Evgeny Kissin La Campanella

Evgeny Kissin playing "La Campanella"
The Royal Albert Hall, London, August 1997
La campanella (meaning "The Little Bell") is the nickname given to the third of six Grandes études de Paganini ("Grand Paganini Etudes"), S. 141 (1851), composed by Franz Liszt. This piece is a revision of an earlier version from 1838, the Études d'exécution transcendente d'après Paganini, S. 140. Its melody comes from the final movement of Niccolò Paganini's Violin Concerto No. 2 in B minor, where the tune was reinforced by a little handbell.

Legend has it that after the show the piano had sustained considerable water damage; Turns out he actually made the piano cry. He wasn't sweating either, he made his suit cry too.

I'm a classical trained violinist and it amazes me how everyone is an expert with pitch and notes yet, I have yet to see or hear of their performances. Having studied with some of the worlds top violinist I have learned that what one hears on a recording might not be exact not due to the performer, but the engineering. Why can't you enjoy the performance and let everyone else enjoy it?

Because every key on the piano corresponds to a note that is always in pitch, unlike on the violin you people actually have to find the pitch yourself.

Liszt cheated by having abnormally long fingers.

[@jaelob]

MagierMondMax no, chopin's fingers were not unusually long, they were average, perhaps even a bit short

[@MagierMondMax]

jaelob Yes you are right. I think I did missunderstand something about Chopin. But I am pretty sure, that his fingers were really thin.

[@kingfire111]

Actually there is more difficult music out there than Liszt. Check out Alkan for example. Liszt wrote some crazy pieces but they are manageable. I can play this at half the tempo (still working on it) and I am just an amateur.

[@mommydaddy7]

This is my favorite performance of this piece, by far. Mostly because it has something many other interpretations lack; patience. Played extremely fluid and precise (Yeah there was a little slip up in there. Who cares, it's an extremely difficult piece to master, let alone perform). Very beautiful performance, great tempos and dynamics! Love it.

[@jackcarr45]

moistened eel That's quite true, piano keys were a little thinner back then, as we can see when we look at Chopin's piano. As demonstrated by a lovely woman in a video I watched the other week, she could easily reach 12 notes but claimed she could only reach 9 if she stretched on a modern piano. So whether you were claiming Liszt had big hands or not, this is the real story behind the technical complexity of the piece.

I didn't quite believe him so I started listing pieces and he would promptly play short parts of them explaining why they were easy. when I said La Campanella he stopped and said "Now that's a hard piece!" i'll never forgot that story haha.

[@number7213]

3:16 to 3:20 is comfortable through the practice. Though it may not be listenable, 1:25 to 1:40 is actually one of the hardest parts in the song since the right hand has to reach with the first and second fingers then jump an octave higher using the fifth finger. Very hard to play clear and to listen to the top notes, given the speed that Kissin plays it at.

what i really love about kissin is that he always goes all in. never plays it safe. i dont care about a few mistakes here and there - the energy and fire that comes from this risky approach is just second to none. this is how that piece should be played. theres probably not too many pianists that are able to pull it off with that spirit, but even fewer who would be willing to take the risks involved when playing it like that but would rather hide behind the occasional security-rubato every now and then (or, if youre lang lang, all the f-ing time). and as extra bonus: play it like that at the END of a concert as an encore. oh my :-)

Kissin is one of the most elegant pianists around!

[@OfficialKorrupt]

Literally gave me chills. This song is so amazing and he executed it perfectly

[@JramLisztfan]

@@AlexAlcyone honestly the way I see it, if it sounds good, I could care less

[@JramLisztfan]

@@AlexAlcyone yea I get it. I haven’t studied this piece but I’ve heard it many times. Even tho I could hear some errors, I think the overall performance is so much more than obsessing over missed notes

[@nikkicage3502]

Still one of the very best live perfomances ever, leaves me in awe everytimei watch it...

[@chaossspy6723]

He could easily defeat thanos

[@selimkopuz2029]

I ALWAYS come back to this.

[@ChrisCoombes]

4:17 those couple of seconds between playing and applause when he stares at the piano are immense.

[@JamesSmith-mw7ps]

This is probably the best live performance I have heard, and Kissin is one of the finest technicians alive. Despite all this, there are still some flubs in a few passages. This is just to show how insanely difficult this piece is.

[@ALLCAPS]

I was seven months old when he did this. Boy was I glad to be alive when this happened. ;P

[@lukacoremans1214]

3 million views! Still my favorite pianist and best interpretation of this masterpiece!

[@해피뷔데이]

태형이(BTSV) 덕분에 월요일 아침부터 명곡 명연주로 귀호강하네요~

La Campenella: The original "Hold my beer"

[@Kataztrophik86]

The key to being a good pianist is being able to pick up through the mistakes and treat them the same to keep the feeling of the music going. This guy is phenomenal at that

[@SpeakUltimateTruth]

That was utterly captivating. That was the most mistake free run of this song that I have heard at that speed.

[@HairyPotter2006]

Evgeny Kissin is probably the best pianist ever born. Its a machine superb technique. Every note is crystal clear. La Campanella is his masterpiece interpretation.

[@BryantAvant]

I like how each master puts their own flavor in to this masterpiece.

I came here because I saw Taehyung's post and I liked it
