Zimerman 1975 IX Chopin Piano Competition

[@wonphi]

Mr. Zimerman in my opinion is one of the greatest Chopin interpreters ever. The fact that he grew up in a Piano building family and has the knowledge and understanding of the art of Piano (both creating and playing) really shows and creates an unparalleled performer.

[@John-thinks]

2:00 such a radically different interpretation than that of an older Zimerman. Unique in his enlivening of the tremors in the left hand and the subtle phrased legato in the right hand.

[@sangyongpark2137]

What the.. the last 1 minute was magical. It's sheer genius. I never had this feeling during those passages by the other pianists.

[@barbaramotyka2722]

Ja miałam 18 lat i mu kibicowałam w domu przez telewizor czarno biały agat pamiętam tą radość

[@hannastaszak1684]

Chopin to najpiękniejsza spuścizna dla ludzkości ❤️

[@RomaKubiak]

Jakie cudowne wspomnienia! Byłam tam wtedy jako 13 letnia dziewczynka. Radość nie do opisania :)

[@Ania-xp6rp]

Zazdroszczę Pani, że mogła Pani doświadczyć czegoś tak wspaniałego. To jest historia. Wzruszające jest, kiedy wyczytywane jest nazwisko Zimermana

[@kasiakosecka6746]

A ja pamiętam jak ciocia mi powiedziała , że on tak fantastycznie gra , byłam wtedy zapatrzona w jego fenomen.

[@LaPequenaHada]

I think it's very close to Chopin's own hearing of this concerto. This is how Chopin would have played in our time.Dziękuję, pan Zimerman.

[@kia.hadipour]

LaHadaPequena and how exactly would you think like that?

[@SKubric]

I think he has the best version of Chopin piano concerto No.1 in history. Anyone other play this piece can not touch me so much may be even Chopin himself

[@Numberonesorabjifan]

Belchaz

[@pianohq999]

Definitely agree with you Stanley Kubrick ! 😊

[@zosiazisza2754]

Yes

[@zioromesp4991]

I agree with you.... the best in that piece

[@aliceko4695]

And concerto no.2

[@cjcj6500]

Cudownie grał. Pamiętam też profesora Jasińskiego. Kocham Chopina i wszystkich wykonawców jego utworów. To są Artyści. Miód na nasze polskie dusze. Pozdrawiam serdecznie Pana Krystiana. Wygrana w tym konkursie otworzyła mu, nie okno, a drzwi na cały świat. Brawo!!!! ✌️✌️✌️✌️🍀🍀💖

[@voraciousreader3341]

Isn’t it wonderful, the way the arts can bring people together with such joy and pride for the geniuses of our homelands! Kristian Zimerman is still a renowned genius and has absolutely dictated the boundaries of his career, which is amazing! I love his artistry!

[@MrOlogramma]

Amazing! He is the Chopin's soul

[@Alessandro_da_Rimini]

Greatest interpreter of Chopin ever

[@kingamayer5272]

My favourite version of concert e-moll

[@yvesjodogne1956]

Best (partial) Chopin Concerto No. 1 I have ever heard. Gives me tears almost every time I listen/watch this clip. Even later recordings of the same piece by Zimerman don't have the same inspiration, fire and technical brilliance. I'd give an empire (mine is small I confess) for the entire recording of this piece.

[@yvesjodogne1956]

[@marsza11jm]

I totally argee, "Chopin is everything"

[@DDDrew8]

I just watched a video of him playing Beethoven's concerto #8. He was in white hair and beard. Now this video shows him as a kid just winning the Warsaw competition. I am in a time machine!! hahaha

[@RoberTVShow]

mas beethoven só tem 5 concertos! como pode?

[@carpedei_]

Beethoven agora vive na galáxia NGC 4414 com os reptilianos e já está compondo seu concerto no. 25 em Dó menor na frequência de raios gama.

[@MrInterestingthings]

aint no 8 concerti .5 plus the Choral Fantasy . Why Argerich bothers with it ill never jamais sais!!!

Wspaniały artysta wygladajacy jak Fryderyk Chopin.

[@sonnylinlin4805]

He looks so cute

[@tierzuchtZentral]

Dear Krystian, I will never want to hear someone else playing again... It could never be the same. I am so glad I found you.

[@MrLedZepper]

Well if Zimerman looks like Chopin, then conductor sure looks like a young Paderewski....

[@antekketna7080]

brilliant

[@aliceko4695]

Omg!💗

[@tierzuchtZentral]

I always thought I don't believe in genius, but I'm not sure now

[@trancosomarcus]

He looks like Chopin.

[@federicozimerman8167]

As a Zimerman, he is excellent😀

[@iguarni]

1:48 a young genius is playing!

[@ruslannuriyev]

Judges be like after the performance, "who are we to judge?"

[@JuanRamónSilva-Piano]

How can you judge someone who just lets their whole spirit talk through the music. In that brief instance they become the music itself. So, how can you judge the music itself?

[@KaisarAnvar]

Back when Chopin competition selected authenticity and personality.

[@陳柏安-q5k]

this E minor is incredible...

[@vivaseussonhos]

er ist so handsome

[@freeqwerqwer]

How to get the Slavic feel? Visit Poland or other E.Europe, Russia...and listen to their folkloric songs / dance which are different from chopin's music but....when u listen to Chopin, listen to Ashkenazi play Chopin Etude #4 and nocturnes, Chaimoivich play Chopin ballad 4, Sofronitsky play Chopin ballad 3, Blechacz play the Mazurkas and other small pieces, Avdeeva play ballad 4, Ohlshon or Pollini play chopin concerto 1

[@ekunsa]

Naprawdę grał Brilliant

[@robertdepiano]

Przecież to reinkarnacja Chopina :)

[@ekunsa]

Miałam miałam 11 lat kiedy wygrał też chodziłam do szkoły muzycznej potem po latach widziałam go w Amsterdamie W że go dojrzałego artysty

[@iguarni]

@MrALCOTTS hai così ragione!!! Purtroppo questi geni immortali non ci sono più. Un genio come Beethoven o Chopin sono patrimoni del genere umano e non dei singoli paesi che hanno dato loro i natali.

[@mx19idlewilder]

haha, LOL. you are surely expert on that matter. How many polish pianist did you listen to? And please explain to everyone what is 'polish feel' and how would you characterise it? I'm VERY eager to listen to what you've got to say on that matter. I'm sure you've got a very deep knowledge of polish pianist. Maybe some examples of polish pianists and recordings that have this 'polish feel'? And "pollack" isn't a proper name of someone of polish nationality.

[@diogatus]

What is the name of the second music that he play?????

[@wiktorialatos1157]

Chopin concerto 1

Firstly, I visited Poland, and "Pollack" in the polish language denotes a polish citizen, just as an "American" is someone from the USA.

He looks like Paderewski with that hair

[@freeqwerqwer]

zimmerman plays with somewhat maudlin exageration and doesn't have a native, a polish feel to his playing despite he is a pollack.

[@rafaljurkowski]

fucking racist

[@freeqwerqwer]

Why he was crowned 1st prize in the Chopin Intl' Piano Competition is drop jaw dumbfounding to me. His Chopin is unoriginal, unimaginative, misplaced accents, poor phrasings, and no poetry. Z plays the entire concerto in one breath w/o pause. The man doesn't understand scene change. In his later years his Chopin are so controlled and contrite, saturated with predictable trite phrasings, and frequently maudlin, all of which so much so one is apt to vomit.

[@ritabustamante8447]
