Alicia de Larrocha plays Grieg Piano Sonata, Op.7

[@terryp3034]

I love her dynamism and control. She brought an extra punch to everything she played.

[@harryandruschak2843]

I intend to listen to EVERY upload on this channel, starting with the earliest uploads, and working towards the present time. I'm so thrilled to have found a You Tube channel devoted to this wonderful lady. Listen how she makes this "early" work of Grieg sound so mature.

@Nolan Andy I really appreciate your reply. I got to the site thru google and I'm waiting for the hacking stuff now. Seems to take a while so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.

@Nolan Andy it worked and I actually got access to my account again. Im so happy! Thanks so much you saved my ass :D

[@nolanandy4203]

@Saint Gabriel no problem :)

Mme Larrocha brings out all the lyricism and charm in this youthful work, showing Grieg well on the way to finding himself. I heard around 1990 playing this + Soler and de Falla, to a handful of people in Larvik on the South coast of Norway.

Surely the best performance of this masterpiece !!! I can hear harmonies from Grieg's Piano Concerto in the beginning of the second movement...she's a piano goddess !!!

Nuestro orgullo español es nuestra gran pianista Alicia de Larrocha que toca el piano como los ángeles ! En este momento escuchándola estoy como en un paraiso . Gracias gran elección de Sonata !

[@Janaceks_Dad]

I've loved this performance since first hearing it and I listen to it often...if only she had recorded a selection of the Lyric Pieces...apart from "Little Bird" and her ravishingly beautiful performance of "Nocturne", I don't believe she played any of the others, at least not publicly...

[@7pianoforte]

Awesome performance.

[@antoniocorreadeaguiar6780]

Magnifica interpretação. Alicia de la Rocha terá sido uma das maiores pianistas do passado.

[@MrGer2295]

Beautiful piano playing ! Thanks for posting :)

[@edmundbloxam2714]

I've studied and performed this piece. Needless to say, I have listened to many different performances. This is the closest (so far) to how I envision ('envision' for the ears?) the piece to be. Congratulations, Ms. de Larrocha for almost reaching my level. (...!)

Köszönöm az értékelést

My son plays that music wonderful!!!!!

[@pghagen]

Great interpretation! I wonder whether she ever played Grieg's piano Concerto Op. 16

[@net5307]

пока что это лучшее исполнение этих вариаций из всего, что я слышал ранее

[@matteoepis622]

I did not know her... an amazing pianist

[@romanjaviergiordano]

haha a very famous pianist. Perhaps you don't know much about classical music.

[@BurningSky9]

@@romanjaviergiordano At least he is probably opened to learning about it. With this attitude, you (and people with similar approaches) just push away people willing to discover art, you salty, proud and vain baby tape worm.

[@channguyen6781]

wow

[@mikekarren5010]

And I think it's extra special because Grieg was gay.

[@jorgeaguirre7260]

....what? he was not...and what if...? sensitivity has nothing to do with being gay or not.

[@willemboone7912]

Does that make his music more or less interesting??

[@mikekarren5010]

@@willemboone7912 Perhaps, only to gay folks? I would counter, does music composed or performed by str8 people make it better or worse, comparably? For me, the answer is no. But, I like to know as much as I can about the composer, what inspired this particular piece, etc. So I guess for me, the answer to your question is, YES. Everything I learn about the music and the composer makes it more special.

[@xiaohanyu7298]

He had a wife and kids???? And they were happy??

[@shuis7]

@@xiaohanyu7298 They were happy because they listened to this music 😅
