[ChrisKogos]

WOW!

[ericrouach]

i like it!! very painful and deep,

[rdubugnon]

you are amazing, JFN ! le musicien prodige !

[kosamf]

one of the best versions of the (master)piece

...and i've heard a lot !!

I can't undrestand the negative votes

[wrigleyx]

ouais, il l'a bien, avec l'energie qu'il faut pour jouer ce morceaux.

nickel, c'est magnifique

[svartdahl]

Well played. It`s a shame that this guy doesn`t play his own music. What is it with classical musicians, only playing what`s written many years ago? Classical music is like the art of copying. It demands a lot of practicing, but let`s face it: the musicians creates nothing that`s not beeing said before. I like the music, don`t get me wrong, but it`s still "cover"-versions of Chopin and the other great composers. I`ve played Chopin, Debussy, myself - still it`s a detour to make my own music :)

[lewars1912]

@svartdahl A very strange comment. I assume that it's meant to be tongue in cheek. Musicians play great music due to it being great. Simple as that. There are lots of people today composing music.

[fesitolare]

@svartdahl The aim of the job of classical pianists (and other instru) is to keep alive musics which have been created several centuries ago, and if these works are still played now, it’s not by random but because they’re out of the commun run and deserve to not be forgotten.

If your own music is as good as these composers’s one, it will be still played in many centuries.

[Settenave]

Magistrale interprétation! Tu joues avec la même souffrance et hargne que Frédérik Chopin en songeant à son pays à feu et à sang

[robertslistening]

Obviously a good concert pianist...but...he just doesn't have Kissin's left hand power with the fingers.

[ernastine]

Cancama is absolutely right. Neuburger should use half an hour to listen to Arrau or Richter. Genius is a long patience.

[pavelkasl]

jediný , co bych mu vytknul, že si nevyhrnul rukávy, to klidně mohl :-))

[PrincessePeach35]

Virtuose, comme c'est agréable à entendre ! :) ♥

[seremerow]

在眾多音樂家面前彈奏如此耳熟能詳的曲子~

先別管其它!年度最佳勇氣獎^^

[MsYIRUMA]

briantissimo !

un regal !

[JLorz84]

hammers!

[caricama]

in too much of hurry. calm down. revolution is not about storming. it's about planning in advance and being patient.

[langlois1]

@caricama Do you really think that this piece reflects the planning stages of a revolution??

[caricama]

by "planning in advance," I meant utilizing the plan itself during the revolution. Excuse my lack of linguistic skills

[0blacone]

@caricama Well either way, this is not about a revolution, it is Chopin's anger, frustration, misery and well ... you know all those negative emotions due to the lost polish revolution against Russia. So basically your inteprentation is by far not wrong in anyway, but neither is this pianist's :)

[kimnewspring]

@0blacone ahh, I never knew the exact history of the piece and its title. Thanks for the information.

[Matteo7419]

Please...

[superjam18]

How old is he 16?

[Slava69]

Now 22

[Haeronthegreat]

Too much pedal!

[lst9162]

Truely AAAmazing! Everything's there. Can't pick out any weakness!

[ChrisWatch]

Very clean and cut approach to this piece. I noticed his phrases and rationality inside this piece was very clear and vivid. Technically speaking his execution in every corner is certainly something to be proud of. Personally, I think this sounds a lot like Ricthers. Truely he likes this etude and I'm glad he shared it with such boldness.

But, I would also like to point out, that this etude is very hard to play musically for Pianists and composers. One of the many interpretations I say.

[ChrisWatch]

To play to pianists/composers.

[CKmakifuji]

wonderful!!!!verbier s always full of suprise!and the sound effect s perfect too!!!

[XavierParis11]

Perfect !

[saiserieht]

Phony and romanticized. Just listen to the end: rham dah ra dah. Sounds like a parade.

[blievernic]

I love how he just plays it. The piece plays itself. Awesome performance and he plays it as a "whole". His Bach A Minor Prelude from the English Suite is excellent, too. He nails the Bach style and lets the music do the talking.

[abmsghost]

Nothing special.I know a bunch of Japanese ans Chinese who can do this better.Without all the extra movements.

[HiyaHolaHey]

yes, but they normally lack emotion. the chinese and the japanese normally have no emotion whasoever, just technique.

[starwarsfanboy]

I can't really be one who speak for all, but actually, Yundi Li (A Chinese Pianist) won the International Chopin Competition in 2000, I think. And most of his recordings of any music are considered to be quite emotional indeed - such as "Fantasie-Impromptu". Lang Lang, actually, has too much expression on many counts - many say that he exaggerates all his expression too much in too great contrast.

[aaa1232123]

like lang lang?

[franz1828]

superbe,bravo!!!

[alexwonton]

siiiickkk!!!

[musicxg]

I come back to listen to this piece again and again. He made me cry. I can't help posting again. Thank you , the channel owner.

[lee2710]

This is the ultimate rendition of this piece! Full of passion and yet with subtle tenderness! I have listened to it three times already and I will come back to listen! Amazing pianist, I am a JF Neuburger fan already! Thank you for posting!

[afertyus1000]

yes very passionate,he gets to grips with tone production better than most

[klingsor93]

Quoi dire? C'est parfait à tous les points de vue!

[JorPove]

Digitacion,fraseo,continuidad muy bien logrados. Transmite el mensaje del Estudio Revolucionario de manera clasica y le agrega su propia creativad para darnos una excelente ejecucion.

[lst9162]

you really shouldn't open this page, post this comment, and get so many thumbs down.

[legzandherpiano]

This sounds just like the version I have on a cd. :) Great job.

[musicxg]

Perfect! This is the version I am looking for . Bravo!!!!!!!!

Love you, Neuburger
