Chopin - 10 etudes op. 10 - Daniil Trifonov

Daniil Trifonov performs Chopin - 10 etudes op. 10 at the Arthur Rubinstein Piano Master Competition (March, 2012, Tel Aviv). Since its inception in 1974, the Arthur Rubinstein International Piano Master Competition is one of the foremost Piano Competitions in the world. Arthur Rubinstein, who gave his blessing to the competition, headed the jury of the first two competitions (1974 & 1977).
The competition, is held every three years in Tel Aviv, Israel.

His articulation!!! My god, this performance is incredible. Every single note.

[@pabloalfonsoechaurren6406]

There is actually nothing special about his articulation in the least. If something is special about it, is precisely his "anti articulation". I'm not saying you can't hear every note, but that's just the starting point. His articulation is generally quite soft and that is one of his main strengths. That's not what's commonly refered to as a "great articulation". Furthermore, you can hear in the 2nd etude, more than a few notes are missing there in the middle part. Might have just been a few mistakes but it seems that it lacks strength in the articulation. Pianists with an unusually great articulation are Zimerman or Ashkenazy for instance, and precisely because of that, they sound very different. I'm not hating on Trifonov at all, I think he's an outstanding pianist and I consider him to be the greatest of the newer generation, but articulation is not something that defines him at all.

[@martinedwards9921]

His playing of the first etude in C major is simply out of this world.

David Xia Technically you are right but Liszt’s style is considered to be more exhuberant than of Chopin

[@atherismagic4639]

Technically brilliant admittedly, but I feel the melody of the accented notes is not quite brought out as it is in performances like Pollini's. Of course, it's a great performance and I could do nothing of the sort, but there is better in my opinion.

[@TedFrancis]

Trifonov makes me smile, gasp, wonder all the way through this. Listening on my own here, I wish I had someone to share the wonder with right now. (It is after 1 am at home after all!) I am in awe. He doesn't deliver one study after another - there's a grand cohesion to his delivery - a real sense of drive throughout. I have played these studies, listened to many a performance of them. The man's a genius.

[@dougr.2398]

[@estelleli7539]

His interpretation of No.3 is my all time favorite. Can never even dream of a better sound.

[@RussellKeatsRivas]

For those of you who can't stand to listen to this amazing performer: get over your emotions! This guy has such an amazing mindset, he knows EXACTLY how to capture one's ear. You guys are just jealous, because he has performed more than you have!!!! His touch is so clean. His emotion is truly there. Why must you hate this guy?!? He is truly an amazing artist!

[@jponz85]

I can stand listening to him no problem but don't say he's the greatest of all time like some people claim him to be. I personally prefer Yundi Li or Kissin, Zimmerman, Volodos, Marc Hamilin, etc etc... over this guy but to each it's own.

[@MusicLover-oe3ig]

Absolutely stunning performance...not only the dazzling technique, but also the nuance of inner feelings: stroke or touch, typically the artist's soul. My eyes were moist because I could hear teardrops from #3!!

[@taymot2131]

THIS is by far the best interpretation of op. 10 nr. 1 I have ever witnessed (till now; ashkenazy, argerich, richter, pollini, etc.). 🙏🙏🙏

[@pedinurse1]

Why does he have so many faces? Because when he is playing he is not on this earth, he is in a serperate place where he is totally engulfed in the music and HE loves it, see the smile on his face, he is living the music, quite amazing

[@beuming1]

[@mariateresaculibuj7634]

[@popqueen77]

Omg.... when he played with the crazy speed from #1, 2 and then to the crazy, super energy sucking #4, with many colors and touches and thought-out sophisticated elaboration, unlike most of the pianist play with pachinko like “force”, I got choked... how could he... He is by far the most incredible pianist of now.... I am so grateful to have him in this world.

[@thethikboy]

What is so moving apart from Chopin's music of course, is to see how in touch Daniil is with every note which he caresses with profound musicianship.

A true affinity for Chopin!

[@etiennedelaunois1737]

Just wow... that's all I can say... That and I have heard many excellent pianists playing all those studies but with Trifonov I just discovered them.🤩 An excellent pianist you are amazed by his/her technic: "what a left hand! Wow the speed is incredible!" An excellent pianist and musician you are just listening. Nothing goes through your head except where the music take you. I listened Chopin's study n2 op25 by Lang Lang. Good recording, amazing technic. While he was playing i was thinking how in control he is and how his technic is flueless. Then youtube recommanded me Rubinstein recorded in Russia. Poor quality, but there I didnt think anything. I was just following Rubinstein. I had the same with Zimmerman. And now Trifonov!

[@JJTownley_Classical-Composer]

I'm shocked at some of the comments here. I was yelling "Bravo" after the first two etudes. I caught very minor missed notes here and there in the 1st, but the 2nd was pristine. I can't imagine the pressure a pianist must feel sitting in front of a keyboard at the start of doing this set in concert. Fortunately, Trifonov has the chops to pull it off. Incidentally, Trifonov is a composer who last year premiered his Piano Concerto in E-flat Minor but a video of it does not exist on KZbin. I wonder if it's ultra avant-gard or more traditional like my own Piano Concerto No 2 in C Minor which IS here on KZbin. Sure wish I could get him interested in premiering it.

I really haven't come across a recording of No 6 that measures up to his, even the Greats like Richter or Horowitz fall short in my opinion (Horowitz's rendition deserves a listen though to hear him play Chopin like Bach there (imho), perhaps to do justice to the grave nature of the piece). However, Trifonov absolutely blows my mind here. Profusely mystical, such deep intelligence and sensibility.

just listen to his op 10 no 1 I don't think richter can touch it because he trifo plays it with such absolute perfection down to the smallest detail at an impossibly fast speed its almost like its not like individual notes anymore its like a whole new level. yeah richters technique was perfect but trifo is more artistic
