[@Ernesto7608]

Of the tens of versions of this piece I have heard, this is the best. By multiple criteria. The technique to play it so seamless and natural is highly exceptional. No wonder Yundi is so famous. I hope that he can still play it like this.

[@hiexis]

There is a version of Impromptu by Horowitz at the age of 86. It is my favorite version so I guess age doesn't matter that much for pianists :)

[@damiester1]

@@hiexis It kinda does lol. Horowitz is just special. Most people past a certain age would just move onto other aspects of the music career.

[@LC-ig2jm]

With all due respect, Horowitz pounds a little too much for Chopin. But Horowitz is one of my top 3 pianist along with Argerich and the 18 year old Yundi(the year he won the Chopin Competition.

[@JaneDoe-bg6yz]

So flowing and effortless; my favorite interpretation.

[@jenniferw683]

This is by far the finest interpretation of this work. Thank you for uploading it.

[@Q6spoon]

Woa Yundi Li's play is so amazing!

[@anonymousQ45]

so even and clean.

[@mikern2001]

His playing reminds me of Pollini. Clarity, great articulation, complete control over the keyboard.

[@vettegaddia6234]

+Michael Rosen The accuracy of Pollini, but also the art of Chopin. So in this piece, he is at his best. But, of course, this is not live.

I've searched all of RUclips, looking for who did it best, and here I am, searching no more

[@bennemann]

Have you tried Sokolov's?

[@jusmt5079]

@@bennemann I have and although I like the beginning of his take on it more than Yundi's, the rest (the main piece) is a little too fast, definitely like Yundi's more

[@korukoruaru]

love yundi's chopin! thank you for uploading this

[@allemande1685]

Very beautiful version!

[@cristinavelazcoamorin511]

Quisiera dar mi opinión sobre un vídeo ,que muchos llegaron a criticar,que a mí en lo personal me fascinó,y es el concierto EMPERADOR creo que tomó la esencia de lo que Beethoven quiso transmitir, vestido como un emperador. , conectado con la orquesta sin que está se viera junto con él,en cuánto a este estudio de Chopin sobre el invierno ,yo lo escuché tocado.,porRubinstein y no hubo mucha diferencia

[@cristinavelazcoamorin511]

Este estudio está magnífico cómo siempre muchas satisfacciones cada vez que escucho a Yundi Li creo que tiene mucho para dar todavía,una excelente interpretación.Sigo insistiendo en las traducciones de los comentarios al español,puede ser difícil,pero lo encuentro necesario para saber qué opinan los demás,sino,me voy a ver obligada a aprender chino

[@robinontheradio]

Thanks for telling me this mistake, i will change it right away and yes, this is a very good rendition.

[@anhducduong0105]

[@echohill668]

Love this rendition! It's No 11, not No 1., although it feels No. 1 :).

[@sweetfangs1979]

I like! Yundi Li is at par with Pollini when it comes to Chopin's etudes.

[@peyanno]

Has Yundi made a complete op 10 or op 25 album?

[@pablorubin9638]

is op 25 n11 winter wind of chopin

[@wynlewis5357]
