I have never commented before on an online forum but I've been a professional musician for over 30 years and have adjudicated various competitions around the world. One might do things differently, but this is still sensational piano playing. In a difficult "lockdown" situation her Mendelssohn 1st Concerto with Kurt Masur at the Verbier Festival on You Tube is truly joyous music making. A spectacularly gifted musician just having fun! There's a childlike sense of wonder about it all and a playfulness that everyone I've shared it with just loves. Hope you love it too...

Student recitals at the Curtis Institute in Philadelphia are such an amazing thing because a few times a year you get to see young people who are quite clearly going to be superstars. Great things were expected of Yuja Wang from the time she set foot in Philadelphia. You can certainly see from this performance that she was ready for the world stage. But it would have been impossible to predict her level of superstardom. There's a good argument she's the most important pianist in the world under 40 right now.

You couldn't expect because at the time she was dressing properly. If you listen to that extraordinary Japanese pianist Nobuyuki Tsujii, same age as Wang and same virtuosity, you will hear the difference : incredibly deep understanding and respect of composers ' styles which gives strong emotions to the audience. (And he won the Van Cliburn International Competition in 2009... despite his blindness).

What is going on with people dissing on her here? this lady is a really fine pianist and this was a good interpretation, it's not my favorite but I still acknowledge the sensitivity that she has and Chopin himself said "Put all your soul in it, play the way you feel", and she definitely did that, you might not like everything she did, I didn't like everything she did but I did like a lot of the liberties she took and you have to admit that it has great sensitivity and she plays with passion and you have to respect that because not everyone can play like this, also she is a professional pianist that has been playing her whole life and performed in some of the biggest halls worldwide so she knows what she is doing better than anyone commenting here on KZbin, and she was very young here so this was a fantastic interpretation for such a young age.

C'est clairement une des plus grandes pianistes des années actuelles en devenir. Je suis d'autant plus frappé qu'à cet âge on pourrait craindre beaucoup de vitesse et d'éclats ; pas du tout Yuja révèle une admirable sensibilité et profondeur.

Beauty should not be a factor in evaluating a musical performance! Unfortunately it color's so many people's opinions and adds extra undeserved points to a woman's performance in too many instances. Yuja Want doesn't wear microdresses for nothing. That said I did like her interpretation of this piece and I thought she did a good job. I wouldn't place this performance on par with other world class performers but as has been pointed out she was only 21 so give her a decade and she'll be up there with the rest of them.

+Kataune Miku that's right for those reasoning with their own gut... you recognize them because they say something like "too fast" "too slow", no emotions etc. Nonetheless, there are some unbiased factors that can be used to evaluate a performance, such as coherence in interpretation, phrasing, managing stress moments, ability to exalting and disentangling different voices.. etc. Some factors need expertise in piano technique to understand what passages are more tricky or difficult to render in a certain manner. Anyway, do not be too much critic about critics, music is love so there is also hate. It's not jealousy. If everybody say that all is beautiful it would be pretty boring and meritocracy wouldn't exist. P.S. I'm not criticizing this interpretation!

Detractors here can say she plays too fast, slow down, etc., but I find her abandon here to be electrifying! What I wouldn't give to be able to play this great Ballade like this! Bravo, Yuja Wang!

Yes is, I totally agree that Yuja plays this in an extraordinary way. She succeeds over some musical phrases better than any pianist I have heard play it. This is a sign of an extra-ordinary technique that few pianists have accomplished. In fact if Franz Liszt were here today, one might say she has stolen his shoes-and is wearing them. The blend of her technique and musicology is so fine! I have noticed this in only one other pianist, Martha Argerich. Robert C., Palm Desert CA.

As I look at some of the, shall we say, less than complimentary comments here, I feel that most of the nit picky posts come from those who are convinced they know something real. Having been involved in music for nearly 60 years; both performing and enjoying all over the world countless performers, I will share that it is extremely rare for me to find an artist who is SO talented they move something deep inside me emotionally. It doesn't matter to me about their gender, the instrument, their nationality, or anything else. Yuja Wang MOVES me deeply. She excites me in her technique, interpretation, and approach. It astounds me that she's so young and gives me awesome pause imagining her abilities in the future. I don't claim to be an expert or "highbrow," or anything of the sort. It doesn't matter to me if her instrument is flawless in every way or it isn't because it's utterly irrelevant. Her interpretations playing Chopin are incredible. They don't always fit MY views, but I will point out that everyone sees EVERYTHING differently - it's human nature. What most impresses me is that she doesn't PLAY her instrument, she EXPRESSES on it. I think she's incredibly amazing . . . PERIOD!

If music as it is presented moves you that is a very personal experience. I had the privilege of seeing Ms Wang and found her playing an amazing experience, something I will never forget. For those that have the ability to feel the music in their soul it is a living thing that no other stimuli can equal. As young children in school we were so fortunate to have an amazing music teacher that taught us to appreciate great music. Even though most of us did not become musicians he instilled in us the desire to seek out styles that move us, what greater thing could a teacher accomplish, he changed our lives. I've sought out and witnessed amazing performances throughout my life in many places because of this man. Thank God for great teachers!

As an asian musician(violin) myself, I agree with your comment partly. No one can denied you were moved by Yuja's performance. However, classical music is surely european culture. We have to respect about that. The composers like Mozart and Chopin requires certain study about their style which even european students has to learn. Yuja's Chopin wasn't in that manner. This performance lacked the essence of Chopin. The same reason I don't respect Hiraly Hahn's Mozart. There are so many reasons I can respect American education, but it's not perfect. More specifically, I am not comfortable about her way of feeling the first beat and how to flow rest of the bar. Polish has own sense of rhythm which is so strong. It was big influences to the left hand part's artistry, and right hand part's musical flow in Chopin's work. Chopin used his polish background into the great piano works with his unique elegance. Thoughtful tone choices and articulation also requires to fit Chopin as the same case of Mozart.

I played this piece at 19. It has some pretty hard sections but all of it is conquerable with the right technique. The music is so compelling that it urges one on to work through the most difficult challenges with sheer determination. I think no. 4 at the end is much harder, as well as scherzo 2 and 3. Everyone has their own demons! And if you really want to talk impossible, try Rach sonata 2 or any of the Liszt transcendental etudes or his Snow Drift. Insane!

JDM 104 i find rachmaninoff's pieces in general to be pretty hard, because of how far apart the notes are. And yeah I find fast songs too difficult for me and I'm pretty ashamed of it myself. (Such as Chopin's revolutionary etude.) I've got a lot to work on.

Let Wang criticise her own work. My God, it was absolutely perfect! Maybe I liked Horowitz' interpretation a little more, but that's only because I grew up listening to him as a boy. The world is richly blessed to have her!
