She is a great pianist, and it’s good to see that people are warming up to her. Many were surprised when she won the 2010 Chopin Competition, but I think the jury got it right. 😎🎹
It's amazing how at the time of the competition I wasn't very impressed (Wunder was an easier listen), but over the years listening to Avdeeva over and over again I've grown to love her as the finest Chopin ever... there is everything in this piece that I ever need in music 😍
I feel same. Ten years ago at the time of the competition, I could not accept her way of playing . But a couple of years ago, I was suddenly impressed by her deep and rich sound. Now, I love everything of her Chopin.
@@LazlosPlane Trifonov vs Avdeeva is today's version of Horowitz vs Rubinstein ... the former makes everything about themself, and the latter stays true to the music.
@@tekraynak Ouch. For me Horowitz vs. Rubinstein is no contest-- in one first round: Rubinstein by knock out. But I agree that Avdeeva is more "composer centered"- Trifinov is a virtuoso but the kind that is churned out by the hundreds in today's Conservatories. Almost robotic.
Yulianna Avdeeva nous donne une très belle interprétation pleine de sensibilité et de subtilité de cette oeuvre majeure de Frédéric Chopin . Cette grande pianiste internationale d'aujourd'hui vient par son talent sublimer cette grande et magnifique Polonaise-Fantaisie et qui est à mon avis peut-être la meilleure version, à ce jour que l'on puisse entendre. Merci à cette grande pianiste de restituer avec tant de romantisme et de passion ce chef d'oeuvre de la musique.
Please don’t forget that she played sonata no 2 nocturne op 27 no1 and no2, ballade no4 and polonaise fantasy within 1 hour! That’s a very aggressive program but she managed the details so well. That’s really amazing and deserve well-respect!
A difficult piece to interpret. She loves this piece and is completely convinced--and convincing--in her performance of it. I love her taking time to stare into heaven while she is playing the trills. Astonishing identity with this work. Great pianist.
She plays with great clarity, I think. Nothing lost or over exaggerated. Pristine. In this way she allows the music (or one might say, Chopin) to speak directly to us.
Fabulous interpretation. Enormous sense of design and far-sighted building. Powerful, yes, but never ugly in sound even if she is demanding the utmost of her piano!
Such greatness is self-evident - for those who have ears to hear and hearts to feel. Inspiration, insight, intuition, feeling, love, virtuosity. Delightful artistic phenomenon.
It was a tremendous performance that touched my heart. I think Avdeeva is really good at this delicate performance. Her Chopin performance always sounds beautiful and delicate. Thank you for the great performance!
i am sorry no. We all know Daniil Trifonov was better, but he may not have deserve no.1 as well for his mistakes. I am sorry to tell the truth but she was by far the weakest no.1 ever in chopin competition.
@@usstockchannel yulianna sabe o som de chopin, daniil trifonov errou muito na competição pra falar a verdade nem sei como ele ficou em terceiro e também ela se saiu muito bem na competição...
Céus, Yulianna está me destruindo, ver todas essas perfomances de uma vez só, eu vou enlouquecer!༎ຶ‿༎ຶ O som dela é tão forte que pode.ser um pouco cansativo, é muito poder!
Her interpretation isn't entirely controled by this song. Her mind is beside the thought of this songs. That’s why she can control her skills, technique and the power till the ending part.
Her phrasing strikes me as most philosophical unique. SHE CAN PLAY!!! Heart and soul and spirit! This interpretation is uncanny. Better than Horowitz. PWG
An alle die immer noch nicht verstehen können, warum sie gewonnen hat: Yulianna Avdeeva hat ihre (vielleicht nicht sensationelle) Technik zu 100% in den Dienst der Interpretation der Werke Chopins gesetzt und so genau wie möglich hörbar gemacht, was der Komponist geschrieben hat. Man muss nur in die Partituren schauen um das zu erkennen. Es ist berührend wie interessant sie mit dem Notentext interagiert und wie sie jedes Detail exakt aber auch als Teil von einem Kontext herausbringt. Da ist null Ego und das ist genau der richtige Weg.
It does, its amazing how great the CFX is. Most played model in the competition back that year, and if Im not wrong 2015 too. The legendary Martha Argerich also liked it very much. In Chopin's 2015 competition, the CFX was choosed by 5 of the 6 finalists(The winner Seong Jin Cho used a Steinway, but also played the CFX on later tours).
Very nice... even though on the Yamaha Played very well and musically.( would sound different on the Steinway and Fazioli ).... I saw her little snippet lesson on Face book today..
At the bar 188, she obviously took no # in accordance with EKIER version. I heard many candidates played it with adding #, so she is minority. Also, I grew up with adding # and familiar with that melody. On the other hand, EKIER pointed out that it should be played without # when you think about the melody which is diatonic from bar 182. I am not an expert but I would like to follow what Chopin intended. What do you think?
@@van-fu2ff 08:56 - 08:58 The B# is only present in the first German edition (Breitkopf & Härtel), therefore not in the manuscript, first French edition or first British edition. On the other hand, Paderewski has that B# on the second quaver - no mention of differing editions. For ''some reason'' they chose to keep the richness of the left hand in the French edition and that B# from the German edition. I would guess some late correction by Chopin to B & H, which was quite usual back then.
This moves from key to key with such recklessness that we need some pauses and rubato to tell us when a tonic has been reached or whether we are about to go off into far flung places. Yulianna does this. I appreciate she is able to contain the over frenetic parts and inject some needed lyricism after they are over. This is a hell of noisy piece. Was he ill when he wrote it ??
@@LazlosPlane no, I was challenging your claim that this performance (of a Polonaise-Fantaisie) was the performance that won Avdeeva the competition. When Ingolf Wunder specifically won the special prize for the best performance of a Polonaise-Fantaisie, making your claim dubious.
The beginning of this phenomenal masterpiece unfortunately fails for so many interpreters (Trifonov e.g. succeeds in this very correctly), since it is mistakenly believed that the very first part, which repeats later in the piece, has to run a bit viscous. In addition, there is a lack of even more delicate volume gradations. As a result, what is presented here becomes a bit too banal at these points and was definitely not intended by Chopin. There's also the fact that she unfortunately remained too nuance-free at the end, even a bit too noisily gradation-distant in forte ranges, driving it there too fast, including slightly exaggerated use of pedal. Otherwise her performance offered real deep Chopin spirit over the longest distance, dear ladies & gentlemen. In the form rather rare and succeeded truly extraordinarily fantastic.
With great effort - managed to put to one side the ridiculous and false over-acting at the keyboard (which is doing NOTHING to help put classical music back into the hearts of a wider youth audience) Unfortunately, Avdeeva's need to appear overwrought and impassioned meant she forgot to add the levels of subtlety required to express the real variations in attack and volume necessary to give a decent rendition.
You must be an empath. Can you point to these moments of her being "overwrought" and "Impassioned"? I don't see them. If you do not hear levels of subtleties I suggest you re-tuned your "empathy" because they are there. Honestly, you sound like someone either trying to sound more informed than you actually, spitting out these empty opinions, to make yourself feel better.
She is a great pianist, and it’s good to see that people are warming up to her. Many were surprised when she won the 2010 Chopin Competition, but I think the jury got it right.

Greetings, MarshallArtz, and glad you found this amazing pianist.
I agree absolutely.
After 14 years......this is the finest interpretation of the Polonaise-Fantasy! Beautiful played! Bravo Yulianna!

Dear RUclips. Please stop interrupting for ads in the middle of a nonumental piece of music.
Yes, at the beginning and ending is fine, but please stop in the middle of the music...

The best op.61ever on world
How can you not love her?
Překrásné dílo úžasně zahrané touto skvělou klavírní virtuózkou. Chvála Bohu za něco tak krásného.
Incredible left-hand phrasing and articulation

più ascolto questa pianista più l'ammiro
What a perfect playing!
幻想ポロネーズを自分でも弾いてみたくなり練習開始し、ショパコン動画沢山見ている。やはりこのピアニストの細部まで抜かりない正確さ決して速すぎないテンポ、左手の重厚感が心に響く、、、
ヤマハの音が似合うなぁ、、、、指も職人のそれみたいで、この時点で巨匠の風格漂いまくりやんっ
For me, Very best interpretation of this piece. Every note is compatybile with my brain imagination of perfection for this one:)))
I tell you this is marvelous
A great performance.
superbe, merveilleux, du rêve, de la passion, de la brillance!
No other words , just simply magnificent !!
Congratuley Yulianna Avdeeva beautiful, Polonaise in AFlat major op. 61.
Well performed on the yamaha cfx grand sound great.❤

Magnifique. Il y a quelque chose qui me rappelle W.Kapell.
Dommage que le piano soit un Yamaha trop brillant !
Does that piano sound better than a Steinway, especially in the upper bass, or is she just being a genius?
great appreciation btw

Strong interpretation but a weak piece of music
What an absurd statement, it's one of the greatest masterpieces of all piano literature.
With great effort - managed to put to one side the ridiculous and false over-acting at the keyboard (which is doing NOTHING to help put classical music back into the hearts of a wider youth audience) Unfortunately, Avdeeva's need to appear overwrought and impassioned meant she forgot to add the levels of subtlety required to express the real variations in attack and volume necessary to give a decent rendition.

Exaggerated
Full of fails. Blechacz definitively won
Bozhanov won ;)
music is not about fails.
Um, Blechacz LOST. Not nearly good enough. Sorry.
Cortot would never win a contest with you as the judge.
ingolf wunder is better
really??! hahaha XD
The jury disagrees with you :)
