Unlike many generic versions I,ve heard through many years , this interpretation is quite unique in the fact that he almost seems to play the individual keys late which adds to the excitement and the passion only he can portray . Its actually quite clever and captivating .Thats just my opinion ............Fabulous
Very good performance, no rush, no hasle… good boy, reminds Claudio Arrau, well balanced, the right tempo-feeling, Beethoven was not ina hurry when writing this masterpiece (dedicated to all F1 racers performing this piece ina hurry)

.???Quit his career??? He has many recitals scheduled for 2020 which were postponed due to COVID-19. There are far more RUclipsrs who praised Yundi than disliked him. As to the ones who do, they keep saying the same things over and over again that Yundi has regressed since winning the Chopin Competition since 2000. One only has to listen to his recordings and attend his performances to know these comments are smearing ones to say the least. It is sad to hear such untrue statements spoken of toward such a great pianist of our time.
Must say he’s no longer being a pianist wholeheartedly judging by some incidents, such a shame for that talent. But I’m still grateful for what he gave us.
this is hands down the best version of the moonlight sonata around, that 3rd movement has exactly the right speed and feel, dramatic yet not drowing out any notes
+Fat Lum right?? the 3rd movement speed is like dancing naked under the storm at the edge of the earth, maybe some balls of fire falling around right????
+Andres Catunga, I'm guessing, since I'm eight that that means, it's hard. But actually, the song seems very easy. I mean, after, the very beginning, it really is just a moderate speed on the right hand and a mush of repeated key mush on the left that changes every ones in a while. But for some parts, it's easy, but not good. Like the horrible part at the end. Ughhhhhhhh.
This makes me imagine Beethoven caressing his beloved's hair. I checked out many versions of this and I think of all the great pianists I have heard play this, Yundi Li has nailed it. I think this is what Beethoven intended.
I’m in love with his piano 😍😍 the sweetness and delicate expression 😌 he is my favorite pianist since the international Frederic Chopin Piano Competition in 2000
I do believe... This is absolutely the result of incredible intense discipline, unbelievable determination and very, very hard work- for a very long time. You are absolutely magnificent, unbelievable and fantastic. Lol from Switzerland 🇨🇭

Wow, after just one hearing of Li's Moonlight sonata and I have to say this is unlike any other. I've listened to many other interpretations over and over again and he sounds special.
*Congratulations, you’ve been randomly selected to join Boba Fett on his spacecraft to traverse the visible universe to whichever location you so desire. Choose wisely!*
There was half a year when every night I listened to the part one of Li Yundi's version and full asleep. It's so peaceful and calm. I've also listened to a dozen of other musicians' versions, but this one is ever the best for me. Thank you, Yundi!
Beautiful rendition. Maybe the "mistake" people are hearing is that there is something wrong with the damper being stuck closed on C# one octave above middle C. This song is played with a lot of pedal, so every time that note comes out staccato due to the damper problem it sounds off. After the first time you can hear that he does his best to work around it.
The negative comments are hilarious! So where are you that your not up on this stage??! Cause your not good enough thats why! So keep your criticism people and watch the master doing his work! Its perfection as close as it can be to the original! If you can do better people..... then come on right up!....
Huwsbach30 and then people are calling the Japanese guy behind the pianist a “creepy guy” like how is he even creepy? Say that to a Japanese and you’ll get in a lot of trouble because for they... they would see it as racist He’s just spectating normally, he’s not even creepy, wtf?
He does look a bit like Daniel Barenboim while playing. Very expressive and nice voicing in the first movement. Clean 2nd movement. Third movement was very nicely done. Always amazed at the ability of these top level artists to memorize the music.
*Congratulations, you’ve been randomly selected to join Boba Fett on his spacecraft to traverse the visible universe to whichever location you so desire. Choose wisely!*
I enjoyed this! So elegant. I'll check out some of the other performers suggested in the comments, but every time I listen to Li I find myself quite entranced.
Curious fact: Exploration shows that Chopin`s Fantaisie-Impromptu and Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata ("Quasi una fantasia") are related. Fantaisie-Impromptu draws many of its harmonic and tonal elements from Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata, which is also in C-sharp minor, in particular, the third movement. Two measures after the melody begins, an abrupt run has the same notes, one octave higher, as the cadenza in movement 3 (Presto agitato) of that work. The climax on a six-four chord is similar in both pieces. Also, the Fantaisie-Impromptu's middle part and the second movement of the Moonlight Sonata are in D-flat major. The first and third movements are in C-sharp minor.
I know Chopin borrowed elements from Beethoven, but I hear more of remanences of F-I when I listen to Moonlight than other way around. Could be just how my brain works.
I love Yundi's interpretation of Beethoven and Chopin. His playing is much more to my liking than Chia's best known classical pianist Lang Lang, and I think it's probably as close to what these composers had in mind when their works are being performed.
We all have our preferences, the Chinese pianists all do themselves proud. I'm of the old school listing Alfred Brendel, Rudolf Serkin and Arthur Rubinstein as my Beethoven piano favorites. Others differ.
As a Chinese person, I really like Lang lang's personality and I think he's a great guy, but his playing? Not so much. Yundi is much, much better. I also happen to really like Rubinstein but not like Horowitz as much so... personal preferences I guess.
If you miss a deep understanding of the piece, hear barenboims version. He put more emotion into that, which i like more than yundis way of interpreting that piece
I think Yundi Li did a great job in terms of emotion. It shows the style of the Classical period but also the wavering feelings inside. In terms of "bravado" gestures with little meaning, maybe not so much. There's a difference between the two.
*Congratulations, you’ve been randomly selected to join Boba Fett on his spacecraft to traverse the visible universe to whichever location you so desire. Choose wisely!*
The beauty of the 1st and 2nd movements was as good as Chopin. You can hear that the 3 movement is still hesitating as a player in Beethoven's interpretation and expression. For example, how to move Arpeggio, Trill, Pedal, and Tempo. I listen to the various pianist Moonlight Sonata, but it has become a wonderful performance which increased the depth by repeatedly years old. I am expecting from now on what genius pianist Yundi Li will aim for in the future. 楽章の美しさはまるでショパンのように非常に良かったです。 ３楽章はまだベートーヴェンの解釈や表現に奏者なりの迷いがあるように聴こえます。例えばアルペジオ、トリル、ペダル、テンポの移り方です。 様々なピアニストの月光ソナタを聞いてますが、皆歳を重ねることで深みを増した素晴らしい演奏になっています。天才ピアニストユンディ・リさんが今後どんな月光を目指していくのか、これからに期待しています。

Just wonderful mousic and nicely one !
He will be back but not in china
He is back😅

何度聴いても貴方の演奏が一番素晴らしいと思う、
A lot of news report says his personality isn’t too great but I like the way he plays. He doesn’t make funny weird faces like the other piano players.
Yundi really brought out the feeling of moonlight, unbelievable.
最爱的云迪和最爱的曲子，好幸福！云迪永远是我们的骄傲，望他凤凰涅磐，走出低谷。
Very good performance, no rush, no hasle… good boy, reminds Claudio Arrau, well balanced, the right tempo-feeling, Beethoven was not ina hurry when writing this masterpiece (dedicated to all F1 racers performing this piece ina hurry)

Yes, Claudio!!!!!
yundi deserves more.
He strokes the keys like a lover. Feeling every note and embracing the melody. So gorgeous.
Ah well said!
One of the best versions
永遠支持李雲迪
*Congratulations, you’ve been randomly selected to join Boba Fett on his spacecraft to traverse the visible universe to whichever location you so desire. Choose wisely!*
I don’t get why so many hates him... it’s almost like not liking Yundi Li becomes a trend. He’s very truly talented!
I don’t think people “hate” him; it’s more about being disappointed. He has basically quit his career. He doesn’t play like this anymore.
.???Quit his career??? He has many recitals scheduled for 2020 which were postponed due to COVID-19. There are far more RUclipsrs who praised Yundi than disliked him.

But I’m still grateful for what he gave us.
PEOPLE FROM US AND EUROPE ARE RACISTS. LATIN AMERICANS LIKE YUNDI LI.
@@rickhunter8216 Apparently that's not actually the reason why they "hate" him, they're just disappointed that he sort of gave up his career.
6:05 Second movement begins
8:14 Third movement begins
Thanks u hero.
I not need the minutes of the moments, me like the song complete.
That's nice
it's not all about you

it's about feeling i think; really feeling, FEELING THE FEELING , FEELING IT WHILE YOU FEEL IT OK?
+Charles Shotwell no way you are eight.
+Renato Ferreira That could explain his poor judgement on the piece's difficulty and worth ;)
Dreamy... Moonlight Sonata.... I enjoyed it immensely. great pianist!
This makes me imagine Beethoven caressing his beloved's hair. I checked out many versions of this and I think of all the great pianists I have heard play this, Yundi Li has nailed it. I think this is what Beethoven intended.
I did not hear anyone play "Moonlight Sonata" so well before. Best I have heard so far !!
喜欢云迪和每一首作品，用灵魂演奏的艺术家
@Windows Vista Playz 藝術沒有翻車之言 沒有規則何來翻車
大きなホールとは違ってとても落ち着いたリラックス感から、気負わない自然な音楽があふれでてくる感じがします。
同じ演奏者でもその時々での弾き加減は微妙に違うものですが、最高級の月光だと思います。この素敵な花と照明の雰囲気がいいですね。素晴らしい音楽を生み出してくれたスタッフの皆様にも深く感謝いたします。ありがとうございます。
云迪！您是属于世界的！我们❤️您
云迪在日本的演奏通常都是经典，看来艺术真的是需要缘分，日本乐迷也是最爱他的、最友善的。

当年李云迪少年英姿出征肖邦国际钢琴大赛全程纪录就得益于日本制作 不得不说日本对西洋古典音乐有非常大的群众基础和很高的欣赏水平

我替他谢谢你
Three years later, still the best, Yundi. Thanks.
I like him better because the emotion he put in his playing.
yep I yundi. li better
Marybeth Langendorf Do you know another Chinese pianist Lang Lang? This guy's emotion is a joke hahahahahaha
高进 what you talking about yundi li plays with way more emotion then lang lang
Lol 高进 Making funny face expressions and massacring whats written by Chopin, Debussy, Ravel and Liszt is not my idea of EMOTION....
smh.
高进 yes I know who Lang Lang is. I think he is too crazy for me. Too Showey and over the top for me.
I never get tired listening to Yundi! Its magical.
I never get how pianists can play with their eyes closed. It's like Yundi could drift off to sleep while playing this and still play it perfectly.
ユンデイの第1楽章は最高でした目をつぶって聴くとき色んな情景描写をしながら聴くのが気持ちが夢の中に居るようですね。
Sweetly and simply played. Lovely to listen to this gentle piece.
best pianist in the world
the most poetic rendition
I do believe... This is absolutely the result of incredible intense discipline, unbelievable determination and very, very hard work- for a very long time. You are absolutely magnificent, unbelievable and fantastic. Lol from Switzerland 🇨🇭
He’s an amazing interpreter of Beethoven
日本でタイムリーに見ました。Yundiの月光、大好き！

Naturally, full of passion inside for music!

So schön Meditative 💞💕👍❣🙏🏻🥰
He understands what he's playing! He gets it
This is one of the few HD MVs of Yundi's performance. Absolutely amazing! I've watched it many times. Thorough enjoyed it! Love you, Yundi!
He memorized the piece, CLOSED HIS EYES while playing, and played it for 15 whole minutes without missing a single note. Incredible.
No he did not close his eye the whole time at all. It just the angle your at.
He pressed missed some notes actually
lol he played a few wrong notes mostly in last movement
First time I’ve listened to Yindi Li play, this was exquisite, can’t imagine why I have never heard him before, sure will in future! Australia!
Beautiful performance!
I love this man's playing. If you have not heard him play Rigoletto for piano. Please listen to it before your next breath.
Very nice, the second and third movement he truly makes his own.
so emotional I love it when musicians play an instrument like this guy
As a young girl I played Moonlight Sonata flawlessly..... my mom was so proud of me!
Now I am no classical expert who can use fancy sounding words but I love his interpretation. So tranquil...
特別喜歡第三樂章的感覺！太完美！
Your playing is full emotion and you play very clearly and so beautiful.
Still watching this in 2016... Thanks Yundi
Still watching this in 2018 .... Thanks Yundi
Still watching in 2019, and this video isn’t posted by Yundi
I'm in 2019 😂😂
Listening to this perfection in 2020
Omg 3 days later is 2021 still watching lol
An absolute joy listening ţo this. Perfection.i wish he was my neighbor with a piano on his deck. I could listen to this all day..
I truly love how passionate he is to play the piano, this a very beautiful piano piece. I was blown away!
Time stands still in the beauty of the first movement.
2024 he will be back
Wow, after just one hearing of Li's Moonlight sonata and I have to say this is unlike any other. I've listened to many other interpretations over and over again and he sounds special.

love it...great...👍👍🙏❤
my favorite beethoven's sonata!!!!
All of them are
For me #2 after the Waldstein which is pure bliss.
Totally amazing and jaw dropping especially the third movement
Wonderfull! Yundi Li is a great talent in the world!
hermosa melodís
这才是我心目中的“月光”，充满诗意，平静、带着淡淡的忧伤。
是啊
Bravo. Along the ranks of Barenboim. I appreciate the controlled attack in the 3rd movement and the Chopinesque interpretation of the 1st.
Effortless and flawless !!! Brilliant Musician this guy !!!!
Yundi's interpretation is magnificent.
so far the best version i have heard
Then you should hear Valentina Lisitsa one too , it is also a beautiful performance
That third movement! Incredible!

I personally like Daniel Brenboim's 1st movement way better..
@@yourneighbordorothy same and the third
It’s not hard to memorise the music
It’s just muscle memory
I get this sonata in a total new light after listening to this performance. Very charming pianist I must say.

This is the second best version besides Wilhelm Kempff's. The speed is not rushed over
What’s your opinion on Horowitz (both the 1946 and the 1972 version)?
Almost identical to Wilhelm. Yundi really is the best. I don't think any other existing piano player can compare.
Amazing talent and technique,one the best of our time !
Best version of Moonlight

+LeVolVik Agree. I'd still credit Evgeny Kissin for his "out of this world" 3rd movement. Check it out it is worth it.
u r so lucky that u can play this. i want to know how to play piano but sadly i dont have a piano :(
Pine apple he is not lucky. He practiced. Y that's it! Practice, years of practice!
