also your tempo is perfect...not mentioning the hesitations, that's only technique and thus it can be improved with work, and I think the hesitations add to the beauty of this piece at some moments.
Cambry I have been around you tube to listen to this piece and I think you are the one who plays it better (better than Lugansky also !), you put so much soul into it, especially in this version, even if there are little mistake, does not matter, makes it even more beautiful. Sometimes the famous pianists play this piece like machines, but you really "sing" it, so thank you. I bought the partition thanks to you, to play it too.
@joiesauvage Hear Jung Lin's performance? She has incredible lyrical expression and emotion in her interpretation, and perfect technique. You are right, this is preferable to Lugansky!
phew. not the best i've ever heard, but it's pretty good. there are noticeable pauses before the big chords and this is hardest aspect of the piece (nailing the big chords cleanly as well as hitting them on time so that the audience doesn't notice the pauses). good job, but it can be improved.
@TheJerusal3m WHAT THE FUCK IS YOUR PROBLEM? Just because he is African-American, he cannot play classical music? If you truly care about the "beauty" that is music, you'll know that it has no bounds and has the capacity to captivate and inspire anyone with the compassion and interest-that which you clearly do not have. YOU, are not worthy because YOU do not understand. FUCK OFF.
I really love his prelude op 23 no 5 in g minor. Appreciate if you could listen and provide some comments on my videos. If you like, please subscribe. I love this piece and this guy plays well!!!
this guy plays it awesome, though lugansky does it too fast...both versions are great played.. Rach music is amazing, is deep loaded with emotion ,but I prefer Art Tatum as my favorite pianist of all time, until now nowbody can´t play tiger rag like he did it....
Darlin u are ....pfft...ive not the words.....but awesome......i feel the passion, and stance....but? sorry babe its a tiny flaw................otherwise all good..............remember to keep your mouth closed sweetheart i dont wanna see you catch flies...it would be a waste....ur composure alone is fab! you get a thumbs up
It is absolutely uncivil to post "so and so is better" on any artists clip! Cambry plays this wonderfully in his interpretation - I like it ! Lugansky has his style - more modern and tailored to current tastes, and he also is a wonderful artist - but he is not close to being the best doing Rach moment on you tube
Listen to Rach playing moment 2, Horowitz playing moment 2 & 3, Jung Lin playing moment 4, and Gilels playing moment 5, these clips are all on you tube and they are extraordinary
@DSM1G90 off of the top of my head, i can provide two: nikolai lugansky and lazar berman
and unfortunately, critics are allowed to say whatever they want regardless of their abilities, so it doesn't matter if they think they play it better than cambry, but it does matter if they all think it's bad, and it's even worse if they're right.
i feel like it should be louder in general and I would prefer more emotion with a loud bang. hold that pedal til the very end and push with your body weight, not your fingers. It's an emotional piece that deserves a great ending.
Maybe opening up that grand piano to bring out more sound? Maybe it was your recorder but the sound should consume the room. I recorded that for my college resume in a room surrounded by wood, wooden walls, wooden floors with a recording system in the several thousands
(and chars got full) 3:35! WHY?WHAT?WHY? but ?? ..you just ruined the whole song! you tried so hard with the song and completely washed it down the toilet with your careless ending .... :(
i must say i like this video more than the newer one. its has more power in it. but still if you dont mind, at 0:43 where the octave-melodies come in, you play the second note of the 2 melodynotes too loud. the first one more and then make your hand lighter with the second. OMG 1:05 its PP! there was NO contrast between FF and PP. you played it all MF. and gosh 1:45 you went faster in CULMINATION! slow down and take time in culminations and 1:56 you must change the mood, more awaiting and calm
i think i just hit a talent wall. i learnt piano really fast, but i just hit a wall with this song. i think i realize this is where ppl with real talents excel. my left hand simply cannot press accurately at this speed.
you don´t know anything about rachmaninoff an piano you only are donkey that say stupid things an also about interpretation , are you a russian teacher to say how he has to play ? no¡¡¡
you only are a stupid guy that has a big mouth like an ass yes you has an ass in your face
why the hell would you play the last chord as horribly as that. Makes no sense. Maybe Cambrys fingers were covered in fried chicken grease and he slipped on the last chord.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
you people are all crazy. Im not a racist by any means. I dislike scumbags in general, which i what you all are. Cambry sucks horribly. I love Andre Watts, who is black, so your assumptions are all wrong. I just cant stand this guy, his interpretations make me sick.
Funny cause his interpretation is standard... so why don't you go get sick and die? Cause it would be totally helpful to all of us if you go hang yourself. Really, go ahead, I'll be there to cut the telephone chord so no one calls 911. Really, like strangle yourself with a piano string, or even better, let it close down on your head a few times. Seriously, no go for it, you're such a big shot, why don't you follow through with your interest in killing yourself. We're all excited for it.

nigs have respect, who wears blue jeans and a walmart house robbers black cap when they play piano. Absolute disgrace. Was this a KFC tribute concert?
meleeman90, I agree. And it isn't his first time if you look at his channel comments, someone admonished him about that 2 YEARS ago. He's a jealous idiot who hates to see a black man play a difficult piece.
My problem is, this guy is a dirtbag, ive seen his interviews. Not to mention, although he got the notes down, this interpretation is horrific and I think Sergei turned around in his grave upon hearing this. Listen to Nikolai Lugansky play it.
rachmanericoff, No, your problem is that you are just JEALOUS because you WISH you could play this well. WHERE are YOUR videos playing it like Nikolai Lugansky? NOT! Each artists are INDIVIDUALS and have their OWN interpretations in case you haven't noticed, moron. Lugansky can play it his way, and Cambry can play it his OWN way.
rachmanericoff, My problem is that you are a douchebag who needs to STFU and don't listen if you don't like his playing. Read the top of my channel because this describes YOU to the letter!
You don't insult people just because you don't like their interpretation, fucktard.
There are some things to say positively and negatively,. I think you know that yourself. I have followed your playing over the years. Your Rachmaninov is developing beautifully. I would love hearing your play this same piece in 10 years from now! Keep up the wonderful creation!
hey, monsieur, well attempted! but your left hand reminds me of Manny Ramirez in left field - a little scrambly and inelegant. With your powers of technique you could (in a few well spent hours) make it more like Manny at the plate - all smoothness and control. cheers!!!
where's the emotion? Why ignore all of the dynamics? I'll admit that it's decent, above average solely because I can't find another recording of this without paying >.>: but it's just too fervent. There's two ways of interpreting this piece, one with a beautiful and smooth left hand in the beginning which carries throughout the piece or a madman key smashing left hand and you of course chose the latter. I have no objections; music is free to be interpreted but I prefer my style of playing =\

@decemberflowerr rach is my favourite composer (one of them). I like to say that rather than the best, because there is no BEST only preferences..some like Beethoven and Mozart the best, whereas I hate Classical period music..
Very nice performance!! I love Rachmaninoff to pieces he's really a grand composer. :) The recording room you used is not so great, so I'm sure it probably sounds better in another room, but overall it was awesome :)
I love this piece, however, the recording in this room, sorry to say, was pretty lousy. The listener can't pick up on the nuances of the middle and lower notes well, if at all. Because of this you lose many of the overtones, subtones and chords. Very well played though. I am quite impressed.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
SO SLOPPY (especially the beginning!!!!!) SO LOUD, ADD MORE SOFT AREAS, USE MORE PEDAL
AND ALSO ALOT OF U GUYS ARE SAYING THAT HE IS SOOOOOOOOO EMOTIONAL, HE HAS TOO MANY LOUD PARTS, IT IS ONLY THE NOTES THAT MAKE YOU THINK THAT HE PUT A LOT OF EFFORT AND EMOTION. I ONLY ONLY SEVERAL PLACES OF CRESCENDOS, DECRESCENDOS, SFORZANDOS, ETC.!!!!!
( i kinda wanted to experiment, and see how people would respond...hehehehehe!)
I almost got the bassline down on the guitar. that alone sounds very powerful . guess i have to get me one of those loopboxes to even try the whole thing
but very nicely done sir, better than most of these 'pro' versions imo
Yes you opened up the comments again! To be honest i think this version is superior to response. I love this piece and you do such a great job. 100+ views i keep coming back to see it :D
This is one of my favorite videos ever. This song is packed full of powerful emotion and the left hand is on full tilt. Your on your way to becoming a virtuoso. Great job. Keep up the good work.
His playing lacks the full sound you can produce in many of the fast downward runs which is a result of the fingers not moving fully at the knuckles. Using the arm and elbow as a fulcrum point to give an even and constant full sound out really helps. It is most evident when he must slow down at points to get the sound he wants out such as the prestissimo passage toward the end.
I think it's pure madness to compare him with any virtuose. This is an excellent video and interpretation of Rachmaninoff only if we keep in mind that this is an amateur job. Evgenia Rubinova kick ass in the Moments Musicaux; her intrepretation is by FAR better.
Better than Lugansky? Are you joking? World class professional against home-bread mediocrity - either you people are completely tone-deaf, or political correctness has really come to that...
P.S. Why is he wearing a hat? Is it cold of something..?
I may be listening in abit late. So I must appologize if I missed something. You'all forgot to say what I have to ..Cambry! Excellent job! You have mastered a piece that is on a par with the most difficult. Dont know what "Wing" is talking about. Nothing in the Moonlight sonata comes close to the difficulty level.

Very nice,
That poor old Baldwin piano needs some work, however you were able to make it sound good.

Very nice performance!! I love Rachmaninoff to pieces he's really a grand composer. :) The recording room you used is not so great, so I'm sure it probably sounds better in another room, but overall it was awesome :)

I love this piece, however, the recording in this room, sorry to say, was pretty lousy. The listener can't pick up on the nuances of the middle and lower notes well, if at all. Because of this you lose many of the overtones, subtones and chords. Very well played though. I am quite impressed.

you did all of this constructive criticism without looking at the video response? or even how old this video is?
PianoPlaya123 3 years ago
yes, because that is what this video was. I commented on the video not the response.

Excellent well played.I like this piece.

SO SLOPPY (especially the beginning!!!!!) SO LOUD, ADD MORE SOFT AREAS, USE MORE PEDAL
AND ALSO ALOT OF U GUYS ARE SAYING THAT HE IS SOOOOOOOOO EMOTIONAL, HE HAS TOO MANY LOUD PARTS, IT IS ONLY THE NOTES THAT MAKE YOU THINK THAT HE PUT A LOT OF EFFORT AND EMOTION. I ONLY ONLY SEVERAL PLACES OF CRESCENDOS, DECRESCENDOS, SFORZANDOS, ETC.!!!!!
( i kinda wanted to experiment, and see how people would respond...hehehehehe!)
RESPOND TO THIS GUYS, I DON'T FREAKING CARE

Who the fuck cares how hard it is? What's wrong with you people? It's about the emotion and the pain/happiness/distrust/ whatever you get from it.
Technical skill is like math, it can be learned by anyone. UNLIKE creativity.

I listened to some "Moment Musical No. 4".
This is really best.

I almost got the bassline down on the guitar. that alone sounds very powerful . guess i have to get me one of those loopboxes to even try the whole thing
but very nicely done sir, better than most of these 'pro' versions imo

I actually like the fact that your recording isn't super-fast. It allowed you to use more rubato.

I prefer the interpretation of Lugansky, but this is also great! Good job! I love your videos!

Yes you opened up the comments again! To be honest i think this version is superior to response. I love this piece and you do such a great job. 100+ views i keep coming back to see it :D

This is one of my favorite videos ever. This song is packed full of powerful emotion and the left hand is on full tilt. Your on your way to becoming a virtuoso. Great job. Keep up the good work.

His playing lacks the full sound you can produce in many of the fast downward runs which is a result of the fingers not moving fully at the knuckles. Using the arm and elbow as a fulcrum point to give an even and constant full sound out really helps. It is most evident when he must slow down at points to get the sound he wants out such as the prestissimo passage toward the end.

I think it's pure madness to compare him with any virtuose. This is an excellent video and interpretation of Rachmaninoff only if we keep in mind that this is an amateur job. Evgenia Rubinova kick ass in the Moments Musicaux; her intrepretation is by FAR better.

Better than Lugansky? Are you joking? World class professional against home-bread mediocrity - either you people are completely tone-deaf, or political correctness has really come to that...
P.S. Why is he wearing a hat? Is it cold of something..?
krotkrotkrot123 4 years ago
man i don't really care if lugansky is an universe super mega hyper professional. He has absolutely FAST MECHANICAL playing.
Jonathan does it expressive and not so fast. Really good for the ear.

I AGREE, MUCH BETTER THAN LUGANSKY,
Jonathan you said "view video response" but this one is better than video response, better sound quality, piano and playing...
keep up the good work !!!!!

I may be listening in abit late. So I must appologize if I missed something. You'all forgot to say what I have to ..Cambry! Excellent job! You have mastered a piece that is on a par with the most difficult. Dont know what "Wing" is talking about. Nothing in the Moonlight sonata comes close to the difficulty level.

notes might be right, but there is no emotion. Might be because of the cheap electrical piano.
