Она олицетворяет воплощение чувств и умелости в единое....

[bcg72]

I love her moxy....."This is my piece, you have to cooperate with me!"

[matthewnprovost]

@bcg72 She said, "collaborate" not "cooperate." Cheers!

[CoolWJL]

I'd Love to hear the symphony on 2 pianos...

" So far in all of her vids, i've only noticed one mistake, brilliant virtuoso. "

[Ellinidara]

Simply lovely and so talented,strong and kind.

[sajidwaikhom]

now i have made up my mind... i m going to learn piano.. & i am 36 years old :)

[johnpkling]

Valentina indicates that she sometimes needs to insists on her ideas. Are conflicts such as the Gould Bernstein one extremely rare?

[ASAngelo]

Magic.

[lty2k84]

She is my favorite. I'm in love with her abilities and artistic virtuosity.

[kran444]

No other pianist makes me want to play more than Valentina Lisitsa.. Sure I will never reach her level (she is not human!) but just playing can be such a pleasure...

[CADMonkey1000]

If the piano was a millatery weapon Pianista Valentina cloud wipe out countries!

[YSBCITTAR]

@CADMonkey1000 Either that or implode the whole universe in on itself...

[song110beforgiving]

My opinion; you gotta play this like your lover has left you!

She plays with such feeling, it is just great.

[belis9]

Genuine, transparent, spontaneous, she is the girl inside her, with her huge knowledge of music...

A superwoman!

[69querfahrer]

how dramatic is that?

[juniormunozc]

Q Hermosa eres valentina DIOS TE BENDIGA X SIEMPRE.

[thatpianoguy2009]

How tall is Valentina Lisitsa?

[tacothunder]

@thatpianoguy2009 "She is... average Ukrainian height."

[LoftyProduction]

parts of this cadenza, for a few seconds in each part sound VERY much like the piano concerto no 3 cadenza

[MusicMan20061210]

It ought to be the conductor's job to prevent in-fighting between the soloist and the rest of the orchestra.

Building blocks by Beethoven: Great opportunities for breaking up his piano sonatas into pieces for practicing. I do that a lot...making exercises out of them, which is making exercise and scale books redundant.

Why do exercise books when you can do the real thing?

[belegSJ]

What is it you're talking about in the end of the video?

[brandonscherrer]

She has a awesome accent.

[betumene]

Val is the greatest pianist of out time! A true, genuine person that cares only about music!

[LousyPianist]

Finally a pianist who knows what she's doing!!

[MegaTomco]

the finish of concerto is too match like concerto 3 . :) but very nice piece at me :)

[Marianofrv]
