警笛のようなトランペットすごーい！現代音楽は難解で理解できないが彼はまだ25歳なのにすでにこのような曲を理解しひいていることにむしろ驚いた。やっぱり天才は生まれたときから天才なのかもしれない。

[@BrannonCho]

Absolutely mind-blowing. So proud of you Michi !!

[@michiakiueno1609]

Thank you Brannon!!

[@greghudon4696]

The ability to play something so complicated is amazing. By memory? Omg. How long does a musician immerse oneself into the music So impressive.

[@pianofranck]

I guess this is actually one of the best performances of this concerto.

[@ワタナベタケト]

普段クラシックはもとよりこんな長い曲に聞き入ってしまうなんてことはないのに、この上野さんのチェロ協奏曲だけは何度も聞き入ってしまう

[@skoromoh_]

Superman! What's amazing atmosphere and stage:) It's like in paradise.. Tight performance in cello. I thought it's modern music.. And conductor is very polite! 🇵🇱🧡

[@MonaChisato]

本当にかっこいいね。実に難解だけど、惹きつけられます。楽譜がどんなだか見てみたい。 音楽はホラー映画に使えそう。

[@nattolalala3189]

難解で途中で聴くの諦めそうになったけどだんだんのめり込んで最後はその音楽の中に入ってた。素晴らしいアーティストだと思った。

[@notaire2]

Wunderschöne und spannende Aufführung dieses modernen und perfekt komponierten Konzerts mit mildem doch gut phrasiertem Ton des technisch perfekten Solocellos sowie gut vereinigten und perfekt entsprechenden Tönen der anderen Instrumente. Der dritte Satz klingt echt schön und auch mysteriös. Der intelligente und erfahrene Dirigent leitet das hoch funktionelle Orchester im veränderlichen Tempo und mit möglichst effektiver Dynamik. Wundervoll und atemberaubend zugleich!

[@renioleksardo7537]

It's just a fantastic performance. I was listening with my jaw dropped...

ルトフラスキはポーランドの高名な作曲家で日本でも京都で賞をとっていますが、彼の曲は初めて聞きました．しかも日本人演奏家による演奏で．昔、東京でシェーンベルグを初めて聞き感動したのを思い出しました．

@@oggiekim7280 it's common in competitions. He wants to project his personality to convince the jury with showmanship and charisma - at a higher level then what might be practical in a non-competition setting. Some people might not care for it, but this guy clearly knows how to "play the game" as a competition finalist, and it clearly paid off for him.

[@mikiohirata9627]

As wonderful this whole thing is I can't help wonder what was going on in the mind of composer ? I think of it like schitzofrenic jumble and angst. I don't appreciate contemporary music for this kind of reaction I feel and get. It isn't beautiful anymore. It's like a movie music with hellish images.

[@1233-p5f]

Life isn't all roses and lollipops...the "schizophrenic jumble and angst" comes from the world around the composer. But I hear so much beauty here...

[@karolkarol4489]

Art doesn't need to be beautiful. Art needs to be inspiring.

[@buren5829]

By fault of the concerto, this performace is, to say the least, underwhelming, since it fails to demonstrate the qualities of a first rate cellist. It is irritating seeing Lutoslawski concerto being taken seriously as a piece appropriate enough to evaluate a first rate celist when it is nothing more than some technical excerises strung together on clothesline. The concerto has so much a lack of musical structure, color and phrasing, it is aesthetically repugnant to listen to.

I dont think listening to a piece about the oppressive polish government is going to be comfortable or fun, scary and thrilling tho

[@ISAIAHTheBook]

This is trash. "Difficulty" does not determine "Music". I could compose a difficult piece and make up some rediculous story behind it and the masses would love it as if its "Art". Most "Art" today is a total scam from narc's.
