So grateful to live in a time when I can listen to this beautiful music so effortlessly with a good pair of headphones. I live in a little island called Dominica with zero chance of seeing such a performance live! What a comfort to my advancing years. Thanks all!
Good "cans" (i.e., over the ear high-fidelity headphones) can really help bring you into the experience of listening to great music and videos better than earbuds, or cheaper headphones. Really amazing how much superior they can be when it comes to enjoying the experience.
I'm smiling about your comment. May you enjoy great music for as long as possible!
Helene Grimaud understands Brahms and clearly reveals every possible nuance of meaning in his works. This was a wonderful interpretation. Thank you.
J 'ai 67 ans. J 'aime la musique classique depuis mon adolescence. J ' aime Brahms ( mon compositeur préféré avec JS Bach ) depuis 50 ans. Le second concerto pour piano de Brahms , je l 'ai écouté des centaines de fois. Mon premier vinyle 33 tours de ce concerto était la version de Alexandre Uninsky avec l ' Orchestre de la Résidence de La Haye , dirigé par Willem Van Otterloo... puis j' ai eu Guillels et Reiner , Zimmermann , et tant d 'autres.... ( dont Julius Katchen !!!! ) J' ai écouté de jeunes pianistes chinoises se confrontant au monument brahmsien..., des " grands" pianistes échouant lamentablement ( je ne dirai pas le nom...). Maintenant je crois que je viens d 'entendre , je ne dirai la " meilleure version" mais la version qui me plait le plus et qui, quand je l 'écoute, me fait toucher du doigt l' insondable mystère de la communion des âmes. Ecouter une oeuvre entendue des centaines de fois , et vibrer comme la première fois ! merci Hélène.
Helene Grimaud plays with such passion and sensitivity--a marvel to hear and behold. The orchestra does a superlative job in accompanimnt and the cello solo stands out as particularly memorable--bravo all!!!
Marvelous ❤!
Brahms certainly could never imagine such a beauty interpreting some of his inspired pieces. Helene is splendor at its utmost: performance, charisma, refinement, grace. Rejoice, Mr. Brahms!
when I had my thyroid cancer surgery, I asked my surgeon to play the 3rd movement during the operation, in case I die on the table, the last thing I hear would be this piece of music
One of Hélène's best performances I think.
Helene Grimaud plays this B-flat major Brahms Concerto with such elegance, expression and grandeur...and mastery!
Ich habe mir mehrere Interpretationen dieses Klavierkonzertes angehoert. Die von Helene Grimaud ist unuebertrefflich!!!! Einfach die beste. Ich danke ihr fuer dieses Geschenk!!!
I have listened to this concerto like 5 times in the last few days, it is just so, so, so amazingly beautiful!
I have listened to it every day for several years, sometimes several times a day, and often along with No. 1 as well.
I know what you mean
If so, I highly recommend that you give a try to some other renditions of this marvelous concerto. There are many. At home I have at least 5 different performances... on Vinyl CD's and others. For example 2 great performances by Artur Rubinstein, with 30 years between the recordings - it is amazing to see how the perception changed. Also try Radu Lupu, Sviatoslav Richter.... I think you'll be enriched even more.
A strange relentless and fascinating bear of a concerto played wonderfully by Ms. Grimaud!
My god, the beginning of the Andante is out of this world. I would have given everything to be able to compose that melody
As a composer, I have to respond.First of all, listeners fail to recognize that it is the treatment of the melody that usually makes it memorable. Many melodies are little more that scales or simple arpeggios or their relatives. It is the harmonization and articulation that raises it to a new plain. You too could write extraordinarily beautiful melodies. But it take lots of work. It is not merely the gift of inspiration. Yes I agree it is a wonderful melody. And bless you a Brahms lover.
The whole movement is sublime.
The opening dialogue between the horn and the piano gets me every time.
It's a great an inussual introduction.
Oh me too!
Me too.
Just the the French horn was a little bit out of tune.
@@MARTIN201199 Imbecile moron, all this means is you don't give a damn about the performance, just looking for something to complain about.
The cellist's solo is breathtakingly beautiful, and somewhat sad, reflective.
THE MOST BEAUTIFUL! HELENE GRIMAUD - BRAHMS!
I am in love with both... Johannes Brahms - Piano Concerto No. 2 in B-flat major, Op. 83
and Hélène Grimaud... forever
John, you are not alone, me too for ever
@@michelhugonnot9718 moi aussi
Just saw her perform at Disney Hall - Divine! Standing ovation - played with such depth of feeling. She is surely the greatest living Brahms interpreter. Had great center seats with a perfect view of her finger work. Love the way she strides out onto the stage in a simple black slacks and top. It says, "I'm here to play bitches!" - she's not flouncing around. The only drawback - her beautiful face was hidden behind her hair.
Outstanding! Helène Grimaud understands, feels and interprets Brahms like no other 💫
This is the best performance I've seen of this concerto at least. Seems like she's been giving the orchestra a pointer or two as well.
Pretty darn good, but Cliburn/Reiner is greatness unmatched, beating this rendition soundly. Taking nothing away from Grimaud; she understands Brahms well.
The Best Brahms concerto no 2 players are Really=Sviatoslav Richter with The Paris Orchestra from 1969 Richter the most monumental and Best structure for Brahms better than Cliburn or Grimaud! Edwin Fischer from 1942 Fischer the big Genius better than Grimaud! Grigory Sokolov with the Finnish Radio Symphony video from 1987 had the Best piano sound for Brahms better than Grimaud or Cliburn! Sokolov his rhythmic vitalness is unbeatable 4th mvt much better than Cliburn's 4th movement!!
Hélène Grimaud e Brahms, uma dupla de fenômenos! Hélène Grimaud é insuperável nesta interpretação! Simplesmente magnífica!
Surtout écouter ! ne rien dire ! chutt ! vous êtes au Paradis Musical . Merci Hélène Grimaud ! Une ANGE par la délicatesse de son toucher piannistique ... Merci ! Hélène !
So powerful and mesmerizing. And yet, she perfectly controls every single note.
It doesn't get much better. I've listened to this piano concerto by numerous artists for decades and this performance (and the studio version) are 2nd to none, especially when it comes to the 1st movement.
Not True! Grimaud is semi final player in big piano competition!! The Best Brahms concerto no 2 players are Really=Sviatoslav Richter with The Paris Orchestra from 1969 Richter the most monumental and Best structure for Brahms better than Grimaud! Edwin Fischer from 1942 Fischer the big Genius better than Grimaud! Grigory Sokolov his Brahms no 2 with Finnish Radio Symphony video from 1987 had the Best piano sound for Brahms much better than Grimaud's piano sound! Sokolov his rhythmic vitalness is unbeatable 4th mvt much better than than Grimaud's 4th mvt! Sokolov the most Titanic Brahms no 2!!
What power, fire, passion and beauty...Only H. Grimaud has that magical spark in her spirit and mind to convey Brahms sound beauty! Brahms' Piano Concerto no.2 is a well known complex and difficult composition.
This beautiful concerto never gets old, The performance was wonderful. Ms. Grimaud needs to be congratulated for all her years of preparation and hard work in becoming one of the world's finest pianists. The conductor also needs lots of praise for his excellent work.
Little ol' Rochester NY, where then black-haired and boyishly handsome CONDUCTOR David Zinman got his "start" in conducting--with the RPO, thanks you...
@@richrol58 good memories

I remember him from those days. He always "held his own".
Over and over I come here to see her passion, and, perhaps, to detect her pain. As much as she feels the genius of music, so also I believe, she feels a depth of emotion few can reach. How bright and how dark must her soul be. Perhaps it's within these extremes that the 'miracle' of which Mr Jacobin Girondiste writes. It's an accessible mystery, here, but the nature of all this will be a source of wonder for me for as long as I can listen.
I’m deeply deeply moved. Has anyone ever heard this magnificent monster of a piano concerto played without any flaws?! This one is pretty close. Thank you Helene for taking such care of every single note and phrase, and yet giving over the depth of emotions of this colossal piece. I was brought up on Arthur Rubinstein’s interpretations with the Łódź Philharmonic Orchestra, and Helene’s interpretation reminds me of Arthur’s, in its gravitas and finery all at the same time - Brahms is having a feast… 🤍
I agree with it the same. I am moved to tears as well on the account of this magnificent and "bombastic" introduction of Brahms's sophisticated compositional style/manner of composition where all kinds of vibrations and emotional feelings in one arouse and on the same time are stirred up and are synchcronicially distributed evenly over/in the whole human body. I am feeling with the whole body and heart and soul this magical music. A gift of God !! And, the divine pianistress !!!
@@michaelunger3933 Thank you for this beautiful description
Very gifted and clever lady. Modest and humble about it. 👍🏼👍🏼
The rendition is just amazing, just like when I first heard it 20+ years ago. I like this concerto played at a higher speed than most of the interpretations I’ve seen or heard in recent years. And this is just perfect.
Fantastic playing of the piano by Grimaud !
Superhuman effort this concerto is one of its elements . Grimaud has her own incomparable and heroic way in this mighty , mighty work .Sokolov is profound in this all who hear him will feel that he sees it and can make it sound as Brahms should !
Helene,anew great performance of you in this concert.Congratulations.Your playing magnifies the work of J Brahms.
Every - Single - Note sings with meaning & beauty. Absolutely my favorite performance - by a large degree. Thank you for posting. BTW - the cellist (Andante) is spectacular
Helene: sempre sensível, brilhante, maravilhosa! Uma alegria imensa ouvi -la!!! Muito obrigada! (de São Paulo/ Brasil).
Why the hell is the world in such a mess when we have SO MANY examples of the heights to which human kind can ascend, with performances of such beauty and compassion like this.
Why is it that the other side of our nature gets so much attention but these glorious achievements get so little.
I didn't quite get what you meant in your first sentence. But in my perspective, that is due to the strive for competition in the apparent constant need of economic expansion feeding the capitalist. At least that is what the bulk of Earth's population is concerning themselves with, instead of embracing and preserving the actual beauties of life like these.
Science-is-Truth What a question! A very good question btw. The only answer that makes any sense to me is remembering that there are opposing forces and those forces are very busy!
Well said.
So, Shakespeare said world is unweeded garden.
She opens the gate of the garden of bliss for me.
You're very young.
All credit to Brahms for such a great masterpiece for great pianists and orchestras to bring us such delight. This piano concerto is one of my favourites in the reperoir. I love it.
Do you play it?
SHE IS A VERY FANTASTIC PIANIST..IN THE FIRST PIANO CONCERTO BY BRAHMS GRIMAUD IS OUT OF THIS WORLD...
Flawless and sensitive - and the most beautiful piano concerto.
Hélène was once considered France’s most beautiful lady. She models for L’Oreal, when you walked in Europe, you see her super gigantic size posters hanging from every where...even in Milan and Florence...
Brahms is her favorite composer, I would strongly advise you to listen to her Brahms’ intermezzo, they are breathtaking. Her teacher is the famous Martha Argerich.
We are friends, and she is so sweet and humble that one would never expect from such a famous artist.
And she loves wolves.
True but I think her best Brahms recording is Beethoven Piano Concerto 5 :))
I love to watch and hear her play. I feel that her connection to the music is so strong, like she is existing within it. The thing I noticed when I first became aware of her and saw her for the first time on you tube (I believe it was an article in The New Yorker) is how understated her clothing and hair choices are. It's as if she is trying to make herself almost invisible. In this performance the dark purple silk jacket is stunning but not overwhelming. Plain black pants, plain black shoes. It really lets the music shine. Based on your post about her modeling, it is just interesting that she downplays her beauty when she plays the piano.
She has a collection of great music about the water. You can find it here, at RUclips. It is a marvelous collection. Only music, not images . . . a real shame.
I doubt you really know her. Everyone knows her teacher was J.Rouvier (also once her lover) lol
Bravo and fantastic performance .I love it .Thank you The Gold Piano .
La musica di Brahms è evocativa di mondi che si trovano nell' Iperuranio:mondi di Bellezza e altezza di spirito,di una dimensione assoluta , definitiva, esaltante dell'Essere che si proietta nell'infinito.
¡¡Uno de los mejores conciertos para piano y orquesta este N°2 de Johannes Brahms.
Y la versión de Helen Grimaud magnífica junto con la dirección y el sonido de la orquesta!!
¡¡Bravo por Helene Grimaud!!
＃ライブ会場映像の魅力、＃楽曲の演奏速度最高です。指揮とオーケストラの皆さんの演奏はニュアンスアーティキュレーションは元より、偉大なピアニスト奏者の演奏は音の強弱(深い音)音色が素晴らしいですね感動しました。❤️また複数のTVカメラ切り替えオペレーターの芸術的センスのスイッチャーのカメラ割り映像が素晴らしいですね感動しました。❤️ありがとうございました。😊
In this simple third movement you can hear where so much of the 20th century romanticism came from. Never up to the level attained but it was a star to shoot for. Simply a hymn in a love song.
Absolutely breathtaking !
A performance that combines power with gentleness. Stunning! Amazingly beautiful rendering of this magnificent piece.
Power and gentleness: Brahms signature. Indeed.
This is a stunning performance of an extremely difficult piano concerto ... Helene Grimaud is surely one of the best pianists in the world? ... and, she is gorgeous with beautiful hair and a very beautiful smile (see the end when she is taking the applause) ... I can't stop watching the end of the First Movement!
+zeuszeus00 Beautiful??? DIE WELT Klassik inszenierung von Axel Brüggemann Das Haus des Buches in Dresden ist ein sehr aufgeräumter Laden. ... Hier erklärt die Belletristik - Buchhändlerin: "Ja, die Grimoud, die finden Sie in der Biologie, sie ist doch eine Wolfsforscherin." ... Die Odyssee im Dresdner Haus des Buches verrät viel über den Wandel der Klassik. Vorbei die Zeit, in der ein Musiker allein durch seine Interpretation des zweiten Satzes der Mondscheinsonate oder die exzentrische Analyse des "Wohltemperierten Klavieres" Erfolge feierte. Heute reicht es nicht einmal mehr, nur schön zu sein. ... Inzwischen müssen die Jung - Stars aber noch mit einer Abenteuergeschichte hinter ihrer Hochglanzfassade aufwarten, um Beachtung in der auf Fortissimo gestimmten Klassik - Nische zu finden. Krankheiten, Affären und Sex sells. Also wird vor dem Singen, Streichen und Klimpern freimütig über Eßstörungen und Männerphantasien geplappert. Und davon, dass Wölfe und ungezähmte Frauen den gleichen Ruf hätten und gegen beide die gleiche feindselige Gewalt ausgeübt würde. ...Daß der Klassik - Zirkus wunderbare Bücher hervorbringen kann, hat die Krimi - Autorin Thea Dorn vorgemacht. In ihrem Roman "Ringkampf" karikiert sie Diven, Rivalen und Opern - Fetischisten. Villeicht findet sich jemand, der die nackte Tatsachen als Autobiographie erzählt. Das ganz normale Leben: ungeoutete Schwule, verknallte Intendanten, weltweite Netzwerke, die unter Hotelbettdecken geflochten werden. Diese Geschichte würde das Haus des Buches sicher als Belletristik in die Regale räumen - weil die Klassik der beste Roman ist.
+Georges Cancan Affären! Schnuckelklassik! Berliner Zeitung 12.08.2006 von
Wolfgang Fuhrmann "Ein neuer Typus hält Einzug ins Klassik -
Gewerbe: junge Musiker mit verstärktem Niedlichkeitsfaktor" ....
"Die Vermarktungsmethoden, mit denen die Klassikfirmen heute aus ihrer
Talsohle herauszukommen versuchen, orientieren sich offener an den
glänzenden Oberflächen des Mainstream-Popgeschäfts. Dabei geht es nicht
so sehr um den Sex-Sells-Faktor, wie er etwa bei Anna Netrebko
eingesetzt wird, wenn deren schwarze Mähne so wild ums Haupt fliegt,
dass man förmlich den Praktikanten in den Kulissen mit dem
Hochleistungsventilator hantieren sieht. Die neue Strategie der
Plattenvermarktung setzt vielmehr auf das Prinzip Schnuckelklassik: eher
Knuffigkeitsfaktor als Erotik (was ja auch immer etwas mit Distanz zu
tun hat), eher Kylie Minogue und Britney Spears als Christina Aguileira
oder Madonna. Noch ist Schnuckelklassik kein Begriff - Google kennt
keine Einträge. Aber wir werden um das Wort nicht herumkommen, um diese
Marketing-Strategie zu beschreiben. Stars müssen nicht nur so jung sein
wie das ersehnte Zielpublikum, sie müssen auch so niedlich und knuddelig
wirken, dass man sie am liebsten als Stofftiere mit ins Bett nehmen
würde. Dafür dürfen sie auch ruhig Beethoven oder Bartók spielen - und
tun es in den meisten Fällen nicht einmal schlecht. Der Glaube,
klassische Musiker müssten sich mit Crossover-Projekten für die Pophörer
profilieren, ist ein wenig geschwunden. Ruppiger Spätpunker-Charme wie
bei Nigel Kennedy und allzu offensive asiatische Sinnlichkeit wie bei
Vanessa Mae sind jedenfalls passé. Angestaubt wirken diese beiden
Vertreter der 90er-Jahre vor allem auch durch ihre ständigen
popmusikalischen Anbiederungen (Elektrogeige und dergleichen). Heute, da
der Klassikleiter der Universal Music Group Deutschland, Christian
Kellersmann, als Credo verkündet: "Klassik ist die neue Popmusik", hat
sich die Beweislast eher umgekehrt, und so wird demnächst Sting ein
Album mit Liedern des elisabethanischen Lautenisten John Dowland
aufnehmen. Nicht zufällig bei der Deutschen Grammophon (DG), die zu
Universal gehört. Und nicht zufällig kommen auch die meisten
Schnuckelklassiker bei diesem altehrwürdigen Klassik-Label groß raus.
Das ist auch historisch nicht unverständlich. Denn sollte je eine
Geschichte der Schnuckelklassik geschrieben werden, würde der Geigerin
Anne-Sophie Mutter, Karajan-Zögling und DG-Star, darin gewiss die Rolle
der Ahnherrin zukommen - auch wenn sie dem pausbäckigen Wunderkinddasein
längst ent- und in die schulterfreie Abendrobe hineingewachsen ist. So
ist es nur folgerichtig, dass der Typus des Schnuckelklassikers derzeit
in Reinkultur vor allem bei jungen Geigerinnen auftritt. Man denke nur
an die Amerikanerin Hilary Hahn, deren immer ein wenig von
Jungmädchen-Ernsthaftigkeit geprägtes Antlitz beim Betrachter
unwillkürlich den Eindruck entstehen lässt, hier mache sich jemand ganz
doll Gedanken über den Zustand der Welt. Im Gespräch kann sie
zurückhaltend bis zum Nichtssagenden sein. Tatsächlich aber ist Hahn
durchaus - und sehr amerikanisch - offen für allerlei volksnahen Unfug;
auf ihrer Internet-Seite findet sich wunderbare "Fan Art";
Selbstgemaltes von Bewunderern (wir empfehlen das lustige Sonnenbild!),
außerdem gibt es "Itty Bitty News" (zum Beispiel eine Todesanzeige ihres
Meerschweinchens Psyche: "starb am 30. Juli 2004 mit zweieinhalb Jahren
an einer rätselhaften Verdauungsstörung") und ein regelmäßig geführtes
Reisetagebuch. Die Seite enthält auch Tipps, wie man alleine Zeit in
einem Hotelzimmer verbringen kann: zum Beispiel mit "Lesen", "Auf dem
Bett auf und ab springen", "Bügeln", "Fernsehen (Filme, ausländische
Sendungen, Tierrettungsshows, Sport oder verrückte amerikanische
Sendungen, wenn jemand Amerikaner ist und Heimweh hat)", "Alle Möbel
umstellen (eine meiner Lieblingsbeschäftigungen)" und so weiter.
Außerdem führt Hahn gerne mit Mitmusikern Interviews, wobei immer
dieselben Fragen gestellt werden: "Ist Schokolade eine Droge?" -
"Lieblingstiere?" - "Was halten Sie von Bach?" - "Schnittblumen?" und so
fort. Dass man sie auf ihren Fotos kaum je lachen sieht, ist also
erstaunlich; da sie diese Fotos aber selbst auswählt, vielleicht auch
erklärbar. Sie sieht sich, wie so manche junge Dame, wohl nicht gern
selbst beim Lachen zu. Ein richtiger Wonneproppen hingegen ist Hahns
niederländische Kollegin Janine Jansen: Sie strahlt am liebsten von
einem Ohr zum anderen. Jansen ist sich auch nicht zu fein, auf ihrer
Homepage mit einer Fotogalerie von nicht weniger als fünfzehn Bildern zu
prunken, während ihre lettische Konkurrentin Baiba Skride sich gerade
mal sechs gestattet. Und wo Skride auf dem Cover zu ihrem Solo-Recital
in Jeansanzug vor einem Bretterzaun street credibility einforderte, da
sieht man Frau Jansen in abendgerechten Tüll- und Seidenträumen, aber
auch im kleinen Schwarzen oder schlichten weißen Hosenanzug. Kurz: eine
Frau fürs zarte Geigendiner, wo Skride eher den Typ zum Pferdeausreißen
gibt. Die schnuckelklassischste aller Photogalerien aber hat die
Berlinerin Caroline Fischer aufzuweisen. Auf ihrer Website präsentiert
sich die "Pianistin aus Leidenschaft" auf neunzehn (Rekord!) Bildern in
allen Lebenslagen: sinnlich schmollend, verschmust lächelnd, kühn viel
nacktes Bein von sich spreizend. Man meint, plötzlich in die
Bewerbungsmappe für eine Teenie-Modelagentur geraten zu sein, so
ungehemmt trägt Fischer hier ihr Aussehen zu Markte. Und Klavier spielen
kann sie auch noch! Die Herren spielen bei der Schnuckelklassik
vorläufig noch die zweite Geige. Rolando Villazón, an dessen Charme
nichts zu rütteln ist, hat große haarige Raupen statt Augenbrauen, und
der junge griechische Geiger Leonidas Kavakos besteht überhaupt nur aus
Behaarung. Das mag für Teddybären angehen - die Bedingungen der
Schnuckelklassik erfüllt ein freundlicher Klavierknuddel mit lustiger
Igelfrisur aber doch besser. Der Mann heißt Lang Lang und hat schon
hartgesottene Politik-Redakteurinnen dieser Zeitung in Verzückung
versetzt. Und ein ganz heißer Kandidat als erster
Schnuckelklassik-Dirigent ist Gustavo Dudamel. Lockenköpfig,
liebenswürdig, enthusiastisch wie ein Welpe, laut der Tageszeitung "El
Universal" einer der schönsten Menschen Venezuelas - und ein wunderbarer
Musiker, der demnächst, so ein Zufall, groß bei der DG rauskommen wird.
Herzigkeit sells! Und Klassik ist die neue Schnuckelmusik.

Ein neuer Typus hält Einzug ins Klassik-Gewerbe: junge Musiker mit
verstärktem Niedlichkeitsfaktor: Schnuckelklassik!!!" Helene Grimaud gehört dazu!
+zeuszeus00 I'd seen her in Cleveland (when I was still in the US) play Beethoven's 5th Piano concerto. Her emotion is incredible. I cannot picture anyone else playing this, her Rachmaninov 2 is brilliant too.
her looks should have absolutely nothing to do with what the performance is like - does anyone think Curzon was handsome?
oh, how gloriously politically correct! ... let's agree not to censor each other, or there will be no conversation at all!
Meiner Ansicht nach die beste Interpretation des 2. Klavierkonzertes von Brahms, die es ueberhaupt gibt. Helene Grimaud ist einfach fabelhaft!!!
One wants to fall on one's knees and worship-but who first(?)-Brahms or Grimaud, but certainly both. Brahms has created something of such luxurious beauty but made it so impossibly difficult to play that it is a miracle that a human being could be found who can play it. This music is a message from the gods.
You complete idiot! The composer is always infinitely more important than the performer, "who first" you say?!! You musical buffoon. Your level of stupidity is embarrassing.
I think you're the complete idiot to use such outrageous language in response to a person adoring the composer as well as the pianist.
You are a disgrace!
Grimaud first. Maybe she will notice in time to favor me with a smile. Brahms will not likely pay any attention.
It's a message to Clara my friend. The recipient understood it.
She has such a way with BOTH concerti. Zinman and orchestra are in top form in loving accompaniment. Thanks for posting this wonderful performance.
Just went to see her in Kimmel Center Philly. It was sublime and she played it effortlessly and expressively. I was about 6 feet from her piano, and I was lucky enough to hear the richness of sound that came from her magical weaving of the this piece using Steinway. Some audiences clapped after the first movement, sigh.

***** this piece
aristotle358 where did you even conceive such an idea LOL. Did I even comment on her beauty? I was praising her performance. (I admit she has a certain grace that matches her piano skills if you insist on calling me an extrinsic guy :D)
Li Kevin My comment was not aimed at you but at Georges Cancan. Now I have deleted it on the strength of thinking that you were he!
aristotle358 LOL ok, I can't read German so I couldnt figure out who you were aiming for, now its all clear.
Helene Grimaud is currently my favourite pianist, and for good reason! She's excellent!
ondoutedly mine too.
Helene Grimaud was The semifinalist Tchaikovsky Piano Competition in 1986! Uchida was More worse 10th place in The Queen Elizabeth piano competition in 1968!
@@RaineriHakkarainen I was listening to Uchida playing the Mozart D Minor Concerto and really did not enjoy her interpretation of the 2nd Movement. The articulation in fast section was heavily "doctored".
Mein absolut favirite Brahms Interpret
I know what yiu mean
Great performance of a superb concerto by a virtuoso performer - all you need really. The cello solo was also impressive.
I know I’m late, but that’s one the best cello solos in all music literature
Fantastic Helena Grimaud playing Brahms
Thanks for sharing
I had to close my eyes throughout half the concert, so intense! Agree, thoughtful Helene dressed in oriental silk, beautiful lady, too. Merci beaucoup, Helene
Thank you for pointing that out; that was a nice touch on her part, as to her clothing.
Viva Brahms! Bravo Hélène, fantástica! 🎹🎶
El cellista solista muy expresivo, ¡bravo¡ también. Se nota que este concierto les traspasa las fibras, a todos, director,🎻🎷🎺🎵📀 orquesta¡bravo! 🎼🎹🎶👏👏👏👏👏👏👏🏆
В И В А Л Ь Д И
Absolument génial!!!!Non seulement elle est belle mais c'est une fabuleuse pianiste!!je l'adore!!
A truly difficult to play concerto , Helene tackles it with a vigorous passion ....her left hand execution is awesome ..and it is the left hand play what defines this concerto... Thanks Helene
Lovely performance. This is certainly one of my favorite piano concertos and I like comparing different artist's interpretations - that is a great feature of RUclips!
Brahms! Hélène is the best female pianist in the world. Her virtuosity is impressive. Strength and sensibility. Brahms would have been delighted.
what about Martha Argerich? Yuja Wang?
MARTHA.
Grimaud is great, i love her, but Argerich is absolutely perfect.
26:01 will always be my favorite part of this amazing piano concerto.
Same here, exactly the same. Amazing!!
It used to be my least favorite part but now favorite.
@@watutman anche a mio parere. Sono d'accordo.
È di una forza incredibile!
Questo concerto è un miracolo!
Lei è superba! Interpretazione eccezionale, veramente una gioia ascoltarla e ascoltare questo concerto!
Absolut mit einverstanden
Sinto-me uma pessoa privilegiada, pois posso ver e ouvir Helene Grimaud executar com toda a musicalidade que lhe é peculiar esse segundo concerto para piano de Brahms. Um verdadeiro deleite para mim. Muito obrigada, cara Helene! Saudações de Brasil, especialmente da cidade de São Paulo, onde esperamos poder recebe-la e aplaudi-la em breve!!!Obrigada
In english please Madame deCarvalho !!
Manny Ax performing this has always been my favourite until now. This is sublime
Not True! The Best Brahms concerto no 2 players are Really=Sviatoslav Richter with The Paris Orchestra from 1969 Richter the most monumental and Best structure for music better than Ax or Grimaud! Edwin Fischer from 1942 Fischer the big Genius better than Grimaud or Ax!

Sokolov his rhythmic vitalness is unbeatable 4th mvt much better than Ax or Grimaud! Sokolov the most Titanic Brahms no 2!!
I'm always struck by the generosity of Brahms. He gives it big and deep and luscious.
Brilliant Brahms brilliantly played
Quando passei; à ouvir Hélène Grimaud após já outors pianistas qual admirava; não consegui deixar de admira-la mais e pela sua perfeição dedicação e amor ao que faz executando o piano clássicas obras dos compositores que muito respeito; quero que tenhas muitos anos dentro dessa realidade que vive e nos faz mais viver com seu benigno fruto da Vida musical com Amor!..
Grande come sempre Hélène Grimaud, in specie quando suona il "suo" Brahms, senza dubbio un musicista che lei - come la sottoscritta - ama quant'altro mai!
absolutely awesome Maestro Grimaud -- always enjoy your gripping sensibility ---- thank you
＃ライブ会場映像の魅力、＃楽曲の演奏速度最高です。指揮とオーケストラの皆さんの演奏はニュアンスアーティキュレーションは元より、偉大なピアニスト奏者の演奏は音の強弱(深い音)音色が素晴らしいですね感動しました。❤️また複数のTVカメラ切り替えオペレーターの芸術的センスのスイッチャーのカメラ割り映像が素晴らしいですね感動しました。❤️ありがとうございました。😊
This is arguably one of the most beautiful openings to a piano concerto, gave me chills and instant made me cry from how deeply touched I was by it! This is such a beautiful and soulful interpretation of this amazing concerto, thank you for sharing this with the world 🤍🤍🤍
The solo Cellist is first class.Kudos.
I think he is "main hero" of this event, - and the orchestra as well, - they play way better than the pianist :)
Alex Pashkov why comparing the cellist with the pianist? All musicians in this orchestra are playing as one

@@AlexPashkovYou seem to be in the minority in your assessment of Helene Grimaud’s performance. It is safe to say that she is considered by most who have knowledge and understanding of classical pianists to be one of the very best currently playing.
C'est vraiment la "Belle Helene" de tous les points de vue. Excellente interpretation!
Igazi Brahms! Grandiózus,de mélyen lírai is, kiváló művész!
Fantastisch, wie eine Elfe verzaubert Hélène Grimaud die Töne und Gesamtkomposition. Sie lässt mit ihrer Interpretation am Flügel Bilder und Geschichten entstehen.
Ich bin begeistert.
Vollkommen einverstanden!!!
Très très beau concert. D 'une beauté d'âme extrême . Tous mes compliments à cette jeune pianiste. Merci, merci .
Thank you so much for posting this great performance!

An outstanding concerto by an outstanding pianist!
Great very dear Hélène ! I love it very much this Piano Cobcerto N° 2 with You ! Great great for all the BEST TIME
Bravo ,fantastic performance .Thank you The Gold Piano ,
Simply fabulous. A tour de force
Excelente interpretação. Peça densa e difícil para solista e orquestra, realizada de modo magistral!
I love how emboldened people are with their comments about various artists and the works they perform.
Jacobin, I also think that Grimaud's performance is quite wonderful.
One of the greatest, if not greatest, transitions from Development to Recapitulation.
Wonderful. Magnificent. Thank you!
Wie wunderbar greifen dieses Orchester und Hélene Grimaud ineinander!...
Das ist überirdisch was ihr da gemacht habt!
Wie einen Stier bei den Hörnern ergreift sie den Flügel - und er gehorcht ihr -
Großartig
This is just lovely and we are so fortunate to be able to see and hear her!
This REALLY IS an extraordinarily great performance of the Brahms Klavierkoncert 2, while Grimaud is much better here further to the support of Zinman and the Japanese band than she is in her most recent recording of the work with Andris Nelsons. The focus and concentration by this orchestra on the score, and the tempos and markings by the conductor are quite riveting, while Grimaud's truly courageous playing testifies to her being one of the very greatest of piano artists performing in the world today. With much grateful thanks to 'The Gold Piano' for sharing this online, while thanks too, for Helene's almost equal to this live B1!
@Frank Skoda-Simmons What, you've never heard of an orchestra referred to as a band before?
People who claim to not like any *CLASSICAL MUSIC* can not have heard this incredible work...
Они наверное не знают что утверждают просто
JUST
Про Это ГОВОРЯТ помойму?
,,О ВКУСАХ НЕ СПОРЯТ,,
Helene Grimaud's rendition of this Concerto is extremely beautiful and quite awesome...
HG tem o dom de fazer parecer que cada peça executada é primeira audição mundial, algo nunca dantes visto, ouvido ou presenciado.
Beautiful and powerful performance!!!!!
Saw her at the Théatre de Champs-Élysées playing Bach. She gave such an incredible performance, and afterwards came to talk and sign cds, books, and whatever else. She was beautiful beyond what the pictures or videos show and was so down to earth. Later heard Maurizio Pollini that week play the Well Tempered Clavier, Book One. This trip to France some ten years ago has given me a lifetime of memories.
exceptionnel ! Plein de grâce et de modestie ! Une artiste magnifique: précision et nuances. L'orchestre , son chef et ses instrumentistes sont d'une précision et d'une compétence extraordinaire. Ce fut une magnifique soirée ! Deo gratias ! Oui, merci au Seigneur de nous donner de tels artistes !MERCI à chacun d'eux !

I love it. The horns are acknowledged because they got the right notes out.
Fabulous, compassionate, from the hart, all you can do is just listen to a miraculous performance of music
Heureusement qu'à notre époque si différente à tout point de vue , des artistes savent encore s'intéresser et interpréter des œuvres inoubliables
Qué placer escuchar a Hélène Grimaud. Interpretaciones líricas, románticas!!!
