Ain Yoon - Chopin Piano Concerto No 2, 2nd mov

[RAJE1953]

Perfecto

[lollx097musicfan]

If I was a part of that orchestra and she'd be at the piano...I wouldn't take my job seriously any more :/ I mean...how old was she here? 10? less?more? well...less than me for certain xD

[hjzitc2010]

She is so graceful, with the beautiful music she is making, she is like an angel!! Amazing!!!!

[TheConradish]

she's 10!!!!!!!!

[hjzitc2010]

You delivered this heavenly piece beautifully and gracefully. Bravo!!

[coglione11]

How old is this pretty baby ? 

[Angelpopsify]

@coglione11 10

[broham89]

i was just looking at the hot black/Indian/Hispanic girl in the background.

[Mandopop101]

It would be an awesome performance if Yoon a in, Marc Yu, George Li, Andrew Li, and Bethany Mo played together since they are all around the same age and have an amazing talent at playing the piano.

[hadrianfour]

For me - she is the best ever

[guyralstin]

Wonderful, Bravo! And.... wtf was that from the audience? There should have been a standing ovation, but I think all I heard was something sounding like a gaggle of trolls throwing up on each other... Too bad, she deserved much better!

[bjoartec]

How refreshing it is to see you smile at the end of this 2nd mv, when people applauded while they shouldn't have :-) it shows how in control you are :-) and how you enjoy playing :-) you are already such an amazingly accomplished pianist at only 10 Y/O, now you are 14 , I have been viewing all your videos on Y/T, also with your little sister playing violin, and can't wait for more !!.... :-) :-) and what a beautiful dress !..

[soledemina1]

The recording is not perfect, unfortunately...but her depth of emotions is amazing in such a young player...let's hope she's not one of the many meteors of the prodige-children :-)

[monelleny]

She is wonderful to listen to. Such ease and depth of expression. Very lyrical and romantic. It will be very interesting to watch her progress.

[Pauliwog13]

@cartof2004 honestly, how can you possible know how the WHOLE population of 8-16 year olds in this world that play that concerto are not better than her just because they aren't broadcasted all over the Internet? Seriously, she is good, but you can't say she's the best, that's ludicrously absurd. A very wise person said "Theres always 1 person better than you in this world"

[darkstar1345a]

@Pauliwog13

i wouold say shes one of the best as is suan hern lee and many more

[cartof2004]

The best pianist of her generation by far

[frankdoviolao]

@cartof2004 Why do people have to make a competition out of music. Is it not much more than sports? I guess people who started this don't understand that music is spiritual not meterial.

[cartof2004]

The best pianist of her generation by far

[ahmedsahid]

Why do people keep saying she will be great one day? She is a great pianist NOW!! What they mean is 'She will be a more 'well known' pianist'. She is as good as anyone I have heard, but I have no doubt some of you 'purist critics' will disagree.

Recognise her genius at this present time - if you are honest!

[Pianoloverok]

Great!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[arthurdonachy]

I like this but is there a reason the child had to be overdressed for this

disturbing

[lovesGenet]

This is intense difficult music .Not digitally difficult but requires timing ,emotional and musical intelligence which this child has already.I so enjoy all the posting s featuring her hear.Her baroque sense is unutterably right . her Poulenc a thing of joy and her Chopin here will mature over time but she is making real music ,phrasing,dynamics and characterization now.wow!!!

[Fas1946]

great job!5*****

[1milanmit]

Beautiful!Bravo.5+

[CookiiOreos]

The way her hands glide over the piano, you can tell she was meant for it...

[pianogirl98]

Simply beautiful!

[metteholm75]

She is truly going to be one of the great ones!

[roberttwfsm]

This girl is so graceful like a swan! She has a career ahead of her now. BRAVA!! Loved it!!! Just beautiful!!!

[xxmrrickxx]

Do you think she wants her childhood back?

[wborgstro]

I had a tear of overwhelming in my eye 3 seconds after she touched the keys. What beauty. Thank you all

[444mariam]

5****

[unalegeli]

bravo

[frankdoviolao]

So beautiful! What a spirit!

[prosdocimo]

Oh... I can tell she is good. 10 years? My god... I hope we can hear more from her in years to come. Chopin's concertos are so difficutl and the music is just lovely. How sad he did not compose more of them :)

[joshjimjoe]

I think I play it better, more jazzier if you please.

[bjoartec]

I love Chopin music, You r and played beautifully thanks !...

[judyesther]

It was soo beautiful!

[Key1Cracker]

Very beautiful...

[Millizz]

graceful like an angel

[carolinesimans]

sooo beautiful... simply beautiful!

xx

[U38066]

1st mov, please!!

[HarveyTruffaut]

How gifted, how blessed, how pretty, how wise.

Thank you

[Maja90LOVEBerezovsky]

BRAVO!

Kissin was 13 years old.....

[givemetime123]

Félicitation, c'est tout simplement génial si jeune et déjà autant de talent de sensibilité, bravo.

[unalegeli]

bravo Y

[mangoeater101]

PRETTY DRESS!!!!! and yea, good playing

[spinoza1111]

When we compare the professionalism of the anonymous Russian blonde second violinist, who plays her small part with such dedication in support of the star, with a slob like Gilbert Kaplan, who egotistically "conducts" slave orchestras in Mahler's Resurrection symphony, we are disgusted.

[chibimaru8]

beautiful, delicate, pure, peaceful. Warmest feeling.

[xXiiluffyhooXx]

she is unreal!!!! and what an amazing dress!!

[straizys]

really not bad !

[x3Kristinaaax99]

haha... loveeee her dress and shes amazing at piano!

[: kristina :]

[theresita95]

i LOVE HER DRESS !! AND SHE IS SUCH ANAMAZING PLAYER !!

[pandaz1993himick]

A stunning performance which intertwines perfectly with the orchestra, lack of rubato in some aeas although understandable since she's with an orchestra!!!!!!!!!!!WAY TO GO

[FreddysHamster]

too right

[FreddysHamster]

Iamnotatree, to right your not a tree your a complete loser with no vidoes of your own like all the others who post comments like that, you'd probably struggle to play snap!!

[SpeciousCho]

Stunning. How can she be only 10?!

[iamnotatree84]

The only emotion a ten year old can understand is "do everything mummy tells me to", and that's the only emotion I hear in this performance.

[itsanthonyhere]

If you were to hear this with no video with a round table of musicians discussing the emotion, saying it's beautiful, you'd agree.

[michekowinx]

By saying this meaning when you are 10 you play what your mommy tells you to do. Who knows if you can play piano?

[itsanthonyhere]

Subscribe to me and I'll post a video in a few days or so. My point was that his comment originated from hindsight bias. Ya her mom forced her to do it but that doesn't mean she doesn't see the beauty in the song just because she was forced to do it. Maybe she was forced to PLAY when she was younger, but she chose this song.

[funney61303349]

ooooooo please if you can see the message please reply ooooooooooooooooooooo please can you marry me i am totaly in love with you your mind is so great i love you

[liszt85]

Where does she study? Could somebody please tell me? I am looking for a teacher,..I am 22. I need a teacher who would take in somebody like me. I've been playing for about 10 years now but never had very good piano education(I'm from India). I have found my way to Vienna now where I am taking lessons at one of the conservatories here. Can people suggest great piano teachers in Europe? All i want to be doing is music..

[elenaceza]

i have to say again its incredibleeeeee. is real she's having only 10 years old????

[elenaceza]

i dont neet to listen all! its enaf hearing few notes to see how great artist is allready

[dharmafriend]

Just unbelieviable...

[spinoza1111]

A SECOND VIOLINIST

She waited as the girl started her beautiful music.

Looking at the audience, she saw them with their attention focused on the girl

Like Odysseus listening to Sirens.

She smiled. This was where she would always be, backstage, helping the Queen into her finery.

Yet, she was content to listen to the mermaid's music, to support her, to be the rock she clung to in the water, the seashell she slept in.

Yes, she was content to be the sea in which the little mermaid swam.

[spinoza1111]

(A poem by a student)

[ASDbreaca]

Amazing!!!!

[perfectlalala]

aww if only i continued my piano lessons... :(

i've always regretted quitting. this only makes it worse. :((

[czorbin]

awesome, shes like half my age and she can do shit I couldn't do on the piano and violin if I played for longer then shes been alive.

[Jaszita]

she looks really pretty in that dress!~~~XD

i'm so jelouse~ she's ten, and performs a chopin piano concerto, and i just turned 17, and i havent done ANY piano concertos... i freak out in front of people!!.... hahaha~~~

she's awsome!

[mcgiver02]

OK, you are less gifted than Yoon on piano, but

you ARE gifted in some other areas :

God is fair.

[Jaszita]

haha~ thanks :)

[rhymer123]

She reminds me of Kissin

[Jaszita]

who's kissin??

[Vancouverite39]

Beautiful. I think there is excellent musicianship here; we have lots of musicology and academic knowledge affecting classical music performance today, but I'm more interested in hearing what someone with a fresh, original child's view can do with the music.

[pianogirl98]

Magnificent!

[ThePianoStudio]

Absolutely beautiful...Congratulations!..­.♪

[Wiriyapon]

i don't know much about music but i was definitely touched when i listened to the girl playing that song. What a beautiful performance!! :)

[ji94552]

What a performance for a 10-year old!!!

Yoon A In, you are a very rare talent. When the time is right, research about Chopin: his life and pian. Then, you'll understand his music better. Please post more video. My piano students and I would like to know more about you.

[bangoopong]

Is she one of those korean-russians? Most of her performances are in Russia. She should come here in the states.

[ahoy16]

im so jealous of her talent!!! chopin piano concerto at her age.. dang... thats really amazing

[coolstrings]

nice gown!

[kumral76]

what nationality is she? there's nothing about her on the internet!? such a RARE talent, no info?!!????

[ahoy16]

i think she's korean yoon a in is a korean anme lol maybe shes studying piano in russia now

[lukensal]

She's a Korean studying in Russia. (Korea is listed in the tags to her videos.)

[PinkyMJK]

I think she'll be one of the Greatest Musicians of the world when she grows up.. [:

[aureliavisovan]

quite well for that age!of course she needs to grow up to really understand what Chopin meant by this...but she has all the time...

[p4o3n]

a discrete humble comment: I think she already understands his music perfectly. This is one case where the idea of reincarnation pops up in my head.

[japaneseteagarden117]

quite impressive. her parents must be proud.i would like to congradulate them for being able to let their amazing daughter express her talent in accompaning orchestras like this.

[HolyCow3000]

I like what she always wears :P it's..... puffy

[mysonyps3]

Watching her hands on the keys is like watching a "Prima Ballerina Assoluta" dancing in the air. Her fingers, hands, yes even her body seems supended in a trance like motion as they glide so gracefully accross the keys! ...I read Kroneage's comments: and yes you are so right about this beautiful young girl and her extradinary gifts of talent!!!

[kroneage]

Absolutely breathtaking! She exhibits the lucidity the meta-physical connection with the music of Luiza Borac and Rachmaninoff and Horowitz combined into one tiny package! Whoever thinks asians play mechanically needs to watch this! I can't begin to imagine what she will be like in her later years!

[kroneage]

Haha look at that... I'm so awestruck that I can't even formulate my sentences correctly! Hopefully I got my point across though.

[mysonyps3]

She plays like an angel!

[helenxangel]

Thank You for sharing.. it was great ^^

[hobbang55]

she's amazing!!!!!!

[manhae99]

아인아버님 저 만해 입니다. ^^

정말로 놀랍습니다. 제가 별 말은 없어도

꾸준히 지켜 보고 있습니다.

정말 대견하고 자랑스러우시겠어요.

뒷바라지 힘드시겠지만 힘내세요!

나중에 도울 수 있으면 꼭 돕겠습니다.

[maninahole]

i was going to say that

[flowertjeO]

Wow, you're totally AMAZING :D love it :D

[BrucknerEnthusiast]

Remarkable. Played with such good taste - understated, but more expressive than some of the more heavily interpreted versions which we hear from older pianists; indeed, she successfully avoids the interpretative traps which many older pianists fall into. The third movement is also on YouTube and is also well worth hearing.

[edithforrest]

delicate! ******!

[Pianoloverok]

You are great!!!!!!!!

[BarNuun]

Yoon A In Plays ... CHOPIN ... ingeniously and most delicately of all !!! But that is exactly what we like, thank you. Another lucky audience.

[pianogirl98]

Beautiful!
