- Sergei Babayan (b. 1961) made this passionate recording in 1992. The album contains 16 of Mendelssohn's "Songs Without Words" and four Schubert Song Transcriptions by Liszt.
Normal people: rubato in two hands in same time
Professionals: rubato in one hand while the other is in tempo
Babayan: rubato in each voice!
Love how he allows the voice part to float away from and drift back to the accompaniment part - independent rubato for each part rather than a single approach to both parts.
Absolutely stunning voicing, melody line and phrasing. Just wow!
Fun fact: sergei babayan is trifonov’s teacher!
And also Josh Wright’s who also competed in the international Chopin competition
Excellent Schubert, excellent Liszt, excellent Babayan. Everything perfect
Fábio Palma perfectly true comment
babayan is surreal.
Impeccable voicing.
His chords are so sonorous. Wow!
voiced sublimely
Wow. Hands down the best version I have heard yet.
Boris Bloch's best
It is so interesting to listen with the score - in a few playes Babayan decides to completely ignore the dynamic markings - sometimes there is no perceivable dynamic difference between forte and the following pianissimos. I'm not saying it as a criticism, it's just an observation - it is good to have different, individual interpretations. Babayan's is fantastic, one of the best.
Meravigliosa versione "malinconica" con una velocità che permette di comprendere benissimo il fraseggio!
Bravissimo! 👏👏👏❤️
When others play this as music and notes Babayan plays it as a human drama.
One of my favorite songs transcribed by my favorite composer
Absolutamente insuperable 👏
This is the first time I see notated Rubato!
Babayan the legend.
Stupenda esecuzione!

How interesting to combine a great pianist's music with my own vocal line. I have to slow down, keep together with a new collaborator. It is a challenge! And unlike a music score normally, there is no separate vocal line to follow, so you must know this music vocally - perfectly.
Babayan is an Armenian pianist 👍
Poor Gretchen! A tormented soul, indeed.
Anyone have Printable PDF sheet music of this? Would be GREATLY appreciated

@@Pianifico thank you!
Someone kept poking a stick into the spokes of the spinning wheel.
I think moving a bunch of the melody's/lyrics' down beats to the 2nd 16th note of the measure was a mistake. They should hit at the start of the measure like the original song. It detracts from the rhythmic flow. And if there was ever a piece that's supposed to crank along *at tempo* without a bunch of hesitation and rhythmic ambiguity, it's this one.
This is a Liszt transcription. If anything, blame Liszt. The original Schubert lied flows smoothly in rhythm.
The reason why Liszt did that is for technical reasons. The singing note and the accompaniment note are too close to each other. Easier to just combine them otherwise the pianist cannot make it stand out as beautifully as Babayan did.

I get both sides of it now! You see the wheel as a representation of her emotional flux, representing the ebb and flow of her heart. I have always viewed this piece as Gretchen using the constistent rhythm of the wheel to focus herself, to hold it together, to not break down as she is so torn. Kind of like stress cleaning :) Thank you for the other perspectives!
Oh yeah, it was definitely Liszt's decision :) Shubert's blameless in my little accusation.
It's one of those damned if you do and damned if you don't things. If it had been on the beat, then the inner voice would strike the same melody note immediately after, which is not such a great sound either (and makes it close to impossible to sustain the melody note with finger pedal.) That being said, I think the effect of the melody note being off the beat largely disappears if you play fast enough (faster than this recording. Babayan is an incredible pianist, but I think the tempo here is too slow and really pronounces the effect of the offbeat melody notes.)
Excellent. But you must not listen to Yuja Wang before.... Much better....
Too late :(
Oh come on.
R Che are you serious..
lets agree on: both are exceptional and wunderful!!
babajan is in a different league than yuja wang, you ears seem to be only impressed by speed!
So bad, like if a marshmallow played the song... Weinerlich...
