Yuja Wang. a Gift from the Gods . (Concertos : Selected Times)

[@aloha2104]

She is certainly a "Gift from the Gods"!..

[@philiphedley862]

In any artistic or sporting endeavour Yuja Wang is the greatest in the world. I'm 75 and have been going to and listening to classical music since I was 15. Yuja Wang is the greatest pianist I have heard among many great artistes..

[@FrancisAccart]

Elle est aérienne, avec la postcombustion de temps à autre, toujours sensible, mais aussi une grande sensibilité…😊

[@joegrant9409]

What is it about this astonishing woman? I just discovered her 2 weeks ago, and I cannot get enough. It is not just listening, but watching her as well. The perfect combination of passion and abandonment, but such a complete technical mastery of the piano that she is in absolute control. I’m usually more jazz and rock oriented, but I have listened to little else since discovering Yuja Wang. I’m just happy to be sharing the planet with this remarkable and talented person!

[@johnps30]

It's beauty. She breathes it out so we can enjoy it.

[@timshank3328]

I know what you mean, Joe. I discovered her 2 years ago, during the pandemic, and felt the same as you. Still do.

[@charlesjack6571]

Couldn't agree more. I feel exactly the same way

[@ryushev2000]

abandonment??? lmfao

[@paultweedley2026]

When beauty, sex appeal, glamour and elite musical excellence fuse it's magical, she's got it and l like you now want to see and here more and more !

[@Ab-vw2sg]

She is the Head, the Heart and the Soul of the Orchestra: her power is total. Unbelievable

[@q1221q]

well it is a piano concerto afterall

[@sayuri_piano]

@@q1221q Well spotted ;-) Nevertheless I think it's significantly much more than what is mandatory for a piano concerto

[@stephenyatesacoustic]

Wang is a force of nature. The virtuosity, the showmanship she has it all. I must confess to being a major fan. To perform such demanding music on big stage with such security and aplomb is impressive in the extreme. And never mind the razzmatazz, the woman is a true artist with a distinctive style of her own. That crystalline tone and classical elegance even in big romantic works.

[@eduardoinke7081]

I couldn’t agree more. Unashamed fan myself.

[@mikecathy3875]

Ineffable !

[@pauliberg3492]

Nothing is impossible for Yuja. She is to performance what Bach is to composition. Truly, a gift to mankind. Thank you Yuja!

[@mihaelaionita6802]

"What a piece of art is MAN" She is the one.

[@sayuri_piano]

"She is to performance what Bach is to composition": I think, you are right, and my perception of this quality of performance couldn't be expressed any better!

[@colinblm1]

I think somehow her passion infects us like waves that radiate from the center, which is she. I saw her in Amsterdam. Her sincerity to the compositions was so crystal clear it range out like the light beams from a lighthouse. Funny enough, I saw Thelonious Monk a couple of times. It was mesmerizing. His music was him, nothing else existed. That is how I feel about Yuja Wang.

[@jsim5933]

If all the concertos composers were here, they wouldn't believe she's a human being. She's out of this world. Amazing!👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@felicededuyo7999]

Thumbelina Wang. Gifted to give gift of beautiful rendition of classical compositions.

[@christiangallion3424]

Adorable et géniale on ne peut que l’admirer

[@Scathingly]

Good grief, Charlie Brown, I am in awe of this highly talented woman! Can't even begin to think of the long arduous hours day in and day out for decades to arrive at where she is today--at the top of the heap. I love the piano, read not a note but on a good day when the stars align in the night skies and the moon is at its fullest, I can play the child's version of Chopsticks forgetting only half of it. She is, as some have coined her, a wonder of Nature--yes, she was undoubtedly born with a proclivity for music--but she's had to work exceedingly hard to attain the recognition she rightly receives today. As for comments about her manner of dress, I don't care if she shows up in baby doll p.js or a potato sack, Sex has been with us for untold eons and I see nothing wrong with the way she dresses. She looks like a jewel and touches all the senses.

[@davchow8124]

It’s all about her playing not what she is wearing. (you are right!)

[@eldergeektromeo9868]

Yuja is an amazing musician, and a pianist extraordinaire. Not only a pleasure to listen to, but a pleasure to watch!

[@carlosortega876]

Sólo le doy gracias a la vida por haber conocido a Yuja Wang.....algo maravilloso....extraordinario....me disocio cuando la escucho y miro....me quedo sin representaciones....sin palabras....y sólo me queda ella....!

[@downpatmusic]

Sound, touch, wide dynamic range, control, clarity, sparkle, musicality, balance, power, lightness, rhythmic, just a few of the words that come to mind.

[@SlawomirKornobis]

Yes, correct. She is a Gift from the Gods.

[@PS-kd1if]

I’m glad she’s a gift from the gods, for she is certainly not a gift from God.

[@Anthony-qn8ox]

Yeah. Yuja crying at the finale of Rach 3 was the same reaction I had. Her passion is evident. Let this crisis end. I need her in my life.

[@Anthony-qn8ox]

@Alizarine Red Ah. I thought maybe someone in the first row was peeling onions.

[@ericleung4313]

definitely, and so itchy!!

[@cornel999]

she's not normally so emotional. maybe there was something in her personal life at the time that affected her. or maybe she's just feeling the music. i've played this a couple of times (in the fiddle section); it's a very powerful piece, hard to not get choked up a bit at the end.

[@willdon.1279]

Anthony, It's rare for her to, but I'm sure she was that time. Unlike me... ie her Brahms 2 Andante and my shirt is soaked...

[@Anthony-qn8ox]

Rusalka Clearly you are in the minority here. Even the conductors disagree with you but thanks for your opinion.

[@frederickgolding1913]

Brings tears to my eyes. How these composers must be thrilled to know that their music is being played to such perfection more than a century after their passing. Yuja never disappoints, not for a fraction of a second. How lucky we are to be able to hear such brilliance and bask in these exquisite performances.

[@antoniocotzia8622]

Insuperabile 🌹🌹🌹😘

[@nickcastle9201]

Cette pianiste me touche à chaque fois au coeur. Au delà de son incontestable perfection technique, elle vit sans ostentation, en toute humilité et avec intensité la musique qu'elle interprète. Il n'y a actuellement pas mieux que Yuja Wang.

[@1027372]

Solo añadir que, en mi humilde opinión, estamos ante la mejor pianista clásica de la actualidad

[@pacosantosVI]

Trifonov

[@Virtualmuzyk]

Yuja is a gift from gods....Just look at her face when performing Piano concerto No3 in D minor...this smile when she starts...completely no stress and stage fright.

[@eubarcas]

Extraordinaria pianista, con un repertorio amplísimo mucha fuerza y grandes dotes interpretativas,es una delicia escucharla.

GOD BLESS YOU MS YUJA WANG. YOU'RE AN INSPIRATION OF THE PRESENT AND WILL INSPIRE THE NEXT AND FUTURE GENERATIONS OF TALENTS. YOU ARE SUCH A VERY ENORMOUS GOD'S GREATNESS. WHEW

[@ICA17887]

I love the freshness and spontaneity of Yuja Wang who has fun like a child playing difficult scores with disconcerting ease, but getting to that level you probably have to work very hard.

[@creandoCOSASdiy]

I fell in love with her playing when she made me cry with her Mendelssohn's 1st piano concerto.

[@eldergeektromeo9868]

I weep, with each piece she chooses to play! She is incredible!

I just found her snd falling in love with her and the piano.

[@valeriysakov1410]

БРАВО ЮЯ!

[@rdgrow]

Very attractive young lady with superhuman talent.

[@leoinsf]

Yuja given her youth is one of the most gifted artists to come out this century. It is amazing how comfortable she is with everything she plays. It is also amazing that there is nothing in the piano literature or concerto literature which hasn't been played by this superb artist. Her technique is amazing and so effortless! She is well able to soar above a full orchestra and do it comfortably! Her youthful beauty is amazing and I do believe she has a long life ahead of her as a concert artist! What more can I say!

[@williammotta6257]

Couldn't have said it better

[@aureltudor5643]

Like any Chinese, Yuja will quickly lose its use value. It will be difficult to return from the business style she currently practices, to a long-term value. Technical skills will never be able to counterbalance European-type sensitivity. Of course, I also understand those who admire her physical presence! That way we don't take into account the moments when she improvises, hard.

[@ccei638]

She is the Goddess of Piano. We are blessed to witness such a beautiful genius.

[@chrisraffen5980]

So incredibly performed as always.Yuja gives anyone who is lucky to hear her play, such inspiration & comfort.

[@jan-pietervanwaasbergen9870]

I am a Dutch classical music junk, I love classical music so much...sometimes friends ask me "where do I start my journey discovering classical music" Now I can say "listen to this!"a good 30 minutes and you have the virus classical music and it is such better virus than Covid 19.

Did you also heard her interpretation of the Schumann concerto? A world class performance from another world, so incredebily beautiful!

[@philipsam8608]

Revised Comment: Being talented, gifted, amazing, wonderful, marvelous, fascinating, prudent along with great wisdom and cleverness, All are contributable to Yuja Wang's uniqueness. (The above two poetic verses are ending with the same 3-syllable rhyme. Grammar can be hidden or even absent in poetry). Among the many awards which she received, The Musical America Artist of The Year 2017 signified not only her exceptional musicality but also her wisdom in light of sharing. Besides her virtuosic performances in concerto and solo recitals, she has played piano respectively with many world-class musicians (most of them had received top awards in Europe, North America, and other nations) such as the famous violinists, cellists, pianists, clarinetist, and creative percussionists. Whenever she plays with peers in the concerts, she appears unpretentiously yielding the stage (e.g. center of attention) to other musicians. This manifests her wisdom in light of sharing.

[@nadezdapatusova8630]

She is the Gift❤

[@karenistalking5774]

The thing about Yuja is that whatever piece she plays sounds like something so refreshingly new and in a big way be it her Kreutzer sonata, her Scarlatti sonata, her Brahms 2, her Mendelssohn 1, her Scriabin sonata, her Prokofiev 5, etc.

[@s.c.1494]

And her Beethovens.

[@sibylleacatos]

La sublime yuja ! 👏👍🌹

[@Norstar8]

Thanks for the beautiful music, Yuja! It was a pleasure to listen.

[@nicholasschroeder3678]

I think she just so obviously enjoys what she does. It's like she's slightly amazed and delighted with these marvelous toys she has--her hands. Of course she's worked like a dog for it, but still, it always seems like she's playing--like in the original kid's sense of the word--and that, more than the dazzling technique, is what makes her so special

[@brianfletcher8064]

Yuja... such impeccable playing - and such a beautiiful girl

[@Joe1935429]

Let us not forget that with all her gifts Yuja has worked hard and long to develop those gifts to a level most of us are not familiar with. She flat out owns Rach 1 and 2 along with many other pieces we are fortunate to have here. She is years from her prime as a virtuoso performer. The commitment, passion, attitude, intellect, humor and love of life we see and feel when she walks out there in that YOWEEE dress lets everyone know we are getting the full treatment, all stops out! She owns us and we love it.

[@US_made_911_terror_and_Covid19]
