Un artiste incroyable !

[@gabrielmandelas5527]

This performance just makes me realize how amazing Martha Argerich is playing this concerto at her age the way she does. He does not have as much technical easiness as Martha does.

[@friedrich1012]

Es cierto que Marta tiene más recursos técnicos, pero todavía no hemos visto a Marta hacer la integral Beethoveniana u otros ciclos pianísticos y encima dirigir. Marta quizás sea la más grande pianista de nuestro tiempo pero Barenboim es el mejor músico. Un saludo.

A wonderful performance

Zubin Mehta

[@galinaparfenova9187]

Некоторые моменты в исполнении хорошие,иногда странные-Баренбойм (фраза)З.Метта-гениальный дирижер,музыкант!!! Но,слава Богу ,что есть пиано,а некоторые все кричат и кричат, будто что то болит и долбают этот несчастный рояль на 5 форте,не понимая сколько и какие чувства вложил П.Чайковский в эту музыку....Оркестр звучит у З.Метты великолепно.

Believe it or not, the Liberace performance of this on youtube is worth watching

Barenboim recorded this with other conductors and they have all been unmemorable

Daniel Barenboim

[@zarirsethna897]

Zubin Mehta must have been 77 yrs old then.

[@Pogouldangeliwitz]

This was far from good, but way better than I feared it'd be. Even had some interesting moments.

[@estreewamin]

Lmao ‘far from good’ ? Who do you think you are, we’re talking about Barenboim playing Tchaikovsky. Be a good listener and shut up

[@Fanfanbalibar]

You're far from good judgement !

[@Pogouldangeliwitz]

@@Fanfanbalibar You think it's actually horrible? You might have a point there... ☺️

[@dateouka]

Would you please recommend a good version? I don’t know a lot but I am really curious.

[@Pogouldangeliwitz]

@@dateouka There's plenty of good versions. Check for the pianists Argerich, Gilels, Pletnev, Pogorelich, Richter, Solomon, Volodos - to name but a few... Horowitz being a league of his own, obviously (my favorite version of his being the 1953 live with Szell).

[@petergolding5733]

I have just discovered this performance and find it very interesting. When Barenboim first came onstage the orchestra did not look too impressed (he does have a reputation for being a cold and hard man, but I'm surprised it was shown in the video). The performance is 'standard'. As someone said, look at how Argerich performs it then and now (ignore the performances conducted by Barenboim when he was manipulating her performances into something she didn't have to do). Her Pappano/Dutoit etc. performances are perfect - way above this. Interesting that at the end the video focused on his family cheering wildly

[@nonickname5012]

Mehta is a gentleman. Barenboim doesn't matter.

[@donaldforbes3458]

How typical of this great musician that his first gesture was for the orchestra and Mehta.

[@kevinm6790]

Are you referring to the end? If so, this is typical of any soloist to acknowledge the conductor and orchestra first.

[@bigbong620]

Not up to the task. Pretty mediocre performance.
