@@Xevyyy tbh, who plays pieces exactly perfect and flawless to the point that every time the person plays the same rep and is the same result every time? Every time a pianist performs the same rep, the accuracy and interpretation varies each time, even the smallest changes. There’s a point of acceptance we give to pianists for their work, and we appreciate them for it, the minimum amount of acceptance in my opinion is 80% accuracy and effort (interpretation isn’t really a grading category as the pianist has his/her view on the approach of the piece), anything lower becomes more questionable, it’s kind of like seeing whether the pianist was really ready, ready enough, or work on it was needed. This example of a slight typo of butter fingers here is the least noticeable mistake an audience would see, what’s more important and I applaud for this greatly would be the recovery, as long as you stick with the piece, this is easy to recover from. small chromatic mistakes like these are actually good opportunities to see how fast the pianist would go back on track if it really was a brain fart, or just “butterfingers”/finger slip. Don’t judge yourself too hard over such minor mistakes, but we do encourage you to minimize it when possible, it’s no big deal, really.

While this is a phenomenal performance, I feel the piano deserves equal praise. That Bechstein has one of the loveliest timbres I've ever heard.

@willgraham88782 жыл бұрын
I totally agree! Bechstein said they completely refurbished and updated everything on their concert pianos in the last 10 years and I can hear the difference! They are now very competitive with Steinway!
@tomowenpianochannel Жыл бұрын
Very woody tone, and yet slightly light.... with a lot of crispness and metallic edge. The Bechstein sounds slightly antique already, a little more like a fortepiano, but with all the power, dynamics and pedal effects of the modern Steinway grand. The treble in particular is amazing, reminiscent of the flute stops on a grand organ. Agree with you!

I fell in love with this piece when I was 10 years old , and it was played in a VERY abridged fashion. This is exquisite; mind-blowingly beautiful. There are very few people in this world who can play like that...Saint-Saens created this amazing piece of music, but without the great talents of those like Vassilis Varvaresos, all would be lost. Thank you both so much. xo
