Rachmaninov, Sonata No.1 in D Minor, Op.28
Guillaume Sigier (piano)
Recorded at Salle Colonne.
Arpeggio Films / J. Hanck Production
Played with superb skill and soulfullness.
Fantastic interpretation. Criminally underrated.
Лучшее ,прекрасное исполнение этой сонаты!Думающий ,чуткий пианист!
Gargantuan opus only a select few artists including this one can let alone the immense difficulty give this masterpiece the musicality it so richly deserves, bravo G.S. Possibly this sonata pushes the boundaries of human creativity, as well the pianists who can perform this unworldly creation.
The music of Rachmaninov has enriched my life beyond imagination.....
This is one of the best piano works I've heard in a long while. I think this sonata is better than Rachmaninoff's famous piano concertos. The pianist is also extraordinarily talented, and really brings out the melodies and "voices" with superb clarity.
BRAVO!!!!!!
Wow!
It's outstanding for me how the harmonic phrasing is startlingly brilliant.
Poise. Mood. Passion. Emotional maturity. Integrity. Pastorality. Beauty.
bravo bravo bravo. quelle classe vous êtes un artiste admirable. merci
Tout simplement magnifique ! en dehors des radars du business, quel bonheur
Красивое исполнение, захватывающее, великолепное!!! ❤❤❤
Quel vertige......et quelle sensibilité. Merveilleuse interprétation.
wow wow ... been watching this since mr. Berezovsky has introduced this fully and this is just another wow! shoud out everyone who love this sonata and think this is the best work by Rachmaninov and now are watching speechless as I do ... ohh thank you!
Man are you joking with us ... wow the technique. Chapeau.
0:06 - Allegro moderato
15:35 - Lento
24:51 - Allegro molto
In my opinion, one of the finest recordings of this criminally underrated and underplayed Rachmaninoff piece! Especially that part from 31:39 - 31:45. Simply epic!!!
Superb! This is quite a difficult work to make comprehensible, and this pianist is simply seductive.
Ravishing musician.
Bravo.
One of the hardest peices in the piano literature.
Totally agree in the hands of an average pianist this piece becomes unrecognizable, but in the hands of a genius- you will hear melodic lines from every direction, my favourite recording is Boris Beresovsky, Only problem is that he makes it sound so easy.
A fascinating and persuasive performance by an interpreter of considerable subtlety and intelligence, in the service of a criminally neglected masterpiece whose complex motivic structure entirely escapes most pianists (and most audiences.) It is clear that M. Sigier has brooded at great length on this deep and moving work, and arrived at his own distinctive views on how best to reveal its essence, for this is no mere variation on some other well-known artist's performance, but an essentially new and insightful reading that succeeds brilliantly despite its various technical imperfections. I would be thrilled to purchase M. Sigier's recording of this sonata, should he ever undertake to produce one, for I strongly suspect that, in the controlled conditions of a recording studio, and with the benefit of multiple takes, and shrewd, sensitive editing, he and his engineers would ultimately produce a document not only of great beauty, but of lasting historical significance, and perhaps even transcend the extraordinarily high standards set by the superb recordings of Ogdon and of Chochieva. Bravo, M. Sigier! You have the admiration and gratitude of a devoted admirer of great pianists, and of this tremendous sonata.
I concur with this very insightful and carefully objective analysis. The only caveat I would have is that an overly technical editing of a full performance might result in an unrealistic if brilliant “product”. There’s something even more brilliant about a performance ab initio ad finem which embraces in its sweeping unity even the technical flaws.
This Sonata is not " criminally" neglected at all. Plenty of world class pianists perform it and have recorded it. Berezowsky, Fiorentino, Valentina, Thiollier, Robert Groslot, Pletnev Fiorentino etc.etc. And the "complex motivic structure" does not escape pianists or educated audiences at all., perhaps only in your bigoted mind.
@@thepianocornertpc It was composed in the same year as Gaspard de la Nuit (and is approximately as virtuosic.) Which work has been recorded more often?
@@MathPrinceps This is an irrelevant comparison and a bad analogy.
What a marvel of evolution the mind is, that it should compose, learn and play from memory such things.
Breathtaking
Really great recording, one of my favorites so far
Great sonata, moving interpretation. Thanks.
This is the best rec I’ve heard. The balance between “the forest and the trees” is really impressive; every moment is compelling on its own but you always sense its place in the broader story. Not a single moment seems out of place, gratuitous, underdone etc., as if every single note has received painstaking analysis. Technically flawless, to boot. And the intensity/excitement of the piece is never lost (whereas other pianists seem to go for either depth or excitement, rarely achieving both).
This pianist is low on views; I hope he keeps up the good work cause he seems like a true artist.
I agree, was quite impressed by M Sigler's artistry, having heard many virtuosos on this difficult sonata. Had to search for him, don't know his work but will now.
THANK YOU VERY, VERY MUCH !!!
Rachmaninoff's finest work in my opinion
I wonder whether it, or his 3rd concerto, are the more difficult piece.
@@hdesertratdefinitely the concerto, but this is the harder of the 2 sonatas, i find it a lot less comfortable than the 2nd. all the concertos are more difficult than the sonatas
Magnifique
Just looked up Guillaume Sigier, had surname wrong. Most remarkable pianist I've heard and there are many!
I think this is one of the best classical music recordings/performances of our time! Everything about it is just flawless and perfect to this sonata (: Bravo!!
What a god for playing this difficult sonata!
It’s gonna be a long time but I want to learn both Rachmaninoff’s sonatas one day…
Fabulous performance! The final movement is really thrilling . . .
Now my favorite pianist
Wow!!!! That's all I can say. Absolute master of an absolutely fantastic sonata. Thank you for posting.
Interprétation d'intense profondeur et inspirée bravo!
Easily the best video recording I've seen and easily top 2 for recordings of it in general. Phenomenal to say the least
played very well
While Sigier's playing was absolutely phenomenal, I feel like must praise the camerawork and lighting in this video.
I don't even know how many different recordings of this work I've listened to and while they were all very good, I always thought there was something missing in each of them. I always wished the pianist was doing something slightly different whether it be a change in tempo, phrasing, volume, etc. here or there. When I first heard this recording, it blew me away. It is probably the closest I think anyone has come to perfection with this work.
Couldn’t agree more. How is the view count so low?! It’s one of the best recordings I’ve heard; of any piece
@@simmo5697 Jan. 2023: I just listened to this Sonata by Alexander Malofeev on YT (on a Yamaha) and I highly respect Alex's magical fingers, unbelievable talent and his lovely personality when I met him in Amsterdam Oct. 1 st. 2022, I find this recording by Arpeggio Films has a warmer sound. Mr. Sigier is doing a brilliant 'job' here with his magical fingers ! 😊🌷
Absolutely blown away by M Sigler on this difficult sonata! Agree with others, many virtuosos have something out of place while certainly playing well, but this man has played the difficult sonata at an A plus, just amazing pianist!
TNCR approves your recording. Well done!
Great shape! Good job!
What was Rachmaninoff thinking when he composed such a breathtaking Sonata? Beautifully played too by Mr. Sigier and Alexander Malofeev (22yrs) does it just as beautifully. 🌷🌷🌷
Top sonata and performance ever
Divine 🌟👏👏
Awesooooome!
11:15 to thoes who think classical is boring
Masterly!
I am curious to know what some of the listeners to Sigier's interpretation think about Lugansky's?
Rachmaninoff's wife: "I'll leave my slippers under his bed tonight."
Thanks dude I was having a bad day but this made me go feed the chickens
@@alexanderh9569 I'm not sure I totally get you meaning, but I'm glad to have helped.
Walter White plays Rachmaninoff
KKKKKKKKKKKKKKK
LOL
LMAO!
hahaha 😂
Let him cook bro
rarely have I heard such perfect "touch" control on a keyboard. Awfully slow performance though, lots of detail, but too many stops and starts, hard to hold such an immense musical structure together at this relaxed tempo. Rach actually performed this sonata more often during his 1920's-30's recitals than the (now, more popular) 2nd Sonata; it'd be interesting to hear how fast he played it; I'm betting quite a bit more up-tempo than this.
I think the tempo fluctuates so much in the first mov.. couldn’t leave myself to the music and feel the narrative… felt like ivo pogorelich playing rach
However i loved the ferocity of the 3rd movement very much! Still, this only shows guillaume a true artist! He has the courage to try new ways of looking at a standard!!
8:02, 8:30
8:30 is metal!
@@MetalClassicalRocks yep! id highly recommend rodriguez's version of the climax too, which i think is the best rendition currently.
Now waiting when Jesse Pinkman will play 2d Rach Sonata...
17:20
Congratulations to all the viewers, you know the difference between music and some new stupid dup dup bullshit
the music which composed by several years work of a genius and a music that almost everybody can make in several minutes
25:15 26:03
ну вот такие теперь пошли пианисты - все по чуть чуть. чуть чуть фразировка, чуть чуть прикосновение, чуть чуть динамика. ничего по настоящему сделанного великолепно.
Só acho que exagerou no Rubato na introdução
ayo mr white what are you doing here
beside ALEXANDER MALOFEEV a passable interpretation....
