QUE BONITO TOCAS ESE PIANO, PABLO. TE FELICITO. Y TE DIGO QUE MOZART ES MI COMPOSITOR FAVORITO, Y TU TIENES EL HONOR DE TOCAR ESTE CONCIERTO TAN PRECIOSO.......UNA OBRA DIGNA DE MOZART Y UNA INTERPRETACION DE UN BUEN MUSICO...... FELICIDADES.

[@parencibia]

Muchas gracias a todos por los comentarios. Me alegro de que esta música sea grata incluso para quienes no son asiduos de la música clásica, eso tiene un valor especial. Definitively there are many great musicians in Venezuela, unfortunately many unknown.

[@seduciosantini9289]

Ah, io sono felice...per me e anche per PABLO ARECIBIA! Con questo concerto possiamo sorridere. Ah la felicita'!!!

+Seducio Santini Grazie mille Seducio!!

[@seduciosantini9289]

Di niente, Signor Arecibia! Una buona vita' e buona fortuna con tutti concerti!

Thanks a lot for your comments! Yes, this piano sounded a bit sharp in some areas of the keyboard. In fact, this particular piano is not being used anymore for concerts because it requires major reconstruction. It was a magnificent piano in other times. Rubinstein in person signed it because he was cautivated because of its sound.

Thanks a lot for your comments Lynx48k, they are really encouraging!!! I am happy to see you enjoyed listening.

Hi Michal: This is called a "fermata". It was a very common practice in the classic period to include small additions in certain passages where the music is paused. Improvisation was much more common in the XVIII century than nowadays in classical music. For example, if you look for different versions of the second movement of this concerto, you will find many added trills and other ornaments.

Hello Albert! It's impossible to tell, because the number of hours varies depending on the circumstances from 0,5 to 7 or 8. But yes, I do practice almost every day. I believe it's better to practice 5 minutes every day rather than practice 3 hours just once per week. I hope this answers your question. Thanks for your interest!

Hola Jardinera: ¡Muchas gracias por tus comentarios! Yo tuve mucha suerte con los maestros con los que estudié. Por mencionar algunos: Marisa Romera, César Rangel, Guillermo González y Belén González. De todas formas te invito a visitar mi sitio web donde está la lista completa: Encontrarás el link en la descripción de este video. ¡Gracias! Pablo

@louismagie Thank you for your comments! Practicing a concerto with orchestra is challenging because obviously you don't have the orchestra with you every day but you need to think about the end result when you work in the piano part. One simple thing that helps is to play in the piano some of the orchestra parts while you study so that in your mind you can keep the conceptual continuity. Also trying to play on top of some recordings can give you helpful information. Good luck!

[@parencibia]

Thanks MozartJpn!

[@parencibia]

Thank you for all your comments! I really appreciate them.

[@parencibia]

Humm, not an easy question. I cannot name just one single Mozart piece as my favorite. I love many of them. If we consider only the piano repertoire, I would mention this concert Nr. 21, also Nr. 19, Coronation, The C minor piano sonata... and many others really! :-)

[@parencibia]

Thank you for your comments Pickles and Scott. I feel so happy when I see my playing is transmitting something to others... Yes, it's me playing.

[@parencibia]

Hi, thanks for listening and leaving your comments. I wish you the best and an opportunity to play with orchestra! These cadenzas are the ones played by John O'Conor.

[@parencibia]

@sillysanchez No, I didn't know it. Thank you for the information and your comments!!

[@Shockwave107]

Was this piano competition ? This young man pianist play remarkably well , he has very nice touch ! I am enjoying his music .

[@pabloarencibia6116]

Shockwave107 Thank you very much! This was not a competition, it was my debut with an orchestra back in 2001.

[@parencibia]

Yes, the timing is challenging. That's why if you are able to play on top of different recordings and be able to follow the orchestra, you will feel much more comfortable. Yes, Brahms 2nd Concerto is definitively in my plans but I am not sure yet when it will become a reality. Thank you and thanks to all the other visitors as well, who have left nice comments and even some recommendations...

[@asterix1300]

BRAVO MAESTRO,,, BRAVOOOOOO. MAGNIFICO.

[@scottturner1994]

Excellent, I enjoyed watching this a lot. Is that you playing?

[@flyingsnow918]

WOW your great!! Handsome too /wink. THanks for posting one of my favorites.

[@louismariepicard]

Hi Pablo, Once again it's still a pleasure to hear you playing. I was wondering how do you practice a all concerto with orchestra. Do you have any tips? Thanks again.

[@NoemiSaray]

Que buena interpretación, me parece que tocas excelente, felicitaciones! creo que le pones el sentimiento exacto, suena hermoso, no me gusta mucho el clásico pero este concierto me encanta sobre todo en el minuto 7:55. Bravo!! gracias por tan bella música.

[@piedijon]

Me encanta la energia que das cuando el piano entra

[@hazelssister]

No orchestra or pianist I have ever heard comes close to The Cleveland Orchestra and Robert Casadesus performing this including the way the piano sounds here.

[@telephilia]

Don't think there's anything provincial about this ensemble. Venezuela has one of the most highly developed classical music cultures in the world.

[@mozartjpn137]

Good job!!!

[@domingoghislini1633]

un genio y un virtuoso podra haber iguales pero dificilmente los superen

[@louismariepicard]

Thanks for responding. The major problem I have the timing. When to start etc ... I'll try to upload it soon. Thx again. Are you gonna play the Brahms 2nd concerto soon. I think you said to me that but I'm not sure if it was you.... :)

[@albertsheridan7703]

How many hours a day do0 you practice, and do you do it all the time?

[@parencibia]

Gracias Kgeraci

[@Roseburg93]

I always enjoy the first and third movements of the 21 most. I suppose the second gets over played.

[@skrie]

A very nice performance. I really like your playing. I don't like the piano though... it's too sharp. I'd like to hear you playing it on a more round piano. It's just a personal preference though. :) So, keep it up. I wish I could play like this (too lazy etc etc )

[@harry4241]

very good pianist and orchestra, sorry if I just suggest you to play Mozart a little more softly. you're great, anyway

[@kgeraci]

bueno

[@organboi]

The first note of this cadenza is OUT OF RANGE of Mozart's piano. Not good. Just saying.

[@hazelssister]

This pianist , Orchestra, and piano even though it is a Steinway sound mediocre at best . It is hard to listen to after one has heard the Cleveland Orchestra and Casadeus or Entremont or Ax or Watts etc.,
