la relève des légendes du 20ème siècle, à ne surtout pas sous-estimer.
I did find the opening a little on the slow side, the rubato a bit overdone for my tastes, but the clarity and power of the more virtuosic parts were wonderful.
Those comments who said Jin Cho has better interpretation are just casuals, they don't know anything about professional piano performance. A Chopin competition winner is just a student who has chance to meet the world, they are nothing compared to a real master. They still need time to improve themselves, and by saying that they have already surpassed other piano legends are just ignorant and stupid.
International-competitions pianists have famous technic of the Key-board , it's a new erea of piano we live , in first meticulous technic , composers after ; there is something missing in youngs students . about competitions a tiny number makes a career
Interesting how Horowitz adds in an extra 2 bars, 8 beats, of extra descending 4 note chords prior to last 6 chords. Nobody has seemed to notice this. I prefer it this way.
While watching Cho's playing at Chopin Competition read comments saying Lugansky's interpretation is better, so I'm here to check out. Nope, I think Cho's is better especially the later part. Still my fav interpretation is by Rubinstein.
A bit too much slow the first part...a bit too much fast the second one. For me an unpleasant differency in rendition. See Rubinstein (the best) or Jin Cho
почему так медленно, Николай? мелодия рвется на куски, она не звучит слитно, не работает баланс между руками. у Шопена нет никаких ремарок играть настолько медленно. где же бельканто? только в репризе музыка понеслась птицей. как всегда комментаторы не являясь ни музыкантами ни пианистами, будут бесконечно восторгаться, ну просто потому что на вывеске написано имя большого пианиста.
Op. 48 No.1 is my favourite piece of music. His interpretation the best I've ever listen to.. magic. How good was this Mr. Chopin..
let you touch the divine on earth!
idil biret
Je suis émerveillé par cette interprétation de Chopin. Un grand artiste. Beaucoup d'exactitude et de sentiment. Bravo Bravo !!
Lugansky est un meveilleux pianiste avec des superbes interprétations dont Chopin et Rachmaninoff. Bravo vraiment à écouter et réécouter.
Magistral interpretacion!!! Asi lo hubiera interpretado Chopin! Triste, doloroso, heroico, esperanzador. Fraseo a dos manos. Tiempo preciso. Canto todas las notas de la obra, con un sentimiento y emocion y precision ,de matices colosal. Imposible no lagrimear. 👏👏👏👏👏

Your opinion
The most dramatic and emotive for sure, but op 27 no 2 is heavenly and so is the op62 ones and op 55 no2.
Ganja Mozart Agreed. They’re all gems. Unique genius.
Op 15 No 2 is also great. It isn’t as “powerful” as this one, but it is deffo in my top 5 for being beautiful!
A Man Has No Name The first one in b flat minor is one of my favorites.
Sublime. Delicate. Heartbreaking. Fierce and passionate. Words seem so poor when you listen and watch Lugansky playing.
Brutal, toca a Chopin de una manera tan personal y sincera, tan alejada del sentimentalismo y la frase fácil, que estoy perplejo. Hay dolor, pérdida, contrastes, belleza quebradiza, pura magia musical.

edil biret you must listen !!!!!!
Rubinsteins is so much better
I prefer the slow, expressive pace myself. You hear, absorb and feel more expression. Lots of fine details missed by the casual listener.
Wow, never has an interpretation of this piece ever felt so natural.
Dear Nikolai, you get along fine with your great friend Chopin. Your musical and artistic contributions to our well-being and to our culture are simply priceless. Heartfelt thanks and long live.
Quelle pièce magnifique que ce Nocturne Op.48 N.1 et tout le génie de Nikolai Lugansky

Tremenda interpretación, los tiempos correctos y un final perfecto.
You can tell that the harmonies are eating him up on the inside 5:35 - 5:47 and he loves it. I can relate.
I agree. I almost cried during this part.
The following twenty seconds weren't filmed from front because he was taking to much pleasure
Superb-this is how I always imagined it should be played but never heard it until now. The arc from sad beginning to utterly despondent ending is magnificent and complete.
Incomparable, stunning! Bravo! Heartfelt thanks!
The speed was timed perfectly imo. Simply majestic
Such an ethereal and breathtaking rendering - unequalled.
Wonderful. It never cases to amaze that for generations the Poles and Hungarians have found the silver in Chopin, while their Russian colleagues have mined the gold.
Боже, как мне нравится Луганский, в лучшем исполнении я не слышала!
Послушайте еще Алексея Султанова...
Love his interpretation! Superb performance.
I didn't expect to see you here!

Por momentos la pasión desplaza la sutileza
Magnificent! Profound and mature.
Thank a lot!
Many thanks for post this amazing recital of Lugansky!
Merveilleux artiste

Vraiment superbe interprétation. Beaucoup de justesse et de sentiment. Bravo
Phenomenal performance
I love the part in the middle section when the octaves start, all the way through to the return of the first theme.
Огромная боаодарность пианисту. Произведение слушаеться на одном дыхании.
Коля - ты лучший!
Excellent! Bravo!!!
Perfect tempo, just how i would imagine chopin playing this piece
Lungansky's version for this piece is my favorite.
MAGISTRAL absolutamente
Perfect performance !
breath-taking and awesome!
Be congratulated for being always so elegant. That white bow tie suits you perfectly... ... ... 🤗
GREAT ARTIST !
Best version ever!!
Great version, but i think seong jin cho’s set the bar
@@jrhee Great Version but maria Joao Pires is best
No one can top Rubinstein
@@jrhee lol... Casuals
My favourite music unique Magic ... Pure Love ❤️
Le choix du long tempo est intéressant . Cela passe très bien.
Great technique but too rapid in the final section for my ear to appreciate the great completion at the top before it dies.
Мощно!
Excellent
Splendid!
Obviously, Nikolai has written his name his name among the immortals. Sublime.
Лучшее
Adoro questo notturno. E di tutte quelle ascoltate questa decisamente è una bellissima versione.. ma amo anche Argerich
A nice interpretation albeit a little slow, it exudes clarity and unified vision of interpretation.
I want a really dramatic version I like this one
Damnn.. Look at this masterpiece. As if there is a big orchestra playing not just a piano
En orquesta perdería el carácter intimista de la obra
I've never heard it better.
Muhteşem...
* perfection *
Splendid.
Thunder-like bass
When Lugansky plays this piece, I always get the Rachmaninov Op 39 No 5 vibes at the doppio movimento part.
Same
Its probably because rachmaninoff got inspired from that part. Again I'm not sure.
I did find the opening a little on the slow side, the rubato a bit overdone for my tastes, but the clarity and power of the more virtuosic parts were wonderful.
Sublime!
Hmm is this where seong-jin cho got his interpretation of this nocturne from? It sounds really similar!
Arnan I agree. If you listen to Arrau's version, that's also similar.
That man is the total package. He has it all. Bye bye Bang Bang.
Please please please record the Nocturnes, Kolia!
antonio martinazzo He did!
@@silvia7597 the entire Chopin nocturnes? I love Lugansky and I would love to hear a recording of him playing all nocturnes.
Outstanding
Around 5:04 onwards, I wanted to see the keyboard! Why the shot showing his face??? You could have done that during the quieter moments.
Wonder final
His playing reminds of Chopin winner Seong Jin Cho's playing when he played this Nocturne
I love both interpretations, but they are very different to me.
Those comments who said Jin Cho has better interpretation are just casuals, they don't know anything about professional piano performance. A Chopin competition winner is just a student who has chance to meet the world, they are nothing compared to a real master. They still need time to improve themselves, and by saying that they have already surpassed other piano legends are just ignorant and stupid.
International-competitions pianists have famous technic of the Key-board , it's a new erea of piano we live , in first meticulous technic , composers after ; there is something missing in youngs students . about competitions a tiny number makes a career
So s. L. O. W.

He isn't gay!!!!!!!!!!
?
Interesting how Horowitz adds in an extra 2 bars, 8 beats, of extra descending 4 note chords prior to last 6 chords. Nobody has seemed to notice this. I prefer it this way.
He somehow reminds me of Cortot.
Para Eb..
great pianist, better mandible dancer. Special thanks to MDMA
While watching Cho's playing at Chopin Competition read comments saying Lugansky's interpretation is better, so I'm here to check out. Nope, I think Cho's is better especially the later part. Still my fav interpretation is by Rubinstein.
Lugansky is a master, one of 5 alive legendary pianists now
Because you are a casual
Chopin competition winner is nothing compared to a real master.
!!!!!!!!
Rubinstein still is the winner, no one can play this piece like Rubinstein
Check out Hoffman's interpretation
kaf kef!
lararalalra
Играет отрывистыми неосмысленными фразами, передерживает паузы.Единая музыкальная мысль , речь а с нею и наше впечатление разваливаются.
Плохо!
Encore un pianiste qui n'a rien compris à l'esprit de Chopin ! beaucoup trop rapide et brutal !!!!
@James Kirk Je vous annonce un scoop ... on a le droit de ne pas tous avoir la même opinion d'une interprétation comme d'autre chose 😉
is the opening section marked LENTO.... way too slow... it drags big time...
Disagree
A bit too much slow the first part...a bit too much fast the second one. For me an unpleasant differency in rendition. See Rubinstein (the best) or Jin Cho
el tempo indicado es LENTO
De acuerdo que Rubinstein es supremo
почему так медленно, Николай? мелодия рвется на куски, она не звучит слитно, не работает баланс между руками. у Шопена нет никаких ремарок играть настолько медленно. где же бельканто?
только в репризе музыка понеслась птицей.
как всегда комментаторы не являясь ни музыкантами ни пианистами, будут бесконечно восторгаться, ну просто потому что на вывеске написано имя большого пианиста.
nice but too slow sometimes
I think he is gay.
cheee
+The Bride of Sevenless You know what they say - Pianists are either gay, Jewish, or bad. He isn't Jewish, so I'm going to have to agree with you.
And your point would be?
My point is that he's good and he's not Jewish, so according to the old saying he's probably gay.
he is married . i read it in a book
