Yundili Prokofiev-Piano Concerto No.2 in G minor part 2 of 5

thank you for posting this. perhaps my most fav classical piece ever.

Argerich never played the second.

3:24-4:20 - AMAZING

(even though all of it is amazing)

i think that the parts leading up to that one are harder to play then that one itself.

I will try to play the whole concerto on friday in front of my teacher and collegues, of course, accompanied by a second piano.I am very eager, I've never played it, but for me it is very pleasant and fun to play. Love it. Huge, beautiful music , simply breathtaking and amazing....wish me luck for friday!!

i have to say, i agree. She brings a certain style and personality somehow. Note her sway of fingers here and there. Very enjoyable either way. I'm not picky, just particular, lol.

no doubt, the hardest piano candenza yet written

I just heard this concerto played two nights in a row, by two different pianists, at the finals of the Honens International Piano Competition in Calgary! Mind blowing virtuosity, I love it!

Perfect timing! just excellent by it's dramatic content! Super good :)))
