“Devotion” and “sensitivity” are the words coming to mind each time when I watch Kate plays - even in her early days of performances, no exception on this one

one of the best live versions of this great sonata. Kate Liu is undoubtedly one of the greatest performers of the new generation, far from being a celebrity of record companies, each of her recitals connect us directly with the music and the true voice of the composer.

The listening of the polyphonic lines is Amazing and there is, in this young and talented artiste I have discovered in Chopin competition, a high sense of spirituality. Love Kate Liu.

I don't know how she's doing it with her lack of mass and heft and weight, but the sound is Brahms and it's awesome. I'm kind of shocked and I have tears in my eyes. This one is the real thing.

It's because volume and tone on the piano is controlled by timing and voicing, which, mechanically speaking, is key acceleration and not how hard a key is pressed; it's all leveraging and not heft.

Is she getting contaminated by the Pogorelich disease? I admire her greatly, as I admired Ivo's early interpretations a lot. For the latter, it has become difficult to the point of not being able to put up with it anymore. With her, I am very worried by what I hear here and at her van Cliburn competitions. I do hope it does not go to the worse. She retains a fantastic musicality.

@mr.fredericchopin62143 ай бұрын
Yeh, what is Pogorelich disease? Is it that you think she is just too dynamic? Too virtuosic? Listen, I am so glad that Kate Liu is that way, that there is a strength and Amazon side like what I hear in this performance. I was concerned that in her playing of the Chopin E Minor Concerto at the Chopin Competition that Kate, from the very start of the solo was too introspective and reflective, that she should have reserved such contemplativeness and intimacy for a later refrain of the themes and rather, she should have come into the solo with more of what I hear her capable of doing here.... the Chopin Concerto is a bigger work than the 2nd Concerto of Chopin, and at its commencement, I feel there is no place for dreaming. I feared that the tiny woman that Kate is did not have the physical power that needed to come along with her uncanny depth and commitment to express a composer. Is Pogberelich disease virtuosity for virtuosity's sake? Seong-Jin Cho, winner of that competition, in contrast, played the same concerto a bit too "big" for my taste. But getting back to her performance here, Kate Liu's playing is glorious! I am glad she has it in her! I want to point out, in contrast, that Yuja Wang is certainly a very fine talent and while I don't underestimate her capacities, she plays everything just too fast, probably on purpose so as to be Horowitzian Reincarnate. When Yuja Wang plays the Turkish Marche, I am aghast that she actually believes that soldiers march that fast. She plays so rapidly, like in the Bizet-Horowitz transcription of Carmen, that there is no room to interpret anything that remotely is reflective or introspective, everything is a bit too shallow because it is all just played at breakneck speed, there being no time for nuance. Kate Liu, on the other hand, is a Titan of the piano when it comes to nuance and probing the depths, searching and searching and sharing what she uncovers with the listener... Oh, Kate Liu may not wear revealing clothes like Yuja Wang, but she is so cute!

I can't believe how right,forceful without feeling pushed or too driven her Scherzo here is . The Scherzo is often played cheap and badly without the needed taste .Liu has a fine sensitivity and asense for architecture ! Always interesting to see what female players do in Brahms supposedly masculine ,august late Romantic era piano music ! Bachauer even tiny deLarrocha,Annie Fischer,dat crazy Nazi but superlative pianist EllyNeywas trecorded in it too,deBruchollerie played the 2nd concerto.Liu is an intelligent creative artist . I hope she will play the 2nd Sonata which though not formally perfect has always been my fave of the 3 .
