Sonorità inaudite, insperata, timbro unico, tempistica divina. Non cercate altrove sentite la passione, l ' amore per la musica, la suprema padronanza del Genio assoluto: ad occhi chiusi come foste in chiesa in raccoglimento religioso, pensando al volare delle mani sulla tastiera.

Totalmente d`accordo. Nonostante ció, come tutti i Geni, Michelangeli non é per tutti. Per sfortuna o per fortuna. Noi intanto ce lo godiamo per quello che in lui riconosciamo.

Nessuno di coloro che amano la grande musica disconosce la Grandezza di questo immenso artista per il quale provo una sconfinata ammirazione. Cio' detto di immdnsi pianisti la musica ne e' piena.. almeno un cinquantina di quelli che conosco... pertanto non condivido espressioni assolutistiche quali " nessuno come lui, gli altri non sono alla sua altezza " ecc ecc.

@raphaelkreutzer80634 жыл бұрын
Lipatti is unsurpassed he had the best timing (in musical terms) and was even more brilliant in this concerto than Michelangeli, but Michelangeli shows here the most fiery performance I've ever heard. So both are in a class of their own.

This is the 1960's when Michelangeli was overwhelming. The world's greatest other pianists all knew he was the greatest at that time. Listen to (and the video is also available) the Beethoven Op. 111 from 1964. The legendary Prato 1967 performance is still available (it is back on YT as of two weeks ago). This specific performance of the Grieg is impossible, for power, rhythm, strength, drama, and details. Even later sometimes - listen to the Munich April 1985 - he was impossible, unapproachable.

Incomparable, and for those of us lucky enough to have heard and seen him live in the concerts he gave in London in the late 80's and around 1990, life changing events, I assure you.

I went to all his London concerts and recitals during that period save for the Emperor concerto all, save the Beethoven 3 with Tilson Thomas, were extraordinary. I also went to Bregenz and heard him do two Mozart concertos 20 and 25 where he conducted from the piano! sublime!
@jeremyd10216 жыл бұрын
I agree, The Beethoven 3 was not his best. He seemed very detached that evening, like a ghost almost.. You will doubtless recall then during Gaspard, in le Gibet, someone outside the hall must have sent what sounded like 300 glasses or cups crashing from the bar. The audience froze and I was convinced ABM would just walk off stage, but his concentration was so intense I don't think he even heard it, as he did not miss a beat, whereas all in the audience surely skipped several beats of their heart. Every pianist in London would attend these concerts just wishing they had an ounce of his command and charisma and the atmosphere was electric, always. The problem is that such experiences made it almost impossible to go to concerts thereafter. Once you have witnessed the very last stone at the top of the pyramid, everything else palls. The only recital that came close which I am sure you went to was Richter at the Barbican, 3 Mozart sonatas and 12 Etudes of Chopin, a last minute change of program from Bartok, Hindemith and Prokofiev, dispatched in a whirlwind, as he was in a furore that evening

I might add that i was one of many who heartily disliked the cold, aloof, over-controlled performances of ABM, either in London or elsewhere. Same with this ghastly rending; clangy, speed-obsessed, insensitve to phrasing, flow of tempi, Grieg's spacious atmosphere goes for nothing.... ABM has his unconditional admirers, fair enough, but don't assume it's a universal opinion. ABM's reputation for accuracy also suffers a series of blows here. Anyone who continues to hold the discredited view of Rachmaninoff 4th concerto today has lost the right to be taken seriously! Fortunately, l'aigle vole seul....ainsi que ses opinions!

@@kaleidoscopio5 Horowitz once asked Rachmaninoff which Piano Concerto was the Greatest one ever written....Rachmaninoff immediately replied......Grieg’s, !!!!……Rachmaninoff said:...” it has everything, passion, great themes, octaves galore, an amazing Slow Movement and a glorious finale “....and Liszt himself was astonished at the 20 year old Grieg’s accomplishment when he sight read the brand new score ....it’s sad to think that Grieg would write no more Piano Concerti, and just various small and inconsequential Piano Works. Horowitz told me on several occasions that Beethoven didn’t know how to write for the Piano and he Preferred Clementi’s Sonatas to Beethoven Sonatas !…… he gave the Fugue of the Hammerklavier Sonata as an example of terrible Piano writing. I know it’s hard to believe, but Horowitz also had odd taste in Piano Concerti ...He only recorded 1 out of the 4 Rachmaninoff Concerti, 1 out of the 5 Beethoven Concerti, Zero out of The 5 Prokofieff Concerti and Zero out of the 2 Liszt Piano Concerti, Zero out of the 2 Chopin Concerti, no Schumann Concerto..but, I’m sure that his Grieg Piano Concerto would have been Magnificent.

Insane performance. Some utterrly compelling moments, some downright ridiculous ones. ABM must have smoked something dangerously strong before the performance. He is way beyond the speeding limit in some places. On the other hand, it's nice to hear Grieg's Concerto played in a powerful, athletic, no-nonsense way. The work's hardly a masterpiece, but it doesn't deserve the dreamy sentimentalising it is often subjected to. Hilarious to read the spiritual orgasms about Grieg and ABM in the comments.

@@SELMER1947 I very much respect your defence of a musician of exceptional genius. There is always a place for artists with such big egos as they can shine new light on a work. However I feel that he has allowed his showmanship and bombast to dominate at the expense of the music. While there are great moments in this performance, the overall effect is, as I say, too much Michelangeli and not enough Grieg.
