The clarinetist is perfectly fantastic; but the pianist out-shined Gershwin himself. Bravo to you all!!!!

[@flemingcourt]

No disrespect, but without Gershwin, there is no pianist.

[@jpaparozzi]

I know Gershwin’s music better than I know any other composer’s music. He would have LOVED what she did in the middle with that cadenza! He loved it when Oscar Levant interpreted him, and he would love what Maja did. This is my favorite piece of my life, since I first heard it 61 years ago. I am now 66, and I’m smiling because Gershwin would have loved this performance beginning with that incredible clarinet. George Whiteman would have hired her on the spot to play it for the premiere in Aeolian Hall in 1924. I love Poland and its people, having been there four times in five years, and I would go back just to hear this orchestra and Maja play anything!

The clarinetist absolutely kills it! Such a clear tone. Also, I love the way she is looking at the bassoonist during his solo. For those who want to nit pick the pianist, chill. She presented this piece in a way that, in my opinion, Gershwin would have loved. It was unique and frankly, it swung. Huzzah to the director and orchestra!

[@donlibes]

I don't think she's looking unusually at the bassoonist. She's just watching closely. Why not? She really doesn't have much of a view of anyone else. And I agree - her playing is superb.

What a talented young lady she is. If the bios I've read on her are correct, 15 years old at the time of this recording, and has only been playing since she was seven. Eight years is not a long time to come to that level of proficiency. She is amazing, and I'm rather jealous of her. But, you know she's worked hard to get where she is, and for that, I'm proud of her. I wish all of these musicians and long, illustrious and profitable career in music.

Thanks for the video, it was like a blessing!

[@oldgundog4705]
