Beautiful performance Tiffany!
That's an amazing quote.

Everyone talking about the last note and her legato, how is no one commenting on how much soul she puts into her rubato? It’s full of drive and tenderness!
Absolutely. I love the way she brings this piece to life. She is brilliant. Check out Kissin for a comparativeczcams.com/video/yt2Dmg4ebh8/video.html
That was one of the best codas I've seen! So purposeful and not rushed.
Another gem of classic Chopin in this magnificent Ballade No.1 in G Minor Opus 23 by Tiffany Poon. There seems to be no end to this pianist. I hope she plays forever. JRH
8:20 to 9:00 is just unbelieveble, awesome!!!!!!
I dont know of any pianist who does not make mistakes; Horowitz and Rubinstein were known to make frequent false notes. Most people who won these competitions did not make any international career afterwards and many great pianists never won anything. In fact often times it is the second or third prize that gets to be known and not the first prize.
Yeah that's a great point. Many competition judges or music scholars forget that it is actually the audience who are the "real judges", as they are the ones that PAY TICKETS to watch the musicians perform, and the audiences does not enter the concert hall looking for perfection, they enter to FEEL something, to be CONNECTED from the musicians. So, if the competition judges' choice cannot represent the audiences' choice, that competition means nothing to me, and means nothing to the musicians too.
Interesting but true observation! It happens to all sorts of human endeavours and competitions. Rarely the best students or winners will become famous persons in the field, but it is the number two or three or four.....
@@taihiong Well that's why the audiences are the real judges :)
Of course, the greats like Horowitz et al have made mistakes but I think during very difficult sections where it's easier to miss a note. I enjoyed her performance a lot and was surprised and disappointed that she made a mistake like this at the end. It wasn't a difficult area and slightly spoiled the experience. It's sort of like making a great ice cream sundae with all the toppings and then you start to eat it and then find a spoiled cherry on top. That might be all you remember of it. This girl is a very talented performer, definitely a prodigy, but as I said, this mistake seemed like a very big blunder to me. And she knew it by the face she made right after. imho ;)
@@RandomPianoDude1990 it means something to the musicians - prizes i mean you could get 100$
Fortunately Tiffany plays better in concert than in competitions, and usually her Chopin is the best. I watch exclusively classical music on CZcams, and by chance hit one of her self made studio recordings on her channel. Despite some oddities I was impressed by her elegant and gentle playing, and now I am a hardcore fan and supporter of her. Her last live-streamed recital at Gilmore Festival was a star moment.
...Hitting a wrong note in the last chord sucks. I hate when that happens, and it happened to me and to some of my colleagues... in concert!
Unfortunate ending, which incidentally happened to me today while playing that piece, that same mistake. My finger landed between the two notes, instead of on the note and the result was that same mistake. I feel it for her,
She really didn't have to go from mid air to the keys like that. Watch 9:33 again. Should have pushed in the keys after placing the fingers on top - then the mistake would've been avoided with certainty. I would have also used both 2 and 3 on the right hand to play that one G for improved accuracy and power.
Should you sit there advising Tiffany who is one of the best young pinists in the world today?? Redicoulous. Make a youtube on the same piece which is better haha - Tiffanys is one of the best interpretations at all - and we will listen to you. Moron!
That doesn't change the validity of that advice. Tiffany, who is exceptional, isn't the only young pianist studying at a high level conservatory, and most, if not all young pianists still can afford to take advice, learn, and ripen with time.
Rubinstein made mistakes too. Overall, a great performance.
@@solbriller1 Just because she is good doesn't mean she is perfect, there is always room for improvement in piano, although not as much room as there is for improvement in your use of the english language, MoRoN
Learning a lot from the performance and the comments thank you all. I loved it.
Incredibly beautiful performance, Tiffany! I don't think I've ever heard this piece played so beautifully. The mistake in the last chord is unfortunate indeed, but I actually find it quite charmingly human ..>
"To err is human; to forgive is divine."
So clean.. and she even jazzed it up in the end :)
really like this performance. And the final cord makes it relatable.
such a fascinating performance, such composure and application of both technique and emotion. Very much did justice to my favourite piece of all time
I want to sue the person who puts ads in the middle of this masterpiece
If it were easy it would not be called a competition, everything is analyzed, judged and charged, Tyffany performance It is incredible, and surpasses many professional pianists, I personally really liked how she performed the "theme" in a smooth way. Really amazing in many ways.
But this is a competition, which the best of the best should win, Tiffany is not bad, she is simply fantastic in her performance, She deserves all the credit for simply getting to the point of participating, it is a chance that not much had.
Thank you for Reading.
非常出色的节奏控制。每次听第一叙事曲都有回顾个人命运的感觉，伟大的经历塑造伟大的作曲家。
Tout est fabuleux : La pianiste Tiffany Poon incroyable , L'auteur Frédéric Chopin et le piano il faut voir les ateliers de Steinway à Hambourg !
This was exceptional, Tiffany!
This is the most creative, incredible control of the dynamics, technically flawless, best interpretation I have ever heard. It is something out of heaven. She is a global treasure. She far out passes all pianists of the 20th century!! I performed this piece myself and I see how much I was in a fog musically. I played too much, too loud. Her pianissimos were exquisite and all the pieces of the puzzle fit together beautifully!!! Bravo!!! you are after my own heart! Thank you!!!
Chopin music with all it's finesse, strength and emotions obviously animates her. Bravo Tiffany!
so beautiful.
This is beautifully played. It's all that matters to me. Thank you Tiffany.
so skilled! amazing
Excellent.
Full of passion period...
i still say that tiffanys tempo is the best at least for all the chopin repertoire, dont get me wrong there are very good pianists who play beautifully but the way this young woman plays i always come back to her playing no matter what
The most complex passages perfect! A single final cord and %^&$#. It happens, but her passion and commitment to this piece were magnificent. That cord will remind me of the best performance I've heard of Chopin's Ballade No.1 in G Minor. Thank you Tiffany!
she did it on purpose after hitting thousands of keys throughtout the performance
Fuck that’s unlucky, probably the best interpretation I’ve heard for this ballade and that last chord appears. Damn Murphy’s law man, unfair.
Bad notes are a fact of life, get over it. The greats did all the time, and most of those were not taking part in competitions.
Exactly. This is one aspect of the classical music performance circuit that really rubs me the wrong way--i like to hear things happen that weren't telegraphed. I think Chopin did too.
Bless her!
A very unique interpretation , nuttiness and chic
awesome!
wow love it!
Con quella stecca finale ha mandato a fan'culo tutti i maniaci perfezionati benpensanti della musica!... i quali non sono in grado di capire i valori musicali di questa ragazza...
Great playing, forget the ending 😊
such a clean and flowing interpretation. bravo
I love your music tiffany
It’s Chopins music
Ur just a wonderful girl who worked so hard in a world where people work hard to judge
Very fine performance. So, she fat-fingered one note in the final chord....SO WHAT!!!!
its not a chord its an octave, and I felt bad for her, I mean... look at her face when she did it. :C and btw it was not the single time she fat fingered but it still was very passionate and thats what matters. passion is more important than perfection
very moving interpretation.
SHE IS AMAZING NO MATTER WHAT BRAVO BRAVO CONGRATS OMGOMG OMG OMG!!!!
Wrong note means nothing really amazing performance
Thats gotta be the cleanest coda ive ever seen.
Other than Zimerman, I agree
I feel so sorry for that last note. Poor Tiffany, I know this mistake cannot tell such an outstanding pianist she is.
So what is big deal
9:33 “O yea I was on fire. Nailed it! 9:35 “Shit........”
LOLOLLLL She must be sad for this:( ..
테크닉도 정말 좋고 표현력도 좋은데 프레이즈가 모션때문에 끊어지고 타건자체가 튕기는 타건이다보니 깊은 소리를 못내서 안타까워요
Quite marvelous tiffaney
EXCELLENT coda
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Qué imperdonable falta de respeto perpetrada por CZcams al insertar publicidades en medio de la música! que´magnífica interpretación!!!
every note is a flop when i try to play it, people have to stop focusing on the bad stuff.
Fuck you. Stay mediocre
Zombihilanth fuck you, stay medicore
Chopin's soul is singing thru your fingers
Why is there an ad in the middle of the video?? INEXCUSABLE!!
I think this young strikes the right tone with every moment of this piece. She doesn't overdo it or oversentimentalize it. Her passage work is very much in keeping the character.a lot of people I feel play this piece too much like liszt
amazing expression and dynamics!! wonderful interpretation!
It would've been PERFECT without that mistake :(
Oh, Tiffany, you poor thing. Only the discerning ear could pick up the slightest of errors throughout what was an impassioned and impressive performance. That last chord... you poor thing I saw the cringe on your face. Happens to us all. Beautiful performance xo
Whoa! This interpretation is so...Schumann-like!
I am not really affected by the wrong note, but rather "China" at the start of the intro... hello she is from Hong Kong make it clearrrrr (I know Hong Kong is part of China but naming it as such is unjust)
Yup, agree with you 100%! It's not like they'd be getting political and saying "FROM THE COUNTRY OF HONG KONG" cause baby China is sensitive with their baby feelings over HK and needs us all to constantly remember it's theirs. Simply "Hong Kong" would've been enough too. Is someone from Taiwan supposed to be listed as "China" too? Sheesh
Even the mistake in the last chord sounded nice...Jazzy 😏
She’s from Hong Kong, and left when she was 8...does that count as “China”?
Yes...hong kong is technically part of china
ATLHooligan It was part of the British Commonwealth till 1997...oh yeah, she was 8 after that.
Hong Kong was always part of China, even when it was occupied by the British, Hong Kong was leased to the British, not handed over to the british permanently, thats why the British had to give it back.
You must have been Alfred Cortot before you were born. i am looking forward to your concert in Japan!
I honestly think this was a great performance! just that ending was unfortunate..
Minor-seventh chords are illegal in classical music, apparently 😂
Honestly though it takes serious humility to own a mistake on the last note--the temptation is to signal that you didn't mean to play that (like her wince), but she owned it and took her bow.
Second chord of bach's prelude in C major is a Dm7,and there is also an Am7 in the piece
@@nir1man was being facetious :) you are correct. One of my favorites is the Ebmi7 in mozart's no 40 mvmt 2. Classical era ears had to be poppin over that jazz
comments giving me cancer
sending condolences
To err is human, to make a big deal about it is childish.
Exactly.
To ignore a blatant error is childish
qu'est ce qui lui arrive ? Elle a l'air désabusée, triste et très fatiguée .. ou alors elle est amoureuse ? Mais elle reste pour moi une des meilleures pianistes de sa génération.
She is nice
she knew it immediately :'(
So unfortunate for a last key
To be honest I liked the last chord
Good performance
me too it's j a z z y
Here yet again I find you...
i like her interpretation than Valentina though
Ling Ling then who would be above average? Of course I'm talking pianists that are still alive. Valentina is actually a very refined pianist imo. Nice name btw
la publicidad en medio mejora la presentacion.
She nailed all the fast jumps in the cadenza to end up failing the very simple final octave, which is unbelievably unlucky.
actually was planned UwU
great interpretation, is this audition ? sound like she was on immense pressure there
It was a competition. The first stage.
Some said they had heard a wrong note in the awesome interpretation of this ballade ?
Not a single wrong note for me, excepted the awfull ad cutting this great performance in slices.
Is it really necessary ? To subcribe to such slicing? No thanks...
I didn't hear any wrong note, all's I heard was beauty from beginning to end.
if only she hadn't raise her hands so fast stayed on the g note while changing pedal! it had been fine...
you pass the audition😍😍😘😘😅😆😗😁😂
She's from Hong Kong, not China
Like si ésto te recuerda a Shigatsu wa Kimi no uso 🥺
To play perfectly is robotic; to play humanly is majestic.
Brook Horn
Great performance Tiffany!
at 6:26 she did a wrong note maybe
sorry at 6:28
@@ellkidschannel8053 Yup, 8:47 too, but still a wonderful performance nonetheless! 😭
oh my god this is any pianist's biggest fear. The last damn G was wrong it's so sad the piece was well played whyyyyyyyy
Wtf they put an ad in the middle. The false not at the end I can except. But the add noooo.
timestamp for her mistake? im not into music so can't tell
Ezra Sitompul The very last chord
F
all that adrenaline XD
Last note - also to add impact she'll perhaps decide to take more time to place it firmly on the nail next time !?
Am i the only one Who actually doesnt mind the last fking octave?
yes
I also don't. Any normal human being who's not a judge, dont mind it at all.
If you are concerned about technical mistakes, you should criticize Wim Winters and Alberto Sanna, because they play wrong all the time! How is that possible? Sure, they play the music half as fast as the composers ask for.
OMGGG THAT LAST WRONG NOTE :( is impossible to hide a mistake in the final chords 😅 poor stef , her fingers forgot for a second where is G... Or simply was so tired before that GREAT GREAT intepretation u__u
the intro says largo
Fantastic performance, the wrong note played with purpose
Too much soft pedal, as always, but she is better here than she was at the Chopin comp. Interpretation-wise, this performance stands up quite well for me. Tiffany just needs a few more years to better develop her dynamic and textural abilities.
Awwwww man, of all the times she could’ve played an obvious wrong note it had to be on the last one. It was so obvious and embarrassing. So shameful and disappointing. But that’s how life goes for all of us wether you’re a musician or not. Accept mistakes. Forgive yourself. Move forward. Tomorrow is another day. A stellar performance nonetheless.
that ending though...ouch
One note fucking does not matter. Only human. The as a whokle is one of the best interpretations i have heard at all!
spaetensonaten wrong, one of the worst in intonation.
I feel that TOO! I feel like wasted after that fucking note. Tiffany deserves more love.
Did you try Zimmerman or Rubestein version ?
It's too bad for her, ending the piece with a wrong note :/
there were also some other wrong notes in the performance
una nota mal tocada no la desprestigia!
I think it was not her best version of this ballade. Any way a very good pianist.
