Schubert - Impromptu No. 3, Op. 90 (Kissin)

[@hanacandelaria1184]

In the 1960s, I had a canary named Sylvester who absolutely loved this piece. Every time I'd sit down to play it, he'd burst into song all the way to the end of it. He didn't react that way to any other pieces. I love this memory.

Kissin plays with such amazing lightness, expression and precision. The pianist channels the essence of Schubert piano impromptus.

I heard another amateur play it well first and took interest. Kissin took it to another level with expression, slow pace and flawless interpretation and execution.

This masterpiece of a video is legitimately a visual representation of one Golden Age illustration.

[@pascalcs]

mette holm it is a simple and yet difficult piece at the same time. To balance the finger strength when touching the keys requires ( at least for me) many many hours of repetition (and frustration). And to control that and the speed at which one plays throughout the piece is another challenge.

Horowitz’ performance of this oh so beautiful Impromptu #3 by Schubert, along with this one by Mr. Kissin are my two favorites with Horowitz beating Kissin by a whisper. But then, it was Horowitz after all. In defense of Mr. Kissin, except for M. Argerich who is now in her 80s, he is by far the greatest living pianist, period. One day, we will look upon his body of performances as some of the greatest and he as one of the top five pianists that ever played in a concert hall.

[@richardbutler9466]

In my honest opinion Kissin is the best living pianist today if I don’t count Martha Argerich because of her age of 80, soon to be 81 in 2022. However, I think I heard Mr. Kissin make a dreadful mistake at about 3:10/3:11 when he play a double key with his right pinkie, I believe. I have listened to it seven or eight times and each time I hear it. Did anyone else hear it or am I dreaming? In all the performances I have heard him play, I have never heard him make a mistake on the keyboard. So, if I am correct, this is a one-off for him. Now, compare his performance to Vladimir Horowitz’ performance from 1988 in Vienna and listen to the two different interpretations. Of course, with Horowitz, there is virtually no body movement, he plays with his usual flattened fingers but curves them when necessary and since he, again in my opinion, the second or third best all time pianist after Rachmaninoff and possibly Gould, his performance is ethereal to say the least. It’s the personification of beauty, love and solemnity all rolled up in one piece. Schubert, who died very young and long before his due date, composed this, the most beautiful composition ever written. Others will say otherwise but you are free to take me with your best shot. POW!

[@mailywong9612]

I went back at 3:10 and heard that mistake too , now I don’t feel that bad when I play this piece and make mistakes , we all know that making mistakes is ok but by pointing it out prove that you listen every note very carefully and you have a very good ears

[@Ozpeter]

It is a split note where a finger just catches an adjacent key. Stuff happens in live performances. Stuff happens in recorded sessions too, but it is edited out, thus creating false expectations in concerts, sadly.
