Seong-Jin Cho - Chopin: Scherzo No. 2 in B Flat Minor, Op. 31

Seong-Jin Cho - Chopin: Scherzo No. 2 in B Flat Minor, Op. 31
Listen to ‘Chopin: Piano Concerto No. 2 · Scherzi’: dgt.link/Cho-Chopin
For his sixth and latest Deutsche Grammophon album, pianist ‪@seong-jincho‬ returns to the music of Frédéric Chopin with his Piano Concerto No. 2 and four Scherzi. The album features these best-loved works in interpretations characterised by thoughtful poetry and youthful ardour. Cho came to worldwide prominence in 2015 when he won First Prize at the Warsaw International Chopin Competition, the first South Korean pianist to achieve this feat. After the success of his first studio album for the Yellow Label, featuring Chopin’s First Concerto and the 4 Ballades, Cho is now realising his wish to follow that release with what he considers to be its logical companion, a pairing of the Second Concerto and the four Scherzi. Both albums were recorded with the London Symphony Orchestra and Gianandrea Noseda.

하늘이 내려준 천부적 재능이 연주자 입장에서는 엄청난 스트레스도 될겁니다...팬 입장에서 당연히 좋은연주, 원하는 곡을 기대할수 있지만 앞으로 음악을 떠나 한 인간으로서 처절하게 고뇌하며 연습하는 그의 모습에 더 응원하고 박수 쳐 줘야 할 것입니다 조성진에게 받은 기쁨만큼 우리도 배풀어야 합니다

[@ysj7241]

저도 공감하는데 천재적인 연주자들은 대부분 그런 정신력도 갖고 있더라고요.ㅎ 저는 성진초에게서 키신이나 랑랑같은 의연한 면을...발견할때 참 다행이다 싶어요. 응원하는 마음은 비슷하지만요.😊

관심 갖고, 음반 사고, 공연 가는 사람들은 이미 잘 베풀고 있다고 봅니다 ㅎ ㅎ

[@COCO_IRISJIN]

처절하게 고뇌하고 연습은 누구나해요 (성진초 같은 천재가 아닌 재능러 파아니스트들도) 그럼에도 불구하고 천부적 재능 가진만큼(성진조) 될 수 없고 그로인한 상대적 박탈감이 더 클거라 생각됩니다. 오히려 성진님은 천재성을 갖고 태어난걸 감사하며 행복한 음악가로서의 삶을 살고 있는것이겠지요. 응원하고 박수치는건 모든 퍄노스트들에게 마찬가지라고 생각하고 저도 조성진님 팬이지만 글 뉘앙스가 다르게 와닿아 생각한점을 남김니다.
