Lahav Shani plays & conducts Prokofiev Piano Concerto No. 3 | Rotterdam Philharmonic Orchestra

[@itamarbar9580]

I knew lahav is a crazy good conductor, but I didn't know he was SUCH a good pianist!

[@nickhickson8738]

What a virtuosic performance. This lad is certainly very talented and so versatile.

[@erpollock]

Rotterdam Philharmonic is fortunate to have such a virtuoso conductor. He has the qualities of Leonard Bernstein, both musical and as a speaker and explainer, but without the international celebrity that would be unhelpful to a serious musician like Lahav Shani. I have never seen a dual performance of the Prokofiev 3rd Concerto like this. It's a virtuoso pianistic journey, and he conducts the orchestra as well. Every nuance is expressed with a flow of the hand. Bravo!

Glad to see this on this years program again!

[@Highinsight7]

well... this is all rather KICK ASS... Hats OFF to EVERYONE... and BIG HATS OFF to Lahav!

[@CarldeFigueiredo-lf2gc]

Heard this last night at the Proms. You guys were absolutely great and Shani simply stunning, conducting this fiendish piece from the piano. A fantastic evening. Thank you!

[@RotterdamPhilharmonicOrchestra]

🙏 Glad to hear you enjoyed as much as we did!

[@ashleywilkinson3700]

I have heard hundreds of recordings of this concerto, and I am amazed at what I just heard, how completely PERFECT in every aspect... my new favorite recording of this piece. Please do more piano concertos with this conductor playing and conducting this orchestra. Divine!

[@RotterdamPhilharmonicOrchestra]

Thanks for the kind words, we can't believe it either. Shani and our orchestra just performed this in the BBC Proms and the energy was electric!

[@nicolasfaiche3713]

A great and very nice performance. Thanks to maestro Shani and his Rotterdam Orchestra. Dimitri Mitropoulos used to play this 3rd Prokofiev piano concerto, conducting from the piano, in the early 20th century.

Amazing pianist and conductor! Bravo, Maestro Shani

[@Dodecatone]

Hats off to Shani for the astounding feat of soloist+conductor executed marvellously.

[@guillote75]

I can´t believe it!

[@Ronald1960]

Wat heeft Rotterdam toch een geweldig orkest en dirigent/pianist!

[@michaelkamiel3997]

Also the Israel Philharmonic conductor. I saw him conduct the IPO in LA one year ago and enjoyed it immensely.

[@stevenhaff7973]

This is so good. I'm hearing some orchestration elements I hadn't really noticed before. Wonderful!!

[@rolandonavarro3170]

Genial 👏👏👏

[@ЕленаБорисовна-й8з]

Bravissimo!!!

[@WaterFlame957]

This is my favorite concerto of all time. Outstanding work by this fantastic orchestra. I've even heard melodic passages that I had never heard before thanks to everyone being mic'd. 🥰🥰🥰

[@ethanperreault7470]

Same. In the first movement there is this melodic undercurrent towards the end that I had never heard before.

[@yusukeundisolde]

展開部のFg.とCl.が序奏のテーマ吹くところ、じつによくお互いが音を聞き合っていて、なんとも美しい。

[@SehrLukas]

incredible performance, my deepest respect! I also like the staging, interesting idea... but why not take the lid off of the piano?

[@riacooiman9907]

Extreem genoten vrijdag 25 juni in de Doelen. Fijn daar weer een concert bij te wonen.

[@dvandewall5884]

RPHO blijft mijn favoriet orkest. Openlijk kan ik spoedig. weer “life” van ze genieten

[@RotterdamPhilharmonicOrchestra]

We hopen je snel weer te mogen ontmoeten in de Doelen!

[@dvandewall5884]

Super als gewoonlijk

[@lucyalijk1835]
