Ravel - Left Hand Concerto (Cadenza) - Leon Fleisher

[f4c3pwnz]

Magnificent. Any info on where/when this performance was recorded?

[shaun123w]

inspiration for me, a pianist who has recently broken his right hand!

[AudiobookReviews]

Amazing, that so many people are in the audience. Sold out crowd, like what's usually at a rap or rock concert. This is one of the most amazing pieces of music ever written, and yet how many of the general public have heard it?

[dragmio]

@AudiobookReviews That's how we, eurotrash, roll. We're not as sophisteicited as our American masters.

[bonmom]

Mr. Fleisher suffered from focal dystonia of his right hand, so for a period of time specialized in pieces for the left hand. He is a genius, an athlete, and an inspiration.

What a magnificent concerto!!

Especially what we can "see"at the last part, Although the pianist seem like struggle to fight with the whole orchestra, but still the piano sound is hardly can hear... A kind of moving and shocking

[geneosis]

Looking for the rest of this concert please.

I hope a recording of this performance is available? Someone can tell me?

[Sodelle]

Leon, my favorite teacher of all time, you weave great magic with your phrasing...

[WAMEDJO]

I've had a strange feeling listening to this, that Ravel was in the air...Weird !

[callenishss]

at 1:48 are those people in an audience

too bad his right hand has problems, he has to choose this piece

[pno4tay]

@callenishss He has regained the use of his right hand and is performing as such again. Has played such works as the Franck Symphonic Variations since this, and made two solo CDs.

[realjuvelive]

[licoricestic]

the ending blew me away the first time i heard this piece...i was hypnotized by the cadenza

[philfingersjameson]

[YofterMofter]

@philfingersjameson It's easy with tiny kangaroos under the hood of your piano.
