[ruesap13]

one of my favorite sections of the whole concerto...

[brianbernsteintv]

mm? mm? mm? mm? 

[ulsbolde89]

I will learn this movement just to hear myself play different dynamics, especially 4:09.

[nojstradamus]

all those climaxes made me ruin my pants!

[Zuchtsau]

i think phil plays much to soft! but he tries

[gerardbedecarter]

Philip's playing is wonderful!

[marginallymental]

You know what? Bolet was a dreamy player, and a fantastic teacher, and a great communicator (as he insists a musician really is), but you know what made him really great? He was a FAN. He just...GOT...it. At heart, he was still a kid being wowed by the power of music.

[RoyJoy13642]

@marginallymental Incredibly true! Especially around 7:00. Despite having just given lots of criticism, you can tell he has no bias about any student and he is entirely within the music with Smith as their melodies kept the same pace. It shows you the kind of incredible open thinking of musical geniuses.

[marginallymental]

Thank you, BofferBings, whoever you are. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

[jmealonso]

Bolet has helped me so much in learning this concerto. he just makes sense

[fortissimo25]

[condoravenue]

[IloveAlexisBledel689]

7:22 is breathtaking! I love this passage and Philip is a good pianist.

(one of rachmaninoffs typical big tunes...) ? typical "tunes" ...

[Evaldas521]

@ChrisWatch

wouldn't you know by it that it's Rachmaninoff?

[ChrisWatch]

@Evaldas521 by no means do I find Rachmaninoff "typical" in any way. nor do I consider it another one of his "typical big tunes". Frightening enough this announcer was allowed to say such a thing in Jorge Bolets class.

[princeashtonsdad]

bolet coaches this piece and you can actually hear the orchestral parts in his playing of the piece in this master class but not in the students playing until bolet suggest his masterful strong points on the students weak points

[BrucknerEnthusiast]

With orchestra, that sudden 'p' at 4:09 is one of the most unforgettable moments on Bolet's Decca/London recording - quite astonishingly beautiful with the orchestra to support it.

[dadofrob]

I was in the audience and remember it vividly 24 years later! Amazing.

[bookguy12000]

wow, that fact and ur memory are both unbelievable! truly amazing.

[AllUserNamesTaken111]

an utter block of wood.

[Sanrus]

Bolet's musicality is out of this world, and these master-classes are just divine. Thank you Jorge Bolet, and thank you for posting this amazing video.
