He has the perfect attitude towards his music, and yes - one senses he has been a brilliant pianist in his youth. A rare and beautiful document of a great musician remembering his "Opus 1"...
Boulez said that he stopped playing the piano because: to conduct, you need a somehow rigid hand, and to play piano, you need a kind of flexibility (I forgot the exact words he said). But does anyone know the story behind this recording or any information about this?
It is more or less the equivalent for Boulez of the little pieces op. 19 of Schoenberg. The serial principle is simple. There is a basic dodecaphonic row. The row of the first piece is that row. The row of the second piece begins with the second note of the row, and the first note comes to the end, etc. up to the last note.
Actually the first piece begins with the 11 first notes of the row (Ab.... Bb Eb D A! E, C, F, C#, G. F#!) Then there is a chord at bar 4, followed by the missing B, in the upper registry, in octave. I didn't imagine I could find octaves in Boulez's piano writing.
Apparently this was filmed for Austrian television. On RUclips I can only find his performance of the 1st notation (this video) and the 4th notation. Were the whole 12 notations filmed with him playing?
?....you might appreciate thé performance of DIMITRI VASSILAKIS playing those. ( BOULEZ himself delegated this pianist to play " incises in the NY CARNEGIE HALL)....
He absolutely does not play a wrong note. I have known these pieces for twenty years. I've played them myself and heard them played by many, many people. There is not a wrong note here.

Always the life of the party!
Very few people have actually seen Pierre play the piano. Now we add you to the list.

That is music?
@@psijicassassin7166yes

R.I.P. Pierre Boulez ... ... ...1-6-2016 'He will be sorely missed'!
nooo
His music won't be missed, that's for sure!!
He will be deeply missed, sharp ears, rigorous vision, and profound spirituality, he was a great musician.
His music can be made by AI. He sounds generic now.
@@psijicassassin7166who cares
love his music!
This little piece stays with me forever, performed this way.
Como eu procurava por essa música! Fantástica apresentação, parabéns. ❤
Fascinating !!
still love it!!
What a lovely performance of this piece! Love it!
A lovely performance but it is not music.
@@psijicassassin7166who cares
I see this place daily, but now its way more interesting
What perfect dissonances😳!
Marvellous pianism.
He knows how to make powerful expression without having to be unbearably demonstrative.
Sure
That s why he delegated thé pianist (EIC) Dimitri
VASSILAKIS to play..his works .even in NY . (Carnegie Hall)...
Not all powerful expressions can be called music.
@@psijicassassin7166who cares
Wow.
Where can i find the complete video or videos where he plays the piano??

Precioso documento y hermosa música. Y breve.
It is more or less the equivalent for Boulez of the little pieces op. 19

Who cares!!
who cares!
i dont like this "music"... its not music, its math.. dont like pieces like this...
Schoenberg op 19 are not 12 tone pieces. They're basically atonal.
I wonder why no one has ever sampled it to make it a banger
The notations always sounded like a combination of Schoenberg and Debussy to me.
Debussy has harmony and is musical. Boulez isn't.
@@psijicassassin7166who cares
Are there recordings of him doing the other 11 pieces? That would be amazing!
Il faudrait avoir les douze pieces !!!!!!!!! quel merveilleux pianiste !!!!!!!
He edited it a lot. This version has many differences from the older one.

Entartete Musik.
Did boulez have perfect pitch?
plink plonk
as cold as his music
I find his music warm, sensuous and highly expressive.
@@Sam-zj6mw Presumably you don't have cloth ears!
Music ?
lol why did i posted that
This sounds like a toddler smacking their parents' piano.
Beurk Beurk beurk
Wrong note at 0'48 !!!
I'm positive
The notes are correct. D and E-flat.
No, you have a wrong score.
He absolutely does not play a wrong note. I have known these pieces for twenty years. I've played them myself and heard them played by many, many people. There is not a wrong note here.
Yes, there is.
My cat played it yesterday
Apparently it's much smarter than you
Bravo. Sounds like what happens when my dog or my two-year-old niece decides the play the piano.
Problemet är att även avantgardistisk musik måste svänga.
