Beethoven Sonata No.23 f minor op.57 "Appassionata" 3rd mov.

[TheCrazyHairPianist]

This is really good. People who leave shitty comments can't play this.

[psyconoclast]

Very passionate performance, well done!

[thefreezelion]

ich mag dein Auftitt !!! ^^

Du hast wirklich großes Talent

[Jee0073]

This music is exciting....

When I close my eyes I imagine amazing things...

Good job!

[Musiclover9208]

YOU'RE TRULY TALENTED!! amazing performance! im a pianist as well! i have been playing since i was 5 years old =)

I liked the intensity you brought in the piece and good use of dynamics! i loved the ending!!!

[faleru]

i prefered your previous version

[KibaOzamoto]

very nice

[clarksta123]

hmm...

Personally, I like Chopin more than Beethoven...

I'm not sure, I have to listen to more..

they're both definantly spectacular, but I think that beethoven is just too showy and doesnt have enough feeling in it...

This was played very well though!! :)

[Beethoven1111]

Wow Id go gay for someone who can play that movement so well lol! That was good, that was one of the most intense interpretations Ive listened too. You're playing is awesome man

[wordoc23]

I wanna play just like you when I get older.

[TastyColoda134]

I can say, that as a pianist as well, This is probably one of the best interpretations I've heard! Sir, you are a great pianist! you should keep going with what you have, and hopefully mabey I'll even end up running into you at a competition one day! Keep it up! 5/5*

[classicalmusic29]

I know this vid is about 2 years old, but congrats on the coda. That's so difficult to play the first half of it (the coda) that fast. I find the last part is easier though. At first I was wondering how you could get the Presto section faster than the rest of the piece, but good job.

[catwalkss]

Terrific, can you tell me how long it takes to learn how to play this piece? 1000 hours? 2000 hours?....whatever it is....I would like to know.

[diegowsanchez]

i think the sound quality is better on the other one, but you play sooo good mann

i love it

[ILoveThePiano1]

How young are you? Like 12? U r simply AMAZING!! Is that you playing Chopin's Revolutionary Etude? 'Can't tell since your back was to the cam. I'm assuming that was also you? You look older from the back. lol lol Silly me. Please let me know okay? You are a freak'n GENIUS at the keyboard. I wish I had your talent. I struggle for months at the piano and still come up short. You sound fantastic!

[ca707070]

[wnaenni]

Sehr beeindruckend!!!

[TheLovelyPiano]

0-0

WOW!

[gedscottpiano]

id pay to watch you! Whats your full name and where do you play?

[Kvadich]

your interpretation is one of the best I've heard, magnificent indeed!

[zlati85]

I´m speechless...Amazing!

[lostxyz]

You fingers move so fast! Amazing

[nanothepiano]

what`s your name?!! you`re a very good pianist!! i may post videos of mine soon..

[marcraider]

tecnicamente me parecio casi perfecto (salvo algunos lugares en los que se perdio un poco de fuerza. Pero note que le falta inspiracion a tu interpretacion, ya que me parecio un poco mecanica casi sin mucho sentimiento, esta sonata debe tocarse con pasion, con mas imaginacion, apasionadamente, y creo que le falto esto a tu interpretacion. DE todas maneras tecnicamente hablando te felicito, y sigue adelante.

[jinxii92]

beethoven is my husband :D

and u have become vice-husband

this was AMAIZING

*Im just starting to play piano so.. i'm horrable D:*

[mremile72]

Absolutely fantastic, great interpretation and technique and sounds brilliant! well done, I'm astonished =D

[Frankachuable]

I agree with CaliffDude13, to fast, truly a great pianist you are. You hit every key nearly flawlessly which is quite remarkable since it's an 8 minute song:) you know you could've done better. it needs more of a(n) legato feeling and could more dynamics, more of a surprise with the double forte's. (lol, i sound like a criticXD, but i are nots) anyways, Great job:)

[pcma1970]

Perfect Wonderful.Congratulations!!!!

[ALADISTRRINA123]

ótima interpretação

[beg005]

You have virtuosic abilities that distinguish you from other

so with the right professor you can become 1 of the best in the world at the level of yundi lee

[beg005]

Very good beethoven sounds you play it with spirit and passion i liked it a lot

[kiwi7480]

much better, verry nice! congrat's

[szftjjk]

muy bien ahi esta la tecnica sobre digitacion pero siento que iso falfa mas interpretacion ya que observe que algunos reguladores no fueron respetados FELICIDADES SIGUE ASI

[qfxp]

Uau!!!! Great!

[revilo178]

awesome!

[ALinii1]

Wow, nicht schlecht! Respekt, tolle Leistung sowas :P

Da bin ich mit meinen 8 Jahren Klavierunterricht wohl nix :D aber wirklich toll :P könnt's mir 1oo mal anschauen und ich würd's immernoch nich langweilig finden!

Lg

[CalifDude13]

Terrific performance. BUT slow down!!!!!

The fast part of this peice comes at the end.

Auf Duetsch langsams?

[ZarathustraXX]

du bist deutsch? ok. dann will ich dir mal schreiben:

ich liebe diese interpretation! die ist zwar an manchen stellen noch verbesserungsfähig (ja ach...) aber insgesamt mag ich die mehr als von so manchem anerkannten weltstar.

so viel kraft! soviel gewalt! achherrje! so wie du das stück verstanden hast, so verstehe ich es. du spielst ganz aus meiner seele.

vielen dank dafür!

[eylene]

They say weddings in the spring are prettier but for you i'll settle for the fall.

I think it'll work out. You'll help me with my piano playing and i'll help you with your math. We'll be the cutest couple ever. :]

[anonymousQ45]

alot of pedal dont you think? youre still talented but the pedal blurs many of the colours of this movt. try it with less pedal next time

[ytkRisS]

I don't think that I used the pedal as much as you think, because the hall was very big, and sometimes it sounds like I used pedal, but I didn't. But anyway, next time I could make it a bit more transparent.

[anonymousQ45]

did you play this at school?

[analizzzxD]

i really love it!! jeje... sounds so passionate xD

[Bspeder]

from 0.25 the left hand could be stronger at playing!

Otherwise fantastic!

[eylene]

marry me

[bennettgirl91]

your performance was inspiring; thanks for posting it!

[cherise123]

Deine Appassionata ist wirklich toll! Eine hervorragende Darbietung

dieser Sonate und imo eine der Besten, die ich hier auf youtube gesehen hab. ^^ Kannst wirklich stolz auf dich sein. :)

[ytkRisS]

Vielen Dank für deine Komplimente! Ich hab diese Sonate über 2 Jahre immer wieder gespielt und wieder beiseite gelegt (und u.a. bei zwei verschiedenen Lehrern gespielt), und wirklich viel Arbeit hineingesteckt. Habe bis jetzt an keinem Stück so intensiv gearbeitet wie an diesem, ausser natürlich dem Grieg Konzert.

Ich hoffe ich werde bald Zeit haben, neue Videos hinaufzuladen, u.a. mit Debussy Preludes und Mendelssohns Variations serieuses.

[cherise123]

Bitteschön! Ich find diese Perfektionierung über Jahre hinweg sehr erstaunlich. Mir passiert es immer wieder, dass sich ein Stück - je länger ich es spiele - nur noch in den Fingern und nicht mehr im Kopf abspielt. Ausserdem schleichen sich manchmal Fehler oder unsauberes Spiel ein, das muss man dann zu verhindern wissen. In deinem Fall hat es sich jedenfalls sehr gelohnt die Zeit und Mühe zu investieren. Ich hoffe man wird noch viel von dir zu hören bekommen. =)

[ytkRisS]

Hey, du sprichst mir aus der Seele! Ich hatte letzten Samstag ein Konzert, wo ich Mendelssohns Variations Serieuses spielte und die 4 Stücke von Prokofievs Romeo und Julia, die ich auch hier auf youtube habe. Und ich merkte richtig, dass ich sie schon zu lange spiele. Zwar alles in den Fingern, aber nix im Kopf:) Am Konzert, wenn dann der Kopf voll dabei ist, kommt der den Reflexen voll in die Quere und man mogelt sich dann irgendwie durch... Eine gewisse Frische tut daher jedem Stück gut:)

[differentmoods15]

That was AMAZING!! I'm so happy the audience wouldn't stop clapping! haha :)

[SatinWorship]

Truly amazing.

[ehddnjsdlfks]

so good

[hypermusic12]

Very, very good!

Loved your particular way to play this!

[squall00258]

[bach9079]

Bravo!!!!You play it great my friend.

[Anycall05]

[Lacrimosus]

tout simplement magnifique!!!

[olgarciadum23]

wow it's amazing I used to play the piano when I was I child looking at your vidios I wish I hadn't stop!

[kobe228]

you play this part very well =) I really want to learn this part!!!.... lol since no one has mentioned this, this part is also in Shindô (very gd film...go watch now!)

[timm0222]

very nervous. you do just hurt the music. there is only noise not music.

[shelling4869]

Love your amazingly playing. I wish I could play like that someday.

[armegeddon7]

overall clean and I enjoyed!!  thanks for posting~

[hypermusic12]

Oh man, I wanne be you *.*

[Lutzenberger]

[Jokecoye2]

milliards de bravos !!!!

[kashkash1986]

seductive

[mh52271]

so fast!

[thetippmenn]

O MY GOD THAT IS WOW

[SulAhP]

omg! I reaally like your playing!!!

[PianoGirl555]

Amazing!!! I love your playing! Really good! Little mistake at 5:44, and lots of miss notes..

The end was a total mess..the fast part with the right hand was bad..i didnt hear a single note.. anyway good playing. i love the part where it gets speed up.. :)

You should check out how Dino Imeri plays this sonata.. its brliant..check it out!

:)

[shishirth]

The performance had all the demonic energy and excitement demanded of the music - the main themes were played very idiomatically - the phrasing of the opening theme was fantastic. I imagine Beethoven would have loved much of this performance.

(A perfect performance till 6:55 when I might steady the tempo before building it up again for the conclusion)

[rachellikescookies]

You might it look so easy!

Wonderful playing. :o

[rachellikescookies]

*make

[nadiaJAZZY]

omg this is like amazing. lol

i just started piano lessons and i can only hope of being as good as u :D

[legamature]

Won't you please in your next video, let us see what you look like?

[xxxks93xxx]

outstanding!!!amazing!!!u play it a bit faster but it turns out very nice though..i`m lookin` forward to see other your performances koz i love your music.>>

[pianistbk]

Well done! my only suggestion is that you would play it a little more passionately.

Keep on playing. You seem to have great talent!(:

[estoyaqui85]

that WAS VERY passionate, believe me

[ataysldi]

Sounds just like the recordings...

I want to play this piece.

[Rubinstein007]

oh ich hab grad deinen kanal besucht und gesehen, dass du in der schweiz lebst, also nehm ich an, kannst du deutsch... =)

wo hast du gespielt? hat dir dein Lehrer das konzert ermöglicht?

ich liebe die appassionata, sie ist eine von meinen lieblings beethoven sonaten.

du hast sehr viel arbeit reingesteckt, man kann es hören...

ich bin begeistert, wie immer, wenn ich monatelange arbeit, (mit kopf- und rückenschmerzen...) in harmonie auf der bühne sehe und höre... super. 5*

[ytkRisS]

Jep, ich lebe in Zürich... Danke für deine Komplimente! Das Konzert hab ich selber mit einer Cellistin organisiert. Wir haben den grossen Saal des Konervatoriums in Zürich reserviert und haben da ein ganzes Programm gespielt. In der ersten Hälfte sie und ich je etwas solo und nach der Pause die Grieg Cellosonate, welche ich vielleicht irgendwann mit ihrer Erlaubnis auch hochladen darf :-)

Die Appassionata ist auch eine meiner liebsten. Von der Dramatik her ist sie nicht zu überbieten...

[Rubinstein007]

oh mann selber organisiert? ein toller schritt! hat es sich gelohnt?

[ytkRisS]

Definitiv. Es sind an die 100 Leute gekommen und wir haben sehr gut Kollekte gemacht.

[Rubinstein007]

very good, really. i like it.

[paulinetseng1]

well, eventhough you played too fast but you performed so well(in fact i didn't even notice that you played too fast )!! You are awesome!! :D

[Boladeath]

Great man! keep uploading your performances

[felipefelipe]

AMAZING btw, is it true that gilels played fast due his nervousness?

[ytkRisS]

yeah, I didn't find out myself, but I read a book from Joachim Kaiser (called "Great Pianists of our time"). And there it says, that if one compares the recordings frmo Gilels in studios with the concerts, there's a remarkable difference in the tempos, obviously due to his nervousness, but maybe also to improve the effect.

[BGandthePIANO]

A solid performance, good for you!

If I may offer one criticism it is that you should consider the "ma non troppo" a bit more in determining your tempo. Whilst what you achieve here is impressive, the level of your performance could be much greater if you preserved the mystery of this movement in your phrasing, the perpetual motion Beethoven wrote gives the illusion of speed, and truly you should only really be at a presto speed when you've reached the Coda!

All the best to your future!

[ytkRisS]

thanks for your comment... it's funny, that the tempo doesn't get too fast was something I had to practice the most, but everytime I play this piece in concert, I play it a lot faster than normally. That's certainly also due to my nervousness... (like Gilels ;))

Yeah, in the end I had to play the coda so damn fast, I almost messed up (I messed up with some notes anyway there)

[tompilk]

fantastic! I wish I could play like that!
