You're introducing me to many new classical songs which I do not know as I'm still very new to the genre, so I wanna say thank you for that and uploading, entertaining thousands and bringing a smile to everyone of us.
Wow. One of my favorite pieces in the piano repertoire. It‘s my ultimate goal to be able to play this well one day. Btw, you guys gotta listen to Zoltán Kocsis‘s recording of this sonata if you haven’t already.
Have no worries, Rakhmaninov played it 2 times slower when he suspected too many slow folks were in the audience. I think that's true.Thus you must be smart. Congratulations! It's not a mistake. It's pure cognitive power to leave the playback speed at x2 and say it still sounds phenomenal! Maybe even try 8x?
Especially this one. This is one of the most deceptively difficult sonatas in piano history. Also I've also done visualizer videos before. Playing the piece accurately is just half the pain. Without a really good laptop/computer capable of running the heavy softwares and such, it took me 15 hours fully staring at a computer to create a video
Such a powerful, beautiful piece of music. You definitely have the feeling for Rachmaninoff, bravo! This very piece got me into music conservatory, and has always been a piece I have a personal connection with, so I’m truly glad it’s getting the publicity it deserves. Congratulations on your talent and dedication! (The third movement of this sonata actually injured me a little, so be careful with that one!)
Such a great interpretation and video! You should play some Medtner's sonatas (most Night wind sonata and Sonata romantica), they are so atonishing and underrated!
I'm not an aficionado on international pianists but can someone explain why we few, we fortunate few have the joy of watching and listening to this genius ! Stunning!!
WOW. Just wow. Really great playing of one of my favorite piano sonatas. Maybe one day I will learn it too, it's definitely one of the best pieces ever written... now we need you to upload the other movements tho, specially the second one!
i know right, it looks way easier than it is, with the polyrhythm confusing me lol. The rhythm in the piece keeps switching and takes lots of work to get used to
Awesome piece and performance as always!!! I would like to see some piece of Alkan in this format if u know some. Keep ur great job!!! You are the best piano channel in the youtube in my opinion :b
OMG THANK YOU SO MUCh!I HAD REQUESTED THIS EARLIER IN ANOTHER VIDEO.BRILLIANT INTERPRETATION.ID LOVE TO SEE THE OTHER 2 MVTS AS WELL.IT WOULD BE AMAZING THANKS!!!!
There could be other piano channels but i prefer just you, because of your effort to make beautiful music and creating a very big répertoire. I can hear something very different from you, your playing is different and i think i can understand you more than other pianists.
excellent interpretation! the first two minutes are full of power, strength! very classic of rachmaninoff, the intensity, the sound is beautiful! I love how from minute four on, everything is pure madness, the piece scales in tension to free itself in the main chords! super strong, fast and heavy, great, very great performance!
Wow, great interpretation! Your sound and color is amazing! I love this sonata - in real, I'm a Rach fan! Please play the other movements this wonderful "Opus"!
Just subscribed recently and now you're playing possibly my favourite piece ever. I guess it was meant to be haha. It's beyond challenging, I hope you get to the other movements especially no. 2🙏🏻❤️
I never read that it was going to be a face reveal, so I don't understand where people got that idea. I'm pretty sure most of us come to experience the impressive virtuosity of your playing. Amazing repertoire and accuracy, well played!!
You must be some secret pro pianist it is not possible otherwise you are so powerful, wonderful work, I love this piece, could you do the seconde mouvement? This is so beautiful, Thanks for your work 🤩
I clicked because TRAUM MADE A VIDEO not to see the TRAUM FACE. Too many great videos to be upset. Everyday a new video that would take a very long time to learn let alone play correctly. Makes me feel like I know something about the piano watching these videos.
😪👏👏👏👏 I think i discovered some new classical sound, which i declined for a long time. The ending was very emotional and then the "Traum" was placed very good. Also nice to hear the outro ^^
응? 오늘 영상 제목 너무 의미심장한데요..? 혹시....설마....트라움님...? 앗!!!! 저는 이제 쉿🤫ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ농담이구요! 최근에 갑자기 다시 꽂혀서 지금 한 닷새째 전 악장 무한반복중인 곡인데 좋아하는 연주자분께서 쳐주시는 행운이라니!! 기상하자마자 들으면서 준비중이에요. 특히 심장이 쿵! 하는 것 같은 첫부분이 정말...ㅜㅜㅜ여전히 좋네요!! 감사합니다!
@@agogurt5820 I'm pretty sure that's just how the expression goes, it isn't supposed to be taken literally, I highly doubt we even know what perfect is in music
If you think you’re here before Liszt you’re wrong Liszt isn’t a person, it’s a mindset. You will always bring Liszt wherever you go therefore no matter how hard you try you will never beat him
This may sound like criticism, but it's curiosity more than anything. According to the visual input you're hitting wrong notes, but it sounds perfect. The section from 1:02 onwards is a prime example. Is it just that your keyboard being ultra sensitive, or are you editing out the wrong notes that you hit so that they can't be heard?
I think it's a combination of both, the midi may be picking up on notes that get brushed over even when they wouldn't sound on an acoustic. This is apparent in a bunch of videos of Traum and Rousseau, while Kassia obviously makes significant edits when she plays wrong notes in the videos I've seen.
@@sahir2013yosif sure, if you watch her videos, and you see the fingers not lining up with the synthesia (especially in more difficult pieces) you can see that it's heavily edited. A good example is paganini etude 6.
I played this in my final recital at Oxford University back in 2012. To be honest, I think you played it better 👏
To be honest, i think so too xD
Sry haha, was just so good option for a roast
@@tjatadaus6544 Haha I walked right into that one 😅
@@LukeFaulkner I enjoy your compositions very much!
Ludwig van Beethoven wait a minute...... how would you know how it sounded?
@@christophersdao3066 he can hear the music by sight reading
The first two minutes of this are genuinely the most epic and badass minutes of classical music I have ever heard
I also thought that... until I heard the full thing! Check out Horowitz's or Kocsis' interpretations of the full piece
Yes, the coda of Mov. 3 is so epic! Love this sonata so much… Traum has to complete it!
@@duqueadriano0081 Kocsis Interpretation is just a piece of art. The greatest piece of solo piano music ever recorded
Mahler 2>
Comparing piano to a whole orchestra with chorus 👍@@Sambrewer26
Powerful music. That's a lot of arpeggios and chords! I like the vibes here
@Vighnesh Ganti I don't have 100k subs and neither does Traum
@Vighnesh Ganti Sorry maybe you didn't realize you were talking to the real one
Who else puts on Traum's music to study and just ends up looking at the synesthesia and getting no work done
Who are you and why are you watching me? O_o
isn’t synaesthesia a condition people have when they can like taste something when they hear a word or something
@@themoonfleesthroughclouds kinda, he means synthesia
@@themoonfleesthroughclouds the more precise meaning is when 2 senses mixes together
@@polyminutes8788 ok
Conspiracy theory, Traum is actually a bunch of talented pianists and that's how they upload so much.
Edit: this was a joke :/
Same hands each time, Seong-Jin Cho?
Edit: on second thoughts, not Cho's personality, looks more like 황선용Seon-Yong Hwang
If only he had different hands for each video. I also think it might be Seong-Jin Cho!
Si se dan cuenta, las manos no siempre son del mismo tono de piel en todos los vídeos.
@@volpetron Da unos ejemplos, por favor!
Checa las primeras canciones de Schubert que subió, en dos o tres de ellas aparecen manos más morenas que en las de los vídeos de Chopin, por ejemplo.
Dude, ur, hands down, the best synthesia pianist in all of youtube, you are not getting enough recognition, this is mind blowing!
I was literally thinking about this piece
1:03 - Loved how you pulled back there. This is one of my favorites. Thanks so much for uploading.
I love easy Rachmaninoff's pieces like this !
Wait
You got a light ?
@@FranzLisztOfficial No, I lost my way...
@@FranzLisztOfficial my king. Where have you been my king? Theres no time. Back to the violin or piano or whatever u call it
😆
Play the 3rd movement of this plzzzzz
Legends never stop uploading, you’re legend, keep up the good work!
🙏
I’ve always wondered what composers like chopin and liszt would think of pieces of later composers like rach and Tchaikovsky
"Pffft, Russians... always showing off"
I love it
@Franz Schubert thank you
@@classicalmusix183 thank you
Actually Liszt was one of the first few musicians to show appreciations to Russian music and has even attended to Tchaikovsky's chamber music before.
You're introducing me to many new classical songs which I do not know as I'm still very new to the genre, so I wanna say thank you for that and uploading, entertaining thousands and bringing a smile to everyone of us.
they are called PIECES not SONGS...
ignore my op. 19
Wow. One of my favorite pieces in the piano repertoire. It‘s my ultimate goal to be able to play this well one day.
Btw, you guys gotta listen to Zoltán Kocsis‘s recording of this sonata if you haven’t already.
Funny seeing you here. Also I can’t second that recommendation more. The late Zoltan Kocsis’s recording is the definitive recording of this sonata.
Kocsis has the best 1st mvt in my opinion.Lugansky has the best 2nd mvt and Horowitz has the best 3rd mvt.
It is my goal to WRITE something like this! 😂
The Kocisis recording will be forever the benchmark. I love how different Traum's approach is, yet it is convincing in its own right.
I think that’s actually your first piece of Rachmaninoff on this channel..
And what a piece to start with from him..
Superb performance! :)
You are right. I played his arrangement but not his own composition. Thanks S K
TRAUM, THE MOMENT YOU UPLOAD WANDERER FANTASIE I WILL CRY OF JOY OKAY?
YESSSS
🙏
today he did it... omg .. .
Do you think you'd be able to play Saint-Saëns / Liszt: Danse Macabre, Op.40? I'd love to hear your interpretation, i've just discovered this piece!
👍
@@TraumPiano absolute fucking chad
Bruh when it started i thought i accidentally left the playback speed at x2. Simply phenomenal.
Have no worries, Rakhmaninov played it 2 times slower when he suspected too many slow folks were in the audience. I think that's true.Thus you must be smart. Congratulations!
It's not a mistake. It's pure cognitive power to leave the playback speed at x2 and say it still sounds phenomenal! Maybe even try 8x?
Why would you ever dislike a piano video, if you knew the effort it took to not only learn a piece but to master it as well.
Especially this one. This is one of the most deceptively difficult sonatas in piano history. Also I've also done visualizer videos before. Playing the piece accurately is just half the pain. Without a really good laptop/computer capable of running the heavy softwares and such, it took me 15 hours fully staring at a computer to create a video

How on earth has your channel still not reached at least 100K subs?!
Such a great interpretation and video! You should play some Medtner's sonatas (most Night wind sonata and Sonata romantica), they are so atonishing and underrated!
Petition for traum to play the fastest hammerklavier he possibly can while keeping the musicality
I'm not an aficionado on international pianists but can someone explain why we few, we fortunate few have the joy of watching and listening to this genius ! Stunning!!
My favourite piece of all time, thank you Traum for uploading! Amazing performance!!
Who else expected a face reveal
Me
The title confused me
I didnt
pretty sure that was the point
me :(
This is literally one of my favourite rach pieces, your Interpretation is so passionate.
WOW. Just wow. Really great playing of one of my favorite piano sonatas. Maybe one day I will learn it too, it's definitely one of the best pieces ever written... now we need you to upload the other movements tho, specially the second one!

When you only got 30 seconds left to finish that damn hard math question
ありがとうございます！
ありがとうございます😘
Beautiful performance my young one
@Franz Liszt, You are always the quickest Liszt, like your fingers
@Franz Schubert yes
Franz Schubert Bc His fingers go FRENZY 😜
7:23 Rach Prelude no. 10 op 32
Esta persona que toca definitivamente es un pianista concertista.
I'm starting to suspect that traum is not a real human, it uploads everyday
I was listening to his 2nd concerto right now! And here is his 2nd Sonata! Love the expression and feeling of this. Outstanding job Traum!
I remember studying this piece a few years ago. Genuinely the hardest piece I have ever attempted.
i know right, it looks way easier than it is, with the polyrhythm confusing me lol. The rhythm in the piece keeps switching and takes lots of work to get used to
Awesome piece and performance as always!!! I would like to see some piece of Alkan in this format if u know some. Keep ur great job!!! You are the best piano channel in the youtube in my opinion :b

4:31-5:03
it's amazing to witness someone master their craft; like Jimmy Butler 1st quarter
I was surprised when I opened youtube! That was superb!!!!
I love this section of Beginner pieces in this Chanell 😁😂
Every day uploads is amazing and all but we understand if you take a break, you deserve it.
Another day, another masterpiece. Good work, my friend.
You must be some secret pro pianist it is not possible otherwise you are so powerful, wonderful work, I love this piece, could you do the seconde mouvement? This is so beautiful,
Thanks for your work 🤩
I still don't understand how you manage to upload such amazing videos consistently and the performance is amazing as always : )
Stunning! Would love to hear your rendition of the 2nd movement because it's so expressive!
Damn this is absolutely insane
YES! Rachmaninoff is severely lacking on this channel for how much skill you have, can't wait to hear more Russian goodness from you
Always remember me and Liszt looking down to see rach composing these beauties
Besties forever 😉
And it already is in the Subreddit as well, nice work!
I love that even traum now addresses the “hidden face of a world class pianist” thing
Great!!! Finally someone plays this piece, it's my favourite!
Great playing! I like this one a lot! Thanks for the fantastic performance!
This piece is really amazing Traum!Thanks for playing it👏👏👌I still can't realize how you play such amazing and hard pieces everyday😅😂❤
Love to Traum, It's a marvelous pianist 🎹 🎶
How do you upload so much, and yet have such quality content?!? A++ 👍👍
maybe he records a vid a day like amybe he's doing one rn
He probably has a schedule like before his first upload he made many pre vids, then post every 2 days while making other videos and learning as well.
My favorite sonata ever!! Great performance!
Can't wait to hear the next movements !
