A fascinating glimpse of these great pianists tackling one of the hardest pieces ever written, requiring tremendously agile finger work and a super fast octave technique ! It is very clever how you have edited it so as to give a sense of continuity in the music. Thanks Kim for this very exciting musical presentation ! Have a restful Sunday with your rabbits ! Warmest greetings, Paul
Dear Paul, your review means a lot, coming from a great pianist/composer whose music and musicianship I admire very much. I love all the seven pianists I featured in this video, they are all exceptional. Thank you for your visit and an outstanding review!
Thank you for posting this video . I just found this recently and really enjoyed . Actually Ashkenazy is one of my favourite pianist too . Also now Nobuyuki . - I found him on You Tube . Nobuyuki played many piano concertos with Ashkenazy (as a conductor) , and Ashkenazy said Nobuyuki is one of his favourite young pianist. He praised Nobuyuki is so musical and so clear , so organic and his pure heart creates beautiful sounds . It’s pleasure to watch two of my favourite pianists play together .
You're welcome and thank you very much for watching and for the fantastic comment! I also love Ashkenazy but haven't seen or heard him playing La Campanella. I like what he said about Nobuyuki Tsujii, it's so true.
What a lovely edit. All these people are absolutely superhuman, but I think the Kissin performance is my favourite. And Valentina Lisitsa should be here too.
I considered adding Valentina also, but her version was faster so didn't flow smoothly with the others. Thank you for watching and for the nice comment.
i like yundi's and kissin's version best, sharp and clear staccato with superb control of volume. even it is pp melody is still clear. it kills me to hear the transition from 3:29 to 3:30, really dislike lang lang's interpretation. some pianists let left hand play too loud, especially at the coda.
My favourites are the interpretations from Yundi Li, Trifonov, and Kissin. That hair on Kissin LOL. At first I thought Tsujii's movements were "too possy" like those of Lang Lang's, but then I looked him up and and wow! He's blind! Immediate total respect. How does his fingers know where to jump like that without seeing? And btw, you did an amazing job with the transitions. ♪
Glad that we share the same favorites. Hahaha...I have seen Kissin with even bigger hair. :) I admire Tsujii's ability to play so exceptionally well as a blind person. He is amazing!! Thank you very much for the fantastic review, Evellial!!! I am happy to have your on my channel. :)
@@MelodiousHeart1 After I left that comment, I spent the next 3 hours on YT just watching Tsujii play different pieces, and now he's one of my favourite pianists! The way he played Chopin's Nocturne in C# minor & Debussy's Claire De Lune was out of this world. ❤️❤️❤️
@@DrawWithEvellial Ohhh...I am so happy that Tsujii is one of your favorite pianists now!! He is one of my favorites also. I've seen almost all of his performance videos on RUclips and love the two you mentioned, along with his Liebestraum No. 3 by Liszt. I get tears just thinking about his performances.
Too many mistakes in Yundi Li's performance. Way too many. Insert Beethoven quote, sure, but the others are able to be just as musical while not having the density of technical mistakes.
Hi Kim! Great to see you again with this great compilation of sterling performances from the "greats"!! La Campanella is almost a rite of passage for the top level concert pianists and truly a sparkling work for the virtuoso! All phenomenal pianists you presented here, but I do favor Lang Lang....no one more crisp and emotional in his play in my humble opinion! Just as good for me is the great Nobuyuki Tsujii....he FEELS it!! BRAVO! ~Jackie
Fantástico video Melodious. También eres un artista en pegar esta joya musical de varios famosos pianistas en un solo video. Gran trabajo, felcitaciones.
Εxciting playing.!!!Congrats dear Kim.!! Everything is enchanting and wonderful in this fascinating race who runs the pianist with his fingers on the keys. Each time the keys hitting the notes come to reward him and his approval of spectators with a warm applause. The pianist is so committed to this game all his senses are there, keeps the keys loud and it runs over the notes.. At the end he is waiting for the big applause. Greetins from GREECE. Vasilis.
It's so nice to see other Greeks who are interested in classical music. I, as a 13 year old, am usually embarrassed to admit my taste in music to my friends. I love this piece!!!
Dear Kim, how I enjoyed this video ! The same piece, but so different interpretations ! I think everyone has his favorite, but it is impossible to say objectively which pianist plays better .It is a very subjective appreciation ! .. of course I have my favorite too ... but I can only say that I like more.. not that that pianist is better ! Wish You a wonderful Sunday, my friend ! Many warm greetings, Arlette
Oh, dear Arlette, I just saw your comment here, sorry for a super-late reply. Thank you so much for your time and a great comment! I always appreciate your support!
All seven extraordinaries piano players, but this make get stunned about Valentina Lisitsa, there is a video of she rushing the Campanella 30% after 3 hours of concert...
This got me so excited... and then I was let down... and then I was well-pleased. Excited first because I thought was going to hear 7 different pianists play the whole thing so I could compare them (something I had already done with three pianists). Disappointed that instead seven different pianists played portions of one hearing of La Campanella. Well-pleased to hear how seamlessly you were able to blend the different artists so that if not watching one would think one artist was playing the whole thing! Extra pleased to see you included Nobuyuki Tsujii, one of my favorite pianists. His recording of Rachmaninoff's 2nd Piano Concerto is my all-time favorite rendition of that concerto. The fact that he can play so well with great pathos and interpretation while swaying and turning his head constantly and almost never missing a note brings tears to my eyes. We are "fearfully and wonderfully made...and that my soul knoweth right well." (Psalm 139:14)
Oh rats, I lost your heart by editing my comment (din't know that would happen). I noticed I had left off the word "head" while descibing Nobuyuki's movement while playing. Oh well, I appreciate the heart comment. Many hearts to you for all the great videos you post to enrich our lives!
@@libertypastor1307 I should tell you that I give the heart only once per comment, so please don't edit your comment again. Just kidding! ;-) A comment as remarkable as yours deserves many hearts! I really love your comment and read it twice. Nobuyuki Tsujii is one of my favorite pianists also, but I haven't seen his performance of my all-time favorite piano concerto yet, so I just watched it and absolutely loved it. His performance was so brilliantly clean and soulful, I had tears near the end and had more tears when I saw the conductor hugging him after the performance. I am so glad that you mentioned it. Thank you very much for your exceptional and insightful comment! I really appreciate it.
@@MelodiousHeart1 Heart, heart, heart. I also recognize your respect for Nobuyuki in that you took the time, as I did, to spell his name right! We need a lot more people in this world like you. Thank you, again.
The Cats Meow!! What extraordinary talent/s!!! Nice 1 KimmyKins ;) thx for sharing! 👌 gotta exit b4 I have a ❤ heart attack lol ...stay with it all smiles here my true friend :)
Thank you for sharing this Absolutely beautiful video and the awesome music excellent performance and all play this so beautiful love it. My dear friend have a beautiful new WeekWarm hugs from my heart and much ԼƠƔЄ from Huggie xoxo
Ikr? It’s mind-blowing how he is able to play such a challenging piece so amazingly even with the challenge he faces. Truely a miracle of a pianist and human being!

Seven souls tell another's story in their own way. Marvelous!
What a wonderful comment! Thank you!
I absolutely adore the smile Alice Sarah Ott gives at 1:02 , always great to see a pianist enjoying what they’re playing
Amazing job of editing this together.
Thank you very much!!
The way she brings Evgeny Kissin back for the ending🔥
Wonderful choice and great selection.
Oh how I love the Piano.....it's a most magical instrument, it conveys passion, emotion and power.
You're so right. Glad that you love the piano too.
For whatever reason when Alice plays I feel something. Others may be impressive but she brings me to tears at times
Thank you for posting this video .

Bravissimo !
awesome peace...awesome execution...
Thank you for watching and for the kind comment.
아름다운 피아노 연주곡 잘 들었읍니다~감사합니다~🎵🎹🌿🍀☘🌹🌹☘🍀🌿❤❤
Yundi Li.. a tiny bit slower but he has the best colours. What a wonderful editing!

Alicia de Larrocha is missing! Lang Lang admitted he was very inspired by her version.
Cziffra should be there if Liszt is played. hard to find video though.
Alice Sarah Ott Kissin and Behzod👍🥰
Bravo!

...and Yuja Wang?
I searched Yuja's La Campanella but couldn't find it.
yeah maybe Yuja Wang doesn't have a posted performance of this piece yet.
Behzod Abduraimov and Trifonov
3:09 shaggy plays la campanella
Behzod Abduraimov is the best one imo
Great !
For me ; Daniil Trifonov for the power of his fingers.
Nobuyuki Tsujii is blind?
What a beast of a pianist. I would to see him someday in concert.
Ikr?
It’s mind-blowing how he is able to play such a challenging piece so amazingly even with the challenge he faces.
Truely a miracle of a pianist and human being!
Sublime. Ese nan sabia ve😁👍👍👍🌈💕
Lang Lang and Kissin!
This is mad - where is Listsa’s performance? It is by far the best
Right!?
Molto bella la Campanella suonata da 7 pianisti per una comparazione tra loro!
Evgeny nadie como él.
Estoy de acuerdo.
3:13 pianist name 📛???
Yundi Li.
No Andre Watts?
Yet the very best - Valentina Lisitsa - but she is not even here?!
Because she is so bad 😂
Daniil clímax !!!!
:))
Another suggestion to keep in mind: ruclips.net/video/R0wmi0y1Geg/видео.html
1:01 pianist name??
Alice Sara Ott
By "great pianists" did you mean "great musicians," "great entertainers," or something else?
何と心憎い！
Valentina only no1
Its funny to see that most pianists are skinny lol, the same like many chefs are fat.
MetaPi
Kissin is THE BEST!!! Lang Lang get out from piano and never come back again..!!
shamshod shukurov why don’t you like Lang Lang
Don't hate
Shame on u
Why don't you get a life.... man!!!! I hope you play much better than him!!!!
What an ignorant moron
