two things are certain in the universe:
1) death
2) people coughing during slow meditative sections of piano pieces.
Very good Rachmaninov
Dude, you gotta take those ads off haha they are killer
beautiful!

One of the best takes on Rachmaninoff's Second Sonata that I've ever heard. Unbelievable that this was taken at a competition. This playing easily stands alongside Lugansky, Hamelin, Horowitz, and Zoltan.
I forgot to say something the right hand doesn’t sound hesitant like it’s supposed to, just empty. Lugansky’s interpretation way better
@angelob.1089 what do you mean "unbelievable that this is taken in a competition"
Competition is a place where many lifetime performances are easy to come by, because the artist is still young, guided by many professors who have a pre-existing vision of the work and understand the work like its author. In addition, competition is a place of fierce competition to win a career that only a few of the best pianists are honored to receive, so young pianists will focus everything they have on it... later in their pianist career, it is easy to get lost because of the loss of guidance from professors, their vision is now easily limited by the unusual and difficult to integrate lifestyle of being a pianist born and raised as a bookworm, hold the piano everytime.
Also suggest some goat performance that come from competition:
Rafal Blechacz Chopin scherzo no4 - goat
Rafal Blechacz Chopin piano concerto no1 - goat
Yunchan Lim Rach3 - goat
Gyehee Kim Tchaikovsky Valse-Scherzo - goat
and a lot more
Lol RUclips is truly an amazing place
It is great, but you can't compare much to Horowitz so simply.
I disagree

Sergei Rachmaninov (1873-1943)
Sonata in B-flat Minor, Op. 36 No. 2 - Revised (1931)
0:06 - I. Allegro agitato
8:27 - II. Non allegro
14:22 - III. Allegro molto
THIS IS THE ABSOLUTE SUBLIME RACHMANINOFF PERFORMANCE OF THIS SONATA. ONCE YOU START LISTENING YOU CANNOT STOP. IT HAS EVERYTHING POSSIBLE. AND THE INNER VOICES ! WOW.

Yekwon’s Rachmaninoff is the best!
Of living pianists, I concur (he's tied with Martha Argerich). This gentleman reminds me of the late great Alexis Weissenberg - his playing is very conceptual, he disassembles and recomposes this sonata as though Scriabin wrote it. Brilliant, fiery performance!
More colorful beautiful piano sound than Yekwon Sunwoo and Argerich and Weisenberg=Wilhelm Kempff Emil Gilels Radu Lupu Artur Rubinstein Vladimir Ashkenazy Grigory Sokolov! More genius=Sviatoslav Richter Solomon Cutner Grigory Sokolov Maurizio Pollini Stanislav Bunin! More powerful louder than these=Mikhail Pletnev(Prokofiev piano concerto no 1 by Pletnev!) The Second Loudest was Lazar Berman!
Great performance and wonderful sound on the piano. This is a gold medal performance.
Thank you for this performance especially but also for all the recently published past performances and tributes made by laureates. Now I can wait happily for June 2-18 of 2022!

10:55 is absolutely heart wrenching
segundos después hay unos errores ene la ejecución bro... =/
I've been searching for this. The clearest melody pronunciation of any interpretation I've heard.
Great Yekwon!!
머리 속이 하얘짐.. 처음부터.. 너무 좋다.. 이런 느낌 오랫만에 느낀다 😭 I‘m fully blown away to the moon~ it’s been a while to have this kind of .. satisfaction.
Amazing for a live performance
it was really very beautiful and he really drew out the melodic line from the rich texture, there some really beautiful moments around 14.30, of course it gets compaired to Horowitz, but that unfair as there is only one Horowitz, this was a very brave choice and for such a young man the pathos and trajedy was there in spades, brilliant
Not magic... 😢

His tone is beautiful and breathtatking.
2nd best finale to this piece i have heard, second only to kocsis
Aussi grand et distingué que Seong Jin Cho, bravo!

GOOD!!! BRAVO!!!

This guy is making a name for himself. He outshines other emerging pianists, notably those who ‘think’ they are great. Yekwon plays with amazing technical brilliance and passion. Bravo 👏
. I'll name one, myself: Yuncham Lim, the piano playing chameleon. Highly, highly overrated. Will be forgotten within a decade.
This pianist here is the genuine article, but without the legion of hype-brainwashed acolytes.
@@robertjones447why?
@@오니-n6mAll show and no dough. Calculated performance, designed to wow, but not coming from the heart.
@@robertjones447 when someone’s extremely popular, there’s always a reason. in this case, it’s just that performances were amazing. His Rach 3 is much better than Yekwon Sunwoo’s to be honest. Both technically and musically.
@@6894qboth are soulless
Excellent performance. Congratulations!
Amazing. ❤️👌
Best of Best❤
The best!!!

This is a mature, fully-formed, sui generis interpretation. Brings out the Scriabin influence and belongs in the same company as Alexis Weissenberg and Zoltan Kocsis, though never stoops to imitate either.
Beautiful. Thanks for the tip, Robert. He really is excellent and will only get better. Already interpretively miles ahead of some others I could mention. His Rach PC3 from this competition also is excellent.
@@leestamm3187 You're welcome! I was unaware he also had the Third in his repertoire. Thank you as well for the tip!
I remember when I was a teenager in the 1970s and Rachmaninoff's Third was still the best-kept secret in classical music. I mean, people listened to it, but the 2nd Concerto and the Paganini Rhapsody were still much more popular. Now, the 4th holds best-kept secret status.
@@robertjones447 For 2 hours of listening pleasure, put "yekwon sunwoo beethovena recital" in the RUclips search. (Be sure to include the "a" at the end of beethoven.)
Absolutely brilliant and exceptional interpretation!
8:28 10:35
Also awesome to hear the guy breathe through his emotions
Spellbinding performance !
The performance is technically very solid, but not close to what Horowitz produced. The passage starting at 10:45 needs more passion. The sonata as a whole is about creating the sense of lack of emotional control while playing the music beautifully.
why are you comparing, just enjoy his performance. don't base your criticism off the playing of another pianist.
@leenakaewnat7494 I guess you are another smart-a* with le grand savoir-faire of a loud mouth.
Horowitz 68; Cliburn Moscow. This isn't even on the list, sorry.
The only good recording of this!
