Maurice Ravel [Gaspard de la Nuit] N°1 - Ondine

[Ultrazone91]

I know Perlemuter and his great style of playing but I'n also almost sure that this is Not him playing...I mean the beginning is awful, I couldn't go on listening...this is not him

[fatherjerome2000]

This man is perfection. Just love his playing and this piece.

[Mikhail2406]

In case they have yet to realize that this man has studied all of Ravel's works with Ravel himself and has performed all his works twice in the composer's presence!!!!!!!! THIS IS AS CLOSE AS IT GETS TO THE COMPOSER'S INTENTIONS. It never ceases to amaze me as to the rhythmic precision at is often lost by the virtuosic thoughts of our modern day pianists. Hats off to you Vlado Perlemuter!!!!

@poisonoustea Hello. He has a fantastic performance released on Nimbus records. THAT is how I came to love these pieces. He is a conjurer of a fantastic atmosphere.

[Ravel87]

there were videos of perlemutuer playing these 3 pieces, in his late ages. why did they remove them :(

[lesurfman]

This is the best performance EVER.

But i would have wanted to see the original vid which has been deleted months ago...

[Jussipupu]

Why is ondine here but scarbo removed? I always loved listening to and watching him play scarbo. If it is your video please put it back! :-)

[Classisch]

@Jussipupu unfortunately it is not my video... i also would like to see/hear it again on youtube!

[paulphilip1]

@Jussipupu i agree cant understand why it was removed. someone out there must know

[willweeverknow]

my favourite part is from 3:30 - 3:40 :-)))

Pianiste en herbe.. retenez ce que Vlado Perlmuter vous transmet des oeuvres de Ravel qu'il détient du compositeur lui même. Qui l'a entendu live, comme

moi lors de ses concerts à Dartington Hall dans les années '80,

aura gouté l'extase fait de science et d'art que le meilleur de notre tradition musicale ait pu produire dans tous ses siècles d'existence. R.I.P. Vlado !

[rickstill122]

What an interpretive artist Perlemuter always is.

[WatchBlueSkies]

Wonderful !Thank you so much for this !

[shakebansari]

fantastic!!

Vlado is a legend!!

Does anyone know what happened to (my favorite video) where Perlemuter Plays Ondine and he is in his 90s. He is sufferining from Orofacial dyskinesia and yet plays flawlessly...oh i so hope it gets posted back

[paulphilip1]

@shakebansari i totally agree cant understand where its gone

[Jettie12]

@shakebansari Yeah, that was amazing. The image of him playing added to the song.
