- Music made in the present moment, unique and unrepeatable, is all that matters to Grigory Sokolov. Critical acclaim and audience ovations underline the humanity and compassion conveyed by Sokolov’s work, reflected not least in reviews that speak of his “genius” and status as a “living legend”. Grigory Sokolov’s charismatic artistry holds the power to cultivate the concentration necessary for audiences to contemplate even the most familiar compositions from fresh perspectives. In recital, he draws listeners into a close relationship with the music, transcending matters of surface display and showmanship to reveal deeper spiritual meaning. His latest release, a double album, comprises a selection of live recordings from three recitals given in the summer of 2019.
Watch Grigory Sokolov perform Frédéric Chopin's Nocturnes No. 2 in A Flat Major, Op. 32, Lento.

I LOVE GRIGORY SOKOLOV !
I LOVE CHOPIN !
I LOVE DEUTSCHE GRAMMOPHON !
I LOVE CLASSICAL MUSIC !
So glad you enjoyed and loved it :)
I really loved this video ! Thank You Deutsche Grammophon ! ❤️
YES. WHY ARE WE SCREAMING. SHUT UP DON'T THINK ABOUT IT
The lackadaisical beginning, the tragic turn, the anger at an unfair world, the sorrow of things lost, the return to peace but with the knowledge that nothing will ever be the same, and a hopeful yet melancholic resolution -- I felt it all in this performance
love the interpretation
To ShinigamoNolka-------
i FELT YOU in Chopin
Going to see Sokolov was the best concert of my life. Living legend, as they say
02:51 I've never heard of such an interpretation. Fantastic!
A not so obvious melody. only a great performer like him can achieve such a performance! Great and fantastic pianist. Thanks!!
I really don't know why, but, this interpretation became one of my favourites off all time in just 5 seconds, amazing. I'm speechless.
Never have I been moved by this piece as I have by this interpretation. Listening to this, I was flooded with emotion and what what I've experienced. This was stunning for me.
A powerful interpretation...
I’ve been trying to find ur channel and you were in the comments. Thx!
@BiblicalyBuffDude Haha we meet again!
@Luke Faulkner You are great too.
You are a very good pianist and what is special about you, you are also a great composer. 👏🙂
Luke I love your interpretation so much. You have one of my favorite nocturne collections for sure, and I love how you play op.32 no.2. Your nocturnes all feel really clean to me. I don’t mean to say they are straightforward but rather they all posses what I love about the music.
Not a single key left without its proper resonance. Wonderful performance.
out of this world!!: i was lucky enough to hear the same recital as the CD (sonata n.3, bagatelles and intermezzi) in bologna last summer. it really felt like he was playing every note for the first time, like he was discovering the music in front of me.
i'm so lucky that this giant likes my town, i've already been able to hear him live 5 times: he's just perfect, with the hands of 25 year-old, the maturity and experience of a master, and the sheer joy in playing of a child.
he's not only one of the greatest pianist to ever grace the instrument, but also the last apostle of the same russian school as Richter and Gilels, no one will ever be able to make the piano sing/vibrate quite like them.
thanks DG for the great quality audio/video, i'd never heard this nocturne played so beautifully.
totally agree, listening to Sokolov (especially live) feels like being back in time, the sound he produces is a miracle more often than not. But hopefully the 'end' of this famous Russian school has not come yet - you should really listen to anything by Alexandra Dovgan. Although only being 13 or so she comes closest in sound, seriousness and 'musicality' to the great maestro. It's absolutely incredible, but actually she was honourfully pronounced by Sokolov himself as a (future) star, so no big surprise. I remember listening for the first time to some Rachmaninov Prelude played by her and I figured it was equal to Sokolovs performance, which really shocked me considering her age. Also her Beethoven is very mature and has no elements of showing off. So I'm very excited about her future and really do hope that she will keep up this attitude and good work...
What could you possibly expect from Sokolov but perfection.....
So many different sounds, phrasing, voicing....what a unique talent. Simply unique in everything he plays.
The way he rings the right handed melody so powerfully over the already powerful left is incredible.
At last, a great man who can play at the desired tempo. This is the best version I've heard.
Speechless, let the music do the talking!
My God I wish I could play like that. It's my dream to play like that.. so free... so natural..
Perhaps Chopin,s best nocturne beautifully played with excellent timing.
SO UNIQUE!! I’ve never heard such a special type of grace put into this piece before! I’m in love
The greatest performance of this Nocturne I've ever heard.
every pieces that play by Sokolov always contain a magnificent and beautiful meanings behind
Couldn't agree more!
Good
Прекрасное исполнение! Григорий Соколов гений
Несколько раз слушала вживую, согласна с Вами, гений и очень скромный человек
Непревзойдённый!!
Que maravilla de pianista.....un genio total....
I have attended today to a concert of Mr. Sokolov in Spain. Great performance!!!
Absolument sublime! Des moments d'une intensité profonde et lumineuse! Bravo!
A remarkable and rare performance at a surprising tempo, not easy to sustain, but in Sokolv's hands a truly unique interpretation of powerful musicianship! Bravo maestro!
Well, what is there to say. He is just superb in everything he plays.
Honestly his intro is the best I’ve heard. I don’t really like his mid section compared to Rubinstein’s. Don’t get me wrong it’s an extremely beautiful interpretation and I like the nuance and the difference in atmosphere he brings, but Rubinstein’s performance for me will always be #1. With that being said this is in my liked videos and will be a performance i will come back to to study when I learn this piece. Truly eloquent phrasing.
What I don't like about this middle section is that it's too slow.
Grigory Sokolov, Martha Argerich, Daniel Barenboim- the last living legends of past era, they are still here.
Все эти прекрасные пианисты,но Григорий Соколов стоит особняком
This is a stunning rendition. Draws all the emotional detail out of the piece. Love the quintuplets leading to the climax. What a great pianist.
Just discovered him today bc i found a comment that said this pianist is similar to yunchan in many ways... and i love him already!
Great interpretation of one of my favorite nocturnes, thanks for uploading this :D.
Glad you enjoyed it!
ゆっくりとしたテンポ。主旋律の音の美しさが際立ちますね。こんな物憂げな曲だったかしら？と思うくらい、いつもと違う曲のように感じました。素晴らしい演奏。
SOKOLOV,THE BEST.
too much beauty to handle
Брависсимо, гениальный исполнитель, музыкант!!!
Best pianist alive. ❤️
This is simply a miracle ... A whole universe that comes to light page after page like a wonderful novel written through a simple ABA structure in just 7 minutes
I wouldn't say it's my favorite approach to this piece, but it's insanely intriguing
Why isn’t he commonly known along the top pianists, such as Kissin, Buniatishvili, Trifonov, Yuja Wang etc, his choice of repertoire, technique and musicality is simply fascinating!
I believe, he is!.
He plays Bach and Schubert really good, but his Hammerklavier is a mess and his newest Mozart is simply not good. Some times ago he played a fantastic "Precipitato" from Prokofiev......His problem is, sometimes he's great, sometimes he's boring....
@@michaelschefold3299 there is no musician, who could be consistent in his/ her performances. As for romantics, Grigory needed to mature and become more sensitive to composers such as Chopin and Schubert. His latest interpretation of Klavierstücke is stupendous.
@Alexander Scriabin I couldn’t agree more!
@@michaelschefold3299 Boring? Guess what? You are boring. You and your total praise of Yuja Wang. I laugh every time I read your "critique" of great, great musicians. But please, keep on writing Good Sir, it's free entertainment for everybody in here.
28/5000
This man is a genius.
I keep a copy of the Nocturnes on my piano. At all times. It is THE 'manual' for any pianist. They change each time you play. That's because they become part of you. You see it here - tortuously in Grigory. This Nocturne is pulling him out of himself. He is performing who he is tonight.
Any Nocturne - but for me all of them ...To choose one - for today..........say....13th in C Min pls.
Thanks for your comment. I must note that I still have a 12 inch 78 rpm shellack record of Horowitz playing three of these nocturnes (RCA, 1950). I played these when I was a little boy and they are unbelievable. They transcend Chopin's notation.
Very light and peaceful and beautifully done with a sweet tender emotion!🎶🎵🌹🎭🎹👍❤️💛🖤
うっとり、聴き入ってしまいました。美しすぎる‼️有り難うございます。🎶❤️
Very powerful & beautiful!
This is soooo beautiful! some parts of it sound like super Mario :)
I beg you for more Sokolov videos please ❤️
His sound is out of this world!
Incredible!
This is beautiful!! 😍
It is - glad you like it!
@@deutschegrammophon I love it! :)
Has he ever performed in the U.S.? I’m in So Cal and would drive a distance to hear him…he’s definitely an iconoclast among pianists (in a good way). I don’t always agree with his interpretive approach to everything he plays, but I always respect it.
Very unconventional, but still powerful and convincing. Fascinating.
This man is an interpretive genius.
Time stands still.
Very soothing and touching ❤️
Ну что тут скажешь....Гений!
Magnífico! É possível se viajar na imaginação dentro desta estupenda interpretação.
Obrigado, Sokolov !
Verdade
Beleza ipnotica
Волшебство!!!
although it's totally different to my favourite interpretation performed by Rafał Blechacz - i really like this one. So calming.
The middle section chromatic chord progressions are out of this beautiful ❤
トリルがすごく綺麗。美しい音。ソコロフさんのノクターン、好きです。
絶対ないと思うけど、日本でコンサートするなら行きたい。
Such an amazing performance...
Best interpretation I've ever heard. Thank you!
So beautiful 🎹🎹🎹
Bravo maestro. Just, remarkable!
In a valiant effort into be musical,the Maestro takes liberty with a slow tempo, especially the middle f minor section. If one compares the 1950's Rubenstein performance, it shows the essential nature of how important tempo is. Chopin should never be dragged. When Maestro Sokolov brings the tempo up a bit it makes a tremendous difference. Of course his interpretation is his own and I must respect it.
i too find myself agreeing with you on the needless slower tempo...
Fantastic Russian pianist ❤
2:25 Sokolov DEMANDS you hear each and every exquisite note
Que pasión! Bravo
Semplicemente una fantastica lenta ma potente interpretazione .
Beautiful
This is so good!
Revolutionary etude
I second this. Or Op 10, no 4.
Mooi gespeeld! Chapeau!👍🎶🎹👌👏
The Nocturne of an insomniac
Ballade 2 or 4!!!
Strong sensitive hands
The best pianist alive
Everyone!
Just beautiful.
Thank you! Cheers!
@@deutschegrammophon Probably my favorite recording of this nocturne actually
The Hegel of pianists.
So clean and precise
surprisingly convincing!
Sublime 😌✨✨
Bravo 🌺
👏
너무 멋지다~!!😄
Pianists play notes, horowitz played phrases, this guy plays whole pieces
superb
Thank you. Greetings from Poland. We stand with Ukraine. Stop Russian atrocities.
In Schumann's other writings about Chopin that exist from 1836 through 1842, there is a good deal of positive feedback, although one will likely glean that Schumann was disappointed that there was not more significant development or innovation. In fact, he said more than once that Chopin's work was instantly recognizable because it was all so similar. He acknowledged Chopin's original showing as fabulous, and worried that it was too much for him to be more than that. "When he has given you a whole succession of the rarest creations, and you understand him more easily, do you suddenly demand something different? This is like chopping down your pomegranate tree because it produces, year after year, nothing but pomegranates." And furthermore: "We fear he will never achieve a level higher than that he has already reached. . . . With his abilities he could have achieved far more, influencing the progress of our art as a whole."In his 1841 review of Chopin's Sonata in B-flat minor in particular, Schumann did not seem to be happy with his fellow composer's progress. Although he talks about the abundance of beauty in the work, he also says that the "sonata" as a title must be in jest: "[Chopin] seems to have taken four of his most unruly children and put them together, possibly thinking to smuggle them, as a sonata, into company where they might not be considered individually presentable." To Schumann it seemed that Chopin had lost his way, and gotten too wrapped up in virtuosity for its own sake. He decries "obstacles on almost every page" with indecipherable progressions. The second movement - again claiming the marking "Scherzo" was in name alone - he describes as a "funeral march with something even repulsive about it."
"A book of Mazurkas by Chopin and a few new pieces of his are so mannered they are hard to stand"-Felix Mendelssohn, 1835
"A composer for one right hand" -Richard Wagner
Other performances of this make it sound like a carnival song covered in sticky caramel apple. Sokolov shows that it's a passionate longing on a hazy summer evening of the bygone carnival.
🥰
3:27 the best bass drop in classical music
와 사랑합니다. 그라모폰
Geniale
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Unsurpassed! I´m quite certain of it!
my favorite nocturne, but in the interpretation by Maria Joao Pires..he seems a bit off here interpretively
A little heavy emphasising the melody
I agree, although some of that is likely down to the piano being played. Very nice nevertheless.
In a hall is perfect, the problem of recordings....
It sounds the resonance from his touch is not reflected in the video
