Yuja Wang’s philosophy of music is both simple and profoundly complex. “I want to relate all life to music,” she recently told veteran British critic Fiona Maddocks. The Beijing-born pianist’s latest album for Deutsche Grammophon, set for international release on 23 November 2018, captures the white heat of solo works by Rachmaninov, Prokofiev, Scriabin and Ligeti, a trio of Russians together with one of the late 20th-century’s greatest composers. The Berlin Recital was recorded live this summer at the Berlin Philharmonie’s Kammermusiksaal during Yuja’s extensive solo tour of North America and Europe.

Can you see how strong her hands are? Wang has astonishing sound control here. The more I hear of Prokofiev, the more I am astonished by his compositional skill.
His melodies really are out of this world.
WHEW! Is it weird that I give a standing ovation to my tv in my living room? And...aside from EVERYTHING (awesome) that comes before...those last two minutes of the sonata; the utter cast-iron concentration needed for unerring and explicit note accuracy, the unflagging tempo and HUGE power to the end...is beyond all words of appreciation. YUJA = superwoman-Queen-of-the-keyboard-the greatest-EVER! I'm sure Prokofiev would be overjoyed with her.
What dedication and sacrifices she must have made to play at this top flight level, and how fortunate we are to be able to experience such a talent.
6 à 8 h. d'exercice, et exercices variés, chaque jour, et tous les jours, avec beaucoup de discipline et de privations
C' est le prix a payer !
Ajoutez 2 tonnes de talent et quelques prédispositions plus un secret de cuisine, et vous obtenez la sauce Wang.
I don't know about that. From all the quotes, words and interviews from Yuja it would seem most of what we see comes more as a result of passion than hard work. She herself said she doesn't like to practice that much because, I gather, she feels it doesn't help her creativity on stage. Just look at videos of Yuja as a child. She doesn't look serious or haggard. She looks like she is in a state of bliss and like she is pretending she's already a concert pianist. In other words the piano was always a toy/refuge and/or escape for her. Remember she didn't take up the violin because THAT was considered work to her. She probably plays piano whenever one happens to be nearby; parties, bars, interviews etc., so even though she might not practice as much as other pianists she probably still puts more time in playing the piano than they do practicing on it.
@@neiladlington950 absolutly right!
Wow. Just wow. And she just walks right offstage like it was nothing.
It WAS nothing.
Humility, a characteristic of the great.
An excellent performance of Prokofievs’ 8 - this is war - and you’ll surely gonna get it by Yuja Wangs strong fingers - excellent
She's Not an Angel... She's a GODDESS!!! (I Really Love Her. And she's one of the Most talented of this Century!!!)
This reads as if you should consult a psychiatrist about yuja-mania.
It doesn't matter. She is still a great petformer. And I mean OUTSTANDING!!!
Very impressive. Prokofiev suits her very well....for me the best Prokofiev player, as so many composers.
thank you!
Ouch
Je ne dirai que ceci : Sokolov.
What a wonderful woman, it's an angel playing.
Her playing is out of this world. Yuja Wang represents everything that is good in us humans. She truly is an inspiration and a ray of hope in the gloom that surrounds today. Humanity will perennially seek succor and sustenance having being witness to magical performances of such supreme caliber. Thank you!
It amazes me that some people are *still* upset with Yuja Wang's appearance. She is in the top 1% of the world's greatest pianists and at 32 has a long, remarkable career ahead of her.
Get over it (or just keep your eyes closed!)
10x88 what? Who would dislike her appearance? That’s shallow of them. She is unique and very very herself and I love that. Im a 27 yo female and i never thought of hating on another female who got talent. I appreciate everything about Yuja. A lot of people need to grow up. What can we say.
Considering there's 7 billion something people, try 0.00000001%
It's educational, the backless dresses of the female pianists let see how the back and shoulder muscles work during the playing, it's not just fingers. Biomechanics of piano playing, something a Tux won't show us.
This 89-year-old appreciates her appearance...but the world is still sexist. We are unlikely to see male conductors and soloists performing in Tarzan costume! BUT - she remains a superb pianist, who may be one of the greatest ever.

Hi Dude! Who is Yuja? Product PR and show industry! Absolutely ordinary pianist, pulled onto the stage by mafia structures for the sexual entertainment of snotty youths and old libertines!

Wang’s powerful virtuosity stronger on flash than depth in Boston recital
May 13, 2018
By Aaron Keebaugh

...
There is no doubting Yuja Wang’s technique at the keyboard. The Chinese-born pianist is capable of unleashing torrents of octave runs, and her left-hand figures supply an almost orchestral sense of depth and gravity to her sound. She clearly shapes every phrase, and her notes resonate with a ping.
...
Still, there were times Friday night when one wondered if Wang only saw some of this music as just showpieces for her mesmerizing technical skill. Her selections of Rachmaninoff Preludes and Études-tableaux, though played deftly, didn’t always flower with the vocal quality so integral to the composer’s style.
Wang takes a full-bodied approach to Rachmaninoff, and she renders his textures in multi-dimensional shapes. In the Prelude in G minor, Op. 23, No. 5, her strong left hand figures tethered the march rhythms to the ground. The Prelude in B minor, Op. 32, No. 10 unfolded in Debussyian washes of color. In the Étude-tableau in E-flat minor, Op. 39, No. 5, Wang’s harmonies and bass lines crashed together in blistering clusters. But in each, Rachmaninoff sense of sweeping grandeur went largely unexplored.
Three of Ligeti’s Etudes, which filled out the program, were similarly muscular but lacking in probing musicality. Wang’s running chromatic figures blurred into a fog in Etude No. 9, “Vertige,” and in Etude No. 1, “Désordre,” churning Bartókian rhythms propelled the music ever forward. In Etude No. 3, “Touches bloquées,” Wang’s performance needed more of the intimacy that this music requires. Though Wang played the work quickly-as marked-the Etude’s halo-like harmonics, caused by the pianist keeping some of the keys depressed with the left hand while punching out syncopated figures with the right, failed to shimmer. Ligeti incorporated difficult passages into these works not as vehicles for showboating but to create ethereal musical tapestries. And throughout, it seemed as if Wang was playing Ligeti’s notes, not Ligeti’s music.

The program will be repeated 8 p.m. Thursday night at Carnegie Hall in New York. carnegiehall.org.
"The best Prokofiev - player"????????
Google translation: "Berlin Berliner Morgenpost Kultur Kirill Petrenko conducts the Berliner Philharmoniker 15.04.2018, 03:00 Uhr Felix Stephan Top-Events in Berlin "... And Petrenko's most recent Philharmonic program also fits into this It moves exclusively in the first half of the 20th century, and Prokofiev's Piano Concerto No. 3 is clearly the main attraction of the evening, especially as the Chinese Yuja Wang reaches into the keys, a pianist, half Circus horse, half machine, with a lurid record tempi in the outer sets and mercilessly accurate chord attacks.Whoever had always suspected that the piano is a drum kit, will feel confirmed by Yuja Wang." ...

In all seriousness: What can’t Yuja Wang do?
This star pianist has built her reputation on breathtaking mastery of the standard repertory, like the chamber works she played last Wednesday with the violinist Leonidas Kavakos at Carnegie Hall. Or Robert Schumann’s Piano Concerto, which she’ll do with the Boston Symphony Orchestra later this week.
But in between those two dates, she stopped by Carnegie’s Zankel Hall on Monday for something entirely different: a comedy show. One with music, of course. And, as always, she was radiant in Rachmaninoff and Lutoslawski.
But there was - more.
She rapped! She sang and danced through a “West Side Story” medley! She did one-legged, upside-down yoga on a piano bench! And along the way, she never lost an ounce of virtuosity.
Mario is clearly threatened by strong independent women. That's why he obsessively rants about her on every single video on yt. How dare she show skin. How dare she not be ashamed of being a woman. How dare she be anything other than a stiff, repressed little robot that bows down to her male overlords. Dear god this guy must be an incel...
Yuja always delivers. Bravo
Yuja - The FABULOUS!
Wonderful Rendition! Yuja , Beautiful and So TALENTED Lady!!! LOVE!
Bravo!!!
Once again, we see the musical illiterates giving their thumbs down. Its seems that every performance I bring up, there are always some ignoramuses who think their judgment is superior, and overrule the genius of the composers and performers, such as Yuja and others.
Never disappoints. Never fails to make a musical challenge look like a walk in the park on a fragrant spring day.
respect,.. playing that movement, especially on a big steinway like that, takes a true PRO
Outstanding!
I saw and met her in 2008 right out of Curtis and she was astonishingly good. The double octave "Flight of the Bumblebee" was other worldly. She totally blew me away. Later she was joyful, friendly, and spontaneous. She charmed all of us. We all knew she was more than special. It was unforgettable really.
Brillante !
Great sound and picture quality
I have just been listening to Julliard students play this piece, and it's like night and day. The touch!
That's awesome interpreta tion no.8😊
What amazes me the the ability to have such muscle memory that you can concentrate on felling, tone, expression, etc.
J' adore YUJA WANG OK?
Wer kann, der kann !
Her and Kissin both make this movement a sublime, spiritual experience
her face when she plays is the music itself
Wonderful work. Not to seem pedantic but music is not a game to be won or lost. On the level of this and many other fantastic virtuosi it is a matter of not the game of music but the dance of life. Enjoy it and escape your assumptions. Ray Evans Harrell, Artistic Director Magic Circle Opera Repertory Ensemble.

This piece is badass!
Why not just enjoy the way she looks? I mean, I think she's hot AND pianistically amazing. Is there anything wrong with that?

Magnifique ! Et je ne vois, ni l'intérêt de critiquer, ni l'intérêt de comparer. Carpe diem...
at 3:56 she changed the 10ths to 3rds! LoL.. quite acceptable compromise tho
Je n’entends que de la surface, une succession de jolies surfaces très correctement jouées et suivies. Mais une succession de jolies notes ne suffit pas pour faire de la musique. Surtout cette dernière sonate de guerre. Où est l’angoisse, où est l’abîme, où la profondeur ? Je vais retrouver Richter et Kissin. Je mets, il est vrai, la barre un peu haut.
IMHO, for prokofiev sonata8: richter, gavrilov, kissin, yuja, .. in no particular order
Have you heard Gilels’ live recording?
Why slow down at the end? Kissin executed the coda masterfully
Because, if you could read the score, that is the indication the composer gives...

She's a great pianist, despite the fashion stuff that surround her (disgraceful to me, and it engaged just me). Her Scarbo from Ravel was soo deeply sticking to the scarbo story! Maybe best interpretation of heard? The story telling was excellent (ans so much mastering the piece!)
Here, she shrink her dynamics to much to the strong nuance level, restraining her economic of means. She's very interested by Prokofiev, so I guess she have a meaning. Still, maybe little shade due to the virtuosity show.
Was that an oblique quote by Prokofiev of "shave and a haircut" at 10:17?
After gavrilov’s performance, I can’t hear another pianist..
Prithu your comment is irrational and subjectively wrong .
What were you doing here
Was it really a deafening performance? Gavrilov's?
In my opinion, Richter is the best :) but I love Gavlirov's interpretation!

Not a single day!

I like extremes, but maybe I should find a place in between.”

the real question is, "who is mario disarli?" but then again, who cares?
i really feel sry for this kind of people: lack of knowledge about piano playing, so have no idea how to make difference between ordinary and extraordinary, so he has to look into circumstances (clothing etc.), also need copy paste a review, to decide what is good, and he prefers conservatism, and in his mind there is a connection between value and conservative clothing, or rather he thinks that not conservative clothing means that its for hiding her poor piano qualities... It ends in a hilarious hostility, and conspiration theories. In real she is an extraordinary pianist with unbeliavable skills. As always, lack of knowledge ends in hostile bullshit.
YUJA It's Your MOTHER!!!
Why is it, do you suppose, that Ms. Wang was named the 2017 artist of the year by Musical America, the classical music publication, which said in announcing its annual honors that she “represents a new breed - the complete, thoroughly modern package”? As with any artist, if you don't enjoy their style of performance then listen to someone else. And if you don't enjoy her splashy, sexy style of dress but like her music, why don't you close your eyes? I'd say we are lucky to have someone with her talents to enjoy along with so many other extraordinary pianists. Of course she isn't perfect but I find many of her performances to be exhilarating.
À chacun son goût, n'est-ce pas?
