I saw this concerto on Nov 4, 2023 played by Thibaudet and conducted by Dudamel with the Los Angeles Philharmonic orchestra. This was by far the best interpretation of this concerto I've heard in my life. Thibaudet was unbelievable and Dudamel was fantastic. Together they brought this piece to such a high level that would make Khachaturian extremely happy and proud. I can't complement enough about this performance, all I can say is that I couldn't stop yelling "Bravo" at the end.

I feel cheated because I’m 40 years old and only really started to explore Khachaturian. I don’t believe his music got a fair shake in the West due to his Soviet ties. Politics aside, I find this concerto exhilarating beyond belief.

Okay, I see everyone praising Thibaudet and rightly so. But what makes this performance great is an outstanding orchestra and a conductor who knows his stuff.

Except that Thibaudet takes a completely different tempo when he comes in. It’s like they never rehearsed, or had different ideas about tempo. Listen carefully. The orchestra is behind the first few measures. I personally like the conductor’s tempo better. I’ve played this Concerto several times. It was the first Concerto I learned in college. I don’t agree that it’s rhythmically complex. It’s pretty straightforward. Nothing like Bartòk 2nd! Not even close in terms of difficulty.

It's so nice to be among so many Khachaturian appreciators. I grew up with Kapell's interpretation and feel it MAY be equaled, but not surpassed. But I am happy when anyone plays it. To me, Khachaturian is very unique. He is the greatest melodist since Tchaikovsky and the greatest counterpuntalist ever. In his music, the themes he uses along with the main themes are exquisite and give the works such emotional depth. Even his orchestration is moving. Vastly underappreciated!

My favorite piece by Khachaturian is his 3rd Symphony. I love the interplay of the organ and the orchestra, it's not something we get to hear very often. And of course, like most Caucasian orchestral music, it has plenty of loud trumpets and plenty of percussion. Giya Kancheli and Avet Terterian are a couple of other really good classical composers from the Caucasian region that are worth checking out.

My brother recommended it. Had never heard it before. Such a masterful concerto and pianist.

I first heard this in 1960 by a friend on her sr. Recital...we were all blown away. But this man is the best!

Tremendously propulsive performance! Fell in love with Kapell's performance on LP when I first heard this concerto at age 14 (63 years ago).

I've never seen a piano player quite as "feeling himself" as this- and I can certainly see why. Magnificent piece! Fun fact: This song is what my grandmother played which attracted her husband, an opera singer, in 1964. What a strange feeling that gives this song...

Thank you Orchestre de Paris and Jean-Yves Thibaudet, for this wonderful concerto. I have listened to this Concerto past 40 years, and this would be one of the best, Thibaudet plays clear, complete, assertive. Thank you again!

I always hope for more performances of this brilliant and beautiful piano concerto, but alas, the Tchaikovsky, Rachmaninoff, and Grieg war horses always seem to get the edge! Oh well, hope springs eternal...... and bravo to Mon. Thibaudet and the Paris Orchestra for a wonderful performance and thanks to 1oo for uploading it!

I agree. I heard this live in Philly and it is spectacular.Definitely needs to be played more along with Saint Saen 5 and 3.

Sort of reminds me of the Reger #2 in it's freneticism, though considerably less disjointed. Simply marvelous! I'm quite partial to the Saint-Saens # 2 , which to me is a minor miracle of composition, though some of its harsher critics deemed it mildly formulaic, even stylistically hackneyed in its day (Erroneously so,, I might add,IMHO!) . I've got a spectacular RCA RED SEAL LP with Artur Rubenstein and Andre Previn with the London Symphony ; on the flip side is MANUEL De FAYA'S "Night's in the Gardens of Spain".

If you want a very nice "modern" concerto, look up the TRifonov concerto...I was absolutely blown away by that one...

I have been putting off listening to Daniil's concerto. I guess I will have to listen to it now. No excuse to ignore it any longer. Thank you Stefan for your comment.

So, this week I learned that, not only did Khachaturian write a piano concerto, he also wrote multiple symphonies, a Violin Concerto & a Cello Concerto. So sad it took me so long to learn about the rest of his amazing works.

The violin concerto is his greatest work, ban his ballets.

Such a deeply emotional performance of this glorious piano concerto. The first movement is so joyful and full of vigor. The second movement Is laced with sadness and beautiful emotional depth. The melody is so heavily influenced by Arabic music yet stamped with Khachaturian's unique harmonic style. The musical saw part adds so much more to the movement. It always sounds to me as if someone's crying and adds so much more to the sadness. Absolutely stunning performance

Khachaturian's music is Armenian totally, not to mess with modern Armenian overrated pop. He is the natural continuation of his great teacher Komitas (kzbin.info/www/bejne/q564ZJ5pZdF-lck).

Excelente! Magnífica interpretación del majestuoso concierto. Tanto la Filarmónica como el gran Pianista se entregaron en cuerpo y alma en la interpretación de esta complicada obra maestra. Felicitaciones!!!
