I remember years ago, like 2 years; I dreamed that Chopin played this master piece in a private concert salon, ohh bud!!!!, there is no performance similar to the one that I heard in that dream, neither the one in this video or anyone else.

I have dreams like this! And it happens with music I've never heard before! As if I composed it in my dreams and it was just flowing out in sound. Every time I wake up from one of these, I don't remember a single motif or note. If anything, I remember the personal impact of the sound on me. Such sounds and emotions I've never thought could be transferred on piano, and nothing was altered on the instrument. It all felt as natural as breathing and could transcend me to places beyond conception when I'm awake. I question it a lot; where does it come from; what is this otherworldly conscious that I can only access when I'm asleep; for some reason when I think too hard on it I start to feel uneasy. I'm just glad that part of me is there. I've hypothesized that when I did in some decent way, I will finally be able to access that world and find answers for myself and it would finally make me feel fulfilled and then I could descend into eternal rest. Even now I get a little restless trying to go back to that other part of me. When I do go there though, I may finally be able to rest.

When I try to play this slow I’m always amazed at Pogolerichs speed in the first movement. And then the perfect draw back in tempo for the second theme. Just lovely!

4:17 am I the only one that feels that Pogorelich played two quintuplets instead of two quarter notes and one triplet (repeated once again)? Regardless of what he played, Prime Pogo still remains one of my favourite interpreters of this piece.

OMG this piece has been my favorite chopin sonata ever since 3rd grade, and I've always listened to this other youtuber who posted the piece played by pogorelich and he was the only person I would listen to, and then I remembered that he deleted that video for some reason, and from then on, I have been listening to Seong-Jin-Cho's performance, but I like this one better because it is very nostalgic. Thank you very much for posting this, I appreciated it greatly!!!

As someone else had mentioned on a previous upload of this performance, I really appreciate the “dryness” that Pogorelich employs in the opening passage. I actually prefer it to some other interpretations of the same passage.

Still can't find a logical reason why Pogorelich didn't win Chopin Competition back in 1980...

You will understand when you see his same interpretation of this sonata in 1980. I suggest you watch it from Max Lima's channel. he makes several mistakes in the first movement and in the scherzo, although the last movement is glorious. this interpretation is magnificent

Because excentric interpretations don't please everybody. Too many people have their standard of "interpreting" a piece of music, aka play exactly as written, only use rubato as the textbook says. Half the jury belonged to these kind of pianists. In the end not the most interesting pianist will win but the one that has the most "perfect" playing as that's the only thing that can be judged on an objective basis. If somebody like Chopin or Liszt, or even the most golden age pianists from the last century like Cortot, Kempff, Arrau etc. would play in these competitions nowadays they would most likely be excluded before the first stage. In other words: Music competitions suck.

@@PianoJFAudioSheet in the case of this pianist, it was not an eccentric performance. the essence of the sonata was totally lost because it added speed to already complex sections. I don't agree with judging based on how perfect a piece is, but there are limits within everything.
@PianoJFAudioSheet2 жыл бұрын
@@jorgegutierreztellez3663 I do agree that there have to be limits. Although I feel like these limits are way too tight today. There is barely any notable difference in interpretation, uniqueness in sound/rubato etc. between pianists nowadays compared to the last century and most probably even more the 19th century.

@@PianoJFAudioSheet that's a downside. however, the fact that the correct notes are played at the correct speed does not make the piece less interesting. I don't know if I spell the names correctly, but Ebgeni Vozanov and Georgic Osokings (Chopin 2010 and 2015 respectively) are clear examples of quite a lot of perfection and innovation. I quote Chopin because he is the one that comes to mind the fastest, but Yuton Sun in Cliburn was innovative in my opinion.
