What a pleasure to have such non-fussy camera work. No fade-ins/outs, no double exposures, no irrelevant pans to the decoration on the ceiling, no multiple split images and no non-vertical shots. Just let Schumann do the talking. The good ol' days !!
I couldn't agree more. A camera director who wants to serve the music rather than his own ego. No hideous intrusive close-ups of the performer's sweaty brow either, and no frantic changes of camera angle every two seconds. Today's video directors are all schooled in the cess-pit of television, have not a musical bone in their body, and think they're filming a football match or a riot on the streets. ARTE Verbier Festival, Chopin Competition, I'm talking about you.
Marvelous! How does one person memorize so many musical notes and play so elegantly and beautifully? Wonderful Schumann, excellence conductor George Hurst, supreme Claudio Arrau! Bravo to the orchestra, too. A+++++❤🎉
Diese Aufnahme des Konzertes von Schumann zeigt deutlich, wie gut Arrau das Stipendium für ein Studium in Deutschland und der Unterricht bei Martin Krause am Sternschen Konservatorium in Berlin getan hat. Er ist Musiker geworden, will sagen,er hat die Werke der großen deutschen Komponisten großartig gespielt, voller Musikalität und Empfindung und erfüllter Sinngebung. Somit hat er die Grundlage erhalten, einer der größten und glänzendsten Klavierinterpreten zu werden, die die Welt zu bieten hat.
Schumann's Piano Concerto in A minor is a delicate composition, full of romantic and emotional passages, as well as passionate moments. It requires someone like Claudio Arrau to bring it to life in the special manner in which he almost always does it and delivers it, in the manner that Schumann himself would want it in the open, most likely. This live concert, as orchestrated, and aged as it is, delivers it well!
The early 1960s saw Arrau at his artistic peak. Here we witness a performance of measured intensity and subtlety, free of empty gestures and irritating mannerisms. Many of todays young pretenders should take note.
I think this is the best version of the Schumann Concerto I have heard. Argerich performs this wonderfully but so powerfully I think it losses something...Arrau plays it like he is holding a baby bird! Such grace and fantastic touch! His feeling for what is supposed to sound like, and his execution to get there is incredible!
Qué orgullo ver y escuchar a nuestro gran Claudio Arrau interpretando este concierto en la televisión británica, un 1er movimiento elegante y aristocrático, un 2do movto poético y un finale virtuosistico. Nótese que en el 3er movto el.pianista toca de principio a fin, casi sin interrupción, por momentos acompañando a la orquesta quien ejecuta los temas! La mejor versión que he escuchado en mi vida, como dijo alguien.....una joya musical!!!! Oscar Ignacio Olavarría Aqueveque, de Chile, Sudamérica
Arrau's EXCELLENT playing with his own personal interpretation! WOW! He touches every single key on the grand piano with great sensitivity for every single note he is playing, not leaving anything aside. Especially the 2nd movement where he plays with extreme carefulness. A joy to listen to him!
Maravilloso... Me siento endeudado contigo Farookhq17, has subido un verdadero tesoro en joyas musicales del maestro Arrau mediante tu canal y las has puesto a disposición de todos. Muchísimas gracias de todo corazón.
For those who were wondering, Arrau is accompanied by the London Philharmonic Orchestra conducted by George Hurst. The DVD is issued by EMI, it features this and other performances by Arrau, and includes one by Solomon.
Superb is the only word for it. Every note, every nuance, every phrase carefully, lovingly considered, beautifully-thought-out and as perfectly realized as any human could ever hope to do. Arrau was in his prime during the fifties and sixties. Later on his playing grew rather stodgy. I heard him play the Brahms Bb with the Rochester Philharmonic in 1961 or 1962, and it was ABSOLUTE PERFECTION one of the most a amazing musical events I've ever witnessed. And he had the very best SOUND in the business.
Yo are so lucky. But he is extraordinary in his interpretations of Debussy later in his career. He is so thoughtful in all his interpretations, and therefore thought-and feeling-provoking.
Thanks for posting. But er... have you not noticed? There are 50 other musicians on stage apart from Arrau. Pray who might they be? Superb performance, as always from Arrau. He's the perfect antidote to speed-maniacs like Argerich, he lets us hear the music.
And yet he's able to play faster than those speed maniac if he wants to... He actually played very fast when he was young, then his teacher and father figure (martin krause) died and he went through a very long psychoanalysis, he started playing much slower around that time (by his own words, those 2 facts are connected). I recommend the book "conversation with Arrau"
Un orgullo para Chile y para el mundo de la música. La sensibilidad con que acaricia las notas dulces y la apasionada fuerza con que marca la expresividad de Schumann... Un placer escucharlo una y otra vez.
Yes. I bet at least 40 times I've watched Maestro Arrau and the orchestra and Conductor (George Hurst, I believe) collaborate on this wonderful performance! Thank you for all the joy this video brings to everyone fortunate enough to see it and listen to it. Again and again!
Gracias, muchas gracias, por permitirnos compartir el arte de uno de los más grandes pianistas del siglo XX. Lamento que no haya información de la orquesta y el director.
Cláudio Arrau foi simplesmente o maior pianista que a América Latina já possuiu: uma técnica soberba, aliada a uma contenção que dignifica a música, elevando a arte pianística ao seu momento de maior glória. Extraordinário!!!
Mejor sería poder viajar en el tiempo, e ir cuando se estrenó el primer movimiento con Robert Schuman a la dirección y con su Esposa Clara al piano. Pero eso no se puede.
Tremendo artista Claudio Arrau. Inolvidable maestro de piano ( que tocaba de memoria) , más impresionante aún. Gran concierto y majestuosa orquesta y dirección.
The conductor to be lauded too is George Hurst, who we lost last year. So the orchestra then would be the BBC Northern/Philharmonic or BBC Scottish. Hurst, a great conductor with no airs, was therefore greatly "under-rated". But not by those who heard his performances or played with him! If you ARE known by the company you keep/inspire, having Andrew Davis, John Eliot Gardiner and Simon Rattle as students is not bad. Incredible technique-and all the people who worked with him adored him.
his wrists are like snakes movin around the keyboard, his flexibility is awesome very virtusic and poetry at the same time,maybe something like frank liszt
More colorful beautiful piano sound than Arrau or Pollini or Argerich=Wilhelm Kempff Emil Gilels Radu Lupu Artur Rubinstein Vladimir Ashkenazy Grigory Sokolov!,More genius than Arrau or Pollini or Argerich=Sviatoslav Richter Solomon Cutner Grigory Sokolov Maria Grinberg Stanislav Bunin! More powerful louder than Arrau Pollini Argerich=Mikhail Pletnev!, The Second Loudest ever was Lazar Berman! The 3rd Loudest was Erwin Nyiregyhazi! Horowitz his technique attack better than Arrau's Pollini's Argerich's technique attack!!
I adore this piece Arrau, he is so technically on point and carries this marvelously without overpowering the whole piece, it is subtle but he knows when to bring it out and when to stay subdued. I still think Helene Grimaud’s version the best ;)
Michael Pak you can’t put in the same level Arrau and Helene Grimaud!!! He is the master of masters and she is an amateur student compared to him ,... no discussion the facts speak for themselves !!!!

True, and when you hear his breathings on the recordings, you know he's living his interpretation intensely ! He's just keeping it for himself
Great comment : I feel just the same!
A true master. Heard him several times with symphony orchestras--so refined--no distracting gestures.
Probably the most beautiful piano concerto ever written. Just a master piece played by a master of the piano. Magnificent.
Beauty without limits. Historical performance for the next generations.
Absolutely the best version
I think this is the best version of the Schumann Concerto I have heard. Argerich performs this wonderfully but so powerfully I think it losses something...Arrau plays it like he is holding a baby bird! Such grace and fantastic touch! His feeling for what is supposed to sound like, and his execution to get there is incredible!
I agree....
I think you´re right. Claudio Arrau´s connection with the composer is unique, a phenomen, a profound and delicate bond almost no pianist ever had.
I agree. Probably the ultimate version.
Agree. Plus belle qu'argrich
Argerich studied with Arrau
Arrau ovvero la nobiltà in musica. Grandissimo musicista!
I've had this music in my head for the last 4 days.. singing it on hikes or working ... I HAD to listen to it. This performance was magnificent.

One of the very very great pianists .I never was a real fan,but listening to this, makes me realize how great he was.
I have the exact same feelings about Arrau.
The Master of the Masters !!!
And I understand that in choices there is nothing written ( just look this post, 38 dislike)...But definitely Arrau was a Genius...
You are very right! I used to have the same feeling about him.
@@coquimbo53For sure... *He was!*
What a Beautiful performance by Mr. Arrau! And a masterful performance of the Conductor and Orchestra....Thank you..John Rapp

arrau is very strong powerful but very romantic and sensitive. so fast speed and exactly touch. very nice play.... i love him very much
Just listen every single notes. sublime....... very human... Great maestro....

I absolutely agree. Everytime I hear his playing, it seem like I sit next to him. Very earthy. He always be my favorite pianist.
Yo are so lucky. But he is extraordinary in his interpretations of Debussy later in his career. He is so thoughtful in all his interpretations, and therefore thought-and feeling-provoking.

¡Qué maravilla! Creí que no había registro alguno, así, de nuestro Claudio Arrau!
El mejor pianista de su epoca junto a Arthur Rubinstein
Maravilloso Arrau!
Sublime. Du très grand Arrau.
A beautiful performance.

Perfection achieved. Wonderful!
Arrau is the best. Period
The two most beautiful HANDS!!!!
Grazie Farookhq... meraviglioso
MAN!! That third Movement is out of this world!
Man, that last movement's tough! Besides a few short breaks, the pianist almost plays non-stop.
MAESTRO ARRAU.INOLVIDABLE SU TALENTO SU EXPRESIVIDAD Y EMPATIA CON CUALQUIER OBRA QUE ABORDASE.
Claudio is my hero, both as an artist and a man. Thank you for presenting this proof of his artistry and dedication. 🌹
Wonderful!
How the hell does Arrau play all those perfect notes and insanely eccentric phrases all live without one false note!
practice practice practice! which makes perfect!
Well, he misses a few notes here and there, but it doesn't matter. His interpretation more than makes up for it.

Thank you so much for this lovely piece. You made my day.
Uno dei grandi pianisti del ‘900...ottimo Schumann!
El mejor interprete de este concierto magnifico,y de toda la obra de Schumann.
Soy de Chile, fuera de serie!! Excelente! !!!!
ISABEL ARRAU... Y algún parentesco con él maestro?
Siempre ubo en Disco.
This is ridiculously good
Gracias por compartir esta obra de arte.
his wrists are like snakes movin around the keyboard, his flexibility is awesome very virtusic and poetry at the same time,maybe something like frank liszt
That made me laugh!
beethoven => czerny => liszt => krause => arrau
the transcendental heritage !
ohhh... maestro, eres aun arriba , un genio, viva arrau, viva CHILE.-
D yo era amiga del profesor Silva que tocaban Los ejercicios junto con Claudio Arrau también un grand profesor vivía en Neuyork
Que bueno, hetedaste cosas de un linaje musical muy especial! Saludos desde Argentina
Esta es uns joya de video. Mis eternos agradecimientos.
A truly great performance. And it's good to finally have it on one page and in sync.
Who are the conductor and orchestra?
snaaptaker ...London Philharmonic Orchestra..conducted by George Hurst.
@Farookhq17, I can't live without the opus 111 1970 paris radio broadcast - is there a way to find it or buy it from somewhere? desperate for that.
Thank you for the wonderful observation.
My opinion of Mr. Arrau's skills continues to increase...
El mas grande sudamericano q haya existido, con perdon de los Libertadores y los grandes republicanos del XIX
Excelente!!!
What's that "bang" at 21:56?
Arrau plays this concert very well. Which orchestra and which conductor are performing in this old ,but beautifully played Schumann Concerto?
Barbara Nettesheim ...London Philharmonic Orchestra...conducted by George Hurst.
Durchdringung der Musik des Komponisten p u r ! Einfach einzigartig der Pianist wie die Aufnahme mit diesem Orchester.
WOW
The theme of the first movement looks (a little) to the song "Besame mucho", only 1 or 2 bars of the theme or vice versa would be better comparison
Great, compatriot Claudio Arrau, a pride for our country Chile
Plagio besame besame mucho como si fuera está noche... plagio
