Silent hill brought me here

Hermoso!!! 👏❤

Die ersten Takte verschlafen. Zu langsam insgesamt und ohne Ziel gespielt. Die Version von Radu Lupu finde ich am Besten

Bravo!!

Sorry, but not a good version. And the piano have to be tuned !

❤❤❤

Every time I listen to this, I think of our special time by the lake...

2:00 how big are her hands to be able to play that tenth without rolling it?? Very impressive!!

Very beautiful. Another wonderful KZbin performance is by Kate Liu, who, incidentally, gave a memorable concert for the Steinway Society several years ago. 😎🎹

Lovely. I recommend Van Cliburn's interpretation also. The late Brahms short pieces, Op. 116 - 119 are among my favorite Brahms pieces and this one is my favorite among them. In places, heartbreaking, esp. after the brief respite in the 2nd half. Why the pause that demarcates the two halves? It's almost as if there's a break in the story, when the narrator says "Some years later...". Wonderful.

I'm here because of Silent Hill 2 Remake

Wonderful

Peace

Absolutely exquisite. Without seeing the pianist or her name, I at first wondered if it was Beatrice Rana, who also pulls more depth and nuance from the pieces she plays than any of my previous favorites.

Silent Hill 2 Remake 🤙

Anyone else here cuz of Silent Hill?

Uauuu

ottima interpretazione. Brava❤

Bravo.

Excellent

Simply wonderful and heartfelt

I have never heard a performance of this piece by a woman. Her version is so much more gentle, airy and pastel than those I've heard by men.

This is so pretty

Beautifully played. Thank you for 7 minutes of bliss. ❤

This woman clearly understands expression, dynamics, musical phrasing, and contrast! Beautifully played!!

Thank you so much🥲🥲

I’ve seen a lot of comments comparing this to Radu Lupu’s version. My thoughts. This is slower than his - creates a greater sense of longing and almost weeping. Radu does a better job of the left hand voicing. He has slightly wider dynamic range, as his pianissimo is so tender. Their takes on the triplet sections are very different. And I suppose this is where it’s controversial. She breaks from the pace with more of a virtuosic take with tempo and power. Radu keeps the dynamism, voicing, and subtlety of the rest of the piece. As a whole, his is therefore more cohesive. But Anna’s version “pops” more in the triplet section. Whichever you prefer is purely subjective.

Anna plays this piece with a depth of interpretation that many pianists miss entirely. Exquisite

W piece

You can practice at my house if you like. I have champagne. 😎

However simple the tune was. Beethoven couldn’t stop playing it himself. He was obsessed with it and played it ever so often…..

Found this piece from watching the “Jesse Stone” movies.

Glorious, truly special!

Actually it is not quite good performance, the session has been broken down and it is not successive.

Lovely, lyrical.

Best performance of this piece without a doubt

YESSSSS!

She's very very good. I think she is gifted--this is a fabulous performance!!

Fabuloso, fantástica interpretacion

tres tres bien bravo !

Ukrainian American, and terrific....

I'm sorry Anna. I wrote a comment drunk. Radu Lupu was an incomparable interpreter of Brahms, but your playing is also beautiful. Don't be angry, I'm ashamed of my stupidity. You interpret Brahms fantastically….

This one is even better..... kzbin.info/www/bejne/nnfOYYmBmLJkpNUsi=KWzKyAVq0KbM5P_V

this is the best recording of this piece that i have found so far. it captures the character of the piece. brava!

The homophonic middle section: what’s the hurry?!

There's hunger, poverty, illness, pain, war and suffering but it is All Good. There's Brahms and there's Anna. Just Beautiful. Peace.

Anna Dmytrenko ist omitting the repeats of bars 82-89 and 90-97. Beethoven clearly wanted them repeated, and why? Because those two 8-bar phrases constitute a minuet (Wikipedia: "the minuet was usually in binary form, with two repeated sections of usually eight bars each."). My interpretation is that Beethoven's imagination is that of a dance with Josephine, and this dance needs the repeats of the typical II:A:II II:B:II form. Omitting them means ignoring the composer's intention, and that ruins an otherwise very sensible interpretation.

Her interpretation of this piece absolutely crushes me. I’ve listened to so many performances of op.118 and felt like many players missed the point. This girl gets it. Her interpretation is both vulnerable and empathetic if that makes sense.
