Stripclub Pianist??? THE NEW YORKER by Janet Malcolm " What is one to think of the clothes the twenty-nine-year-old pianist Yuja Wang wears when she performs-extremely short and tight dresses that ride up as she plays, so that she has to tug at them when she has a free hand, or clinging backless gowns that give an impression of near-nakedness (accompanied in all cases by four-inch-high stiletto heels)? In 2011, Mark Swed, the music critic of the L.A. Times, referring to the short and tight orange dress Yuja wore when she played Rachmaninoff’s Third Piano Concerto at the Hollywood Bowl, wrote that “had there been any less of it, the Bowl might have been forced to restrict admission to any music lover under 18 not accompanied by an adult.” Two years later, the New Criterion critic Jay Nordlinger characterized the “shorter-than-short red dress, barely covering her rear,” that Yuja wore for a Carnegie Hall recital as “stripper-wear.” Never has the relationship between what we see at a concert and what we hear come under such perplexing scrutiny. Is the seeing part a distraction (Glenn Gould thought it was) or is it-can it be-a heightening of the musical experience? During the intermission of a recital at Carnegie Hall in May, Yuja changed from the relatively conventional long gold sequinned gown she had worn for the first half, two Brahms Ballades and Schumann’s “Kreisleriana,” into something more characteristically outré. For the second half, Beethoven’s extremely long and difficult Sonata No. 29 in B-Flat, known as the “Hammerklavier,” she wore a dress that was neither short nor long but both: a dark-blue-green number, also sequinned, with a long train on one side-the side not facing the audience-and nothing on the other, so that her right thigh and leg were completely exposed. As she performed, the thigh, splayed by the weight of the torso and the action of the toe working the pedal, looked startlingly large, almost fat, though Yuja is a very slender woman. Her back was bare, thin straps crossing it. She looked like a dominatrix or a lion tamer’s assistant. She had come to tame the beast of a piece, this half-naked woman in sadistic high heels. Take that, and that, Beethoven! ..." @

Great clown!!! The New York Times Review: Yuja Wang, Trying Comedy, Shows How Funny Virtuosity Can Be The pianist Yuja Wang took a break from her typical concerts for a no-less-virtuosic comedy show at Zankel Hall on Monday.CreditMichelle V. Agins/The New York Times By Joshua Barone Feb. 12, 2019 In all seriousness: What can’t Yuja Wang do? This star pianist has built her reputation on breathtaking mastery of the standard repertory, like the chamber works she played last Wednesday with the violinist Leonidas Kavakos at Carnegie Hall. Or Robert Schumann’s Piano Concerto, which she’ll do with the Boston Symphony Orchestra later this week. But in between those two dates, she stopped by Carnegie’s Zankel Hall on Monday for something entirely different: a comedy show. One with music, of course. And, as always, she was radiant in Rachmaninoff and Lutoslawski. But there was - more. She rapped! She sang and danced through a “West Side Story” medley! She did one-legged, upside-down yoga on a piano bench! And along the way, she never lost an ounce of virtuosity.

On the other hand, rule breakers do get more attention. Is she attracting more young people to her concerts and recordings. The industry can’t rely on blue haired ladies alone.

Absolutely ordinary pianist, pulled onto the stage by mafia structures for the sexual entertainment of snotty youths and old libertines! Her videos and interviews multiply at the rate of cholera spread! She filled the entire Internet with her "art" consisting of a half-naked body. We must finally say: enough !!! The Classical Review Wang’s powerful virtuosity stronger on flash than depth in Boston recital May 13, 2018 By Aaron Keebaugh Yuja Wang performed Friday night at Jordan Hall for the Celebrity Series. Photo: Robert Torres ... There is no doubting Yuja Wang’s technique at the keyboard. The Chinese-born pianist is capable of unleashing torrents of octave runs, and her left-hand figures supply an almost orchestral sense of depth and gravity to her sound. She clearly shapes every phrase, and her notes resonate with a ping. ... Still, there were times Friday night when one wondered if Wang only saw some of this music as just showpieces for her mesmerizing technical skill. Her selections of Rachmaninoff Preludes and Études-tableaux, though played deftly, didn’t always flower with the vocal quality so integral to the composer’s style. Wang takes a full-bodied approach to Rachmaninoff, and she renders his textures in multi-dimensional shapes. In the Prelude in G minor, Op. 23, No. 5, her strong left hand figures tethered the march rhythms to the ground. The Prelude in B minor, Op. 32, No. 10 unfolded in Debussyian washes of color. In the Étude-tableau in E-flat minor, Op. 39, No. 5, Wang’s harmonies and bass lines crashed together in blistering clusters. But in each, Rachmaninoff sense of sweeping grandeur went largely unexplored. Three of Ligeti’s Etudes, which filled out the program, were similarly muscular but lacking in probing musicality. Wang’s running chromatic figures blurred into a fog in Etude No. 9, “Vertige,” and in Etude No. 1, “Désordre,” churning Bartókian rhythms propelled the music ever forward. In Etude No. 3, “Touches bloquées,” Wang’s performance needed more of the intimacy that this music requires. Though Wang played the work quickly-as marked-the Etude’s halo-like harmonics, caused by the pianist keeping some of the keys depressed with the left hand while punching out syncopated figures with the right, failed to shimmer. Ligeti incorporated difficult passages into these works not as vehicles for showboating but to create ethereal musical tapestries. And throughout, it seemed as if Wang was playing Ligeti’s notes, not Ligeti’s music. ... The program will be repeated 8 p.m. Thursday night at Carnegie Hall in New York. carnegiehall.org.

@@nordicpiano6592 I'm a big admirer of Ligeti and I probably know all interpretations of his masterworks. Pierre-Laurent Aimard plays his Etudes in a very good way, but unfortunately he lacks a bit of technique. Yuja's interpretation is exactly the way this pieces must be played. "Vertige" for example expresses exactly what the title means! First of all there must be played exactly (!) what's written in the score! And that's unbelievable difficult!

​@@mariodisarli1022 hundreds of years ago no one found the naked human body sexually scandalous. the naked body is the natural human state and it is not sexual unless the gazer sexualizes it. if you think a women is dressed provocatively, it is not her fault but yours. before the spread of the abrahamic religions, pushed forward by sexually frustrated old men like yourself, people had no reason to be ashamed of their bodies. if you get bored of warring against Yuja, Khatia, Lola, and Alice in KZbin comments, you might have a lot of fun on a beach in southern Europe where women have been sunbathing topless for centuries.

[@commanderthorkilj.amundsen3426]

Simulacreage That’s quite a bit of crap you’re preaching. The natural state of a human body, beach attire, etc has absolutely nothing to do w/this. Yuja dresses like a Vegas streetwalker for most of her performances. For classical music venues, weddings, church funerals, etc., proper attire is expected. Women are bitching about males objectifying them, treating them as sex objects, when they often dress to accentuate T&A! Yuja and the female musicians cited earlier are doing this to titillate, and because they are classic narcissists. Get real (instead of being a simulacrum)

[@bloodgrss]

"Mario DiSarli" also goes by the screen name of 'Georges Cancan'. His beef is not with music; he has been here for years harassing posters over his sexist/racist, obsessive hatred of Yuja Wang. He does not like how she dresses and that she is Chinese. A small number of us have found his bipolar troll's funny over the years, but we are now in the process of getting both his channels here banned for this harassment and xenophobic/mysogonistic posting. His troll here is just an echo of his real agenda-but be on the lookout for 'Mario DiSarli' and' Georges Cancan' on future Yuja Wang posts-report him when he is most sexist/racist in troll, and a good idea to mute his channels from making such reprehensible and obsessive comments in future.
