Shostakovich: Piano Concerto No. 2 in F Major II. Andante (Yuja Wang)

[@talie3443]

Her posture is amazing! I slouch like crazy when I play piano.

[@shyne6413]

Какая умница Юджа! Как бережно и нежно передаёт мелодию Шостаковича. Как будто это она сама прямо сейчас сочиняет эту музыку и передаёт нам своё настроение.

[@harryboggon8718]

So Beautiful Yuja you can always move me to tears I love You ❤️

[@julio151171]

❤️ Thank you Mr. Shostakovich

[@trevjr]

If anyone has any doubt about Shostakovitch, here is your proof. I remember getting the score as soon as I heard this and trying to play it. I wanted to feel it under my fingers, I paid a lot years ago for the Preludes and Fugues, so glad to have them. Shostakovitch has great slow movements, 5th sym. is dreamy like this.

[@harryboggon8718]

So Beautiful and I love watching those magical fingers 😍

[@janwever5140]

The first time I heard Yuja playing this Andante I was in tears: it's so beautiful! Thank you Yuja for this marvelous present!

[@Celticcolleen6715]

Light as air. Gorgeous. 💔

[@antonioosorio2040]

Penetrating your soul ❤ beautiful and talented Yuja. Shostakovich a genius.

[@walternicolich895]

One beautiful piece from Shostakovich and Yuja

[@petertee7549]

What a wonderful piece of music - played amazingly to Yuja Wang

[@rodolforealini5556]

Shostakovich, secondo movimento, l'andante ,nel concerto per pianoforte e orchestra. Il brano è stato eseguito da molti eccellenti pianisti. Questo in particolare, dalla incommensurabile bravura di Yuja Wuang, (dove indossa una sensuale mis color acqua marina) è ineguagliabile; lascia sensazioni indimenticabili. Le note del pianoforte, nel pianissimo, impercettibili , con la tecnica dell'esecutrice fanno trattenere il fiato per la bellezza artistica che trasmettono. Non è una sequenza sequenza di note mail silenzio dell'anima di chi ascolta che con estrema delicatezza viene accompagnata da una melodia che con poche note incanta. Un sussurro innamorato, l'amore di una mamma, gli ultimi attimi prima di un addio, i regali di un'anima. Lo si ascolta una infinità di volte.

Bellissimo pensiero

[@michaelschefold3299]

Simply beautiful and always with her usual good taste! Romantic without mannerisms or romanticisms! No silly grimaces or strange jumping up and down on the piano bench like so many other pianists do! It's all about the music!

[@caonexpeguero9984]

I understand when you say mannerisms, but also romanticisms? So... what kind of expressiveness do you prefer? Forgetting what musicologists and historians say, doesn't this music sound romantic? It's very emotional and tender, full of sentiment and heartfelt feelings.

[@ChongQingWu]

I agree "It's all about the music". Anything that diminish this goal is a distraction. This is where Yujia does the best.

[@zuhairbakdoud1360]

Lol

[@cow_tools_]

I agree so much! I really don't appreciate soloists who look like they're getting off to their own playing....

[@beckerhanshermann8372]

So, so, - a half-naked Chinese woman exposes her thighs from ankle to hip, and you say: It's all about the music for her. You don't want to be taken seriously with that, do you?

[@ivannvillanueva6294]

To me this must be one of the most touching pieces that Miss Wang Plays.

[@jeanjohn4981]

music for the soul on a winter morning

[@shin-i-chikozima]

The overwhelming wonderful powerful playing is off the charts, and unrivaled And the beauty and comfort of her performance is immeasurable, and outclassing

[@ivannvillanueva4778]

Beautiful hands making beautiful music

[@marcelregeer8296]

Bellissimo. Fantastique. Incroyable.

[@Rach2988]

Yuja oh my! The gentle touch here ; beautiful, perfect. You show how gorgeous this second movement can be. Thank You

[@har_lov]

so beautiful✨💓

[@antoniofurnari9558]

Bellissimo questo piano concerto di YUJA WANG 👏👏

[@evamartaharbar1403]

Un mimo pa los oídos!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Una genia.

[@kayhighfield1376]

Makes my Soul cry !!! Sublimely beautiful !!

[@george40nelson4]

She plays the piano with great taste when it comes to expression. Delicate but not over romantic or sentimental and lets the music speak for itself.

[@AlfredHervais]

Me has hecho llorar, desde tu primer fraseo, gracias. Sin duda mi intérprete preferida.

[@hammylauw9574]

To begin with I have insomnia, nowww ,tears filling my eyes》 it gets more complicated to fall asleep

[@bronxboy47]

Dancer and choreographer, Arthur Mitchell, choreographed this entire concerto for his dance troupe, and I was privileged to see a performance.

[@ivannvillanueva6294]

Thank You Lady Yuja, you are a very beautiful Lady for Sharing your Music Art and Beauty to the World.

[@zuhairbakdoud1360]

Talent? Beauty? The above are in the eye of the beholder…

[@genghisthegreat2034]

Is álainn go deó an píosa cheól seo, agus teangabháil milis ar na h-eochracha aicí. ❤

[@petermuir7146]

It just get any better than this she looks good & sounds even better

[@walternicolich895]

Truly a beautiful piece

[@antoniofurnari9558]

👏👏👏 YUJA WANG

[@xavierlluisgoicoecheacalve711]

Una maravella musical i quina interpretació mès sensible...cada nota al seu lloc i en el seu moment.

[@annapittin3834]

Magnifique!

[@harryboggon8718]

She’s Wonderful 💘

[@ovidiuionescu3105]

Oh Yuja, the way you are barely touching the keyboard, your fingers floating above it...beautiful Andante rendition!

[@sabicdusan]

Fantastic! ❤

[@walternicolich895]

I MUST OF LISTENED TO THIS MUSIC A DOZEN TIMES ITS CAPTIVATING…..

[@martinforrester8249]

Blissful.

[@ivannvillanueva6294]

By no means not an easy piece , but not the most complex pieces Yuja plays, nonetheless, very complex piece to play with expression and she pours her innermost feelings, i just love to listen with a glass of red wine.

[@Gurci28]

2:22

[@Gurci28]

'Millions of people go out every day to 'navigate' around the world, but they always stop here with a few glasses of white - or red - wine to see and hear Yuja playing… which is great! '

[@Gurci28]

4:44

[@Gurci28]

'As the monk Mark Pentane IV would say: It's unbelievable!'

[@rogerlephoque3661]

Not that I'm complaining, but you have got your liberal use of the word "not" all knotted up in a twist. Not that I am not caring, what?

[@antoniofurnari9558]

Brava 👏👏👏

[@TatTwamAsi]

Interpunctions ... Rests ... are perfect, less is more (I hate this phrase but it suits).

[@cesarmoya2778]

simplemente maravilloso

[@s.c.1494]

Wow, this is fast; I mean the upload. Thank you!!

[@ZosimoLee]

Exquisite.

[@bronxboy47]

This Andante was used to great effect in the German movie "Fox and His Friends".

[@edvardpreklushaj5638]

👏❤️❤️

[@walternicolich895]

AND AGAIN IM MESMORIZED

[@nicolasdelaforge7420]

I've listened to a number of versions. Now I know: it's not just her body... However, is it not a bit metronomical? Or flowing like a river? Skipping along? Shostokovich's son, Maxim, had a different idea of the magnificent piece.

[@rogerlephoque3661]

Knit picker! Go with the flow, Bub...

[@fluteplayer0948]

Is that MTT conducting?

[@dougfreebern2837]

What are the particulars of this concert? Is it available?

[@Andasth]

Sadest song ever?

[@Listenerandlearner870]

Who is the conductor ?

[@georgiepentch]

Michael Tilson Thomas

[@valeriehitier9026]

Je rafolle de cela

[@woodrowclose]

As soon as I saw the masks I turned off. Such a beautiful song does not deserve being muzzled by this nonsense.

[@billymarlene380]

Soon as I saw the masks …….click

[@thierryastolfi889]

C'est idiot mais la tenue osée de la soliste m'a empêché de me concentrer entièrement sur la musique.

[@rogerlephoque3661]

I couldn't agree with you more, monsieur. Quel fromage!

[@prototropo]

The composition, performance and conducting--all near perfect. Really. But the acoustics--or perhaps recording technology?--are mediocre, unfortunately.

[@tweety8670]

マスクは変でしょ。
