this is so ridiculously good. I find it hard to believe anyone who negged this has ever played the piano. This is as perfect as it gets when it comes to this piece. Easily one of the best versions of this on youtube.
A great example of how most great pianists already showed their greatness before their mid-teens. The people who say "you don't know" until later are not familiar with pianists like Wang here or Kissin or Tiempo or Thibaudet or Grimaud who all were soloists before high school.

One can already hear, that she will become one of the greatest piano-artists in history. Already at 12 she was adorable and her play emotional and masterly. I really love her.
Today she is like a dream, a dream-angel, a bit unearthly. And yes: When I listen to her, I can feel, that I am not alone. Her play meets my ears and through that we are connected in a way. I know her (from what she does), of course she does not know me, but nevertheless there is one thing which connects us: the music.
rarely do you see someone so young who can play with such poise and can hold this together so well. Many kids can play this but they just play it too fast without any musical understanding or they just fall apart here and there. Great job !
Yuja's timing is superb, thanks to her dad. I saw her two times last week in Amsterdam. She is amazing. This movie is new for me, WOW, she started playing at 6 years old. A genius.
Ron Joosten This is a video. Blockbuster US films are "movies", usually works of fiction. Even documentaries are called documentary films, not documentary movies. 🤓
I first saw this video in about 10 years ago, before I knew she was already a famous pianist. Actually this is a series of teaching videos and she played not only this one. I really enjoyed listening her performance as a guideline to help me improve. Her performance is absolutely perfect and I always feel that I'm the duckling while she is the swan. My cousin studied piano when she was little. She once had a chance to play music on a concert with Yuja Wang. That was almost 20 years ago and the only thing my cousin remember is that Yuja was younger but the music she played was much harder than my cousin. My grandma still has the program of the concert and I guess now it is more valuable for us with Yuja Wang's name.
All I can think of is that in the intervening 14 years since this performance, she's memorised miles of notes that has given hours and hours of pleasure to those of us not fortunate enough to have been entrusted with such monumental talents as she has.
@@gonzalo4658 Yes; in the awareness of one's gift, the willingness to hone that prodigious talent and joyfully affording the lesser mortals immense pleasure they could not otherwise have given themselves.
Her precision and feel for the music are already apparent. It is amazing to see how precise her finger movements are. It is easy to imagine what the future would hold. It has to be an inborn talent.
There is a Greek saying 'You can tell a beautiful day from the morning'. Well this was the morning for this great pianist. Her video of the Prokofiev Piano Concerto #2, is unequaled. May she continue offering us the fruits of her great art. Thank you for posting.
What is amazing in this recording is that she has a personal style already, a quite decisive attitude, a firm personality, and the dynamics of the Sonata are like chiseled in stone, the rhythm is perfect (see WJE37FCSM0's comment), and the diction is that of an adult. Then listen to the 2nd movement, how she carves out the melody of this simple score, where there are almost no notes (or as Svjatoslav Richter once remarked in an interview in German with Johannes Schaaf: 'Mozart-aber es ist fast nichts da…'). Then also see the perfect legato she plays in the 2nd movement, without the help of pedal, which for a child of that age is a real feat for usually the hands are not yet strong enough for a real 'singing' legato, also called bel canto. But you see it here, all is there, and her hands are quite developed for a girl of her age. I have listened to many children playing piano, but this girl of 'under 12' plays like a master. Where will she go in her life? I agree with Ariel Widhibrata that she may become the best pianist of the 21st century-anyway it would not surprise me at all...
I just saw her in concert tonight. She's now 21, and beautiful. I've never seen anyone play so well. (And I've seen many talented pianists). We will be hearing more about this girl in the future. Simply amazing.
Totally agree, actually I think that the simplicity and straightness of the piece makes it impossible to "make up" as people usually do with Chopin or classical more complicated sonatas, what you play is what you´ve got, there´s no place for bullshit in this piece...
Mozart is what every beginner thinks is easy and every professional thinks is hard. I don't play a lot of piano, but every time I've tried, I become frustrated by how every tiny mistake in Mozart sticks out like a sore thumb. I find the second movement in this especially annoying. Listen to Mitsuko Uchida and it really comes to life. When played by an amateur... it sounds like crap. Leave it to Mozart to torture musicians centuries after his death...
If you would ask me how she became so really super good some years later (and she was good back then ) I would say that the secret is tempo , is quiet amazing how she played with a steady tempo from the beguining till the end, now that is the way to practice.
We can not forget her teacher GuangRen Zhou. The first chines people who reward international piano prize,she hurt her finger when she move a piano ,as though she can not play piano,she want to help more people to play piano.GuangRen Zhou although is YunDi Li 's teacher.
Laurent Pingault I believe Yuja’s teacher was Ling Yuan and her husband Zhao Pingguo was Lang Lang’s teacher when he was at the conservatory in Beijing. But yes Ling&Zhao’s daughter is a pianist
What is really striking is how fast she adjusts to coming moves in this piece. You see many kids at this age struggle to keep up in tempo and they lack preparation for what is to come. When looking at Yuja it seems as though she has oceans of time.
A prodigy with this level of technique and particularly this degree of musical sophistication at such a young age is rare indeed. Mozart comes to mind, and maybe Liszt. Once in a generation, or several generations.
This is amazing, even if it was an adult playing, it would be still amazing! However, I agree with some of the comments, she has already developed a wonderful style and personality, wonderful!
this is so ridiculously good. I find it hard to believe anyone who negged this has ever played the piano. This is as perfect as it gets when it comes to this piece. Easily one of the best versions of this on youtube. Her technique is out of this world
Awesome interpretation, best I ever heard on the internet. Holy Jesus! Especially the second movement. I am sure Mozart was looking down from paradise applauding while she played this.
+Ches C. There is much more Wang can do with the 2nd movement. It lacks phrasing and depth. Listen to Mitsuko Uchida play 545 2nd movement and hear the difference between Wang and a seasoned professional.
Unless you are comparing Yuja to Ms. Uchida at age 11 or so your comment is not relevant. Ms. Uchida is one of the best Mozart players on the planet but she is 67 years old now!
Uh, Piano Man said this was the best interpretation on the Internet - "especially the second movement". Opinons can't be right or wrong as a rule, but I'll make an exception here. He's wrong! So it's not unfair to bring Uchida's excellent interpretation into this. Obviously Yuja at 11 couldn't hope to equal that level of emotional depth. But today of course, her 3rd movement of Hammerklavier alone shows what she can bring to a moody piece.
Yuja has grown into the most master piano performer ever. As a piano bench has been my second home for many, many, years, I can tell you no one even comes close to her precision in all of her music!
I think my piano teacher is better than her. She did her grade 10 exam when she was ten. Yuja Wang is doing grade seven under twelve. My teacher finished ARCT when she was twelve!
Helen YIN And your teacher carried on improving as did Yuja Wang to become is a worldwide star who plays all over the world to acclaim with all the best Orchestras of the world with a wide selection of music just like Yuja Wang has .....as if !! There is always someone on RUclips who claims that they can play better or know someone who can play better than the very best performers in the world like Yuja Wang. If that is the truth , then why are these unknown Geniuses not on the stage performing and earning vast sums of money themselves ?
Helen YIN I bet your piano only teaches piano currently, whereas Yuja is touring the planet giving spectacular concerts. Like the saying goes: those who can do. Those who can't teach.
Helen YIN Who cares? People progress at different rates, and this is not one of Yuja's good performances. She is phenomenal now, and there are very few who are better, ARCT or (for the rest of the world) not.
yuja is the best child prodigy i have ever seen. her piano playing is so good it almost unreal. . and i've seen all the other asians on youtube too.....they are good, but yuja's playing even as a little kid just blows me away. and she was the cutest little kid too = >
That was so good, I was so moved by a piece I've heard so many times without a single drop of a feeling... Yuja Wang has supernatural powers (or an incredibly unique talent)
I reckon to have spent about 2 years trying to learn this on the Piano and, here we have a young lady showing just how it's done but, with class and graceful elegance. Wow! my deepest respect to you. A natural genius.
Yuja Wang is one of the best pianist today. She is now 25 and plays brilliantly! No one here need criticize this performance. You only can dream of playing like her now.
Hey you guys, she is now 23 y/o, and she plays all around the world, she is incredible, and so busy, she is seen everywhere almost at the same time so much that people says they're five of her, I saw her 3 weeks ago at the Kravis center in West Palm FL, had a picture taken with her and myself, she's so cute and yet a beautiful young artist, I love her and her playing !!....
LVader20: I totally agree! Speed is not the maker of great pianists, but style and actually living the piece does! I'm an amateur, but I enjoy playing the small pieces and parts of some others that I can, because I live within the tunes I play... and I enjoy living within such beautiful music. This performance absolutely proves my point: a young child playing such a cute piece of epic music from a great composer... absolute perfection :)
Heard her and saw her last weekend in Toledo playing the Tchaikovski 1st. Out of this world; she played it like no other and gave it new life. She signed a CD for me after the concert. She is out of this world gorgeous, too. I wish she would record and post to RUclips Chopin etudes Op 10 No 1 and Op 25 No 1.
She played excellent since little child, now also UMi Garrett plays like that, and does not even need to see the musical notes, she memorizes everything, in 90% of her performances. BOth are great, my 2 favorite pianists.
What Traceur13 is saying is that you can basically find out how to learn to play any instrument, read sheet music, etc., by simply searching the internet. All you need is an instrument and it's possible to teach yourself through helpful sites in the internet.
Yes, it was originally titled "Easy Sonata for Beginners" by people when they found it. Then they tried playing it...and trust me, I've played it, it's freaking hard!!!
I agree with you. Emotional interpretation doesn't need over act of posture or arm dancing. It comes form inside and it can express by heart, sounds, weight and the eyes too.
My god this girl is amazing, I mean her hands in motion to me seem so precise and without a wasted motion that it could be comparable to a machine's precision
I love watching this for a few moments and then watch the video of her playing Prokofiev's Concerto No. 2....it's actually funny seeing that jump in time so fast.
I agree. Her first movement was good, the second lacks depth and the third was a little too fast and could do with lighter playing. But she was a child! Definitely the best version by anyone her age I've seen on RUclips. She's since become frighteningly good. I watched a video of her playing Petrushka the other day. Fantastic stuff. That thing is complete murder.
SharonGuitar500 The second mvt lacks what, did you say? Depth? Try another listen. Metronomic perhaps, but doing that & managing to capture Mozart's art nonetheless is why she has grown to unquestionable greatness.
You are right. However, there is no distinct line between how much is "forcing, very early" and "not forcing, not early." In Yuja Wang and myself, the parents do not force at all, but assist their kids to grow with full potention. I am now not a famous pianist, but I can enjoy piano more than most of people who have not been forced to learn Piano, as been forced to go to school.
I had seen this when I was 6.My mother told that Wang play piano very very well.I thought one day I can play piano well like her.Now,I will never like her,because of some reasons I gave up.I am so sad,because I love music ,piano....
this is so ridiculously good. I find it hard to believe anyone who negged this has ever played the piano. This is as perfect as it gets when it comes to this piece. Easily one of the best versions of this on youtube.

it might sound easy for many.. but it takes extreme practice plus talent to play like THAT

Ikr she’s so cool
You’re literally everywhere😅
yes
It’s a shame she didn’t perform more of the Mozart Sonatas, this is absolutely precious playing.
She was delightfuly talented then, she is a great pianist now, she will eventually become one of the greatest players of the 21st century
how? how can a child so young put so much prescence and passion into this piece? remarkable

She played excellent since little child, now also UMi Garrett plays like that, and does not even need to see the musical notes, she memorizes everything, in 90% of her performances. BOth are great, my 2 favorite pianists.
I just love it. And it is slow and so beautiful. Thank you so much.
I love the playing.
Her control of tempo is so much more stable here than in her typical performances.
I enjoy this performance moreso than the performances of some older, more experienced pianists. Very good!
totaly LOVE HER!!!
she could play so wonderful at such young age, really amazing! she's a genius
OMG! i love playing this song!!!!
What Traceur13 is saying is that you can basically find out how to learn to play any instrument, read sheet music, etc., by simply searching the internet. All you need is an instrument and it's possible to teach yourself through helpful sites in the internet.
To be born with this ability and it encouraged to all its greatness is truly . . . awesome!
Yes, it was originally titled "Easy Sonata for Beginners" by people when they found it. Then they tried playing it...and trust me, I've played it, it's freaking hard!!!
wow!!! She's amazing!!! and making it looks so easy to play.
A huge BRAVO !!...Thanks young gifted girl.
yujia, i love you.
ITS YUJA
+cathy Lu Wang Yu Jia. that is the correct.
+cathy Lu ITS YUJIA. American didn't use correct pin yin
+Li Kevin well,I'm Asian and
Game 'n' More! are you chinese
I remember playing this piece when I was around 10-11 years old :) Good memories. She performs it beautifully.
Aparte de ser una excelente artista, es HERMOSA. BRAVO YUJA!!!
I agree with you. Emotional interpretation doesn't need over act of posture or arm dancing. It comes form inside and it can express by heart, sounds, weight and the eyes too.
Amazing!
Her timing is impeccable.
Unbelieivable amazing
So awesome!
I played this piece many years ago, not an easy piece to play, she played so clean, wonderful trill.
she was born to bless us with music..
My god this girl is amazing, I mean her hands in motion to me seem so precise and without a wasted motion that it could be comparable to a machine's precision
Beautiful...and well played. Keep playing....
Beautifully played!
Absolutely the finest version of this sonata.
you are the best yuja!!
I love watching this for a few moments and then watch the video of her playing Prokofiev's Concerto No. 2....it's actually funny seeing that jump in time so fast.
Best version in RUclips.
certainly not! it just a child playing,lack of maturity!
+lilia poustovoytova actually the comment "lack of maturity " is rude because you don't know how good she play then to now
i react on your description BEST VERSION ON RUclips! she certainly grow up and master her performance skills,but not on this video...agree?
I agree. Her first movement was good, the second lacks depth and the third was a little too fast and could do with lighter playing. But she was a child! Definitely the best version by anyone her age I've seen on RUclips. She's since become frighteningly good. I watched a video of her playing Petrushka the other day. Fantastic stuff. That thing is complete murder.
SharonGuitar500 The second mvt lacks what, did you say? Depth? Try another listen. Metronomic perhaps, but doing that & managing to capture Mozart's art nonetheless is why she has grown to unquestionable greatness.
It`s look like I hear Mozart first time! He was i child in his soul.
You are right. However, there is no distinct line between how much is "forcing, very early" and "not forcing, not early." In Yuja Wang and myself, the parents do not force at all, but assist their kids to grow with full potention. I am now not a famous pianist, but I can enjoy piano more than most of people who have not been forced to learn Piano, as been forced to go to school.
FANTASTIC!!!
I start the piano lessons cause of this video!
A superstar in the making ....
Wow, that is the best I've ever heard! We've also heard and watched you last year at Frostburg Maryland. You are great!
You are sooo incredible!
I had seen this when I was 6.My mother told that Wang play piano very very well.I thought one day I can play piano well like her.Now,I will never like her,because of some reasons I gave up.I am so sad,because I love music ,piano....
