    South Korea I Age 18
    Fort Worth Symphony Orchestra

    RACHMANINOV Piano Concerto No. 3 in D Minor, op. 30
    00:30 I. Allegro ma non tanto
    17:56 II. Intermezzo: Adagio
    28:51 III. Finale: Alla breve
    Yunchan Lim launched onto the international music stage when he was 14. He won second prize and the Chopin Special Award in his first-ever competition, the Cleveland International Piano Competition for Young Artists in 2018. That same year, he stood out as the youngest participant in the Cooper International Competition, where he won the third prize and the audience prize, which provided the opportunity for him to perform with the Cleveland Orchestra. 2019 meant more accolades, when, at the age of 15, he was the youngest to win Korea’s IsangYun International Competition, where he also took home two special prizes.
    Now just 18, he has performed across South Korea-including with the Korean Orchestra Festival, Korea Symphony, Suwon Philharmonic, and Busan Philharmonic Orchestras, among others-as well as in Madrid, at the invitation of the Korea Cultural Center in Spain. He also participated in the recording of “2020 Young Musicians of Korea,” organized by the Korean Broadcasting System and released that November.
    A native of Siheung, Yunchan currently studies at the Korea National University of Arts under Minsoo Sohn. Coming to Fort Worth, he says he is “looking forward to playing in front of the warmest and most passionate audience in the world.”

Anne-Marie McDermott, one of the jurors of VC Competition this year says "I have played Rachmaninov 3rd. Never again. It now belongs to Yunchan". Cliburn webcast co-host and pianist Elizabeth Joy Roe called it a once-in-a-lifetime performance that left her nearly speechless. Many people who love this piece say this is one of the best renditions of this music. Time is not the only factor that determines whether or not a performance is historical. The greatness of the performance itself determines it. It's only my opinion. Thanks for your reply anyway.

    I think what makes Yunchan special is how he manages to attack his way into the orchestra. Like 28:28 - notice the exchange from piano to orchestra. He blends in and out very seamlessly that made you think that the orchestra has been playing with him for years. He grabs attention subtly and gives it away just the same. He then proceeds with the iconic theme after the exchange. His plays are never overwhelming even on the strong parts. Such control and balance. His bravura never intimidates but envelopes the listener with a sense of sincerity and ease. Without unnecessary exaggerated ticks. I believe that Yunchan performs not to feed his ego but to play only for the sake of immaculate music making and nothing else. This what makes him stand out from the rest. His humble, grounded, and down to earth approach in music. Thank you Yunchan.

    • @asianpearl1321
      @asianpearl1321 Před 3 měsíci +39

      that's correct! When I watched and listened to other rendition of this piece as if there was a chaos of instruments. Without undermining the musicians but it seemed there was a struggle to catch up. I felt it was more of a noise than music. Unlike here that pianist Yunchan and the orchestra sync beautifully! Really love it so I keep comin' back.

    • @najdomingo
      @najdomingo Před 3 měsíci +49

      This shows that Yunchan doesn't need to constantly seek for attention. Even when this is a Piano concerto and the piano is supposed to be the main instrument, he is humble enough to give away attention to the instrument that has the main melodic line. He is not afraid to be at the back and be "just" a supporting melody. This way, there is a real dynamics between the instruments in the orchestra. They talk, and it is not just the piano that speaks.

      @@jee8210 he genuinely reminds me of Horowitz in his early years, but slightly less bombastic. The virtuosity he displays and his enormous repertoire (which wasn’t even fully played in the Cliburn) is enough to make any high level pianist envious of this 18 year old. It’s been 100 years since Horowitz’s debut in Europe as an 18-20 year old, and now we have an 18 year old who plays with such precision, accuracy and grandeur, and yet does not rush like most modern super virtuosos. I truly believe we have seen the successor to Vladimir Horowitz in the Gold medalist winner of the Van Cliburn 2022 competition!

The listeners who are not in “competition” with Yunchan were simply in awe, ecstatic, and marveled at Yunchan’s prodigious musicality. But the professionals, notably those who recorded Rach 3 or their live performances posted on CZcams, would be so embarrassed at theirs compared with Yunchan : They know how lousy their plays were and they cannot compete with Yunchan-no matter how hard they try-in million years. Yunchan is simply on another level that they cannot reach. The Rach 3 at Van Cliburn competition was an announcement to the world that the greatest living pianist was just born. Ben Laude and two guests (Van Cliburn jurors) confirmed it with their own words although they didn’t spell it out specifically-they needed to be diplomatic on that kind of statement.

      It's such a contrast to the opening (0:30)!

Upon hearing this "repeat", I actually thought it was the CD skipping in my player because it sounded exactly the same as the start to me - I even went as far as to clean the finger smudges off the CD!

    I have listened to this recording many times now. There are hundreds of comments available about the work Yunchan does, as well as interviews, newspaper reviews and listener comments about this and the subsequent versions he has made of it with other conductors. Comments about his relative youth, and his seemingly freakish ability are easy to find. In one interview he really supplies his own explanation for his work, claiming that all the answers lie in the music. And he is so right. Of course he has enormous technical skills as well as an incredible capacity for very hard work. I fancy his IQ , including its literary, emotional and musical components, is extraordinary, BUT HE ALSO EMPLOYS IT TO ITS FULL POTENTIAL as he approaches any musical composition. He reveres the composers themselves and also delves into their histories. So Yunchan doesn't need to be old, have huge life experience, be entranced or possessed in order to perform as well as he does. This also explains what he means by' improvisation' as he plays-he doesn't rest on his laurels between performances but rereads and reinterprets the composers' intentions as new insights are revealed from the music. Occasionally he embellishes scores slightly, very fittingly, where he feels it will enhance the work-make it clearer. It is therefore the composers' knowledge, insights, life-experiences, moods, and intentions he reads from their works and uses his wonderful talents to present them to us as clearly as he is able. They are the old souls, but Yunchan has it within his DNA and young life experience to make it his business to know and honour them. Thank you universe.

      Must have been amazing to hear him in person. I’ve heard this piece dozens of times, and Rachmaninoff is my favorite composer. I’ve never heard a pianist, ever, who captured the heart of Rachmaninoff’s harmonic language with such precision and passion. His interpretation is everything I love about the composer distilled into a single, masterful performance. I am also in awe. There is nothing one can do but laugh in amazement.

      As an addendum, this conductor is incredible! Without her, I don’t think this performance is possible.

    I didn't know much about classical music, but I felt overwhelmed, sad, and peaceful when I saw YunChan lim performance. The emotional sensation that pure art gives me felt as if man felt irresistible helplessness in front of nature. I also knew for the first time that a piano could make such colorful sounds. I learned from this video why classical music and art are so touching. I want to know more about classical music from now on and I'm really looking forward to his future growth.
