Thank God for Beethoven. This sonata is a marvel, beyond comprehension. Valentina Lisitsa brings out nuances I've never heard before, and it's been many years since I first heard this work. Thank you Valentina!
This is your piece Valentina. I feel that this performance is the definitive performance. Every note you played spoke. Beautiful, loaded with sadness and an unspoken courage. Thank you so much.
This is one of my favorite Beethoven sonatas. Nobody has played it better. Not Ashkenazy. Not Brendel. Not Arrau. Congratulations Val on a fabulous performance! You are at the top of the class.
Your PASSIONATE playing brings out what Beethoven had in mind...reaching the heavens..... thank you so much! You are an angel to bring this music to us....
Thank you, Valentina, for giving us yet another sterling Beethoven Sonata performance. As usual, you're not afraid to play even the most technically difficult pieces in a beautiful and spirited fashion!
Одна из моих самых любимых бетховенских сонат. Слушал ее в разных исполнениях очень много раз. Спасибо огромное за эту запись, очень трогательно получилось.
I've always enjoyed your performances of this Sonata on RUclips (especially the GoPro version a couple of years ago) but nothing compares to the live performance you gave a couple of months ago at Monkton Combe which I was fortunate to witness. The way you played that opening Arpeggio Mysterioso was unforgetable. It hung there resonating in the stillness and total silence of the recital room and everybody was left wondering what is coming next. It is moments like these that makes you appreciate the profundity and the wonder of great music. Thank you for giving us this insight. Your performance was truly magnificent.
That third movement is my favorite Beethoven, I listened to every interpretation I could get my ears on and I like yours best. Really, thank you, thank you, this is absolutely beautiful.
Beethoven was a marvelous musical story teller and you excel in bringing that out in this sonata . The voices are clear, distinct and truthful . This is music at its finest .
Валечка! Наконец-то я дождалась свою «родную» сонату!!!-с ней поступала в то лето в консу....-на консультацию к первому попала к ИгрМхРяб..-(ну ты поняла...)-он прозвал меня тогда внучкой Нильсена...( должна была поступать в Ленинград )-кажется это всё было только вчера......-сейчас слушаю тебя ..-даже прослезилась...вспомнилось все...-тот первый экзамен по специальности- три «5-ки»-Лисица , Юрченко, Янченко..... Ты -такая же молодчина!! Как всегда лучшая!! Крепко обнимаем!!! Пока PS платье -супер!! Ну просто-красотка!!!
miss Valentina ..what an incredible interpretation ...many thanks...i marvel to think how Beethoven conceived this in his mind ..its so awesome ,powerful and timeless ...
Souvent les meilleurs pianistes font souffler la «Tempête » avec brio et c’est tout… Mais avec vous elle gronde et court vraiment dans le vent beethovénien !!! Bravo !
Уважаемая Валентина, спасибо, что радостно наслаждались твоим удивительным талантом в эти темные и грустные дни. Большое спасибо, это очень много значит для меня. Теплое приветствие из Нидерландов.
Never heard so many details in this sonata... Not a surprise but nevertheless... Surprisingly beautifull combination valentina & beethoven... Thank you Valentina
Thank you for a most wonderful performance, Valentina. Listening to this beautiful music helped me to forget my worries about what is happening all over the world!
Не понял, при чём здесь дух эпохи. Бетховен во многом этот дух меняет и ему противится. Он СОЗДАЁТ свой собственный дух, для всех эпох! Но с оценкой исполнения полностью согласен.
@@michailkotin6964 дух эпохи в смысле революционное настроение как самого Бетховена так и целых народов,т.к.на стыке 18 и 19 столетия произошла великая французская революция, Бетховен даже написал 3 симфонию ,в память о Наполеоне,в последствии,переименовав её "В память о великом человеке"
@@Professor694 Всё не так просто, как это описывалось в советских "пособиях". Бетховен был противником революции, потому что она привела к якобинской диктатуре. Он принимал её более или менее хорошо до 1791 г. На Наполеона он возлагал надежды, пока тот не объявил себя императором. А во время войны с Наполеоном был ярым его противником. Но дело не в этом. 17-я соната вообще не про это, а, так сказать, "про Шекспира", как и сам Бетховен писал.
Thanks for sharing the video! Love seeing the whole studio, too. You play it exactly how I hear it in my head! The tone quality you have on the first theme is marvelous. This piece rages with such stormy energy! Excellent rendition.
Dear Valentina! I don't know whether it is the Beethoven sonata or your truly perfect interpretation, in any case, both make me deeply overjoyed when I listen to it, if not addicted, I have to listen to it listen to it again and again. Thank you a thousand times over for performing it here on RUclips. You are truly brilliant! Sorry for my bad english.
Dear Valentina, you've been my piano idol since I found your videos when I was 10 years old. It gives me goosebumps everytime I hear you play. Thank you for so much music!
Dear god, what an extraordinary interpretation. Frightening, seductive, gentle and kind, and doom laden; you have found a range of emotions and passion in this piece that is simply riveting. I have listened to this repeatedly, hearing new depths to the music each time. Your performance is a huge challenge to the listener, exactly as Beethoven would have wanted.
Omg I can't believe I missed this!! I was at studying till 11PM in the night and.. stupid studying ruined my day.. Oh great.. Haha.. Anyway, thank you a lot for another great performance on Tempest!! This is one of my favorite Beethoven sonata to listen to. Thank you very much for satisfying my ears like always :) If you read this long comment, thank you very much! Another comment from a fan from south korea~~!! 😄😄
You are still lucky, once I studied some minutes beyond 22h, when I heard a terrible crash in the direction of the entrance to my flat, only to see big hole in the middle of the door and the very red visage of my always drunk neighbor, holding a giant hammer in both hands...
@@maetes54Oh I see.. Its still hard studying in Korea because they do a lot of work though... Thank you for your reply! It was nice seeing your short story.
С замиранием сердца жду 31-ю и 32-ю (последнюю особенно из-за второй части, после Мацуева и целого ряда других молодых хотелось бы услышать что-то от "новых", что снова вернёт веру в то, что Бетховен - это Бетховен).
Beautiful! Magnifique! Fantastic! You do it perfectly every time! Each and every detail is expressed without hesitation and with every ounce of profundity possible. Bravo, I say, Bravo!!!
Thank you dearly for blessing us all with your art and skill. Videos like yours should always be viral and on TV. I'm mindblown everytime I hear you play!
Thank you Valentina. Shocking performance. Unrestrained tears.

Congratulations Val on a fabulous performance! You are at the top of the class.

Not heard Gulda's, but Annie Fischer's is another wonderful performance, I don't like to compare artists but Lisitsa is right up there with the best
Your PASSIONATE playing brings out what Beethoven had in mind...reaching the heavens.....
thank you so much!
You are an angel to bring this music to us....
Such passion. I've known and played this work for decades but never got under its skin like this
Oh, that third movement is breathtaking. Lovely performance, thank you!
I remember, as an intense teenager, admiring the intensity of this sonata. This is a tell it the way it is sonata.
Der Storm!!! Es regnet in Strömen! Es donnert! Und die Sonne!!!! Durch Strömen! Meine Lieblingspianistin!

Meravigliosa. Again I think " Oh this was the best one. ". Thank You !
Increíble!!! 😍😍😍
Beautiful! I love the clarity with which you bring out the inner voices and the ornamentation, especially in the third movement.
You play that No 17 Sonata like it's magic.
I'm excited for Beethoven: Sonata No.26 in E-flat Major, "Les Adieux" hopefully that's on you list Val.
That's okay, Valentina. We're willing to wait patiently for your always exciting and riveting "Les Adieux".
@@ValentinaLisitsaQOR No problem Val I still enjoy the version you made on April Fools when you had a bad hair day. Remember that video? LOL 😁
I am excited to hear her Interpretation of the Hammerklaviersonata and the 32th Sonata.
How far have you gotten so far?

What a force of nature. Brilliant ! Thanks Valentina

🇧🇷 FANTÁSTICO! 🌹(Бразилия)
🇺🇲 FANTASTIC 👏👏👏
2楽章まで左手を雄弁に振る舞わせ、走りたくなるところをぐっとこらえて、終楽章のNobleで詩的な右手のダンスに繋げる構成が見事だ。全曲のダイナミクスを意図的に抑えていることも楽想に奥行を与えている。
Бетховен в Вашем исполнении шикарен ! Вы прекрасно передаёте дух той эпохи!
