[SkellyLeigh]

Wooow

[djvandrake]

Fantastic! The best part of this video is she looks like she's having a great time. :-)

[MrIvanpolik]

and i hope that piano will last some time

[PatrickAnibalDill]

O.O

[mylove0922]

와 ㅋㅋ잘치네요

[TheBarbaciano]

Glenn Gould + Martha Argerich + Gwyneth Paltrow = Valentina Lisitsa

[moomoo8100]

thumbs up for the sort of resemblance to gweneth paltrow ;)

[mylifeismusic93]

Whatever you search on youtube for piano, Valentina Lisitsa is there to play it T________T *jealous*

[marianomanto]

woooooooooooooooow

[pianolicious134]

please tell me it took her more than a week to play it like she just did 0.0

[bagm49]

O.O WOW

[pianolicious134]

i hope that piano's 18....

[RuggeroSS]

it is so lovely to see how she enjoys playing piano :)

[TheDreamslayers]

Your facial expressions show us how music should be played : with feelings.

[EducationLover]

@TheDreamslayers With you!

[TheMrSteinway]

This is how beethoven would have played it. 

[mrpianist]

How impressive!!  She makes all the Beethoven sonatas sound fresh and new, as if they were written today. I am wondering when her complete Beethoven sonata set will be ready, as I cannot wait to obtain a copy.

[imaginarylies]

She makes it look soo easy! Loved her performance!!

[johnburtonbalnis]

Why , in the codetta, does she play the culminating phrase twice in the same range with the left hand? It should be played in the left hand at measure 96 and then again an octave lower at measure 100, but she plays them both at the same octave. curious>?

[GeneralSnatch]

@johnburtonbalnis not in the least bit curious.

[wetuadjlv]

@johnburtonbalnis Good ear! I don't think it was a mistake on her part; it's most likely an interpretive decision. I'm studying this sonata now, and the best guess I can give is that she kept it down in that range because she wanted a louder dynamic. To me, that left hand passage is a little weak when played in the correct octave. Of course, we have a different piano than Beethoven, and Lisita has a different interpretation as well. I'm curious too!

[Inlandings]

Absolutely wonderful in every sense of the word. Amazing, beautiful  - wow!

[whiteiron2006]

Bravo!!! Valentina!!!



[mfiadeiro]

I can't express enough how I have enjoyed this interpretation.

Bravo Valentina!

[johnchiwilson]

Absolutely wonderful!!! So uplifting, Bravo!

I found myself mesmerised by the finger movement!

[sam24167]

wonderful, great work Valentina, everything I have watched you perform is a masterpiece of the greatest magnatude Great interpitation and performance.

[toutouzim007]

Goog fingers, bad sound...

[kriteon]

@toutouzim007 NO!!

[elgroncheR]

she died last year?? so a ghost came to play in mexico, i saw her about a month ago..

[kriteon]

@elgroncheR lol

[RenanGarciaMoura]

I love your face on 3:12! haha

[30inventionman]

Sad to see her go, she was good piano player. :(

[cafemocha2114]

Wow! Bravo!!

[meredith218461]

It has to said this young womans keyboard dexterity is truly astounding. As far as this performance goes however, I find her tempo too hectic even for this ebullient mvt. For me Ingrid Fliter is more subtle and musically attuned to this sonata.

[30inventionman]

she died last year

[MusicClassical1]

@30inventionman Really?? Care to explain? :)

[Desireyso58]

Bravo! Valentina. Cada día lo haces mejor. Dónde vas a parar. Quê Don.

[l3lackMambal]

4 people hit dislike by mistake. while 56,470 people were so mind-blown they forgot to click like.

[pinzam]

it isn't Beethoven, but Moszkowski .....sorry. Sge's Good piano player, excellent performance .... but .... this piece isn't for Valentina.

[Litawyn]

@pinzam It IS Beethoven, just as labeled. Where in the hell did you get Moszkowski?

[MrStrav81]

@pinzam

This performance is way better than her Hammerklavier (from a musician's perspective). And I don't think she plays this like Moszkowski at all. This feels right to me.

[heidelbeermacaron]

you are a great team! ♥

[kriteon]

goddmanit i can't stop watching it she's such a genius

[ricvonzipper]

Brava:) From one who doesn't play but appreciates greatly the divinely inspired compositions of Beethoven and the wonderfully talented interpretations of those like you who bring us to the feet of God.

[kriteon]

this movement is absolutely wonderful

[Juliebels]

I love how visually you seem so delighted by the music of this piece. It's delightful to watch!! I LOVE your playing!! Please keep posting videos! As a pianist, you inspire me! :)

[doomless198]

love your spirit, not as like all asians who play mechanically

[zzhhaannggddii]

@doomless198 lol please replace "all" with "some"

[Vesivian]

@doomless198 you stupid

[dgillettnj]

Glenn Gould plays this movement faster (no big surprise). Valentina's tempo brings out the playfulness -- there's nothing worse than solemn Beethoven. Remember he wrote these sonatas to showcase his pianistic abilities when he was breaking into the Vienese music world. They need to be showy and exciting. If you try to bring the same gravity to these early pieces that he has in his later works, you kill the spirit that animated them.

[hotbebimauz]

damn this is sooo depressing how can you play this sooo fast!! its unbelievable, im fighting with this piece its soo difficult and i just can't do it in this tempo :(:(

[txcobra96]

AMAZING!!! favorite youtube video. Thank you. :]

[jonolikesbuster]

Supremely delightful!

[SertavisSaviPianist]

Well, of course this is fast, its "Presto" that is what Beethoven wanted people. ><

[sjolson68]

In my experience, it's very easy to be "territorial" with another interpretation regardless of the differences (dynamics, tempi, rubato). What I'd like everyone to try and do is purely listen to it for what it is and not have your bias obscure what that particular artist is trying to convey.

Additionally, just because n number of others played it a particular way doesn't make it right or wrong - hence the term interpretation.

[hotbebimauz]

too fast? no, this is the proper tempo for this movement! tempo is marked as presto.

[dripglass]

A bit fast in some places, sure.. but she's such a good player I wouldn't complain

[edwardpiercy]

@ Prestothemusic. I would highly suggest that you listen to the piece multiple times. Time has taught me that there is always a logic behind what she does. :)

[Prestothemusic]

Very lively, buy may I suggest that you slow the song down Lisitsa? I think you are playing the song too fast. Remember, tempos back in the 1800's are different from today's speed.

Beethoven would probably not be pleased to see you speed up his sonata this fast. XD

[debrucey]

@Prestothemusic He would not be pleased to hear you refer to it as a song.

[rockdrumr429]

@Prestothemusic Times change. The idea is to play the music and have the same effect that it originally had, and in the age the music was written, it may have been just slightly slower, but to those audiences, it would have seemed extremely fast; so to sound extremely fast in OUR age, it may be necessary to prest it up just a bit, eh?

[Jannothy]

We is she always playing too fast??

[Happygnomeland]

I am currently memorizing this sonata to play for a recital. My piano teacher has always been warning me about not PLAYING THIS SONG TOO FAST. I'm not sure what Beethoven would say if he listened to this interpretation and the tempo..................(really sorry to be blunt) Other than that, very fluent and lively!

[pianovirtuoso1000]

Very impressed!

[nevandan]

Honestly I don't like her playing in this sheet but it is only my opinion. I prefer Koblar in this Sonata.

[SertavisSaviPianist]

@nevandan Ha, yes you are VERY right about that :D

[hohohee1]

prefer KOBLEYS version more

[soulechene]

Toujours une interprétation magnifique de la part de Valentina Lisitsa, il y a toujours un plus dans sa façon de jouer par rapport à la plupart des autres interprétations pourtant souvent excellentes. A quand l'intégrale des sonates de Beethoven?

[hohohee1]

lookin ugly ... though you were pretty but you look like a MAN !!!!!!!!!!!!

[TwilightPsychopath]

I know each musician has their own speed, but this....this is just WAY too fast. I can't help but imagine beethoven rolling his eyes and thinking *good grief, what was I thinking, writing presto down*. XD

[mallefries]

@TwilightPsychopath You like Irena Kobler more?

[hohohee1]

@mallefries prefer Koblers version moreee this is not right tempo or anything

[Happygnomeland]

@TwilightPsychopath Agree!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[brizerbrizer]

i enjoy watching your hands lol 

[xVeroniqueX]

wonderful..

[jielunfan92]

I like your precise interpretation very much.

Thumbs up from Japan

[bluecape2001]

I like it--have to say--definitely fastest I've heard it played. Lisitsa has so much virtuosity.

[OldHorse1000]

Stunning, Thank You

[jsmrg]

Time and time again, your interpretations are beautiful, and I can also feel your enjoyment. For a moment I felt as if Beethoven himself was playing it, back then. Wow.

[Mariska6661]

WOW...

[Minanto91]

What Beethoven sonatas know? addition to 7,14,23 and 29

[hotbebimauz]

valentina, i have to say it again, you play this sonata so beautifully!! your interpretation of this sonata is the best ive ever heard. finally someone who plays the first movement with energy, passion and in the proper tempo. its so engaging to watch!!

[wooshywoo]

HUGELY enjoyable - warmest thanks for playingand posting this. I look forward to your complete recording of the Beethoven sonatas.

[hotbebimauz]

[gouloum2222]

[fluterampal]

[MusicClassical1]

[G0NZAL0666]

[anupaum]

Watching you enjoy this music is almost as fun as listening! Beethoven was a genius, and we are blessed by the opportunity to hear you interpret his work for us!

:)

[1950Kati]

[MusicClassical1]

I clicked on the "Like" button and it said 2 Thumbs Down!! How can 2 people not like this incredible performance????

[mauriciostarosta]

Loved this performance! Completely different of my own, but amazingly convincing. Interesting what you do in the passagem between bars 97 and 101. Thanks for posting!

[AlmaSchiwago]

like a machine :-(

[Lammero]

@AlmaSchiwago

The hell you're talking about...

Machines can't feel any pleasure and she obviously enjoys what she does =)

[barrios5caprice]

M.A.R.A.V.I.L.H.O

bravo bravo bravo

[G0NZAL0666]

thanks god por ucranian pianists u_u

[ChibiSF]

I had the great pleasure of seeing her perform live on the 24th of August in NYC. This was the first piece she played. Words cannot describe the performance, so I'll go with a made up one. As the fake James Lipton would say, "Scrumtrulescent."

[timpanitimptim]

Listening to Valentina has helped me appreciate her talent more and more.

[SteinwayMan13]

We have a new master of Beethoven!!! Bravo!! Great work!!

[mikejr41387]

valentina, your beethoven sounds GREAT!

[richclayderman]

amazing as always

[PapiJohn51]

I think Valentina plays totally in the spirit of Beethoven. I can picture Beethoven playing his composition exactly like this--with so much vigor and precision!

[GourouxPete]

@PapiJohn51 I couldn't agree more. I posted a comment on her Moonlight Sonata 3rd movt saying that this would be the way Beethoven himself would have played it. Here it is exactly the same - and this is a young Beethoven's work!

My admiration for her work, playing and sense of humour just grows and grows!!

[Bigoaki]

Ms. Valentina's profile is very beautiful!

I think that large musician's atmosphere is equipped in a recent image.

It thinks really so.

Though the hair seems to be only a little obstructive for the performance ･･･ How later if it is bundled?

[PapiJohn51]

Bigoaki, you are definitley an example of someone who thinks he knows English but doesn't have a clue!

[SCordeliaB]

wha?

[solipsis79]

wonderful artist, so expressive!

[StevenCBlah]

This is so amazing. Valentina is by far my favorite pianist.

[IoannkaPapa]

It's so amazing!

[myrelitos]

wow she's amazing, I don't know her, but since today I gonna to hear her,

[AstroExpressions]

Lovely!

Thank you :-)

[afore182]

vraba!!!

[ValentinaFan]

At last, you've managed to upload it. Fantastic, quite fantastic !!

[UndyingAnguish]

Incredible performance! I can't wait until you record all 32 Beethoven sonatas. I know I'll be one of the first to purchase a copy.

[RumMyers]

So glad I subscribed. ;)

[Linnk]

@RumMyers yeah, me too. It's the best channel I have subscribed

[frankorusso]

I love to see you smiling and enjoying your own playing! :)

Thanks, great Valentina!!!

[BBaudelaire]

Thank you for uploading this piece Valentina, your dream of playing all Beethoven's Sonatas is really coming true, and you are not just playing, your interpretation is amazing, Irena Koblar's performance of this piece was my favorite until now. You put so much energy into your performances that make them unique. You are more than the Pianist Electrifying :)

[ALEClovesGENIALMUSIC]

great great great

[VideosAlcides]

Que alegria encontrar novos vídeos seus, Valentina!

Seu amor pelo piano mostra-se revigorado a cada apresentação...

Às vezes é difícil expressar toda nossa admiração e respeito...

Você é perfeita! Bravíssima!!!

[RenanGarciaMoura]

Beaultiful performace!

[aldy32]

Wow, she plays it so effortless

[shaermy]

Amazing...I don't have any words to describe it when you're playing! You're playing Beethoven exactly in this way he has to be played =)

[gouloum2222]

[Ellinidara]

Valentina is a truly great artist,an incredible interpreter,really.

[yiyiku]

[MartinetPhilippe]

Thanks for the beautiful music! You are such a wonderful musician! It's sound that you wrote everything you play by yourself! I'm wondering how do you improvise? Can we heard Lisitsa opus#1?

[gisuona]

Can we heard Lisitsa opus#1?

Bravo!

[CaLaMaRiCcHiA]
