Finals Round Concerto 3 - 2022 Cliburn Competition

[@jerrera45]

You know when a performance is so moving, when the conductor (God bless her) wipes a tear from her cheek at the end. I was wiping away more than one tear. This was more than the finest performance I have ever heard, it was one of the finest moments in music.

[@MJ-kj2bk]

Still breathtaking!!!!

[@pablolinan4910]

Lim wasn't just playing, he was conducting and it became music itself. It is incredible what my ears witnessed, my tears fall down my face.

[@ldldldld8006]

After Lim’s performance, this is no longer a competition but a historical moment. Who cares about the gold at this point.

[@ellaw571]

True

[@Kingminsoong]

[@veritascanto2414]

Just watched Horowitz's performance and I am now scared. This 18 year old boy told a TV reporter that he didn't care much about the gold medal because it wouldn't improve his skillset and he would keep studying and practicing music. A genius, a monster, who devotes all his energy to music and began to captivate humanity was born.

Young Master, Yunchan Lim is an even Beyond Horowitz and became the GOAT with this Remarkable and Historical Performance.

[@jacopocrippa4592]

Lim’s rach 3 is the best interpretation of this concerto that I’ve ever listened to. Personally, I enjoyed it even more than world class famous soloists’ performances such as Horowitz’s.

[@miquelcanosasanteularia1678]

Up there with horowitz as the most enjoyable and distinct

[@miquelcanosasanteularia1678]

I do not know if i can take it over horowitz but is up there with the ones that I have enjoyed the most

[@Dh-uj8pr]

He is so genuine and humble toward music. He said he practices till he collapses because he wants to perfectly express the magma like singing inside him, which he communicated with the original composer. He said music can't deceive so he always tries to have a warm and considerate heart for others and the world

[@jessielee6514]

Yunchan was consistent with his playing throughout the entire competition well deserved winner I think the judges knew way before the final round that Yunchan would be the one to take the gold home as many viewers did also.

[@fusspot57]

Lim's performance of this great and beautiful piano concerto is quite extraordinary. I can scarcely believe someone who is 18 years old can play this piece with such mastery and passion but without arrogance in his performance. I'm not easily moved to tears but this young man achieved this! Quite amazing. I'm so excited to follow his progress.

[@yusouph2002]

Too bad he slowed down that much in the coda (every contemporary pianist does). But overall it's an outstanding performance, maybe can compete with the absolute best renditions by Horowitz and Rachmaninoff.

[@All-iw8ed]

Stephenson's performance of Rach 3 and Lim's performance of Rach 3, as well as the performances by other musicians, are all excellent and each has its own characteristics. But Lim's performance may have attracted the audience's emotions due to the powerful and his unique emotions on the music that maybe relate to his young age. Paradoxically it is unbelivable that such depth of emotions and skills came from the youngest participants but I believe it stemmed from his effort to solely understand this music with his unuqueness together. Just my idea...

[@All-iw8ed]

Yunchan Lim the best! How his body language tell the emotion from the tip of his toes to the tip of his hair make me breathless but my heart is engulfed with joy. It's a romantic interpretation of this piece I really love! Gifted Yunchan plus support of the orchestra and Ms Alsop all perfect combination!

[@snowy4458]

Nop. I think. Younchan was angry until chapter 2. So he decided to be over the tempo, exceed it and getting faster as he wish , conclusion ly, he overwhelmed the whole orchestra even the conductor. Everyone knows if she or he has ears and eyes.

[@snowy4458]

He spirit the stage😂

[@rebeccapianist]

When Lim was playing Rach 3, especially towards the end, he was no longer just a pianist. Felt like his whole being was making music. He could lead the orchestra so well because he listened and played with depth and layers of the orchestration of sound and colors, showing so much maturity as an artist, not a superficial pianist.

I got to see this live a couple of minutes ago. I am speechless. The most clean and effective rendition of Rach 3 by Lim. He will win this competition by a landslide for his performance tonight. After the concert I met him at the stage door exit and was able to get his autograph. When I told him he would win he was so shy and denied what I said. The man is not only the most skilled of these performers, not only the youngest, but also the most humble. South Korea seems to be taking international competitions left and right these days!

I speak as one of the people who got his autograph and talked to him directly at his concert. He was the most humble person I've ever seen. He was a person who did not show off himself and had a heart to be humble in music. His favorite performers are Alfred Cortot, Edwin Fisher, Dinu lipatti, and Youri Igorov. Unlike modern performers these days, he is truly humble in front of music.

[@Sparkle-q5s]

Yunchan Lim, took all of us outside of our bodies for this historical performance. Starting around 2:43 is where he won this. He and Marin Alsop had a connection throughout the entire performance. She played a huge role in him winning. She was feeling everything he was feeling. That is such a rare experience for musicians. but when it happens it is euphoric. BRAVO

(사실 이두분 말고도 8강 준결승 중간중간에 나온 해설자들도 말문이 막힐정도와 단어를 내밷지못할정도로 임윤찬의 연주는 콩쿠루 대회에서나 겨루는 그런 연주가 아니다라는식의 멘트들로 도배함 사실 사회자 포함 이미 겜은 끝났다는 분위기였음.)

I was always a fan of Rach 2 and 4, and have listened to them many times, both live and on video. Rach 3 I could take or leave . . . that is, until this performance. I have lost count how many times I have listened to it - each time as satisfying and thrilling as the last. And I have come to appreciate what an incredible piece of music it is. It takes a technical wizard to feel comfortable enough to improvise and be creative with it, and in the process present to us a vibrant, pulsing, living piece of music. Yunchan has certainly put in the hours, but also his heart, which has touched mine directly, ensuring that I will continue to savour this historic performance. (On a side note, I'm glad he decided on the shorter cadenza here.)

I was in the hall for this performance tonight. Clayton was really great. Ilya's rendition of the Grieg concerto was absolutely beautiful But Yunchan Lim's performance was so incredible intense that I was literally shaky afterward. Breathless. I sat in my seat for a few minutes just trying to wrap my head around what I had experienced. I have been listening to the Rach 3 for 20 years, but I have never heard anything like what Lim accomplished tonight. It's not that it was pretty much technically flawless. It's that there was a passion, ferocity and creativity that I have never heard in any of the recordings. It was great to meet him after the performance as well. Such a humble guy. I feel so lucky that this was my first time to hear the Rach 3 live! Bravo Yunchan. You have my vote for first place! You deserve it.

[@jaygatz4335]

"The old soul gift that he bears", "The power of music" . . . these factors come together in this unforgettable concert that I have viewed countless times. The power and passion that emanate from this humble soul elevate this experience to the highest level. As I watch Lim, he is ageless and accessing an unlimited palette of technique to express the music of the composers he loves. And he is so in tune with the orchestra and conductor, which maximizes the quality of the experience. This performance brings beauty, wonder . . . and gratitude, which in turn is our gift given back to Yunchan.

[@현미-l8c]

원래 클래식음악도 금방 질리는 편이라 같은 연주를 두 번 듣는 경우는 많지 않은데. 진짜 임윤찬 연주는 왜 자꾸 듣게 되는지 이유를 알 수가 없어요. 오늘만 벌써 세 번째 듣고 있어요. 아침에 일어나서 한번 듣고 일할 때 틀어 놓고 듣고 잠자기 전에 마무리로 듣고! 오늘은 결국 다른 콩쿠르 참여자들과 비교해 보려고 세 참가자들의 연주를 다 들어보는 중^^. 솔직히 두번째 연주자도 잘하네요. 그리그 곡도 아주 좋구요. 그러나 임윤찬이 너무 압도적으로 잘해서 운이 없었네요. 임윤찬의 연주가 시작되면 앞의 연주들은 기억 속에서 다 사라져 버리는 마법같은 일이 벌어지네요. 라흐마니노프 곡을 이렇게 끝도 없이 반복해서 듣게 되는 날이 올 줄은 상상도 못했는데.

[@rachmaninoffsergei6720]

임윤찬의 연주는 가늘고 섬세하면서도 강력한 타건과 미스터치 하나 허용하지 않는 정밀함까지 갖췄다. 1악장에 예상외로 오시아 카덴차를 보여주진 않았지만 라흐마니노프가 원하는 그대로의 스케일 진행과 악상을 선보였다. 2악장의 카덴차는 템포, 페달부터 화음까지 가히 가공할만한 수준이라 할 수 있겠다. 3악장은 정말 명반으로 내줬으면 좋겠다는 마음까지 들 정도였다. 피날레전까지 고조되는 분위기와 함께 중간중간에 과하지 않게 넣어주는 A0 건반 디테일까지 새로우면서도 괜찮았다. 2:46:16 피날레 직전부터 시작되는 다운 옥타브 스케일은 여태껏 어떤 피아니스트도 시도하지 않았던 것 같은데 개인적으로 정말 맘에 드는 부분이었고, 악센트와 마무리까지 완벽했다고 본다. 다시 강조하지만 정말 오랜만에 나온 명연주라 호언장담할 수 있겠다.

For me, Yunchan Lim ended the whole competition tonight. He was so in sync with the music, the orchestra and of course this wonderful conductor. I felt his performance, epitomized all that the Cliburn organizers hoped to achieve-to bring great piano music per brilliant young PIANIST musicians to the world. What makes Yunchan stand out more than all the others, for me, brilliant though most were, is his obvious thorough and empathetic reading and mastery of his composers' intentions before he puts fingers to boards .And then of course his wonderful pianism as he plays for us. His abilities, at his age are humbling to any or all of us who have attempted some of the works he performed in playing so securely, insightfully, refreshingly, and often innovatively well throughout the gruelling competition.. Thank you Cliburn all and especially Yunchan Lim.

I rarely listen to classical music until now. It's because people like me, who don't know much about music theory, consider it was their own league-like music that I had to be explained why they should be touched. It was by chance to listen to Lim Yoon-chan's Rach 3 because of his victory in the competition in the news, but as a result, it was the first time that I had goosebumps and tears while listening to classical music. I cannot take my eyes off the whole play of the music, and I cannot feel myself. He broke the limit that classical music. It was no more monotonous music, and he showed the storyline so that even those who didn't know classical music could know where I am, didn't play it just to show how well he played, but became a Concerto itself. He is already an innovator in classical music, and I am honored to hear his play in my 50s, and I am really looking forward to his performance in the future.

Yunchan Lim is a musical miracle. Shivers across my head listening to this. That he is only eighteen years of age is simply incredible. Impeccable technical mastery. He is totally dedicated to the sound of the music. He plays with such passion. It is impossible to define this phenomenon with any accuracy, but it's essentially the sound of the piano when played by someone singing from the heart. That inexpressible harmony between fiery, lyrical romanticism, and clarity of sound. I cannot help but remember how Horowitz played Rach 3 with Zubin Mehta when listening to this. It is just straightforwardly beautiful. He clearly deserves the first prize. God bless Yunchan Lim.

There are two ways to enjoy this performance: 1) Watching the video and witnessing Lim's prodigious technique, collaboration with the orchestra, moments of calm serenity juxtaposed with all-out passion, and the special relationship with the conductor. 2) Listening to the audio without visuals and experiencing the progression and variety of moods, the choice of voicings, the intricate renderings of cadenza and arpeggio passages, and the cohesive vision and control that bring the individual elements together in such a complete and satisfying whole. Both experiences justify Buddy's reaction: "Nothing short of miraculous!"

I had never cried watching competition rounds until Yunchan. Can’t articulate as eloquently as others but it was simple tears of joy from watching and listening to something so beautiful and passionate. His teacher apparently said Yunchan is born to play the piano and I agree. I feel so lucky I found him here on Cliburn

You said it beautifully.

No words... There is no room for words after this musical miracle.

연주가 다 끝나고 가장 열정적인 청중들에게 기립박수 받는 모습이 너무너무 사랑스럽고 예의를 다해 인사하는 모습 보고또보고 입이 자동으로 귀에 걸리게 되네요 3개월째 저녁마다 듣고 잘때도 듣고 진심으로 하루의 피로회복제입니다.

오늘은 된장에 호박쌈으로 저녁을 먹으면서 듣고 있습니다. 일상이 되어버렸어요♡ 출퇴근 길에는 이어폰을 끼고 운전하며 매일 반복해서 듣습니다. 윤찬군도 대단하고 라흐마니노프도 정말 대단하십니다. 20년전 대학시절에 서양음악을 교양수업으로 함께 듣던 친구가 라흐마니노프를 사랑했어요. 그때는 아무리 들어보려해도 도통 안들리더라구요.. 윤찬군 덕분에 클래식을 듣는 새로운 방식을 배우게 된 것 같아요. 좋아했던 교수님들 강의보다 더 생생하고 아름다운 음악 강의같아요. 윤찬군에게 진심으로 고맙습니다.♡

@@simple-zv7ww 저도 듣고 또듣고 이젠 일하다가도 윤찬림 공연실황이 왔다갔다 합니다. 큭큭 심지어는 퇴근하자마자 열일 제치고 음악부터 틉니다. 일에 열정이 떨어질때 윤찬림을 생각합니다. 윤찬림은 하루에 절반이상을 피땀흘려 노력하는데 내가 이래선 안되지 하고 채찍질하는 모토가 되기도하기에 윤찬림은 너무 소중합니다. ^^ 된장호박쌈 완전 군침도네요 꿀꺽 ~~^^

천재가 아니라.. 신이 연주하는듯. 윤찬은 없었고.. 오로지 라흐마니노프만 있었네 말로 표현할수 없는 감동

Yun Chan did take us somewhere higher up. I felt that while he performed for us, he was also given assurance that he is being validated by the great artist of the past. I was just a cheer leader in tears keep saying “Yes, yes, you are absolutely right” especially the last 3 minutes of Vivacissimo. I never did that before even if it was Rach 3.
