@@tubsy.I respect your opinion but for me I think it is very impressive since he is able to play it so fast yet so accurately. 8 year violinist here btw, so I do have some musical knowledge.
@@MangoGalaxyYT No, I agree. It's definitely insanely impressive. But he's not a musician, he's a showman. He'll completely ruin the sound of the piece to show off his technical skills.
I see it that many people let the showman effect overshadow that this man can really play. And it's not like he's doing everything wrongly. He has an unbelievable range of control and sensitivity on the keys and he does all this while having fun because he genuinely is having fun because he's just that damn good. This is also why he's so good at selling the instrument and makes it look like he's showing off when he's just vibing to the music. Deservedly too. Who wouldn't vibe to music played by tue gods themselves
@@cosmic_gate476 He's a great pianist and far better than me but I think he does not deserve as much success. He is on the verge of orgasm at every note and has a hand position to fart his wrist (that’s what happened...)
Seriously? Be honest now -the whole thing or just the first bit? Can you play it with your eyes closed or do you have to read the music and keep checking where the black and white thingies are?
I'm not necessarily a fan of Lang Langs la campanella, but I do think the interpretation is really interesting. From the two speed jump in the long bar of repeated note, to the different cadence of the repeated octaves in the build up to the coda, it's a very fresh take and one no other pianist really does.
@@donjean6590eh, each prolific pianist has their own character if you listen closely. I prefer a clever rubato over speed, personally, but can recognize and appreciate the myriad of interpretations.
Yeah Lang Lang is playing the changed version of the original piece. If you want to listen to what it originally way search for "Grande Fantaisie di Bravura sur La Clochette de Paganini S.420".
Personally, I think this is one of the best interpretations of La Campanella. This is exactly how I think Liszt would play it. Liszt was crazy about music and this super fast tempo is totally fitting. A few mistakes here and there don't matter, Lang Lang plays passionately and is very skilled.
@@鶴-j5i He is still challenging an opinion. Doesn't matter if he explained his reasoning. You're getting all offended on behalf of the OP and its making you look ignorant. People are allowed to disagree and they don't have to be polite or verbose about it.
I dont understand why people attacking him because of just one stage perform, when you play piano controling emotions is so hard maybe that day he lost his focus at the end of the piece, you cant know that, people got 0 empathy and knowledge, they just criticise everything like they are master of everything, I’m sure %90 of these bullsh*t comments cannot even play first page of this piece
I don’t know why others are attacking him, but I can say this. There is no denying that he is an extremely passionate person with a great feel for music and through his popularity he has done more work for bringing classical music to a younger audience than plenty of older musicians combined. The world and culture in general owes him a debt for this. But for all of his virtuosity, I just do not believe he has a beautiful sound, and this has nothing whatsoever to do with technical ability or one’s ability to play the first page. I can’t tell you how many pianists I have heard in concert from Olga Kern to Andrei Gavrilov, Lugansky, Schiff, Axe, Trifonov, Denk, Dinnerstien, etc… I have heard Russians, Frenchman, Chinese, Brits, Americans, and really men and women of all races and ages. All of them had great technical skills. So what separates them? Their sound. It’s hard to explain it, but it is something that separates great musicians from the merely technically proficient for all instruments, including mine which is the violin. For pianists, even though they are just touching keys, they too have “the sound” and in the simplest of terms, it is a texture. It is a richness, and a warmth. For me, while the passion appears on Lang Lang’s face, I just don’t hear it from the piano. Instead, I hear him banging on those keys, and out comes something hollow and empty. Grandiose, magnificent, but empty. Maybe some people in the comments are attacking him because they think it’s fashionable, but as a musician and as a long-time concert attendee, this is my take and hopefully it’s respectful and not an attack. I hope I didn’t offend you with this.
@@Tennisisreallyfun Hm. It's hard to argue with opinions. As for me, I see incredible emotion through the music itself but if you don't feel it, there's no way anyone can prove it to you. I appreciate your response being respectful though.
@@kabuky1256But I do feel the emotion! Every note Lang Lang plays is infused with emotion! This is why he is so popular, because he really “feels” the music. And as a musician myself, I appreciated that he is someone who loves his craft to such a degree. But when it comes to his sound, and just his sound (emotions and feeling aside) it’s incredibly harsh to my ears. Have you ever heard of the pianist Alexander Malofeev? I just attended one of his concerts in Orange County recently. Now that is a pianist!!! He too “feels” the music with subtle expressions (that are still clearly visible) and a profound emotional connection to the music. But his sound!!! Oh, his sound, it’s so rich and warm and textured. This is what I’m talking about! Go and see him in concert (the videos don’t do him justice, amazing though they are) and you’ll see what I mean.
Liszt stopped performing in concert three years before La Campanella was published so it’s unlikely he played this to his adoring fans across Europe at the height of his ‘rock star’ game.
It's really out of this world! I seem to hear this piece for the first time, as it sounds really different, wth a different vibration and personality. Indeed it's from the unique lang Lang!
I like the way Lang Lang reminds us that the piano is a percussive instrument. I think that may be the reason he is not everyone's favoured choice - we are too used to a surfeit of romanticism, in interpretation as well as over exposure on the concert platform.
@@fredericfrancoischopin6971Ah, well, you've got to admit that in comparison with Bach or Mozart, Liszt himself is mediocre, so that's quite appropriate!
@@rosemaryallen2128No, Why would I compare the these composers with liszt right now? This is out of the subject. I meant, I criticize such a bland, dry and mechanical playing of very flamboyant concert piece by a romantic titan Liszt. That is mediocre, not the composer.
@@rosemaryallen2128 It is not the composer that is mediocre, it is the pianist. Blame the pianist, not the composer. And this performance is very bad, which is a shame. The reason why Liszt tends to be overlooked a lot is because there are so many bad performances of his pieces. Many pianists like Lang Lang play his pieces with no emotion, bland, dry, boring, messy, and very stupid. New listeners come to these videos, and listen to these bad performances and go "oh this sucks, the composer is bad", even though it is the pianist that played it badly... I was like this too, until I explored other pianists, and saw how good Liszt was as a composer and how stupid my thinking was. Like I said, it is not the composer, it is the pianist that has played it badly. If you want to see real La Campanella, listen to how Yundi Li, Evgeny Kissin, or Cziffra plays it. Not this garbage performance. It is not appropriate for this piece!!

I really like how this man plays the piano, with so many impetu. He feels the unbelievable greatness of the melody and the meaning of it. Congrats to this man.
🙃 he he - just excellent performance 🌷 Exacta Mundo the way it should be played! Myyyy goodness! He just rocked my Holy knight! He is deep into his artist expression & skill I love it!

Looks like he may be hitting a lot of wrong notes but because his hand shape is in the correct position and it is happening so fast and in rhythm it is okay and fits.
Yeah I think the end is just too fast, the left hand is a bit messy there, but it doesn't really bother me. Kissin's is my favourite performance and that's even messier.
Bravo 👏👏👏 Lang Lang. I wish l can play La Campanella as spectacular as you did. My brilliant Julliard School professor said l do play it with more passion. Princess Cynthia Maria Victoria 🌹 ❤️❤️❤️ 🌹

Racist
@@BenLu543 true
Lots of noise towards the end
@danielandjasmine2281 how does fireworks compare to racism???
A lot of Liszt pieces were deemed unplayable, a lot never made it into common concert repertoire
So, Liszt was a bit of a classical shredder.
