Evgeny Kissin plays Chopin-Minute Waltz in Db

[@MiltonBalbit]

He always reminds me of Eraserhead by Lynch

[@tonylian2050]

u have a great taste in movies

[@dennis0mus]

no matter what you say, I believe, this is simply another great performance of evgeny kissin... he is either you like it or not the only living pianist with that many awards, and nobody can imitate him.

[@brisonshira2211]

[@수지-y7t]

He's hair style is fantastic and his finger is even more fantastic

[@BANHMIZON]

Beautifully played!

[@timofeygorlov4435]

Bravo!!!! Piano in knock out! Winner is EEEEvgeny Kissssssssiiiiiiiiiinnnnn!

[@kanekokazuko7034]

I agree👍He is miracle‼️

[@gabriel2607]

wow, a very emotional kissin! :)

[@MessianicMTPianist]

Kissin has such incredible technique & polish, and is thrilling to hear, but like all pianist, some performances are better than others. This one tops his performance of the Minute Waltz in Rome on 5//30/07...not just because the recording was more of a "home-made quality", but his phrasing was odd and he sounded somewhat unprepared with what seemed to be an encore selection that he "pulled out of his hat". Even at that, his technique is STILL MAGNIFICENT! as we all know. Katheryne

[@dentalchen4841]

BRAVO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@CLASSICAListheWAY]

Kissin is a beast!

[@kanekokazuko7034]

I agree👍He is miracle🎶💐

[@bistelchung]

Brillante! Bravo!

[@elsaesteves]

Kissin is, to me, the best male pianist alive ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🔝🔝🔝🔝🔝🔝💖🌹🌹🌹💖💖💖💖

[@barthemius1]

bravo. he played very well!

[@MiloSnap]

This is not the "min-it" waltz (as in time) but the my-nute waltz (as in little).

[@danielshaw3628]

We know

[@OmgLoLw2gLuvUidkROFL]

The absolute bestest! lol

[@locosuave5211]

I've never heard anything like it! This is spectacular!

[@alinnman]

Wonderful performance

[@倫理観-j6o]

感動！

[@sissichopin91]

I love this man!

[@kanekokazuko7034]

Me too😍😍❤️❤️

[@lastbornrelic3430]

12 years KZbin brought you back funny thing isnt it time I was 2 then and now I'm speaking to u

[@lastbornrelic3430]

😂

[@ThePrinsessKatie101]

I love the ending!

[@euthanized76]

SICK! His hair is sweet as well.

[@kanekokazuko7034]

Too cute😍💕

[@moshekai2010]

either those 11 people misunderstood "dislike" for "dis i like" or hate really nice hair:)

[@norsusie32145]

The dynamics basically stays in a moderate tone but i like your interpretation

[@zerronyx1362]

@TheTage Show he never does

[@rolandscharenguivel8216]

Yes, I fully agree with you. Listen to him and Martha Argerich play Mozart`s sonata for two pianos in D K448 . They play this beautiful sonata at jet neck speed . When I commented on this , a person replied that I was ignorant of the term - Allegro which he said was FAST I wrote that my music dictionary gave the meaning of Allegro = sprightly, and lively.He claimed that in Mozart`s time all performers played much faster than they do today .

[@t110d93]

Given that youtube wasn't around 200 years ago, how do we know that performers played it much faster?

[@mitaibiru]

when he sits the music comes

[@rosebrentz2378]

Amasing !!!! Wonderful !!!

[@sarahaprincesa]

Meraviglioso 💖💖💖

[@lichkoenig09]

this is how it should be played, the tempo is nice :D probably he thought he must play it in one minute

[@chuanghi]

Lol I just finished playing this and this makes me sound like I’m SUPER slow

[@garfreed]

gave me chills!

[@sirdelrio]

@ksm748 that's because, and i dont know why, it has become a sort of fetish amongst concert pianists to play the 'minute' valse in literally one minute (as if the minute was for time and not for size). i dont know, for them, it's like a race to see who plays it faster or finishes first. 'bloodsports' like glenn gould used to say.

[@ksm748]

@Canonindxxx I agree, this is probably one of my favorite pieces and it definitely sounds rushed

[@lewisliui]

@Canonindxxx well, this piece of chopin was made to be played in a rush, not slowly. that's the reason :D

[@hikarufuego]

how cute... waltz of the puppy...

[@izraulhidashi4323]

That sway he does must be when he's channeling Chopin. lol

[@GuyMannDudeTheOnly]

OMG ! What a great smooth feel ! What piano technique!!

[@norsusie32145]

Rockin the Afro

[@ChoskarChulian]

@Canonindxxx I am a Piano Player myself, I think my limits are a bit above the turkish march (which I can play now :D) and the Minute Waltz. I wouln´t be able to play it that fast, good thing I don´t wanna. But yes, it takes ALOT skill to play THAT fast. What Kissin makes one of my favorites, are his beautiful interpretions such as when to play loud when quiet etc. But I guess even he ain´t perfect as heard in this video.

[@ChoskarChulian]

@Canonindxxx True.

[@lllllllllllllll88]

Was this an encore? Lovely.

[@y1g1tcn]

i suddenly scared when he pushes the note f at the last Db maj gamut :) i was waiting a soft touch like all other pianists do :) it was a wonderful performannce!

[@alinnman]

@sirdelrio It is virtually impossible to play this waltz in one minute, well maybe not technically but musically the result will be a crazy mess. Actually I have never heard it played faster than around 1:30 (and still sounding good). A friend of mine has made a YT recording in 1:15, but it is made as a kind of joke I think.. :) . Music is not a sports game. It requires so much more..

[@daphynesilva818]

😊👏👏

[@AGrogbart]

Hallå alla åttor på Kunskapsskolan Gävle

[@AGrogbart]

😳😳

[@ZyngaPokerManger]

Can anyone please tell me why did he slow down at 3:54 - 3:55?

[@ZyngaPokerManger]

oh i mean 1:54 - 1:55

[@dentalchen4841]

Well,that DID add EMOTION!!!!!!!!!!!

[@mmoon9473]

Will listen that is a musical idea And it adds emotion And makes this waltz Not just Chopin's waltz but Evgeny kissins waltz

[@silfidecontemporanea]

@Canonindxxx it is not oddly rushed. don't worry.

[@ChoskarChulian]

@Canonindxxx Kissins Performances are normally my favorite and if I understand you right, you think he played too fast. I agree.

[@Incathealc]

Shirty Shirt lmfao he played at the right tempo. Because in the song you are flying and each measure should actually naturally sound like 1 beat.

[@makidude]

Awesome name.. Kissin.

[@Centario13]

@yonishalom100 I think it was amazing, and just because it wasn't done in !:30 or less doesn't mean he failed. He didn't rush the middle as usual pianist do, he just played it as he interpreted.

[@MegaUtubeacct]

minute was supposed to mean small, or delicate.

[@MessianicMTPianist]

Hopelessdreamer14...It's concentration & every inch of the body being immersed in the rhythm. Have you ever seen a child intently coloring or working on some project? So many children stick their tongues halfway out of their mouths & move them from side to side. That's just some instinctual part of concentration, like furrowing the brow. He's probably singing in his head with his playing & his mouth is moving along to it; alot of us musicians do.

[@shelikesrain]

cudownie

[@TOproFORthis]

@Canonindxxx the piece is suppose to be played quickly.!

[@vampiressxoxmusic]

uhhh~~~ i will watch la campanella videos instead...to give me some dose of goosebumps here~~

[@garfreed]

@pianistas1981 the hair is a metaphor

[@chiverenos]

I've seen a lot of comments on tempo for this peice. My opinion is its a song about a small dog... the faster the tempo the smaller the dog, the more variable the tempo the more confused the dog.

[@bephanie]

FRESH!

[@AaronPetitPiano]

@Ianthe22 oh yeah well watch the Friedman one to the right. And there is a reason it's called minute waltz. 60 seconds man

[@pescadofresco713]

Who else’s teacher is making them watch this

[@lastbornrelic3430]

No1 pure curiosity to me

[@Ianthe22]

@TheAaronPetit Yes. And? Why are you asking me to see the Friedman performance? Are you answering my comment?

[@TOproFORthis]

Wow i didnt know Tom Hanks could play the piano..=)

[@lllllllllllllll88]

TERRIFIC!!! He is soooooooooooooo gooooooooooooooood! Cute too....lol

[@上田陽子-r1q]

🐶飼ったことあるので分かりますが 飛び跳ねて回ります。その様子浮かぶのよね🎼.•*¨*•.¸¸♬🎶

[@lospazio]

What happened at 1:55?

[@趣味ピアノ演奏]

やっぱり凄い

[@kanekokazuko7034]

全く同感です😉👍🎶彼が少年の頃、来日したときテレビで、リサイタルをみて以来ず～っと大好きです🎶❤️😉👍🎶

[@prodeddy30.]

He looks like Tom Hanks

[@kanekokazuko7034]

私も思っていました。実は私だけかと思っていました。

[@salsimon]

i have always believed that the title refers to a minute walze i.e. very small no reference to the speed or total time - such is the English language!

[@masmanwbma]

his bow cracks me up

[@seryrzu]

Why do think that you should tell us about it? Почему Вы считаете что Вы должны это сказать?

[@Ianthe22]

@Canonindxxx rushed?? i think he played this piece rather restrained.. just my oppinion.

[@D12ex]

I wish i didnt hear that video, but heard the playing instead...

[@bsd300d]

I didn't know the guy from kid and play could play Chopin too!!

[@bobbymarcum772]

ag hahahaha haha

[@alexjacobowitz]

Yep. Rushed. Sans doute.

[@zzzzzzzzzz202]

@IntercityAPT that's sounds like rubbish to me, its the minute waltz for gosh sakes!

[@erken]

every pianist has something new in store. You're not Chopin to judge how this should be played.

[@specter290]

YEP, ITS official, kssin is on some hard drugsss pass that shit braaaa

[@JohnDoe-is6ue]

what the hell happened to his hair

[@abigaelgoffaux8801]

What ?

[@konstantin523]

МУЗЫКА ЗАМЕЧАТЕЛЬНАЯ!!! СЫГРАЙТЕ МНЕ ЧАЙКОВСКОГО ПЕТРА ИЛЬИЧА ЕСЛИ ВАМ НЕ ТРУДНО ВАШ КОСТЯ!!!! ПРИ ВАШЕМ ВЛАДЕНИИ ФОРТЕПИАНО Я ДУМАЮ У ВАС ПОЛУЧИТСЯ!!!

[@ImmortalSpecies]

It's too fast for a waltz, but it's within the speedzone Chopin indicated - get your facts right.

[@lenzub]

It may be fast. But its to clear and well played to be "too fast"

[@Zaneta676]

@yonishalom100 Mr Kissin started at 0:13,and finished at 1:59...let me see,that's 1:46

[@brynjarhoff-lr6hw]

I love Kissin…but this is to fast..for me..

[@789armstrong]

Kissin is a musician not an acrobat or clown.

[@NicaMom3]

He plays it beautifully but sounds a bit rushed.

[@xspiritdannyx]

its better faster. you can actually hear a dog trying to chase its tail faster and faster

[@sizzlinfr]

Haha uh. I'm not sure whether to thumb up or down that. O_o ...

[@luigiaiello9607]

tom hanks who plays chopin...XD

[@JapanIchiban]

COOKING WITH DOG!!!

[@alchavezb]

Bad ending.... At the beginning I was impressed..

[@bach5861]

Listrn to Rachmaninoff. He is THE BEST!!!

[@jwchappy1]

at the begining you should have just got on with it

[@khurmiful]

No harm in interpretations, shouldn't follow music rigidly.

[@buddy11212]

@yonishalom100 the point of minute waltz is to play it under one minute. if you know chopin he liked to have his etudes play as fast as possible... same goes here

[@Delaney-nh8yb]

#petitchien

[@이민서-h6z]

강아지왈츠네ㅎㅎ

[@charlottecreativestudio4889]

He’s as good as Lang Lang if you compare them both

[@chrismackey3228]

okay miss thing

[@seanwang0621]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!! afro man!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@yonishalom100]

@Joshuaf1026 a great pianist can play this piece in 1:30 and still sound less rushed. it's not all about the speed. I think Mr Kissin failed on this one. it sounds to me like a man after a marathon run trying to catch his breath... I prefer Rubinstein or Barenboim's version...

[@JustAnOriginalGuyDoingNothing]

Nice performance, it seams he's quite famous.... But I still wanted to say : "LOL!!!!!" what's with the facial expressions ?!! I know there are pianists who sing while playing, but this guy is just imitating a fish ^_^

[@gcaee]

If you don't like it and it is just not fitting your taste. Not cause it's a awful performance.
