Valentina Lisitsa. Beethoven Brahms Schumann Schubert Liszt

[@giuseppebrancato9774]

grazie Valentina, sei una meraviglia di pianista,

[@Paolo62ist]

Dio ti benedica Valentina.

[@iamjane9628]

My god, this is beautiful. My husband and I sat through this entire performance and barely moved. We were transfixed.

[@sharonwilling8837]

Valentina achieves the impossible. I understand that she practices ad infinitum, but only through the Gods could someone of this calibre play this much music by memory in essentially one sitting. Her craft is heaven sent, and we are the lucky ones to be here at the same time as she!!

[@appartement2046]

Your memory and endurance is truly otherworldly!

[@juniorlopes3581]

this presentation leaves me speechless, thank you Valentina for existing, i love you❤

[@named161]

The first time I ever saw her play I immediately searched "Valentina Lasitsa single?" lol...I love the piano but watching her play changed my feelings in a good way

[@freud2253]

She is like no other. Simply amazing.

[@luxyg1163]

Thanks!

[@marie-sandradiamant-berger]

Un grand merci pour toutes ces précisions!

[@jlboul]

Thank you.

[@travisgregoryshumaker2041]

She is absolutely phenomenal! Among the very best, but I like her interpretation and style so much better. She really knows how to feel the emotion while attacking the dynamics, and her memory is mind blowing. I could seriously listen to her all day. I love how she has recorded so much stuff. You can pretty much look up any composer or any song, and there is a good chance she has it recorded

[@tdalman]

Absolutely. I would like to hear works from Alkan by Valentina :)

[@enkilqc]

I was watching this, telling to my self, geez i wish someday i have the chance to see her live. then i see the credit, this show was recorded 5 min away from my house lol! But i will admit in 2014 i didnt know about Valentina, but still its magic to being able to relive such a performance that was recorded in my home town.

[@HelenaWilliams8696]

Valentina gives a delightful performance with such grace, powerful dynamism, vibrant rhythmic, with such humility and inspiration. Profoundly poetic works of LvB, Brahms, Schumann, Schubert & Liszt...

[@rickwilmot9127]

Magic. And the emotion on Valentina's face speaks with the music.

[@alfredpetrossian3036]

Thank you - beyond words.

[@MrInterestingthings]

Her Beethoven really makes sense . Want to hear Les Adieux and op.10 no.3 some day. The last 5 are heaven .The slow movement of tis sonata and the Hammerklavier slow movement are truly some of the greatest music we have ! Her musical logic in Beethoven stands well against brendel Radu Lupu, Skolov and the greatest communicators in this music !

[@tenaflytom]

Valentina, you are a gift from the gods! Your playing is divine and you connect with your audience like no other. May all good things continue to come your way.

[@TiqueO6]

at 58:39 Brahms' internal rhythms, melodies and harmonies are shown fully realized and manifested (literally) by our dear Valentina! The intermezzo 166 #2 really seems to have them as a theme but then again Brahms was all about that and much more. (That's the perfect camera angle by the way at that moment! Thanks to the editor(s)!)

[@tdalman]

Agreed. I'm actually stunned by the Brahms performance. Although I thought I know these pieces well enough, I learned something new. Very interesting - Thanks!

[@hichamallam90]

history will remember you as one of the best whom thier hands touched and plied piano... big respect

[@georgepickett2627]

She is such an eloquent performer that usually leaves me stunned by her wholeness body/mind/spirit in her works.

[@pedrosalinas992]

Extraordinario, principesca, delicada y con el tono exactamente romántico puesto por los señores compositores.

[@ccandiani]

Eres la pianista que más me ha transmitido la música. Maravillosa y mi favorita, ojalá algún día pueda escucharte en Chile

[@elenasturla1772]

MUY BONITO VALENTINA !!!!! FELICITACIONES !!!!!! Y BENDICIONES D. ARGENTINA !!!!!!

[@TonyYouTubeChannel]

Some time ago I was watching a video for a Russian lesson and I heard the most beautiful and touching piece of music. Sadly, my Russian teacher did not know what it was so I thought that I would never in my life know what it is .... then today at 1:14:58 I suddenly heard it and now I will always know it is Brahms Intermezzo Op. 118 no. 2. Спасибо огромное !

[@largemarge1603]

Easily, among my top ten favorite compositions. You may enjoy Romanian pianist Rada Lupo performing Brahms 118:2 in A, the intermezzo. His pacing is exquisite.

[@facundosoria5919]

i cant believe you, youre like some force of the nature, some gift from other world, i never get tired of saying thanks for all that you give us

[@НиколайВасильев-ш2ж]

I'm enchanted by a beautiful music in such a great interpretation. Valentina's perfomances do something to me that most of others don't. They are not received by ears, but by a soul itself. Thank you for your passion and work, Valentina.

[@binhminh417]

Пані Валентіно, чудове, як завжди. Дякую за гарну музику!!! ❤

[@8246NIKI]

Музыка....это другая жизнь! Где нет войн, несчастий и лжи которую я так ненавижу. Спасибо вам Валентина, что вы своими руками, через ноты и клавиши, уносите нас в мир любви и, может быть, счастья которого нам так не хватает. .Music....it's a different life! Where there are wars, misery and lies that I hate. Thank you Valentine that you with their own hands, using notes and keys take us into the world of love and maybe happiness which we have lacked.

[@gkrabbekrabbe]

This is a public forum so I'll keep inside all the expletives I want to utter regarding how good this is. Bless you Valentina. Beauty incarnate

[@federicoferro1410]

Просто, гениально!!

[@Сергей-ш2я3ф]

Сказать просто гениально, значит сильно недохвалить эту пианистку. Я с детства фанат именно классической музыки и переслушал выступления множества самых разных пианистов и исполнителей. на других инструментах.. Слушал и живое исполнение и в записях. Но такой феерической, блистающей, ослепительной виртуозности никогда в живом исполнении не видал. А какое у неё мягкое туше, это просто природный дар. Рояль не стучит и не громыхает как у многих. На фоне Лисицы даже виртуозность Лазаря Бермана меркнет, это просто невероятно, как фантастически безупречно она играет. При выступлении на публике, сыграть так чисто, без помарок сложнейшие произведения, выдержать такое длительное исполнение, своего рода концертный марафон больше двух часов - это подвиг. Причём для самой пианистки это выглядит как пустячок. За таким выдающимся исполнением, кажущейся лёгкостью скрывается изнурительный труд, длительные домашние многочасовые занятия. Мне почему то сразу вспоминается концерт Бориса Березовского в 2002 года в Рок-д’Антероне. Во Франции стояла аномальная жара: доходило до + 40 градусов. Он тогда играл Трансцендентные этюды Листа и это был тоже фантастический по сложности концерт, во всяком случае по чистоте исполнения в невероятно трудных условиях. Но было видно, какой тяжелый физический труд, пианист был мокрый от пота. А Валентина хоть и играет в значительно более благоприятных условиях, однако тоже сложнейшую программу, особенно под конец и даже не вспотела. Блестящая игра, фантастика. Перед этим концертом послушал, как она записала Картинки с выставки Мусоргского и насладился фантастическим звучанием Богатырских ворот. Валентина Лисица просто удивительный по чистоте и размерам бриллиант среди тысяч талантливейших и гениальных пианистов.

[@Highinsight7]

She's NOT only a GREAT, GREAT pianist... but also a TRUE testimony of how to make a career after years of really focused, diligent, determined practicing... and how to make it all happen... BY using YOU TUBE... (all the Chopin ETUDES... and one better then then next!) Hats OFF to Vanentina! a true HERO!

[@TiqueO6]

if you look (i think on her channel) she shares her rehearsal/memorization process in a very long video of her at home preparing for a performance or recording. She's sooo very generous but we need to support her better, sometimes there's a contribution link and if you find it please share it. I'll look shortly and do so if it find it.

[@Highinsight7]

Thanks Tique06....!

[@TiqueO6]

Did you find it? I think it's over 2 hrs long! There are some moments she goes off camera to make some tea or the like, just raw footage!

[@Highinsight7]

[@christinarhee9251]

Wow the program is insane and Valentina you are a monster!! Thank you for such an amazing performance :)

[@jeremybeadleslefthand480]

This is a ridiculous program. So phenomenal that words cannot describe. I used to think that Progressive Metal was the top of the ladder in terms of memorising complex pieces and playing near on perfect, but then I saw pianists like Valentina, Evgeny Kissen and of course the elder greats like Barenboim. I am absolutely in awe of these fantastic musicians

[@ProdigyImprovisation]

As Valentina gets older, you can see the intense emotional feeling she gives for the music of Beethoven like she hasn't done before when she was younger! Only when she gets older, she starts realizing that Beethoven's music is much more deep then any other composer EVER in the world! It's way to serious. Not even her favorite composer, "Rachmaninov" has a chance against the beast!!! Yes, It Shall Be!!

[@kerawelt2008]

Mind blowing. Such Talent.

[@luizamsalgado]

To listen to you is a PRIVILEGE ! Beautiful ! Brava

[@Kneeder2]

A simple observation: While viewing the second time, I noticed how easy it is to be immersed in the moment, as Valentina performs. Anxious feelings melt away, as her radiance disperses dark clouds of past and future thoughts...revealing joyful potentials and grateful appreciation.

What a coincidence! My doctor -- Dr. Vinnie Boombotz, you know him? -- told me I had only a few hours left to live, and I said, Hey, that can't be right! I'm too young and handsome (well, too *young,* anyway) to die! I want a second opinion!! He looked thoughtful for a moment, and then said, Okay: you're *ugly,* too. Now I fill my fast-fleeting final few hours with La Divina Valentina's pianistic prestidigitations, so I can go out with a song in my heart. Vale!

Wonderful depth of expression in the Symphonic Etudes, this work seems talking to me. I heard it some times earlier played by other people, but this one recording is marvellously expressive. I look forward to the recording of Tchaikovsky's piano music, which I have bought now, a Decca recording (Decca stood for me as a cliff of serious love for music - hope it still is!)
