Mitsuko Uchida on Beethoven's Piano Concertos

[Vlaanderson]

I like how her sentences are interspersed with "Ja" and "So". The german spirit really catched her apparently.

[manuelspcool]

@Vlaanderson and the reason is that She has been living in Austria since 1960 or something like that I've listened her german and it's an Austrian german which I dunno is kinda different, her german is even better than her english.

[johnst66xx]

I just bought the CD of her playing the last three Beethoven sonatas, and she is extraordinary. I read that she's currently learning the Diabelli Variations -Yippee!!!

[hugh0221]

She reminds me of Helen Mirren characters. And the accent sounds like learnt from someone like Hitler, a German-speaking orator. Just charismatic! <3

I LOVE Mitsuko Uchida. Her breadth of knowledge and true UNDERSTANDING of the pieces is outstanding and one can really experience it in her playing. Her playing is clear and gently, yet forcefully expressing her emotions. She is one of hte few artists to really dig deep into the pieces and bring about its true colors. In addition, she is humble as well. She knows that she is not perfect, but the sheer enthusiasm she brings in trying to produce th best music is inspiring. May she always prosper!

[beethovenboy]

I love how she prefers tolerance of interpretation.

[TheJfsruiz]

I did not know she was so emotional

[clairefedfield]

I'm not much of a classical music person except for a few pieces but I would pay for this woman to read to me. She has the best voice!

[unitednerdsbeproud]

She's so delightful!!!! I just want to have dinner and talk about music with her forever...
