Another masterful Matsuev/Gergiev collaboration. What else can one say? Prokofiev with played by pianist and orchestra with grandiose technique, panache, and HEART!
Denis is a brilliant exponent of Prokofiev's works, in this way or with the solo sonatas. He was very much in sync with the wonderful conductor and orchestra. I often want to dance to Prokofiev's music. I enjoyed this performance thank you.
Not only was this so WELL played by a technical master, the showcase of Prokofiev's genius to create this Masterpiece it will endure to the end of time. Prokofiev throws everything technically at this work. It is such a physical pianistically Olympic marathon of endurance and it was so WELL played. What a gift to the world!!!
Уважаемый Денис Мацуев, вы, без сомнения, отличный пианист, услышать, как вы играете, - настоящий подарок. Я бразилец и люблю классическую музыку. Я познакомился с интернет-мальчиком Елисей Мысином, чудом Божьим, бесспорным! Потому что я прошу вас как поклонника и поклонника, не пропустите ничего для этого ребенка, и если это ваша воля, научите его, чтобы он был освящен великим пианистом! Благослови вас Бог! аминь
Сегодня слушала этот концерт в исполнении Давыдченко- победителя конкурса Чайковского 23 года - больше мне понравился - у Прокофьева много волшебного и графики, но здесь Мацуев лучше, чем с этим же концертом я его слушала в БЗК.Тогда я сидела с прекрасными родителями Дениса, попросила их передать сыну, что Прокофьев- не только техника, хотя с этим пианист блестяще справляется.Мама ответила , что ничего передавать не будет, потому что Денис только с самолёта, а отец его обещал передать мои пожелания.Мне больше Гершвин у Мацуева нравится, и вообще джаз- это его.И очень много он делает для молодых музыкантов.Только сейчас прошёл потрясающий конкурс в Москве- Grand Piano.
@@naturalbornweakness it's not cheating if it works. And there is technically no right or wrong when it comes to the technique. If it doesn't cause you any pain and you play the right notes, then you're doing it right. It's just the same as doing a trill with 2 hands instead of one, and I see no problem with that
@@firstbourne8799 If Prokofiev wanted this scale to sound like a glissando, why didn't he wrote just a glissando? Also, the coda is overall confuse and rushed. Maybe Matsuev was thinking that the concert was about himself, and not about Prokofiev...
Gorgeous playing from Matsuev - one of the sharpest and cleanest Prok 3's on YT. Also, glad to see that the Mariinsky carried a special program for the employment of the mentally and physically challenged for their conductor. Great initiative indeed!
I don't understand why Matsuev substitute the double-note scale (26:27) with a simple glissando. It's not even a double note glissando. It's what I think a lesser pianist would do to accommodate the technical challenge. It's not like it's too difficult for him, right? For me, yes it's tricky, but surely not for him. Glissando doesn't have that unique effect that, come to think of it, quite revolutionary on Prokofiev's part. Rarely do we see such a thing in other music.
This is commonly done. The gliss version is more impressive on the ear. I'm sure he is capable of both. I've seen it done in 3 ways...a gliss, a simple 2 hand scale and a rather weak but visually interesting 2 hand on top of each other semi-staccato. The final version is the correct one, I understand, but it slows the tempo so is rarely used.
I don't know about common. Every Prokofiev 3 I've heard so far do the diatonic double scale. The only time I saw this was in a movie (a rather bad movie about a woman competing with this piece). And in my humble opinion it sounded less exciting with the glissando. I expected more.
In my opinion, that double-note-passage is no big problem if you just distribute it onto the two hands via hand-crossing. With that, you have enough power to produce a huge sound while being able to play it in tempo. ...that aside, this is maybe the perfect concerto for Matsuev. The power he has just sweeps you away!
Just for the record, this is definitely not being performed in the Great Hall of the Moscow Conservatory. The concert looks is to me like it was performed in the Concert Hall of the Mariinsky in St Petersburg. Great performance.
Denis Matsuev is considered to be one of the best in the world. He is on a whole different level honestly. The people he plays for too are on a whole different status.
@@burrenmagic I’ve only been learning the piano for 6 months, however that’s the sense and feeling that I get from Yuja’s interpretations. There seems to be more emphasis on technical competency rather than the spirit of the composition that she plays.
Did he replace the final octaves with some dissonant stuff or was that a written ossia? Because i always remember the last part as both hands playing in perfect octaves
He adds his own contribution to it, as far as I know there's no ossia version there...or perhaps a revised version on the power of Moscow's Conservatory (?)
뭔 개소리야? 피아니스트가 3악장 클라이막스 다 망쳤는데 ㅋㅋㅋㅋ 프로코피에프가 멍청해서 글리산도로 기보하지 않고 2도씩 묶어서 그렸겠냐? 실력이 딸려서 작곡가 의도를 엿먹였는데? 러시아인만이 이 곡을 잘 할 수 있다고? ㅋㅋㅋ 러시아인 너조차 곡을 제대로 이해 못한거 같은데? 반음계 진행은 틀리니까 걍 대충 얼버무리고 트릴로 마무리, 심지어 그다음 나오는건 C 음계 진행인데 미스터치하고 자빠졌지. 러시아가 최고? 쇼스타코비치가 그 소리 들으면 개빡치겠다 ㅋㅋㅋㅋ
Что-то с темпами и у оркестра и у дирижёра. Качаются. Ожидала от Мацуева сильно большего. Оркестр играет качественно, но Гергиев и Мацуев не держат темп и начало звучи тяжеловато. Пойду продолжать искать более полётную версию. Пока с большим отрывом на ютюбе лидирует ааторская😊
I really like this performance.... The piano is voiced just perfectly for both the "percussive" aspects of this piece.... and the lyrical... and not too rushed either... prefect tempi!
This guy can't fool me. Whilst they in the audience may like the pianist (although the reaction/reception was deservedly muted), and some here do admire him, I cannot. If the basic accuracy is missing no showy approximations can cover up for you. The orchestra under Gergiev are however very good.
Never compare a good Russian pianist to another country artist, most of times you fall absolutely wrong. Be careful, Russian pianist school is the best around of a wide margin. Yuja not even know what is the right posture in front of a keyboard. Basically she is a joke, nothing more.
This is a highly impressive pianist. BUT. Why sacrifice depth, expression and lyricism for speed, freneticism and aggression? I don't get this choice. As an artist there is only one true interpretation of a piece. Only and always. Artists don't believe this anymore.
+chris1117 there are no glissandos so he doesn't fake glissandos. any attempt to play the proper notes sounds like crap anyways so he does everything correct by just wiping his hand. smart man.
+chris1117 I ALSO NOTICED THAT Matsuev you phony/clever bastard. Still Martha Argerich doing non glissandos in the last part is amazing and hipnotizing
+Kernel Plutonium clearly you don't know the score, and have never heard Weissenberg actually play them as written, no cheats. Matsuri is a slob technically, with huge energy and very little control, it's painful to listen to once you know the music.
His sound is really horrible. He is very talented pianist, but only pianist. His playing is only with physical power, with clash, with aggressive staccati, very dry sound, and showing only that he is the best, without singing on the instrument, without thinking on the character that are founding in this concerto. Where is the music??Where is the narrative??Where is Prokofiev??Oh, sorry, is only Matsuev there, and nothing else is valuable. To be only a pianist with fast fingers, but without thinking musically, is far away of being a real musician.
I am smitten with Alexander Malofeev's version of this concerto.He is the thinking man's pianist.You can see looking at his facial expression (nothing showy or theatrical,though)how every passage is thought through and him giving it his best shot .I am besotted with that young genius!z-Yuya Wang is too agressive and lang lang is a clown,brilliant though they are......IMHO
@Peter Kovgan No, is absolutely not true. Has nothing to do with percussion. You can hear also recording of the composer himself playing his works and have nothing to do with the model how is played today.
@@eveeve7026 Im not talking about competition here. If you want to judge people for their opinion, you are welcome but give your idea at least. Music is not a horse race but for some kind of pianist, musician and people unfortunately yes. Everybody has the right to give his own opinion. So if you don't like it, is not my problem. Thanks!
Крайнев, конечно, играл тоньше. Но Мацуев, ИМХО, второй после Крайнева по тонкости и не уступающий ему по виртуозности. Счастье, что в наше время есть такой музыкант!

Amazing!!! Not ony extremely virtuoso way of playing but also very convincing interpretation. He plays so good that it's almost sacrilegious
An incredible piano concerto has to be one of the greatest ever written.
Another masterful Matsuev/Gergiev collaboration.
What else can one say? Prokofiev with played by pianist and orchestra with grandiose technique, panache, and HEART!
Gergiev could conduct with a soup bone and he be one of the greatest ever.

Thrilling and super exciting performance with all out power and energetic drive.
Top performers-top performance.
これはかっこいい。
全体的に鋭いけどダンパーペダルの使い方が独特で時々わざと響きをぼかしてくる。このバランスが絶妙で音楽に奥行きと立体感が生まれている。
Nevychádzam z úžasu ! Ako môže jeden človek tak bravúrne zvládnuť taký široký a náročný repertoár ! BRAVO DENIS !!!
Merci Denis, merci, merci, merci… orchestre extraordinaire aussi, Gergiev merveilleux…

I'm no purist but I think he is a talented pianist. This is my favorite concerto. He has energy and a certain fever for the music.
Как необычно видеть людей без масок на концерте! Люди в 2012 не подозревали что их ждёт впереди.
Успокойтесь, все уже без масок
Bravo !
the greatest performance of this piece I have ever heard. wow!
Shame about the rit at the end.
perhaps Argerich?

Can someone explain why this is so much better than Yuja Wang. Brighter piano? Better direction, better pianoist?
Denis Matsuev is considered to be one of the best in the world. He is on a whole different level honestly. The people he plays for too are on a whole different status.
It's her bland interpretations. They lack soul or something. Speed is more important to her than expression of something.

@@Genevieve8002 exactly. It's really horrible because she is a technical prodigy but not a musical one.
Is the maestro actually using a toothpick? Like, for real?
É, veio, eu também achei. Esse Prokofiev tá mil grau.
well, maestro Yevgeny Mravinsky used to use a one (1) meter baton. So, why not a toothpick? :)
Pardon, Gennady Rozhdestvensky had a 1 meter baton
Yeah that baton was as tall as he was.
Did he replace the final octaves with some dissonant stuff or was that a written ossia? Because i always remember the last part as both hands playing in perfect octaves
