"[…] Chronologically the Third Piano Concerto belongs to the period described in Russia as the Silver Age. However, as a counterbalance to the centrifugal tendencies of this artistic period, the main creative thrust in Rachmaninov’s work is centripetal and the centre is in fact the Russian person, with all the spiritual and emotional attributes and intrinsic elements of that symbolic person. In the Third Piano Concerto, national traits are enveloped in a European virtuoso style but this style is interpreted in a more Russian way which is particularly effective. When we combine this with the deep personal nature of his musical expression, we can see that this work reflects not simply the power of the Russian style but also the lyricism of personal emotion. “

Saw him perform Rach 3 a couple weeks ago, the crowd went absolutely mental with the finale. We gave him a standing ovation, and he came out for 2 encores after that. One of the best experiences of my life.
Поверьте человеку русскому. Николай играет так, как играл сам Сергей Рахманинов. Исполнение гениальное
Where did you see him?
@@BuzziMuzzi not OP but propably Greece
Lugansky has given a whole new meaning to the beauty of this piece. He is an incredible pianist.
I agree! The Best Rachmanonov interpretation!
I love the body that male pianists like him, Matsuev and Trifonov infuse into the works. They sound so much more full of depth and emotion and truth.
@@burrenmagic, к глубочайшему сожалению, Денис Леонидович очень часто и много мажет... Поэтому, я бы не стал его приравнивать к таким пианиста, как Николай Львович.
Today I had the privilege to attend to a concert by Lugansky playing this very concerto by Rachmaninoff in Naples at the San Carlo theater. Now I have seen many concerts by great artists but the concert by Lugansky will remain impressed in my memory for the rest of my life. He is not only a sublime pianist but also a wonderful human being ! ❤
Wow, he is very exact in his approach to the notes. Every chord sounds like he is hitting the keys in the middle. Outstanding
I've heard so many pianists performing the Rach 3. Lugansky's playing is so clean & crystalline, that many more of the nuances of this magnificent piece are exposed. Just beautiful!!
Исполнение Николаем Луганским " жемчужины" русской музыки - 3-го концерта С. В. Рахманинова, - выдержано в лучших традициях русской исполнительской фортепианной школы и раскрывает всю полноту, красоту и драматизм русской души! БРАВО!
Jes... Bravo
Hmmm... every time I listen to Rach 3 I feel like I need to listen to more Rach 3. Can anyone explain?
I can never get enough rach music!
It's like returning to a loved one. You wonder why you were away so long and never want to leave again
We in the west were cheated out of admiring our russian brothers and sisters for our entire lives (Cold War babies)... so for myself, it feels like a re-discovering of a family I never really knew I had. :-) Russia has a richness that we were always assured did not exist, that they were nothing but a cold-hearted, unemotional, calculating people... what rubbish we were fed, eh?. The richness of all the old russian architecture is astounding... as is the richness of russia's musical heritage, the musicians from russia never cease to amaze and impress me now that we're actually free to listen to them share their talents with the whole world. May God bless all musical souls, music is truly the universal language that brings us all together in peace and harmony!!
@@asb3pe Everything from Russia has always been available to those who were seeking: art, literature, and music. Let's not forget that Horowitz, Ashkenazy, and Richter were Russian pianists who lived and/or toured the rest of the world during the cold war!
Because the music of Rachmaninoff is Splendor in all it's Glory! His mastery has hypnotized me to the extent I can never get tired of hearing the genius of Rachmaninoff a hundred times over!!
As close to perfection as a human can get. Love that he did the original cadenza.
I'm not 100% sure, but I'm pretty sure this is actually the 2nd variation of the cadenza Rachmaninov wrote for the 1st movement. What is now labeled as "ossia" was the original, but after coming to the realisation that it was a bit too intense for a cadenza in the 1st movement he re wrote it into what many people now call the "original cadenza". That's why the musical ideas are very similar, culminating in the same chordal passage at the end. I remember hearing this somewhere but can't remember where sorry
@@fergusfletcher9697 Yes, 100% correct. In terms of thematic content, the two are identical, as they are with the final stretto of the finale. This is pretty much hidden the the flurry of the rewrite, and explicit in the brooding original, to my mind the proper cadenza.
@@fergusfletcher9697Yeah brother you're absolutely correct. I would've loved this performance even more if it had the original Ossia cadenza.
@@alexwhitewood6480 Lugansky has stated in an interview why he doesn't play the ossia. It makes 100% sense
After listening to many others, I must concur with my colleagues, Lugansky performs Rachmaninov with greater facility than I have heard in any other performer.
Lugansky is undoubtedly the greatest current interpreter of Rachmaninov. He plays this concerto a lot and always beautifully well. But here he is so much more generous, free and sincere. I think that the conductor in concertos is so important that the performance masterpiece can reach its highest point.
@@cmcom893 RIP
I don't agree. I think Arthur Rubinstein, Anna Federova and Daniil Trifonov are the best interpreters of Rachmaninoff!
You should hear him play chop-sticks.
I take your Lugansky Rach 3 and raise you Zimerman’s Rach 2.
@@anandsamuel1978 Trifonov interpretations? You jokeman ting
I’ve watched hundreds of amazing pianists play this piece and I have to say, this performance is the closest to perfection I’ve experienced. Amazing job during the intermezzo portion.. absolutely beautiful. Thank you.
I'm a Lugansky fan. He is an outstanding pianist.Especially, he is good at Rachmaninoff. I am very happy and thankful to see a good video.
Truly a magnificent performance. Lugansky brings both warmth and precision, understanding and refinement, a true aristocrat of the keyboard.
One of the best versions I have ever heard. Thx Nikolai !!
1:01 - it is so nice to hear that section clean.
DEFINITELY one of THE best performances of this piece. His clarity and voice is phenomenal. There's nothing lacking.
Lugansky is first class. One of the best pianist of our time. Search wonderful interpretation here
Three weeks to the day that I'll see him perform this live for the second time in my life. I'm counting the hours...
One week more!
How was it ?
@@realityproof_0891 he was perfect, although I had the feeling that he's kind of fed up playing the same thing again and again
31:41 The conductor is priceless
Как говорил товарищ Ленин:"Нечеловеческая музыка"!Любимый концерт Рахманинова и в таком замечательном исполнении! До чего же Николай Луганский тонкий исполнитель!Спасибо и оркестр у и Луганскому!
Lugansky's individual clarity of each note, along with the phrasing that incessantly continues, gives this piece and an entire new meaning. Awesome performance
I have heard many capable pianists play the big R, but with Lugansky it is almost organic, and orgasmic, and quite another thing. God, I love him!
At 39.11 he brings out some amazing notes I've not heard (descending in left hand). Marvellous.
Да да! Интересно показал кусочек, выделил
Each chord has so much crispness and depth to it
I think lugansky has a part of Rachmaninoff's soul inside
Vous avez entièrement raison, je suis d'accord avec vous .quel bonheur de l'écouter jouer .
@@joellepodwysocki9558 yes I totally agree with you someday I hope to be able to listen him in a concert.
@@ahmetozanylmaz8098
I too would like to listen to it in concert
You are not wrong... They are from the same soul family...
Yes he is great, but he and Yunchan Lim both play this work far better than Rachmaninoff and Horowitz did.
I'd love to sit down and talk with Lugansky about music and know what is going on inside of his mind. He is on a different level.
This performance is truly a shining example of how this piece was meant to be... a real gem.
I love this channel . Thank you the enchanted Wanderer!!!
Thanks for posting all these performances from my favourite pianist Mr Lugansky!
Congratulations on this great musical event played by a great musician! Cheers to the symphonic soloists and conductor! This recording brought a new depth of musical understanding of this piece for me and of music in general. It also made me realize for the first time how extraordinary a pianist/musician Mr Lugansky is. If I may ad, many thanks maestro Lugansky for playing the longer cadenza!! I hate to say it but always feel cheated when I hear the shorter version (same reaction every time I hear the shorter Rahk Sonata no. 2. ; wish I could have commented without sounding so judgemental). . Cheers.
Сильнейшее исполнение сильнейшей вещи! Фантастика!
Одного "лайка" абсолютно, до обиды, недостаточно!
Simply pure MAGIC!! So sublime, such beautiful music played so perfectly!
ABC FM just had a week of celebration for Rachmaninov’s 150th anniversary. Listening to this extraordinary interpretation is wonderful.
Wow! What a crisp and precise execution of Rach 3. Flawless performance!
I think this performance is (one of) his best - so musical, so perfect that it makes me cry !
ラフマニノフ作品のピアノ奏者でルガンスキーさんが最も心に届きます。
Невероятно! Огромная благодарность Николаю Луганскому за минуты счастья.
Прекрасно, гениально, возвышенно, спасибо вам, гениальный солист и замечательный гениальный оркестр. ♥️
Isn't 14:01 to 14:34 just such a cool moment? It's like that amazing 2nd theme just completely flies up and away, only to seamlessly end up in that single B flat that ends the whole flourish, which is ironically so grounded, as if it just flew into a new dimension or something for the recap of the main theme to take place in.
I know,why you want to listen that concerto again ,again and again....This concerto is awesome, only for those who love classical music...
A great pianist playing a great masterpiece!
This video is simply incredible!
Great performance matched by nice camera work! Bravo Mr. Lugansky!
Can we talk about how beautiful the trumpet sounds at 41:45 along with everything else
I already knew Lugansky style, but didn't heared before his rendition of this concert. I was listening in the last couple of days many execution from other great pianists of this, but everyone was missing one thing that I never liked from other, thank I checked for Lugasnky remembering how he play Rachmaninoff and I already knew that if there was someone able to do that think the way I would to hear it was him. And here it comes, striking perfectly the glissato ad 28:40
Same!!! The glissando to the top C is a major problem I had with other performers, because they often decresc. from it, or execute the glissando sloppily (Andsnes was very clean, but he did this exactly same thing lol). I also really love his tempo choices across the entire concerto, everything is clean and in control, yet still had enough fire and excitement, and was not "slow". I don't care what others said Lugansky's performance sounds too perfect and other performers are more spontaneous etc, I just want a more structurally informed, introspective, yet also exciting enough performance, and Lugansky gave me that.

Благодарю за прекрасный комментарий! ❤
It’s truly an honor to follow the technical and artistic progression of this concerto’s performers, and just when after remembering all the favorites throughout the years, along comes a new # 1!
WOW! Stunning.
Маэстро Александр Ведерников - Светлая Память 🙏🙏🙏 Выдающийся Музыкант .
Lugansky said in the interview, that when he was seventeen, his teacher offered him to play this concerto in a concert one month later. He didn't know it, so he learned it in 3 days. In the end, this place was given to another pianist, but that's how the story goes.
in 3 days or in 3 weeks ?
@@rigel48 3 days, that's the point xd
That's sound impossible for only 3 day,
atleast he already listen of this concerto thousand of time and already learn about rachmaninof since long time ago considered he is a Russian
I am so grateful for this channel!
❤️🙏
3rd movement's motto: "In case you didn't think that 1st movement cadenza was hard enough..."
Merci, Nikolaï ! Vois êtes de plus en plus superbe dans vos interprétations ! Votre Interprétation de la Coda du Finale est réellement sublime !
I’ve listening Rach 3 always with dif soloists , si difficult specially 3 re Mov. !!!! Like Sokolov , Yefim and NOW LUGANSKI’s he’s GRATE!! Thanks !!!!
I always love lugansky interpretation of Rach.
Absolute masterpiece with bright and passionate energy, striking in its unique beauty, one of those unique and wonderful works of art that fills you with emotions, and stays within your memory forever. . .
Одно из лучших исполнений 3 концерта за всю историю. Спасибо, Николай!
Excellent pianist. Excellent rendition. Way to keep the tempi correct. Often times the main theme lags in other performances! Excellent recording. Loved the oboist!
LEGENDARY
such a great honour that i live exactly same era and i can watch him performing on youtube but also in the concert hall. i am not going to forget the magical time i saw him playing the piano and had a small talk after the concert in la roque, 2018. i wish i could go back to the moment.
7 thumbs down ? I shall never understand this civilization I was born in. Never !
What a refreshingly crisp take
I'd give my left arm to play like this guy
But then you wouldn't be able to play with your right arm only!
Wow, does he ever know how to perform this concerto. Fantastic. Also kudos to the very complicated orchestral accompaniment. All in all a stunning performance.
Sublime, merci Monsieur Lugansky vous êtes un génie, merci au chef d'orchestre aux musiciens. Un bonheur immense. It's sublime, Thank you Mr. Lugansky you are a genius, Thank you to the conductor to the musicians. An immense happiness.
Thank you for this! Absolutely magnificent
Fantastic view of his hands in the reflection of the piano!
A great performance by pianist and orchestra with the conductor being central to its overall success by keeping everybody, so to speak, on the same page.
How could someone dislike this?
Гениальное исполнение! Спасибо, маэстро!
Посоветуйте мне какой нибудь шедевр послушать
@@pharaoh1374 зимняя дорога Свиридова шедевр
Can't get enough of this concerto
Спасибо !!! 🙏🏻❤️
Напоминает мне великого Владимира Горовица. Величайший пианист всех времен!
that nasty COVID caused Alexander Vedernikov pased away, pity. Lugasnky - as ussual - excelent performance of this rach 3 concerto
INCREDIBLE FINALE!
Up until now for me the golden standard was Berman with the London Symphony Orchestra conducted by Abbado but this is very close to becoming the new benchmark....and on a side note, lets face it, concert pianists can't be human 😬
Bravissiomo, one of the my greatest dream to watch and listen Lugansky live. After this pandemic hope a great opportunity to all musicians
What exuberant mastery
I truly wonder who would place a thumbs down on this Great Musician? It just amazes me at where some people are coming from! Sad indeed--
Wow! Lugansky makes all musics look easy, including Rach 3. This is awesome!
Это что-то непостижимо удивительное! ❤️
Tecnica formidabile senza strafare. Suono pulito e interpretazione romantica. Straordinario interprete di Rachmaninov.
Beautiful touch, like silk. Like the master himself
Great composer, great piece, great pianist. Great performance. ❤
Unbelievably clean and crystal pure. Though I miss the Ossia Cadenza so bad. With it, this interpretation would have been a complete masterpiece.
So beautiful!! Thank you!
Lugansky played this concerto by Rachmaninoff with his soul I cry when he plays it
What a king
Amazing
4:39 and 34:51 this melody is heaven...
Anyone else came here from that one video of lugansky 12 years ago practicing this?
Outstanding...A special thanks to him for playing the "lighter" cadenza, which is much better.
потрясающий пианист.
Напоминает мне великого Владимира Горовица. Величайший пианист всех времен!
I listen to his performance 1 week ago in Athens (Greece) and I was astonish. He was more than perfect. I adored him!!!
I commend your detailed-ness and your dedication to the one and only Lugsy
Ни малейшего сомнения - превосходная музыка. Интересный дирижёр, дирижирует и головой, и туловищем.
И мне кажется, что само произведение необычное для Рахманинова.
Breathless
Sublime interpretation !
Incredible clarity with an amplified piano. Sounds like being next to it.
Блестяще 👏👏👏👏👏👏💖💖💖
Луганский духовный наследник
Самого Рахманинова ❤ Сегодня
Он лучше всех Восскрещает ЕГО
Исполнительский Стиль ❤ ❤ ❤
Amazing!
I love his interpretation on the score.. technically perfect with good expression..
