Messiaen - Regard de l'Esprit de joie - Yvonne Loriod

[@lalahohoable]

absolut gigantisch....Yvonne Loriot was one of the great pianists of the 20th century. without a doubt

[@pyroprince78]

I can't believe how effortlessly she could play this. And beautifully.

[@sonia_dora]

This is powerfully inspiring. I think I just realised or discovered something important. I can't really express what it is but I feel genuinely enlightened.

[@tous7798]

Une des meilleures pièces de cette oeuvre immense. Et jouée par la femme de Messiaen ! merci !

[@glum_hippo]

Beautiful! I have always enjoyed YL's interpretations, but haven't actually SEEN her play. So thank you for the video component!

[@brunopascaud5221]

...an authentic artist for an authentic composer also. A couple who believed and therefore loved in truth.... Happy Pentecost day 2022 on all over the word !... B

[@stevenmichael3426]

Real music, real creativity, real culture. How wonderful!

[@bernab]

Really wonderful music, with energy, with good melodies...fantastic!

C'est extraordinaire, madame Loriod. Je connais de nombreuses interprétations de cette précieuse pièce, certaines par les élèves du Maître, mais vous en nourrissez chaque instant avec une si rare présence que j'ai l'impression de la découvrir, riche de sentiments, d'intentions, d'émotions nouvelles, et pourtant au plus proche de la partition.

Non ho parole....... est MESSIAEN

[@stapler942]

Messiaen, ten movements into a twenty movement, two-hour piano cycle: "You thought you were safe from an octatonic pseudo-tonal hunting song in 10/16 that sorta resembles ragtime, but you thought wrong!"

[@stapler942]

"...But first, let me warm you up with a plainchant morphed into an 'eastern dance', then hit you with some more of that asymmetric expansions procedure. After the hunting song we'll toy with some church bell harmonics, do a fancier version of that plainchant dance. Round it off with some restatements of the previous motifs. These runs are sure to dazzle your adjudicator at the twentieth-century music slam."

[@danielkearney8799]

Hahahahhaha epic. Pseudo-tonal hunting song 🤣

[@stapler942]

@@danielkearney8799 Pseudo-tonal is the best description I can think of, because technically that passage does proceed from very tonal ideas of tonic and dominant chords and uses a great deal of triads. It's just that the triads are somewhat cleverly derived from "mode 2" which is just Messiaen's notation for the octatonic scale. It even distinctly modulates to a new key, twice. The score indicates "like a hunting song, like the horns" for that section. 🙂

動くメシアン夫人！今初めて視ました！感動しています。 結構アクションが派手なんですね。

[@zamarioijean4736]

Yvonne Loriot, la meilleure interprète de la musique de piano d'Olivier Messiaen, son mari !

[@jiamingyao9930]

Thanks for sharing this treasure!! Do you have more videos about Loriod’s performance?

[@gagaku144]

Hi. I think there are only two excerpts from this work by Loriod. They come from a Laserdisc, now out of print.

[@jorgeisaacgonzalezprieto6590]

Impresionante!!!

[@michaelangell2317]

Just amazing!!

[@hugueshuddlestone780]

Époustouflant...

[@null8295]

she knew how to play a piano

[@oswing]

c'est le moins qu'on puisse dire !

[@null8295]

@@oswing trust me, most pianists don't. They just don't know how to make a piano sing like that.

[@oswing]

@@null8295 nightmare for ordinary pianists ! I like Muraro's interpretations though...

[@marcmurat3776]

Is it in 1985?

Quelle joie...quand ça s arrête!

[@kgroveringer03]

Est-tu fou ou quoi, keum! Cette musique, c’est parmi les pièces les plus importantes de l’histoire moderne. Ta réaction, cependant… totalement non-éduquée et stupide. Casse-toi!
