I FEEL SOME WEAKNESS FOR Rachmaninoff FROM MY TEEN YEARS, WHEN I WAS PASSIONATE ABOUT ROMANTC MUSIC...NOW DAYS, I LIKE HIS MUSIC STILL, BUT NO TOO MUCH ABOUT ROMANTICS ANYMORE, THANK YOU SO MUCH, YOU MAKE A WONDERFUL JOB SHARING THIS MUSIC NOWDAYS.
Thanks, delightful n peaceful to listen this, best elegant classical piano music. Sounds of silence, very relaxing the mind n heart. Absolutely amazing piece for all! Infinite love!🎶🎹
I'm not going to give this recorded performance a thumbs down, but I have to admit it's one of the strangest I've ever heard of these pieces. I hear lots of extremes but I don't hear melodic threads maintained, nor enough rhythmic constants to hold the pieces together. I know these Etudes pretty well, and this performance includes many tempo fluctuations and distortions that simply aren't in the music, and to my mind are not called for. This is of course, just my opinion, and you may discover you like this manner of playing. That's one of the good things about Brilliant Classics making so many recordings available on RUclips. There's enough variety so that everyone will find something they like.
The key is when you say "...to my mind..." There are many Gould and Pogorelić performances you must find "strange, extreme," too. Greetings from Tepoztlán!
@@steveegallo3384 Indeed; the oddest and most unsatisfying performance of Beethoven's 6th Symphony I've ever heard was the Gould recording of the Liszt transcription. Slow and heavy. The fault was not in the arrangement. It surprised me, as most Gould recordings I've heard have featured quick tempos. By the way, that's an impressive aquaduct you have in your town! -unless I'm confusing it with another place.
I'll bet that playing these works from long ago and visiting his home is kind of a surreal! I am getting a Russian biography of Rachmaninov from 1983 by a Russian woman and should get some photos of the old place his letters and photos etc, and I'll see how it affects me.
@judeirwin2222 ... What an interesting thought, I never heard anyone comparing Rachmaninov to Satie or vice versa and would never have joined the two in a single train of thought ... For me, Satie is a typical minimalist, which I can hardly say of Rachmaninov, a maximalist in the sense that he stretched the sonorous possibilities of the piano to the maximum possible, at least in his days (more extreme examples exist nowadays) ... I admit that from all Rachmaninov´s works, his Études-Tableaux are among the most "impressionist" and yet: Satie was not a typical impressionist ...
Very talented and pretty you are, indeed... Your playing would equal perfection if you would keep tempi steadier and not exaggerate the rubato ... Rachmaninov himself was very restrained regarding rubato, his interpretations (also of his own works) can best be described as "steadily flowing" ... Many pianists feel tempted to "recompose" music in an effort to make it "better" than it already is in itself ... Don´t waste your efforts and talent on that! Otherwise, you stand out for your fine, impressionist colours and your superb mastery of dynamics: once whispering, then again thundering ... BRAVO!

There's just nothing that quite compares to hearing a brilliant musician playing a brilliant classic and this is a perfect example.

Amazing performance of one of the most difficult set of piano etudes! Brava Zlata, Bravo Brilliant Classics!!!
These etudes sound like full compositions to me ! Very beautiful, much appreciated.
To me Zlata Chochieva is one of the most underrated pianists nowadays. Brilliant performance!
She's spellbinding, but why would you say "underrated"? I'VE never heard of her.....
@@steveegallo3384 isn't that what underrated means? To be excellent, but not well-known enough. I think you're confusing under- and over-rated.
@@flyingpenandpaper6119 -- You Overrate my persistent vegetative state of Confusion.
@@steveegallo3384 I think you mean overestimate ;)

Beautiful playing, congratulation. Sarita Vigna
This is refreshing and brilliant ! Bravo !
Beautiful... Thank you...
I only can say beautiful playing
@hazemnajjar9401 ... not that is has any relevance, however is that the musical BACH monogram in your signature?
@@WouterTukker Yes, it is.

Ps.
Any simple way to add the 'piano score's on top of the info realtime??
There are little hints of Eric Satie's compositions here. That's interesting! Who inspired which?

Nobody noticing the typo in the title? 😉
@Kenneth Fils They corrected it. If I recall correctly the composer’s name was misspelled.
Check the spelling of the title...come on...
