I have been listening to all of Valentinas performances for over 10 years now. I am a lover of all music. Rap, rock, metal, blues, and all classical. I've always loved classical pianists the most. I've tried to listen to who the critics say are the best, but nobody comes close to touching the soul like Valentina. This woman has no equal. You would have to be insane to criticize her in favor of any other pianist in the world. I've compared her to all. There is no comparison. I will continue to listen to her performances over and over forever. It will continue to get me through the tough times in life.
There was a video on the internet this morning. A lady had a piano out in the countryside, in I assume Africa.She was playing Movement two of Beethoven's Pathetique for an elephant, who stood there beside her listening and making a musical sound. It made me gloriously happy. Nothing is more beautiful than Movement two of Beethoven's Sonata No. 8.
I listen to this all this time, and normally the coughing doesn't bother me. But today, for some reason, it has been frustrating to listen to. But lol. True.
What's also nice is the "hey let's open the crunchy packaging of candy and then munch it furiously with our loud dentures during a piano concert" crowd.
Одна из самых прекраснейших сонат за всю историю фортепианной музыки!... Исполнение - за гранью возможного!... Эта интерпретация - на уровне гениальности!
I do not believe I have ever heard this played with such a high degree of expression - throughout. Thoroughly enjoyed this performance by Ms. Lisitsa. Her dexterity was impressive, as usual. Ron
Quand le monde fléchit autour de soi, quand les structures d’une civilisation vacillent, il est bon de revenir à ce qui, dans l’histoire, ne fléchit pas, mais au contraire redresse le courage, rassemble les séparés, pacifie sans meurtrir. Il est bon de rappeler que le génie de la création est lui aussi, à l’œuvre dans une histoire vouée à la destruction
@@therealconniefrancis I was going to say this is unusual slower than I expected her to play it. But she picks up tempo later. I think a lot of Beethoven is played too slow in general. Remember his was a student of Mozart, and contemporary composers also wrote fast sonatas. The piece suddenly opens up and you hear some Liszt and Chopin in it! Playing Beethoven slowly bring its own set of problems, the fingering becomes a case of perfect timing and you get some strange Bossa Nova rhythms into it, to get your timing right.
Bravo! As for me, Beethoven's work is absolutely about "time and tempo". IMO, Valentina Lisitsa is the most accomplished pianist of any I've heard (I'm 69 years old and heard many), and whose interpretation is flawless (Beethoven and others)! Her interpretation of Sonata, OP 27, Mov 1, 2 & 3 shows this as much as any other Beethoven's work. Ms. Lisitsa proves her expertise in time and tempo with her rendition of Moonlight Sonata above ALL pianist throughout 'recording' history.
Krystian Zimmerman! This is what is said about him: Music for Krystian Zimerman is the art of organizing emotions in time. The Polish pianist's interpretations of everything from Beethoven and Chopin to Schubert and Szymanowski reveal infinite expressive subtleties and the underlying clarity of his story-telling through music. Zimerman's place among today's greatest artists remains not least on the freshness and originality of his performances, always intensely personal and prepared in meticulous detail. He may study a work for decades, exploring every facet and contemplating its meaning before introducing it to his recital repertoire or taking it into the studio. His approach belongs to a dynamic process of creative evolution, one in which self-criticism, deep reflection and intuition play significant parts. “The final thing - that which art is made of - happens in the concert hall,” he notes.
I love watching her face and the sheer joy she gets from playing. La Campanella is also an incredible performance by this truly amazing pianist. Brava, Madam Lisitsa, brava!!
I did not think it was physically humanly possible to actually play this. How brilliant Beethoven was to work out how something that complicated could be managed by two hands. And, let's not forget to say how utterly amazing Valentina is here.
My huge and sincere THANK YOU for that wonderfull cough. I liked how its upper tones reverbs within the halls walls filling room with passionate feeling of scratching inside ones ill throat. Blessed throat. It makes me envy.
Il watched it 1 million Times and still have chills Valentina I juste love the way you play I am fan fan fan its just perfection even silences between notes are beautiful
I played all three movements and performed them. They are very beautiful. And she plays them masterfully, not only technically but with so much Beethoven Emotion.
Милая Валентина! Вы просто чудо! Уж кто, как не женщина смогла понять Бетховена! Наделенная теми же страстями, как и мужчина, но способная понять, утешить! Если бы со мной кто мог так разговаривать,как Вы с музыкой - я была наисчастливейшим человеком! Успехов Вам!
Благодарю!!! Вот так еще можно исцелять людей! Все тягости этой жизни отходят, когда слушаю вас!.. Попадаешь в какой-то Совершенный, другой, настоящий и Живой мир!!! 👏🇷🇺 Новокузнецк❤️
Валентина, слушаю сотни раз ваше исполнение, ваши руки - это нечто! Можно смотреть бесконечно! До слез! Благодарю вас! Вы дарите людям такое наслаждение!!! Брависсимо!!!!
Ooohhhh!!! Ooouuuuu . . . The interpretation of the 2nd movement, oh my, the delicate parts were SWEET!!!!! The diminuendos were exqusitly melted into silence. Just like cotton candy. My goodness!!
Valentina, the way you smile when you play... I imagine it’s because you enjoy sharing your passion with folks who wouldn’t hear it otherwise. I love the way you play. I love even more to see your character shine through the music. It brightens my day a lot. This is how I like to play... to share the music. Thank you for sharing it with us.
Эта заигранная пианистами соната в руках Валентины зазвучала как новая. Слушается на одном дыхании. Хорошо слышны все голоса, при таком быстром темпе! Прекрасно исполнена медленная часть! Десятки лет не мог понять, что интересного в этой сонате - почтенной, хрестоматийной, но не задевающей. А теперь слушаю в исполнении Валентины раз за разом и не могу наслушаться. Наверное, так и Бетховен ее исполнял.
I noticed that if you listen to this video more often you start thinking the coughing belongs to the music. You almost wait for it to happen...It must be difficult for artists like Valentina to concentrate with these disturbances. Usually the coughing is filtered out later on when the rocordings are planned to be sold. I would love to hear the filtered version... :-)
Manji Yes but actually when I listened to the video I only heard 1 cough because I was so concentrated on what she was playing, so, it might be the same for her ^^
I only consciously heard one cough, towards the end of the Grave introduction, and only started 'hearing' the others after reading some comments whilst I was listening!
I wish I could like this a million times. Technically masterful, and with a vulnerable intimacy that makes you feel this is coming straight from the heart. Brava!!!
This is incredibly beautiful...listened to it every night on WNIB Chicago...I remember Harry,art teacher/school principal and his wife Carolyn, genius piano player from Dearborn,Michigan: 1972.Sure hope Jesus Christ shows up soon! Love is forever!💝
Being a huge fan of Chopin and generally don't feel too much about Beethoven's long/monumental pieces, this Sonata in c minor is solidly one of my favorite piece for solo piano and Valentina played it beautifully
You've moved my emotions which your second movement. You've been a beautiful angel who has taken my ears to Beethoven's heaven. I'm always thankful to you. I listen to your songs all night
The second movement is simply enchanting. I didn't know until recently that it was the basis for the chorus of Billy Joel's "This Night". Imagine that! Beethoven and Billy Joel collaborating from centuries apart!
This is superb playing and Beethoven would be most pleased. I now hope she will post the Liszt sonata in B minor which she played along with the Pathetique during her current 2014 European tour.
+ruben3k4 "Do you even grammar?" Do YOU ??? You're insulting one the best pianists in the world, a 42 year old woman who's been a US citizen for over 22 years and her grammar is better than yours ! Her grammar is only slightly off, while your reply literally makes no sense and isn't even a sentence . LOL Oh, the irony. In fact, her grammar is just as charming with her minor mistakes as her Russian accent is, from growing up in Kiev.and I for one , hope she never loses it. You really need to work on your own grammar and stop trying to be a smartass.
Thought i just an ordinary person that can't play piano at all and lack sense of music but i think her piano sounds is really beautiful different from other pianist.. I kinda can get the feeling when heared her playing..
My wife and I drove a thousand miles to hear you play this (and a few other things) in St Paul, Minn. a couple of weeks ago. Enjoyed your performance ++ Well worth the travel. Any plans to record the Bach-Busoni ?
My mother played it which made our house tremble followed by absolute sweetness. Bringing tears in our eyes like rain after a thunderstorms, we boys stood amazed with pride of our mom. It was one of her favorite.
In order for anyone to be able to play magnificent classical pieces perfectly are on another level of consciousness and are automatically at the level of genius and brilliance I think 🤔!!! Thank you Valentina my friend... .. bravo!
You're very very very talented! thankyou for playing such a beautiful song.. this is one of my favourites from Beethoven! and you got me in awe! Amazing! - forever your fans -

Christina Belyy I’m dying!!! 🤣🤣🤣
Give me his/her address as well
They were coughing cuz of the coronavirus
I am always amazed at her style of playing. She makes it look effortless and I know it is not. She is by far one of my favorites.

0:00 - 1:34 -> Music goes slow and calm

Piano instantly gets mad
How perfect timing
I. Grave - Allegro di molto e con brio - 00:00
II. Adagio cantabile - 08:07
III. Rondo. Allegro - 12:52
Thank you!
Cafer ÜNSAL thanks
Thanks. You should add the moments the patient starts coughing
I like the first one the best
God bless you
1:34, my favorite cough. Perfect timing, Beethoven would be proud.
He will not even hear the cough :(
It disturbs me how your username is "Piano Adventure" but your profile picture is a tenor clef xD
@@timothyragland4190 Why is that? 😂😂 What do you had in mind?:DD 😂🙈 Playing a piece with a tenor clef on a piano truly is an adventure xD
The person who coughed there was thinking "Polite people cough in the break." So he did.
PianoAdventure please stay home if you're not ok
I've been listening to this composition every single day after I wake up for so long I can't imagine my life without this piece
There was a video on the internet this morning. A lady had a piano out in the countryside, in I assume Africa.She was playing Movement two of Beethoven's Pathetique for an elephant, who stood there beside her listening and making a musical sound. It made me gloriously happy. Nothing is more beautiful than Movement two of Beethoven's Sonata No. 8.
I love the way she plays with real clarity, the "fortissimo" parts are music and not the usual rumble other pianists produce
I agree...you can practically hear every note.... beautiful
"Hey I can't stop coughing, let's go to a piano concert, fuck everybody else"
I listen to this all this time, and normally the coughing doesn't bother me. But today, for some reason, it has been frustrating to listen to. But lol. True.
What's also nice is the "hey let's open the crunchy packaging of candy and then munch it furiously with our loud dentures during a piano concert" crowd.
True, its annoying. Why would someone stay and cough the whole time!
You're so Pathétique!
Captain Chicken at least you tried
So kind of her to give a concert to terminally ill tuberculosis patients!
Ok this comment takes the prize😂😂😂
Took me 10 seconds to realise
HAHHAHHHHAAH
hey paul, got a favorite opening?
Alexander Alekhine haha took me a minute
Her finger simply gliding over piano and her passion with which she was playing took me to another dimension 🤤😍
1st Mvt = Grave - Allegro di Molto e con Brio -> 0:00;
2nd Mvt = Adagio Cantabile -> 8:06;
3rd Mvt = Rondo: Allegro -> 12:52.
you forgot the cough Mvt
Thanks
Одна из самых прекраснейших сонат за всю историю фортепианной музыки!... Исполнение - за гранью возможного!... Эта интерпретация - на уровне гениальности!
Best empathy and sensitivity there is. And she's fast as well. Gotta love her
definitely one of the great pianists of our time! She can really make the piano sing!
I do not believe I have ever heard this played with such a high degree of expression - throughout. Thoroughly enjoyed this performance by Ms. Lisitsa. Her dexterity was impressive, as usual. Ron
She plays it so fast yet so effortless. It is truly a special rendition. Thank you.

People with heavy coughs and tubercolosis: What can we do this evening? Oh, let's visit a piano concert.
Plot twist: they're also the top donors/patrons 😅😂😂
Barely noticed. The preformance is amazing.

Wonderful performance, The only thing missing was the sound of the gunshot taking out the coughing person.

Charles Sommers Pink panther, "Plink, Plunk, Pink" go watch it, it has a certain connection with this comment.
Bugs bunny did it awhile ago
"come hear the amazing Valentina Lisitsa and the timeless coughs of tuberculosis patients at 7:00 P.M. tonight!"
I just saw this comment and it was brilliant!
90% of the comments are about the coughing
10% are of the actual playing
The first movement is way too fast. The good thing is she unveils some the piece's hidden melodies
@@therealconniefrancis I was going to say this is unusual slower than I expected her to play it. But she picks up tempo later. I think a lot of Beethoven is played too slow in general.

For me, she can do no wrong, but the piano tuner needs a kick up the arse, as there are one or two jangly notes.
Yes, which one was your favourite cough?
So?

Lisitsa es a mi juicio una de las mejores pianistas del mundo. Conjuga pasión, maestría, sentimiento y un aplomo extraordinario.
Beethoven would be proud! So moving, beauty, and elegance it made me weep!
I love watching her face and the sheer joy she gets from playing. La Campanella is also an incredible performance by this truly amazing pianist. Brava, Madam Lisitsa, brava!!
Tell the woman to stop playing. She is disturbing the beautiful cough sonata, I'm here for.
Haha, Brendel made the joke
I love this sonata. Oh my god! That second movement is just perfect. It's all perfect, but that movement is so wonderful and dreamy
Yeah İ agree it gives the same emotion as moolight but more powerfull
É impressionante o nível de perfeição na execução dessa pianista.
So emotive... each movement doesnt fail at bringing me to tears
I did not think it was physically humanly possible to actually play this. How brilliant Beethoven was to work out how something that complicated could be managed by two hands.
And, let's not forget to say how utterly amazing Valentina is here.
My huge and sincere THANK YOU for that wonderfull cough.
I liked how its upper tones reverbs within the halls walls filling room with passionate feeling of scratching inside ones ill throat.
Blessed throat.
It makes me envy.
Avdij Baryshnikov shut up you are weird and stupid that's all I'm saying
You guys must have some serious mental problem if you can't recognize you can't control other's lives nor nature and simply must let it be.
haha LMAO yeah.. it makes me envy the person that coughs in a concert with so much goddess
This my made my day, thank you.
I appreciated they did it right before the allegro as well it really was a nice moment to do that when there was silence
Il watched it 1 million Times and still have chills
Valentina I juste love the way you play I am fan fan fan its just perfection even silences between notes are beautiful
Her tempo in the first movement is 120% of mine. She plays it effortlessly, I fall apart at 80%. I want her dexterity.
What a wonderful talent this lady is. My favourite pianist.
Just incredible. She is like a mad scientist at the keyboard! Amazing ability!
It's a piano
@@macacopedreiro214 and what playing interface does a piano have?
Большое Вам спасибо! Слушая Ваши исполнения, чувствую себя наполненными, счастливым! Это так прекрасно!
I played all three movements and performed them. They are very beautiful. And she plays them masterfully, not only technically but with so much Beethoven Emotion.
It is not mastery to play piano, but supremacy. Thank you Ms. Lisitsa.
She is still my favorite pianist....... Her right hand left hand technique is the best I have seen along with Vladimir Horowitz
Валентина, очень люблю Ваше исполнение! Вы так прекрасно чувствуете. Спасибо.
Милая Валентина! Вы просто чудо! Уж кто, как не женщина смогла понять Бетховена! Наделенная теми же страстями, как и мужчина, но способная понять, утешить!

alittle late, but certain classical performances are doing that to me too, lately.
u need vitamin d

Эта заигранная пианистами соната в руках Валентины зазвучала как новая. Слушается на одном дыхании. Хорошо слышны все голоса, при таком быстром темпе! Прекрасно исполнена медленная часть!
Десятки лет не мог понять, что интересного в этой сонате - почтенной, хрестоматийной, но не задевающей.
А теперь слушаю в исполнении Валентины раз за разом и не могу наслушаться.
Наверное, так и Бетховен ее исполнял.
I noticed that if you listen to this video more often you start thinking the coughing belongs to the music.

i think someone did it on purpose, it actually goes with the tempo haha

I also can't understand why there is always someone, who will cough..
Лисица Великолепна !!!!
Брависсимо !!!!!! , супперб !!!!!! Хеллен !!!!!!
Спасибо Господи за этот талант !!!!!!!!!!!!
А я считаю её исполнение УЖАСНЫМ!!!. Издевательство над произведением Бетховена... Кто не согласен, послушайте Владимира Ашкенази!..

Amo el trabajo de ésta mujer! hermoso.

Gran dominio de la técnica. Sintesis perfecta entre pianista y compositor. Bravo Lisitsa.
For god sake those people in the audience need a doctor..
TCanFT thats what trump wants you to think, o.O
U too Mr. Tuberculosis :(
And you need some common sense. Silence is non-existent in human life. A lot of people have allergies, sicknesses, humidity sensitivity, etc.
Alright Mr. Cage - would you like a cookie?
Frederic Chopin
Yes, Dr Kevorkian.
La mejor versión sin discusión ninguna, bajo mi modesta opinión.
Her performance is phenomenal ! Such clarity, such zest ! One of the best for me. Brava !
I can't get enough of listening to this.
FRAK!!!
Was chillin to my most favoritist sounds and realized it was my most favorite Pianist!!!
I LOVE you Valentina!!!
Being a huge fan of Chopin and generally don't feel too much about Beethoven's long/monumental pieces, this Sonata in c minor is solidly one of my favorite piece for solo piano and Valentina played it beautifully
What is Moonlight? Do you mean Sonata Quasi Una Fantasia Sonata Nr.14 Op.27 Nr.2 C Sharp Minor?
Save anger, I have expressed every emotion that could be expressed from watching/hearing/feeling you play Valentina! Thanks! Thanks! Thanks!
You've moved my emotions which your second movement. You've been a beautiful angel who has taken my ears to Beethoven's heaven. I'm always thankful to you. I listen to your songs all night
I'm sure Beethoven never specified a direction such as "Audience member coughing his lungs out" at the end of the Grave section...
That's ridiculous. The direction would necessarily be in Italian: _Membro del pubblico che tossisce i polmoni_
Well the consequences are certainly quite Grave
LMAO
Breathtaking.
Your playing is absolutely wonderful.
Thank you so much
If this concert would have been during Covid-19, everybody in the hall would be dead by now.
whoa! i love this performance!
I learned this when I was a teen, so I have always had a love for it! Of course I never played it so well! This is amazing!
I wait for this Sonata since so long. I'm so happy to listen your version, just before sleep, it's perfect :) Thanks !
i am bout to go to bed and felt like listening to this. Good call :). Hug to you nodame ^^
This is my favorite interpretation of the first movement! :-)
Old proverb, "The best captains are made by the fiercest of storms". Focus,focus,focus. LORD bless you Valentina
Wonderful, you just let this piece of hard work sound like a walk in the park. I love it!
The second movement is simply enchanting. I didn't know until recently that it was the basis for the chorus of Billy Joel's "This Night". Imagine that! Beethoven and Billy Joel collaborating from centuries apart!
Also a John Lennon song 'Grow Old With Me' (an unfortunate sentiment) on Milk and Honey.
Por dios, esto ese tan hermoso, no hay palabras para describir este sonido tan hipnotizante y abrumador, solo queda disfrutar.
Валентина, Вы прелесть! Ваша игра такая же красивая, как Вы сами и эта музыка. Целую ручки😘😘
Astoundingly beautiful playing.
Lovely to hear talented people such as you.
My best wishes from Brazil 👏
Very well played! I love the precision coupled with feeling! One of my favorite pieces and favorite to play!
This is superb playing and Beethoven would be most pleased. I now hope she will post the Liszt sonata in B minor which she played along with the Pathetique during her current 2014 European tour.

Hell yeah, ValentinaLisitsa is paying attention to all the cough hate! I didn't think it was possible to love her any more :)
I think the coughs must be more delicate like a slight pianissimo. But however, was good.
My mother played it which made our house tremble followed by absolute sweetness. Bringing tears in our eyes like rain after a thunderstorms, we boys stood amazed with pride of our mom. It was one of her favorite.
Right 😉
show us your version of that sonata
@@ingeniero00007 he was talking about the coughs ...

thankyou for playing such a beautiful song..
