Chopin Competition 2010 - Yulianna Avdeeva - Piano Concerto no1 in e minor - 1st movement (1/2)

[organicnatto]

It is impossible for me to watch and listen to her performance without tears.

It is so touching.

[Dan474834]

Her interpretation of Chopin's Sonata in b flat minor is just the best I've ever heard.

[amer266030]

Chopin's music shows how an artist controls dynamics... She has a good feeling for music that makes me zone out.

Every time I play this video I can't help it to not pause and listen to some parts 2wice so I can watch her expressions.

Superior playing, full of feelings! simply LOVE HER

very talented

[robertslistening]

Alright, I'll see if I can find the redhead violinist (lol). I think she contributes to the feel of the piece for the string section. She was given a bouquet, along with Garrick Ohlsson at his performance of Chopin's 1st concerto. There's a real art to giving the right variations in dynamic levels to make this piece sound best.

[HotslutGG]

@robertslistening As I said, check the performance of the Concerto played by Tysman e.g. where that redhead plays. She also played in Geniusas' performance and most likely a few more.

[HotslutGG]

@robertslistening She's playin in the performance of Helene Tysman (2010) e.g.

[robertslistening]

@HotslutGG

I think Helene Tysman got distinction in this, but never won, right. Tysman won the Dartstadt Chopin competition. This is the Warsaw Chopin competition. Correct.

[HotslutGG]

@robertslistening Not sure what you're talking about but your original question was where the red-haired 1st violinist is in this performance. Check other performances of the Chopin Concerto from THIS competition and you'll find her :)

Yamaha website - The 9' CFX full concert grand, which replaces Yamaha's acclaimed CFIIIS concert grand piano, was launched in January 2010... the instrument represents 19 years of research and development... The process culminated with a series of top-secret, in-depth evaluation sessions conducted in New York, Paris and Tokyo with top artists and Yamaha artist services over the last few years.

Apparently Yamaha is outdoing Steinway. Look at the piano she's playing..

and of course the pianist

Returned from her concert in Prague spring festival.

That night Yuliana’s performance was also magnificent especially the Mazurka that reminded me of the Polish native energetic rhythm

of the dancing and like this concerto her Rubato is ingenious as if she has her own interpretation and story in every tunes.

[kenkengotanda]

I like the way she looked up the conductor and returned to her piano to enter to the concerto with her first strong touch. Excellent.

[Car5201]

Excelent interpretation of Chopin `s feeling ! . Very good video in all sense.

[arpistadellamedusa]

i like her because she's 30yo,and she's the demonstration that you mustn't be a prodigy to become famous....

[inspiredbyteaching]

really amazing playing

[113AMG]

The french horn must be hard to play. Listen at 1:14.

[utopian1129]

she is amazing.. but i still like kissin better~ but she is still amazing

[surgere94]

The flutist lady has amazing sounds.

[travelfanpolska]

uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu! this performed is ugly!

I'm inviting to performed Ingolf Wunder! It performed is beautiful!

[MicrobeObliteratorMo]

Very sensitive playing

[Paulland30]

The best, no words , she is the winner,, the best!!

[monkeydude512]

wow i was amazed by her touch, it's wonderful. however, i feel like she plays this more as a solo piece that as a concerto with an orchestra. sometimes, she likes to mess with the tempo a little bit which (in my opinion) is just fine in solo, but makes it harder for the orchestra in a concerto.

[fk936]

Chopin : Wo....

[DeviMaltiMillan]

Yulianna Avdeeva…  un ejemplo que dignifica y justifica el estar vivo. Si el mundo entendiera su mensaje no existiría la miseria, no la violencia, no el miedo, no el crimen… Gracias mil.

[TheAL845]

I really do like her interpretation; it is very interesting and has great emotion and other things that are from pure talent. And I'm not saying she shouldn't have won, but I just don't think that Chopin would have played it like that.

[manduker]

3:28 a bit of Bach, Congratulations Yuli!!

[celpiano2]

I would like to see Li, Blechacz, and Avdeeva compete and see who would ultimately win.

[bomberchicken]

@celpiano2 blechacz hands down

[celpiano2]

Blechacz in my opinion is better.

[formerlyaskeptic1]

The most memorable things about Yulliana: her custom-fit suit whose jacket features tapered sleeves! Her frilly blouse! Her huge widely spaced eyes enhanced by a dark coat of eye liner/shadow! She looks more like a businesswoman than a pianist. The most memorable things about Ingolf: his frequent mouth gaping dazed stare into space while playing.

[formerlyaskeptic1]

This is a most wonderful pre-Halloween surprise this month! Thank you all for uploading. Ingolf is great too. His technique makes for some exciting Chopin, even if he lacks the rhythmic and dynamic understanding that Yulliana has. Yes, it's surprising how well she was able to pull off Sonata #2. She has a style where she always sacrifices pace for interpretation. As a result her performances always sound reflective and not so exciting, I suppose. Is she doing this to hide lack of technique? idk

私もあなたを目指して、あなた以上になってショパンコンクールで­すばっらしい結果を望みます



[formerlyaskeptic1]

Good ideas, but interrupts the rhythm and pace of the piece too much. She certainly takes her time and tries to expand the piece as far as it can be stretched.

[CaradhrasAiguo49]

@formerlyaskeptic1: true. she is certainly not Gilels, who takes about the same tempi except for the agitato of the recap.

[saululerio]

ahhhh! and what an intellectual intensity in her playing too!

The sonata was superb!

[saululerio]

I love her mistakes! She is human... and everyone plays wrong notes!

I find her interpretations unique, with a real sensibility, power and emotional adventure.

After days watching the videos of all of the finalist, my humble opinion is that she is, by far, the most interesting and refreshing artists of all.

Her playing is also crisp, alive, heroic and ethereal when needed. I am looking forward for her next 10 years. Congratulations to Yulianna.

[maxjamesorgans]

@saululerio I think it's a bit much to say you LOVE her mistakes though...

1980 he entered the International Frederic Chopin Piano Competition in Warsaw and was eliminated in the third round. Thanks in 2010 for this 1 place.
