De Larrocha plays Albeniz Iberia

[techdefined]

What a amazing music come to my ears, it sounds like angels playing harps.She plays so virtous and majestethic.

[vergelsecreto]

Her sound is unique and unmistakable. She is and she will always be my favourite female pianist. :)

[OrangeSodaKing]

@vergelsecreto She is easily the best female pianist to exist, and one of the best pianists period! :)

[AgnesRegina]

She is lovely! And she plays as gorgeously as she looks! :) R.I.P. Alicia... what an inspiration.

[maluelilla]

Maravillosa, como siempre........D.E. P

[josetato]

Esta pieza es un milagro y Alicia lo proyecta perfectamente como es. Gracias Albeniz y gracias Alicia!!

This piece is a miracle...and Alicia's interpretation is exactly how it should be. Thank you Albeniz and thank you Alicia. I have to play this for my piano jury so good luck to me D:

[yluz114]

[richclayderman]

@thetunr lol

[Kiarinadia]

It would be interesting that someone post also her version of 1987 of that piece. This picture of her face is one of her best picture...

[petezilla]

her touch and tone is incredible. INCREDIBLE!

[drouhin]

I only discovered her after her death, but I am so glad I did. Iberia has been living in my CD player recently, and I'm grateful for the introduction to Soler she's given me. I find myself craving her Bach too. What an underrated talent! Why didn't I hear more about her earlier?

[antonio97514]

Meravigliosa!

[CoKremer]

ik ben de zuster van harry voorenen ik ken ook alicia redelijkaf en toe ga ik nog even bij ze langs. ik mis m,n broer nog steeds.

[AlpineYuppie]

Tell you what, I have never had interest in learning this piece until I heard this interpretation. Incredible.

[Girlsinvade]

Superbe interprétation !!!

[mercurio725]

Alicia de Larrocha foi uma intérprete ímpar.

[mercurio725]

Grande intérprete. Qualidade rítmica e melódica.

[ChopRachma]

Insurpassable....

[C2209w]

De Larrocha ha contribuído como nadie a la difusión de esta demasiadas veces incomprendida música de Albéniz.

Las interpretaciones de doña Alicia son simplemente impecables, cristalinas, de divina precisión y musicalidad. Repertorio quizá no muy amplio, pero lo que ella tocó nadie lo tocó como ella.

[cooperalia]

@C2209w Perdona, pero estás equicocad@ en lo que su repertorio no era muy amplio. Precisamente es todo lo contrario!! Amplísimo!! pero la mayoría de la gente lo desconoce. AdL tocó mucho + que música española. Desde compositores Barrocos, classicos, románticos, impresionistas y algunos contemporáneos. A parte de esto, estoy de acuerdo en todo lo que dice. Un cordial saludo

[KogumaMischa]

Fantastic!

[Beowulf13371337]

Beautiful, just beautiful.

[RomeroRociero]

que se puede decir sobre una Diosa Del Piano! Great!

[MultiTyrannosaurus]

Geniale Komposition, geniale Interpretation!

[juanferdb]

Que decir de este video si creo que su musicalidad y sentimiento hablan por si solo. Sin duda una inspiración para todos los que nos gusta la música.

[marcorochapianista]

Me sumo con respeto y admiracion al recuerdo de esta gran pianista mundial cuyo legado trascenderá por siempre.

[azulximena]

Absolutamente genial!!!!

[CBPBroker]

esta es la mejor versión de esta canción sin duda. Absolutamente misterioso, tal belleza y marvilla. One of my favorite pieces ever, the whole suite itself is brilliant. So sad she is gone but she left us with such amazing music.

[PoorlyDeveloped]

Rest in peace.

Thank you for your talent.

You will be greatly missed.

[nico22059]

rest in peace

[Xdipla]

Siempre te recordaremos Alicia

Descansa en Paz

[emanbonnici]

Descansa En Paz, Querida Alicia!

[flphea14]

A sad day indeed for those of us who loved her playing. How precious are these videos to go with all of the amazing recordings this great Lady has left us.

[operabruin1]

Rest in peace, my Dear Dear Lady Laroccha.....You will be so sorely missed by the music community. Thank You for all your Recordings and Public Appearances all around the world, that brought, and still brings so much joy to those of us who loved you for years, and also for those who have yet to discover you through recordings. ~operabruin

[aaround]

we are going to miss you here in New York..

Resting in peace..

A requiem for you, our friend .

Descansa en Paz

[ssssxxxxssss]

La Pau sigui amb tú.

[Toscavsky]

Descanse en Paz

[Ourmutual]

Descanse en paz.

[thetunr]

Rest in peace, Alicia.

[EPChem1]

beautiful.. some rubato will be needed in order to make it better.. nevertheless well done

[donaldcallen]

Interesting. You are giving advice about rubato to one of the greatest interpreters of Spanish piano music who has ever lived?

[yourforte]

Wonderful.

[naujnoznom]

Guillermo González es el mejor intérprete de la iberia

[ODTROG]

Alicia de Larrocha is one of the greatest piano virtuosos and the best interpreter of Granados and Albéniz.

I have several Alicia's piano recordings. Her performances are a very joyful music that fills with joy and happiness our hearts.

Bravo! Maestra de maestros!

[MoralesCaso]

Por muchas grabaciones e interpretaciones que se quieran hacer de esta obra, LA DE ALICIA ES Y SERÁ ETERNAMENTE LA MEJOR!!!!!!!!!

UN BESO ENORME ALICIA!!!!!!!!! I LOVE YOU!!!!!!!!!!

[MoralesCaso]

Por muchas grabaciones e interpretaciones que se quieran hacer de esta obra, LA DE ALICIA ES Y SERÁ ETERNAMENTE LA MEJOR!!!!!!!!!

UN BESO ENORME ALICIA!!!!!!!!! I LOVE YOU!!!!!!!!!!

[heinzgilbert]

OHHH MAN!!!! makes me wanna study this piece

[TikiFury]

Alicia makes the piano sound like real bells from cathedralls in Sevilla. However i must say that her second performance of this work in 1987 is even better i'll see if i can find it...

[loveforever997755]

Absolutely agree with you

[PhillipLWilcher]

I have always loved her and I always will!

[rl1416]

Yes, absolutely perfect! Thank you very much, thetunr. Can you provide me the title of the CD?

[thetunr]

AFAIK De Larrocha recorded Iberia twice, in 1962 and in 1987. The present recording is from the 1962 EMI complete set.

[chacoteris]

Absolutely perfect! No wonder Arrau and Rubinstein ceased to play Spanish music after hearing her!!!

[WolvieShedevil]

Who doesn't ? it's amazing :)

[gollllum]

I love it!!!!
