[chopin2211]

LOOK AT HIS HANDS! MAGNIFICENT POSTURE, 18 YEARS OLD!

[marsza11jm]

I totally argee, "Chopin is everything"

[freeqwerqwer]

zimmerman plays with somewhat maudlin exageration and doesn't have a native, a polish feel to his playing despite he is a pollack.

[tierzuchtZentral]

I always thought I don't believe in genius, but I'm not sure now

[tierzuchtZentral]

Dear Krystian, I will never want to hear someone else playing again... It could never be the same. I am so glad I found you.

[Czarnadrania]

Jakie cudowne wspomnienia! Byłam tam wtedy jako 13 letnia dziewczynka. Radość nie do opisania :)

[apluspianist]

Great Zimerman!

[iguarni]

1:48 a young genius is playing!

[MrALCOTTS]

CHE MERAVIGLIA, CHE NOSTALGIA...MA PERCHE' E' CAMBIATO TUTTO, PERCHE'!

[iguarni]

@MrALCOTTS hai così ragione!!! Purtroppo questi geni immortali non ci sono più. Un genio come Beethoven o Chopin sono patrimoni del genere umano e non dei singoli paesi che hanno dato loro i natali.

[New4785689]

What is he saying at 0:50 ?

[pioter2a]

@New4785689 Chopin is everything... This is life in all its forms

[qdsfd]

@New4785689 he says "Chopin is simply...everything. It's life. With all it's facets."

[diogatus]

but I can't find that music... What should I put in the search of the music???

[pioter2a]

@diogatus watch?v=VhwMYC51FW8#t=05m54s

[diogatus]

[pioter2a]

[Jogab37]

@diogatus First movement of Chopin's Concerto #1

[New4785689]

2:25 the right hand fingering...

[DzikenS94]

Mam dziwne uczucie, ponieważ na 1:55 widzę młodego Paderewskiego, który dyryguje orkiestrze! Oj, chciałoby się...

[sousique]

@DzikenS94 to mlody Jerzy Maksymiuk:)

[ragionierfantocci]

Mi fa pensare alla reincarnazione di Chopin!!!

[dzeljpiano]

This makes me so happy. It´ s so emotional and I am so proud of him :)

[s900203]

God, his playing is so exquisite...

[philipsantoso]

Unbelievable

[philipsantoso]

Unbelievable.

[miliona1re]

Greatest interpreter of Chopin ever

[Eyesxlikexaxtarget]

What Chopin song is he playing at the end? It looks insanely hard!

[TwilightYundili]

@Eyesxlikexaxtarget It's Chopin's Piano Concerto No. 1 :] You know, in 2000 I think, Yundi Li also played this concerto during the 14th International Chopin Competition.

[ibk1980]

one of the finest Chopin interpret of all time!

[iguarni]

@ibk1980 FOR SURE!!!!

[alexlliszt]

omg

[MelodyMuse92]

This little clip makes me ridiculously happy. Such joy! Thank you for sharing it with us! :)

[ChopinLiszt150]

Waltz op.34 no.1 anc Piano Concerto no.1.

[miliona1re]

Greatest Chopin interpreter ever

[4785689]

wwhat is he playing?

[afertyus1000]

@4785689 err piano?

[wonphi]

Mr. Zimerman in my opinion is one of the greatest Chopin interpreters ever. The fact that he grew up in a Piano building family and has the knowledge and understanding of the art of Piano (both creating and playing) really shows and creates an unparalleled performer.

[nico22059]

@wonphi the only thing the piano manufacturer and Krystian share is his surname. They aren´t related in any way :p

[pioter2a]

@nico22059

Yes! Zimerman's father worked in ironworks

[pmsmorga]

wspaniały materiał!! czy można prosić o więcej?? najlepiej cały recital Zimermana z Konkursu :)

[ChopinLiszt150]

This is amazing!!! How I can watch the whole concerto?
