Alexander plays Mozart just as beautifully as he plays Rachmaninoff, Medtner, Tchaikovsky, Beethoven, Prokofiev...and any number of composers' masterpieces. I'm always in awe of his performances...he's a music genius!!
My God! How can anyone complain about perfection? His birthday should be declared a holiday.
Aonde será que Alexander Malofev encontra tanta maturidade interpretativa e perfeição?
Um talento nato, cuidadosamente desenvolvido sim, mas jóia rara, talento indiscutível!
Deus o conserve assim?
É delicioso ouvir um rapaz tão novo e com tanta força interpretativa. Por mim, gostaria que aquela mão esquerda tivesse por vezes um pouco mais de presença. Porém, terá muito tempo para lá chegar. O recorte finíssimo de Richter e as notas mágicas de Arturo Benedetti Michelangelo estão igualmente ao seu alcance.
Performing Mozart can be tricky but not for Alexander. Mozart was a musical genius and so is Alexander.
Absolutely!
Can you compare and contrast Alexander Malefaev with Elisey Mysin in terms of the way they interpret Mozart?
Thank you Russia for producing such a talent! Now he is adored by the whole world!
He’s just what we need in this time of so much turmoil and sickness. He is a balm to my soul and calms me down and I’m able to have a respite from the worries of the day. What a passionate angel has come among us and given such a gift of beauty.
What can one say of this awesome talent! Malofeev is here to stay to give us Joy, Peace and Love through those amazing hands! The hands that have put in thousands of hours of practice and dedication! Another genius from Russia!
Определенно, это МОЦАРТ.....Боже,храни ТАКОГО музыканта......И респект педагогу Елене Владимировне Березкиной.
He is fantastic. He adds passion, color and expression to the music he plays.
This and No. 26 are my absolute favourites of Mozart's piano concerti. Alex played his version the best I've ever heard it performed. Very supportive conductor and great young Chinese orchestra. Fantastic thank you.
Lucky Russia to have such great pianists... and this one is indeed one of the best. Beautiful interpretation
Other counries also have their stars of all ages whom we enjoy greatly. This diversity is a blessing.
@@ЛюбовьПотемина-ш3б Russia has definitely been blessed with more stars...
Я думаю, хорошие пианисты везде есть, где развита культура.
@@ЛюбовьПотемина-ш3б Here is an other STAR! ruclips.net/video/ntkO4TZrYHc/видео.html
I do not agree that Russia is “lucky” to have such great pianists and other musicians. Russia has long experience in recognising great talent in its first bloom, and then in allowing students to make the most of those talents. They have teaching skills on a very organised basis; these skills plus extremely hard work from teachers, institutions and young musicians lead to what we hear tonight. Not one inch of it is blind “luck.” Gilels, Ashkenazy, Horowitz, Kissin ... the list is endless, and all of it the product of hard work such as most of us never dream of.
It appears this prodigy, this genius, has memorized the entire piano repertoire. God bless him. May he rest, from time to time, and occasionally laugh. And may he have a very long life. I watch and listen to him every morning before getting out of bed. And my life has improved immeasurably since I started doing this.
ha ha ha ha ha ! you're funny
jeanne Bourrelly. Stupid comment.
Me too.
I have a nice suggestion Samuel: listen to Alexander Malofeev AND to Ivan Bessonov every other day!
i guess im a bit dyslexic thought you wrote your wife has improved
Alexander’s interpretation is astonishingly mature for his age.
This is simply beautiful. Thank you Alexander Malofeev for your complete dedication to the music.
After hearing him play at 11 on here, now hearing him at 18 and he only gets better, if that is at all possible. What a Brilliant young pianist; and he still plays without a score in front of him! Again Alexander, Bravo!!!
El pianista es maravilloso y da realce a la orquesta que no pasa de ser solo buena. El director, bien.
All great pianists play without score. It is the mediocre who find it necessary to follow dots on paper. Alex plays music.
@Kenneth ...at this performance he was just 17 yo. As of today (2021) he is now 19.
It is normal practice to perform from memory. After learning the work we must commit to memory as the music score would only be a barrier between the music and the performer. He just knows the notes and has consciously memorised them.
Whoa, I didn't even notice!
Талант громаднейший. Дан Богом. Наверняка необыкновенная работоспособность. Умнейшие учителя. Столько волшебства в пальцах. Потрясающе. Спасибо.
@Svetiana ...amen to that
Очень талантливый, молодец! Классно играет!У Александра большое будущее,дай Бог ему здоровья и побед!
If one listens to the wide range of dynamics , the intense emotionally diverse passages that Mozart wrote for the orchestra in this work, one realises what he intended for the soloist - an intention thwarted by the limitations of the harpsichord. These intentions can now be realised with the concert grand piano - and Alexander does just that. A truly 'Mozartian' performance of the highest calibre. I do not know what extraneous forces influenced the jury in this competition, but they certainly failed where Alexander succeeded.
Wow what a passionate and consummate performance by Malofeev sadly let down by a soulless and mechanical orchestral accompaniment. This is how you’d envisage Mozart playing it with energy and liveliness. The performance is all the more remarkable coming from a boy still in his teens. He has an amazing career ahead of him as he adds depth and pathos to youthful passion and energy.
I had a similar feeling about the orchester and conductor, but not sure what it was.
The performance seems re-incarnational - a youngster playing the eternal music of a composer who never grew old - with such freshness and energy - we know it's intention is Mozart's own.
I do not wish to make an invidious comparison. However, I would remind those critics who are unable to stomach Alexander's place among the great pianists of the past because of his age, that Mozart's first documented composition, a Minuet and Trio in G major, is listed as KV 1 and was composed when he was just five years old. He had written 13 symphonies by the time he was 15. I merely mention this to indicate that evaluating Alexander's musical maturity and insights on the basis of his chronological age is simplistic and misguided. He is definitely 'up there' among the greats!
AIALA
I must be missing something. What has Alexander composed? You are bringing Mozart as an example and I just don't see it.
@@jose4877 As you will have read, I was not making a comparison with Mozart in any way, other than his age. I was simply saying that judging the potential of a genius by his age is foolish - thats all.
Oh please. Do we really need a Mozart cliché mini bio? I know you don't mean to make a comparison to Mozart, but this pianist has his critics for valid reasons. I doubt people are criticizing him just because of his age. I for one think he plays a lot of music way too fast, missing out on the musical expression and depth. And I'm quite sure that won't change any time soon.
@Ab Ba OMG. Please just stop. Pressing keys down rapidly on a piano has nothing to do with COMPOSING. Stop the madness!
Лучший из лучших Пианистов. Все гармонично, понимание стиля, виртуозность. Гений- Пианист.
Да!!!!!!
I hope this 17-year old phenom, Alexander Malofeev would keep maturing and improving himself to be one of the greatest legends in the classical piano world.
Sorry the slow and last movement lacks depth of interpretation....correct notes are not anything.
@@henningviljoen5077 He has time.
YES .
@@henningviljoen5077 So you can play it better?
@@henningviljoen5077 Be awfully tiresome if every Mozart # 20 sounded precisely alike.
You have brought so much joy during this dire time of the pandemic. Listening to you is so uplifting. Thank you for all your incomparable music making.
Amadeus Mozart I remember a festival heralding the composer at Lincoln Center where I spent afternoons. Lyrical, Lush, Luminescent your playing a God given gift.
Музыка излучает свет,Александр дарит себя людям,щедрый и любящий,музыка вылетает с кончиков пальцев,храни Господь
Подскажите, какое он занял место ?
Второе место.
@@ANITA-cv8cq Ochen nespravedlivo.
Love Mozart and to listen a young maestro playing his pieces like this, bravooo Alexander!!!
Замечательно играет Саша. Спасибо.Композитора чувствует удивительно.
Исполнение Александра просто завораживает,невозможно оторваться! Брависсимо!!!
Очень правильное определение.Не возможно оторваться.Хочется слушать бесконечно.Поразительное проникновение в замысел композитора.Чудо!!!!!
THANK YOU MALOFEEV. BRAVO FOR EACH YEAR.
Браво!!! Брависсимо!!!
Pure passion and love, is like if he wants the piano talk, beautiful! This kids really really come to this life with that gift. ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
This is the first Mozart I have herd Alexander play. He does with Mozart what he does with every other composer he plays: he raises him from the dead. His flawless technique and deep understanding of the melodic line allows his listener to forget him and encounter the author. He is a truly humble virtuoso. He doesn’t have to prove himself, he lets himself go. And in this case, Morart soars.
Amen!
Only a big,big applause from me!!!
Oh yes!!! Malofeev brings Mozart back to life!! He brings his posture and music in front of us. What fantastic talent and love of music!
He often plays composers I do not like much, like Rachmaninoff, but I listen anyway just for him. When he does play someone I love, like Mozart or Gershwin, it makes my day.
Yes! I feel that he is modest and humble.
HE MAKES ME CRY. HE MAKES ME LOVE HIM WITH EVERY STROKE OF THE KEYS. I LOVE HIM DEEPLY !
😳😳
🙄
There are not words enough suitable to praise this Prodigiuos Pianist: he lives the beauty of the music he plays and I can see that great interpreters of great composers ought to have a very internal link with all that is trascendent. I do pray God to enlighten Alexander Malofeev and thanking Alexander: it is not possible not to realize our souls soar to the Upmost.
Гениальное исполнение Моцарта.
Brings us the joyful and playful character of Mozart's concerto. Bravo!
Sehr überzeugend und sensibel gespielt und auch im klassischem Stil Mozarts !
Haltung an Glenn Gould erinnernd , aber noch schöner gespielt! Großes Bravo !
Bravissimo pour la cadence improvisée magnifiquement , Monsieur Malofeev !
Браво, Сашенька !
Oh how very very lovely. Words simply fail me but thank you from the bottom of my heart.
What a great performance. So inspiring. Thank you.
Это было великолепно!
СЛАВА РОССИИ, КОТОРАЯ ВЫРАСТИЛА ТАКОЙ ПРЕКРАСНЫЙ БРИЛЛИАНТ ДЛЯ ВСЕЙ ПЛАНЕТЫ И ВСЕЙ ВСЕЛЕННОЙ. СПАСИБО, САШЕЧКА ДОРОГОЙ, АНГЕЛОЧЕК НАШ! ДАЙ БОГ ТЕБЕ И ДАЛЬШЕ УСЛАЖДАТЬ НАШИ ДУШИ БОЖЕСТВЕННЫМ ИСПОЛНЕНИЕМ! сПАСИБО! БЛАГОДАРНОСТЬ ВСЕМ, ТО ВЛОЖИЛ ТРУД В ЭТО ДИТЯ МИРА!!!
На счёт мира, а уж тем более вселенной это громко сказано.
@@lyapa-p9p откройте сайт Малофеева. Концерты расписаны на пол года вперёд. И они по всему миру. К сожалению в России их нет.
Exceptional! Legendary pianist in the making!
Браво Александр! 👏 Я люблю Моцарта! 👍
It always amazes me that these pianists can remember EVERY note!! I know, they practice and everything...but still - to the T man! Crazy. Well done 🎹🎼
Alexander the Great!
Wundersam herrlich inspiriert. Danke für den Hörgenuss. Grossartig, Weltspitze.
Best performance of this piece i've seen yet! Bravo!!
I'm not entirely convinced Malofeev is human. His immense talent seems not of this world.
Dit mooie pianoconcert n° 20 van Mozart gespeeld door een dromerige, fijnzinnige jonge pianist, finalist in deze internationale competitie! Dank voor deze schitterende prestatie !!!
Los pianistas sobresalientes y virtuosos para serlo deberán aprobar
la exigente prueba de Mozart y este gran portento virtuoso Ruso sí que aprueba y sobresale. Felicitaciones.
BRAVO , ALEXANDER . CHRYSTALINE . as MOZART is , HIMSELF . this is QUITE DEMANDING . YOU DID it SO CLEARLY . EACH NOTE , EACH ACCORD , THE so MANY SHADES .
... in some passages ,the VERY BEST , YOU ARE till now .
... and FLAWLESS .
This is Mozart at his best. Fabulous
You have found a way into my heart for which I thank you
Humanity got lucky again :)
much much to expect from this beautiful new pianist. I find the orchestra mediocre and the whole rendering not too good - but Alexander has told me a dozen or so new things about Mozart's 20 I didn't even started to guess... he is a real musician, not just a pianist, and he READS music creatively. No show-off, really musical statement. The phrases are very-much his. I will cherish this rendering of the concerto, even if it will probably never be counted among the "legendary performances". This one will forever remind me there is always NEW things in the old music
Completely agree - and it may yet turn out to be one of the important performances of Mozart, and of this concerto in particular..
nogatram1 fully agree. The orchestra is metronomic mediocrity and Alexander is immersive inventive and interpretive in a way he’s finding in himself alone.
Disagree. I find the orchestra to be very good and nuanced. The only (tiny) criticism i have of the performance is that the pianist cuts some important ending notes of phrases a bit short.
I love his Mozart!💓 I honestly don't listen to Mozart pieces (the only one I used to like is eine kleine nachtmusik) and Alexander makes the whole piece enjoyable, and not boring! I think he has done it amazing here. Bravo!!
É UM PRIVILÉGIO ESTAR AQUI NE*E MOMENTO. É COMO ESTAR AO PIANO EXECURANDO ESSA BELA PARTE DE MOZART!!!OBRIGADA!!!!
Sensationell!!
Es un genio del piano
Dit is werkelijk een natuurtalent met een diepe innerlijkheid en emotioneel rijk!dank!
I’m learning this concerto right now and boy is it fun! I’m so grateful I found this performance to base mine off of.
Check his recent performance at the Moscow Conservatory. It's wonderful...maybe even better than this one?
A stunning interpretation. Alexander was born with the gift of music, and probably the greatest prodigy since Evgeny Kissin.
Greatest is not a word I would use for him when we know the legendary Pianists from Liszt to Horowitz to Argerich...
Liszt, Horowitz and Argerich were born before Evgeny Kissin.
Ditto!
Bravo, perfecto!
a young Russian pianist from Moskau playing Mozart in China ... Mr. Mozart listen!
And watched and enjoyed by people from every country...from all around the planet!
i love him
Angel of the piano
An excellent example of the talent of the Moscow School. Him, Varvara Kutozova(15) and Alexandra Dovgan(12) are 3 of the best pianists of this generation.
All from the Moscow School.
listen to Yoav Levanon who at 8 plays Haydn as well as Brendel.
carl armstrong don't even try about brendel😂
As to Moscow school, Ivan Bessonov is among the best youghs as well.
Among them Alexander is the one that advanced the most in terms of being successful. 🙂 He's already selling out concertos worldwide.
Oh my goodness!😳The extraordinary talents born on planet Russia! Next to Wolfgang. Competition rendered meaningless. The judges must hang their head in shame. He is now a world acclaimed pianist. I cry helplessly.
Genial !!!
so inspiring, ...for the youth of today, that is just on their cellphones. Alexander is an example of deep enjoyment and focus
@Yin Yang ... Amen!
Him: playing all the crazy concertos
Me: still worrying about my piano exams
wtf
Not everyone is Alexander Malofeev, or Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart for that specific matter, but so long as you enjoy making music, indeed, WTF do you care? keep playing!
@@MottiShneor Amen! And indeed, he should play on! 🎹
Onmenselijke prachtige prestatie ,chapeau Alexander.
Mozart t’écoute du haut des cieux🙏 Sublissime ❣️
As células desse virtuosi são MUSICAIS, TODAS COM PROGRAMAS COMPLETOS DAS LEIS DE HARMONIZAÇAO MELÓDICA! OUVIR E ASDISTIR a ESTE ESPETÁCULO É UMA VIAGEM A "OUTRO PLANETA"!!!!!
In my opinion he played this concerto extremely well despite some of the negative comments. He should have won the first prize.
geweldig Alexander om hem te zien spelen maar ook dit orkest ik geniet hier intens van👍
His phrasing on the keyboard is a unique style and touch that’s recognizable to Alexander
Magnífico!!!!
Neben seiner technischen Brillanz legt Malofeev großen Wert auf musikalische Ausdruckskraft. Er versteht es, die emotionale Tiefe und Vielschichtigkeit der Stücke, die er spielt, zu erfassen und dem Publikum durch seine Interpretation nahezubringen.
Trotz seines jungen Alters zeigt Malofeev eine bemerkenswerte Reife in seiner Herangehensweise an Musik. Er ist in der Lage, komplexe musikalische Strukturen zu analysieren und sie mit intellektueller Tiefe zu interpretieren. Kristallklarer Klang, wunderbare Balance, großartige und wohlverstandene subjektive Agogik, kluge Strukturierung, schöner, klingender, melodischer Ton, lyrische Anschlagskultur - da stimmt (fast) alles - da im Wettbewerb, muß er sich konventionell etwas zurückhalten. Würde mich sehr interessieren, wie er das Konzert heute spielt!
Wow! Such a dazzling, exciting performance of this most modern of Mozart's symphonic works!
We tend to think of Mozart and his early works. Meanwhile, Mozart was a genius and wrote so much.
He was able to break "the mold of the Classical period" and put his "toe" into the stream of the Romantic period."
Alexander is giving Mozart his best Romantic rendition of this concerto which Mozart probably did when he played it back when!
The Alexander I know can play "the pants" off any of the great Romantic piano concertos. He astounds me to be so virtuosic in this performance of Mozart most Romantic piano concerto.
I am sure the Alexander would play more Mozartian in any of his earlier works. Of course this is a Music Competition and he needed to pick a virtuosic Mozart Concerto. He picked well!
Well! I say again, “Music expresses wordless odyssey’s”. ‘Ole Mozart had four more steps to the twin sister of this watermark opus; and he doubtless had little trouble getting there. This concerto always takes me back to the seventies when I first started listening to this piece on that old Montgomery Wards compact stereo record player. I spun that disc regularly and marveled every time at such a novel and modern sound. The psychological tension was unlike anything else and drama that was spine tingling delicious. The Beethoven cadenza is unsurpassed and consummate. The pianist plumbs its depths and heights with luminous skill and grace; so that all flowing in this very familiar river of sonic perfection are hearing with quickened ears and refreshed spirits. Not to mentioned how the soul is enriched! I often tell people I meet, “With all kinds of beautiful music and philosophic.” Something to add life to their day and perhaps provide a little food for thought. The Apostle John recorded in the book of Revelations how he heard “harpers harping with their harps” now that, we know, is the ultimate. And what we hear now are mere shadows of what will be! PWG
Merci beaucoup, prends le temps de vivre tout ce que tu aimes.
Reminds me a bit of Glen Gould. Sitting so high to the keyboard and a bit hunched over. A stellar performance.
I was going to say that.
GG is and always was like a god to me. Alexander has the same effect on me, and I can't believe it. By the way, Glenn did not take Mozart very seriously.
Большое Спасибо Александр ! ! ! ! Баку .
Malofeev brings a breath of fresh air to this Mozart piano concerto. I prefer hearing variety in dynamics than a plodding echo of some interpretations I’ve heard before. May he be with us for many years to come. 31:43
OMG! It's great!
Excelente, me encanta
Whoever treats music that way must have a beautiful soul.
BRAVO 🎶🎹🎵🎶
Bravo ! An extraordinary performance !
Judges should judge on audio only i.e. no visual of participants and no programmes indicating who's playing !
This will generate a more accurate result overall of the competition.
Bravo bravo bravo
🤔 tiene técnica y talento.....esperaré en unos años más, es bueno.
Cudowny koncert🎹👏👏👏👏👏
17 year old Alexander, got Second prize at the Competition...congratulations!!
Your compatriote Seong -Jim Cho played the same concert at the Chaikovski contest two years ago. He also had 17 then. He scored the third prize and he was as brilliant and inspiring as Malofeef here in China though I want to remark that I liked best the Chinese orchestra and his condoctor than the Russian one.
@@ЛюбовьПотемина-ш3б Perhaps you like foreigners better than your own?
One must be objective and have individual approach and see assets which vary and learn to admire them in their diversity. I bet chinese orchestra and its condoctor prevailed over the russian one. But it`s a mere opinion. As to the pianists they were both subtile and brilliant.
shut up virus
shut up virus!
I can lissen to him continuisly as flow of a river or burning of fire
El mejor del mundo Alexander
I am Lupita Rios from México. Alexander is the Best. I AM 77 years old and all my life I heard music.because my father play piano Steinway.
What's Alexander doing there? Isn't he way above competition level? Doing it for fun? Even when sick (Chinese food?). Anyway I have a thought about his playing: because of his age we may not be able to tell yet (or is it me?) But he must be having a special sound, like Michelangeli, Richter, Horowitz and Rubinstein had. Or else he will develop something in his playing that's incompairable.
Chinese food makes you sick?? What the hell you talking about.
Lieber Alexander, mein Lieblings-Pianokonzert von W.A. Mozart war bisher das 21. Klavierkonzert. Aber nachdem ich Deine Interpretation des 20. Pianokonzert von W.A.M. gehört habe, bin ich um ein Klavierkonzert reicher. Vielen Dank!
