Always astounded by his clarity. Even in the most dense or technically difficult passages he creates beautiful music and perfectly prioritizes voices imo
He's got such a heavy sound yet it doesn't sound abrupt...I mean it doesn't come from nowhere. Instead, you can feel that passion and think that's the way it should go.
This performance makes Lang Lang's seem amatorial and ridiculous!!! I'm just speechless! Sense of humor, real "waltz beat", incredible clarity, accuracy, breathtaking technique...This is by far THE performance of this peace among the ones I know.
He has the greatest piano hands and the most impeccable finger movement - precision action every instant. Every note is considered, addressed and tossed off.
but don'tlisten to his Chopin's Etude inE minor Op25 No5 it's stylistic impertration is so bad I listended to 80 different world class pianists play it and he is on the bottom 30 of them
I agree, I heard Kissin live twice, the first time I was shocked, enamored and enchanted by his playing (he played the b flat minor intermezzo by Brahms and also a transcription of the g minor Hungarian dance no.1), the other time I was very disappointed, he played Chopin three nocturnes - f minor, g major and e major, then he played Schumann sonata f minor, then Debussy preludes and lastly Scriabin sonata no.4, it was not impressive, but rather dry and academic this time
Such délicatesse, and such beauty transmitted in each note and phrasing. It's beyond my comprehension why anyone would even put a thumbs down for this live recording. Those who put a thumbs down clearly do not play piano, and wouldn't even be able to perform like this.
Breathtakingly beautiful and joyous. Kissin's clarity of playing is unmatched, every one of the million notes is heard in its own special way. He misses nothing.
This particular piece by Strauss played by Kissin did not interest me before until I just heard him play. I must conclude that after hearing the entire performance I love his way of playing Strauss music. He really captured the character and style of Strauss waltzes.Thank you for sharing this I really appreciate it. Toronto
TRUE ARTISTRY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! What an AWESOME performance!!!!!! Such rich, beautiful music - what a command of so many touches! He brings out every line with such clarity!!!! Evgeny is such a bright shining star!!!!!! -- Diane
have recorded this in November on my digital TV. the oldest recordings still saved on the hard drive :) just amazing. a shame i can not 5 star this anymore.
Kissin, this is a very interesting music, isn't it? It is so playful and innovative. So much fun to listen to. Such a little high pitched notes are tickling at my heart.
I hate modern society in terms of music. I just wish that there could be some way that I could just transform the world back to loving classical music. This man is an absolute genious.
Emphaticltalic. He did at least seven encores. People were amazed at his Stravinsky. they went mad and he then played some lovely quiet pieces like Metner, also amazingly hard ones.
although I like a few parts in Lang Lang's own arr., I do have to admit Kissin's performance here has much more clarity, also very accurate and more staccatoy
Absolutely. Kissin is a true musician that understands the music and brings that natural beauty to us while at the same time being remarkably expressive.
Kissin is the only living pianist who reminds me of the former musical and technical greats like Lhevinne, Gilels, Arrau... . Only an artist on this level can perform light material with the same level of musical integrity as the most serious compositions. He is arguably the best overall pianist of the last and present generations!
Evgeny Kissin has been a very famous pianist for a long time and widely celebrated as amongst the best virtuoso pianists. Lang Lang's career has just launched and getting good. According to certain reviews, Lang Lang is widely criticized by elders for his facial expressions when he's performing, and the moving around too much. Lang Lang is also greatly admired by the youth for his unique expressions of music as well as excellent technique on the piano.
Utterly perfect technique. Almost inhumanly perfect. He's truly amazing.
Doesn't get any better. Kissin's clarity is mindboggling, every note heard. Fledermaus would be proud.
Always astounded by his clarity. Even in the most dense or technically difficult passages he creates beautiful music and perfectly prioritizes voices imo
Yeah his clarity is just be young human level. This version is just purely mind blowing 😢
i have to come back and watch this perfomance at least once a month to remember that it is absolutely BREATHTAKING
When I heard him in Dublin some years ago he was truly amazing. The audience wouldn't let him go. He did an enormous amount of encores.
His clarity of playing is, as always, unmatched. When it comes to the Cult of Kissin, I'm brainwashed. Truly one-of-a-kind.
He's got such a heavy sound yet it doesn't sound abrupt...I mean it doesn't come from nowhere. Instead, you can feel that passion and think that's the way it should go.

You try to seem so highbrow but you can't even use the proper punctuation or spellings. Try again. Bro.
@@kevinkraft5480 lol nor can you.
So true 😂
The pause at 4:28 encapsulates everything. EK just gets it more than anyone else. Saw him last week, the man's a genius
I liked that encapsulation saying.
He fills the gap between humanity and perfection.
Oh, what a blessing this young man!!!!!
He has the greatest piano hands and the most impeccable finger movement - precision action every instant. Every note is considered, addressed and tossed off.
Yes indeed🎶He is miracle and great👍😀👏❤️
I haven't heard this in a while. Kissin still impresses me.

Staccatooooos :D !
Just enough strength to just do them perfectly... That guy is so powerful
this is so addictive to my ears, what beautiful interpretation, kissin is one the greatest, so perfect--he never messes up 99.9% of the time!!!
Breathtakingly beautiful and joyous. Kissin's clarity of playing is unmatched, every one of the million notes is heard in its own special way. He misses nothing.
Seriously exceptional in every way

That's it, Kissin! Great!!
I think he plays it perfectly, and then some, truly exciting and memorable, like a great trip to the fair or a theme park as a kid, or even adult
I can't think of any living instrumentalist who moves my soul like Kissin does. #completeboss
I love how before he starts, he's like, if you want me to play an encore piece you have to shut up.
As I already stated, I first saw this on television and had quite the same impression as I have now.
oh what a masterpiece my heartbeat always change when i listen it.
His clarity of playing is extraordinary. You can hear every note.
OH WOW, I have never seen anything like this before. He is Awesome!!!
Virtuoso ! I love his Steinway by the way...
Its as if his hands were an extension of the timeless music that is the human spirit. Thank you Evgeny Kissin. Thank you.
This is the sort of joy that can only be expressed through music. Such passionate playing...
シュトラウスのワルツが、キーシンの弾くピアノで、こうなるなんて、奇跡としか思えないくらい凄すぎます。ぞくぞくするほど感動です。観客の人たちが、羨ましい❗有り難うございました。

I completly agree! He plays it soo good! especially at 1:50 and definetly near the end
Emphaticltalic. He did at least seven encores. People were amazed at his Stravinsky. they went mad and he then played some lovely quiet pieces like Metner, also amazingly hard ones.
although I like a few parts in Lang Lang's own arr., I do have to admit Kissin's performance here has much more clarity, also very accurate and more staccatoy

I agree✌️✌️👌👌
Искорки разлетаются из под пальцев волшебника,по всему залу.Рождён,быть пианистом.
