- Van Cliburn performs the Rachmaninoff Concerto No. 3 live in Moscow in 1958 with the Moscow Philharmonic under Kirill Kondrashin. Before the performance can begin he reads a "love-letter" placed for him on the keyboard
1. Allegro ma non tanto
2. Intermezzo: Adagio - 18:32
3. Finale: Alla breve - 29:12 - Hudba
And lets not forget the genius that was Kirill Kondrashin
Returning to this great performance,I was particularly struck by Van Cliburn's love for the music! The conductor and orchestra are incomparable. No-one else seems able to get to the heart of this concerto like these great artists! Such revelatory love and sensitivity. A privilege to experience this!
So well said, Anthony. Thank you for your comment. He was God's gift to us.
He was my love at age 12 until he died. We were very close. I knew his parents and cousins. I adored his genius. He always supported my playing.
It's astounding, isn't it-- that this very young man had not only the amazing talent and musicality, but the poise and ease to go there and play this masterpiece in the land of its birth for the people who knew it so well? His Moscow triumph was a sensation heard round the world, catapulting him and his career into the stratosphere of classical performance and our hearts. I was born that year, '58, and grew up listening to his recordings; my Mom was one of his biggest fans. And this stunning concerto, a gargantuan work of monster chords and mammoth demands, he manages to make sing as well as storm. The maturity and finesse of young Van Cliburn won lifeling fans everywhere, and he took it all in with grace and joy. Rest in peace, Van Cliburn 💐🏆🎹
As an historic document, this has to be one of the top finds on CZcams. One always "knew" there were videos of this performance, but I figured one may never find its way to the surface. I am so very grateful to finally hear and see the performance that won Mr. Cliburn the competition.. He perhaps takes more chances here than later in New York, when he had to come home and show proof for what he had accomplished. It is fun hearing the brass play with vibrato and seeing a surprising number of women in the orchestra! Thank you for finding this document and for posting! Oh, and I love Kondrashin! He's a great conductor.
Absolutely! Ditto! This is stunning treasure.
....the unusual purity of the lyric parts sets this performance in the unique category.....the beauty of his forte and above sonority.abd the natural healthy conception with a transcendental pianism......😮😊😅
A thrillingly virtuosic and equally heart-rending performance such as has rarely if ever been heard since.
I have heard about Van through the years of listening to classical radio. But seeing him perform puts a new perpective about him for me. Truly an amazing talent and personality. The conductor of this orchestra is amazing as well.
my favorite version.
Thank you so much for the beautiful, elegant, and perfect performance
I love how at 12:55 he completely halts the sound for a moment before he starts the 3 stave section. No pedal. Very effective
Absolutely brilliant Kondrashin, who knows every note in the concerto conducts by heart! He is concentrated and deeply emotional. There are magnificent colors in the orchestra and sea of dynamic shades. And what an ensemble: a whole symphony, not an accompaniment... all this is Kondrashin!
32:47 Cliburn's performance of this entire middle section is simply amazing. I grew up listening to Cliburn recordings and so I have a bit of a soft spot in my heart for them.
Van Cliburn. Its shame to have found this Centennial Pianist so late during the excitement of Yun Chan Lim being the Gold Medalist by the Van Cliburn Concur so finally I had chance to appreciate this Centennial Pianist Van Cliburn's recitals inclg Raffmaninov No 3 & others.. I must say I got deeply moved to see his finger tips touching keys all of which sounding beautiful cristal sounds as if dangling crystals at the edge of Wings of butterfly there touching the surface of water that no one has ever never playing like Van Cliburn so to have realized why he has become the Pride & the Legacy of all Americans & many othe classic lovers in the World..
Curious, why do you refer to him as Centennial Pianist? And what is a Van Cliburn Concur?
@@kevinm6790 1. Isnt this piano contest called the Van Cliburn Concur? 2. What's wrong with my connotation Centennial Pianist on him? Why challenging? I'm curious of your nationality. I think he deserves that title. Any more objections?
@@ktwinkle690 No objections. I’m just trying to understand what you mean. We refer to it as the Van Cliburn Competition. Centennial means 100 years, so are you saying he’s one of the best pianists in the last 100 years? Again, I’m not objecting, just curious.
@@kevinm6790 I understand your point.I could've been unbalanced from the professional thorough review. By the way,what's your opinion on Yun Chan's Raffmaninov No 3 verses Van Cliburn's
He played has always Rachmaninov wanted it to be played far better then Horowitz and others bitches. ..without that terrible percussive sound or terrible taste we are used to hear so often.....And you know why?The true tradition were passed to him in beauty of sound technique and good taste by Rosina Lhevinne who was so close to Rachmaninov Joseph Lhevinne and Hoffmann!
A historic video of a keyboard giant at his peak.
Outstanding! What a precious jewel, thank you for posting!
So beautiful listening to Rach 3 not performed too fast like nowadays. It's about the music wich has to become clear articulated and expressed!
Thank so much for sharing this video and educating me on this important event.
Браво знаменитый Ван Клиберн!
Удивительно играет! Такое
Ощущение, что рояль сам играет, а он смотрит куда то вдаль и в небо с закрытыми глазами, музыку знает наизусть.Гений!
Браво Ван Клиберн !!!
MAGNIFICENT a million times! Absolutely fantastic performance! Van Cliburn plays and performs from the heart.
His iconic and angelic playing are locked in my heart. Such a sensitive and loving man which radiated thru his music. Bravo great one!!
amazing talent ! He deserved the gold medal .. RIP Van , we love your playing ,u are the greatest !
Cliburn not The greatest! Cliburn his Grieg concerto The cool cold piano sound! Cliburn his Brahms piano concerto no 1 Not that Great! The greatest pianists of All Time Are really Artur Rubinstein ( The God) Grigory Sokolov ( The TItan The Giant of The piano) Emil Gilels ( The King) Sviatoslav Richter Maurizio Pollini Wilhelm Kempff Vladimir Ashkenazy Alexei Lubimov Stanislav Igolinsky( better than Lipatti) Mikhail Pletnev Radu Lupu ( Brahms piano concerto no 1 with The Finnish Radio Symphony Orchestra video CZcams! Lupu a class of his own playing Brahms piano concerto no 1) Solomon Cutner Maria Grinberg Natalia Trull Rosa Tamarkina Ekaterina Novitskaya!!
I’ve read that Horowitz and A Rubinstein said they together couldn’t produce Cliburn’s tone. I agree, though I dearly love them both. Cliburn is precious to me, and I am so grateful for these wonderful posts. I sincerely thank you for this! So much!

More beautiful colorful piano Sound than Cliburn=Wilhelm Kempff Emil Gilels Artur Rubinstein Radu Lupu Vladimir Ashkenazy!

More Genius than Cliburn=Sviatoslav Richter Solomon Cutner Grigory Sokolov Maurizio Pollini Alexei Lubimov Stanislav Igolinsky!
@@RaineriHakkarainen It's hyperbole. No need to take it literally. I personally think for the middle section of the third movement, I have yet to hear Cliburn's equal.
Браво пиано Ван Клиберн концерт-3 композитор Рахманинов! Браво оркестр и дирижор! Браво, замечательно
,вдохновенно! Спасибо!
Какое лицо! Сколько достоинства и сдержанности в осанке, ничего внешнего! Сам Господь передал послание через игру Mr. Cliburn! ❤❤❤
And he makes it all look so easy... ❤
This Concerto has been described as "44 minutes of finger twisting madness" but Can Cliburn's fingers gracefully sail and flow over the keys making it look effortless. It's anything but effortless, but that is the magic of his performance.
Sublime genius❤
Какой великий труд так замечательно играть🙏❤️😍🌹🎆
just my opinion but I think he is the greatest pianist/interpreter of Rachmaninoff ever. it was in his soul, fingers, and heart. The Romantic era was his.
Absolutely no doubt. Sonata #2 in B Flat Minor drives that point home even further.
Kondrashin absolutely adored Cliburn. Adored.
정말 귀한 영상이네요
잘 맞춰준 지휘자에게 감사를 표하는 장면도 너무 귀엽고 유쾌하네요
Браво концерт 3 Сергей Рахманинов! Браво дирижер

Love the kiss between conductor and pianist!!! Memorable indeed
That was a true Leonid Brezhnev smack, right on the lips I think.

An effective, wonderful, and rememberable bridge. Thanks for sharing.
Rachmaninov's piano concerto no.3, along with the quintessential no.2, was composed in 1909, about 10 years after the debacle of the performance of the First Symphony. It was, and still is, the pinnacle of the genre, and one of the composer's supreme achievements. This performance by Van Cliburn and Kondrashin is my ultimate favourite. Many thanks for sharing.

I wish I was here in that crowd with my eyes closed and just listening.
So nice to watch in this troubled period...
The fact that we get to watch this Historic moment is so mindblowing and it's free too? Thank you so much. VAN IS THE MAN. I love the conductor too. Im addicted to this video.
안타깝네요. 임윤찬 연주를 보고 나서 봐버렸네요 ᆢ. 고맙습니다. 이렇게 귀한 연주를 남겨 주셔서. 반은 사랑스런 연주자 맞아요. 관중과 지휘자에게 청년의 순수한 감정을 숨김 없이 전달했군요.
What else can you say about this! Such brilliance but so deeply felt. Van was born
to play Rachmaninov and this is just splendid. His playing is spine tingling.
Yes, he played it in a very special way. He didn't go for the fast tempi, but opted for the depth and lyricism instead. It was a very brave artistic decision to do it that way in a competition.
Thank you for lovely response. I am not a pianist but Van never seems
to rush through playing anyway, as with others performers I have noticed.
His playing of this reaches you in a way that is very affecting and touching. How I missed him in my youth, I will never know. Thank
goodness for youtube and the chance to see him as well as hear.
I love Rachmaninov anyway. I have the books about Van Cliburn
and now have the DVDs and records. Thank you so much
for posting. I was only seven when he won!
Yes, he was called "the King of slow tempi" for a good reason - every note had to sing out!
@@thebrahmsandliszt Can you imagine Rachmaninoff watching and listening to Van and this superb orchestra and director? I believe he would be shedding tears. Also, I would love to know what that note said when Van sat at the piano! …. 😊 I love Van Cliburn more every year that passes. With him, music doesn’t come from a page through his fingers, but the forces of life pouring through his soul and on through his fingertips. The piano is an extension of his soul. He is a candlestick. He is a conduit.
@@littlebrookreader949 Rachmaninov would be and surely is,because he lives in Paradise,delight by this esecutivo, much better then Horowitz till that I doubt that Rachmaninov said that Horowit was best then himself in 3 piano concerto. He actually said about Horowitz 'We hope his musical sense will be better as he married Toscanini 's daughter,but until now no one of us has noticed it'(1936)
Many thanks for your great work uploading this version 😀 👍

БРАВО Рахманинов и Ван Клиберн!
Having grown up in the 50's playing classical piano, he was my shining light. Years later I was graced to play the same Steinway grand VC played in his Amarillo, TX performance around the late 60's. The piano was purchased by Stanley Marsh (TOM) & proudly displayed in his beautiful grand room; VC had etched his signature in gold leaf on the top. I was lucky enough to play classical music for Stanley's dinner parties while his Irish wolfhound hung his head over my shoulder & drooled on the piano keys, the quests ate/drank & all had a wonderful time. I miss Stanley, VC & all that it meant back then. Thank god for CZcams to bring my memories back.
Good
Lovely memories
I thank our God and Creator for bestowing upon humans the ability to appreciate and perform beautiful song and music. I'm glad you have such a gift.
Wow, wow, wow. How fantastic 🎹🎶👏

Amazing, wonderful, thank you so much for sharing
우와 ~ 피아노에 영혼이 함께하는듯 연주한다 👍
Que memoria. !!!!!! Solo.un genio Bravo !!!!!!!!!🤩.
Extraordinary combination of musical sophistication and soulfulness. Kondrashin inspiring and imaginative as well. Cliburn had been playing this work regularly in America since 1954, to great critical acclaim.
БРАВО,, БРАВО!)
Tres tres beau!
Magnificent playing! I never like this "first cadenza" when I hear it played by other pianists, but the way he does it! Fantastic! Like this, it sounds better than the usual one!
Beautiful..
Bravissimo!
From when he won the Russian competition until about 10+ years later, Van Cliburn could keep up with any of them.
The most under-rated pianist and artist in the classical community.
Wonderful!!!,
Not only do we get to hear this magnificent performance, but we see the legend in action. What a treat! Thanks very much for posting.
Море музыки! Какое удовольствие. Браво!

驚きました。今のピアニストが…特に男性。、、こぞって弾きたがる３番のコンチェルトを１９５８年にクライバーンによってこんなに素直なラフマニノフが演奏されていたとは、知りませんでした！夜中なので少し文章が可笑しいかも知れないけれど、嬉しくなり思わず書いてしまいました。おやすみなさい。まる
thank you so much
One of the truly greatest moments in the history of recorded music. As a child growing up in the midwest, I was able to watch his televised performance shortly after he won. Rachmaninoff Three has the status it had today due to Vladimir Horowitz, and after his mid-career retirement, Van Cliburn. Cliburn threw down the gauntlet of the ossia cadenza in the first movement, until now, it is almost a required choice. Yes, I am aware Gieseking played the ossia, but he doesn't play the role that Cliburn does. In this particular instance, Mr. Cliburn appears utterly spent at the conclusion.
I adored him
Van cliburn was so elegant,
beautifully poised veery natural,:with great warmth ,and 'beautiful smile!!! One knew he was "very special and was the greatest the way the audience greeted him with such thunderous applause and excitement'!!! The beautiful smile and the way he acknowledged thelldienece an
By 2024, the Rachmaninoff Third is probably the most famous concerto in the world. We need to restudy our history to find out why this "nuclear" explosion of Rachmaninoff has occurred. A student of mine feels that a certain recent recording of this concerto is the "greatest performance" of the piece ever. Others feel the latest Van Cliburn Competition winner has them all beat. Study history. We have the recorded performances to do so. When Mr. Cliburn learned this concerto, he had Horowitz's 1951 recording to refer to, but probably not a live performance. (That's my guess). Horowitz himself learned and performed it in Russia before he ever met Rachmaninoff. Indeed, Mr. Cliburn shows he is familiar with the Horowitz performance. My point if that these two men--along with the composer--established the standards for this concerto, and every one of the hundreds who now play it owe them eternal thanks for their pioneering efforts. Mr. Cliburn's greatest contribution is his inclusion of the ossia cadenza in the first movement. Let's not be so quick to jump on crowded band wagons to laud the latest-only-to-be-supplanted performance of this long-enduring concerto. When you watch and listen to this document, you acknowledge the making of history, and a great performance on upon which all others must build. We can all listen in on the next Van Cliburn Competition to see who is the next Johnny-come-lately to tackle "Rock Three".
3:12 to 3:52 forever my favorite part
bravo.....
Maravilloso!!!
VC's technique is singing, even in the harshest chords, everything is sung, and this is a russian principle in piano playing; he got it from his russian teachers in JS NYC
You are so right! How hard to fear and feel that this tradition is quite lost. ..
T h e most AMAZING fact: such completely perfect ensemble playing, matutiyy and naturalness..while it was at age 24 in a COMPETITION!!! DOUNDD RATHER AS IF THEY, KONDRASHIN, HIS ORCHESTRA AND VLIBURN HAD BEEN PLAYING FOR Y E A R S !!!!!!!😢
Respect.
Felicitaciones! Por difundir este magnífico y excelso vídeo de un insigne pianista de todos los tiempos. Van Cliburn se encuentra en la lista de grandes y talentosos pianistas tales como Emil Gilels, Sviatoslav Richter, Lazar Berman, Artur Rubinstein, Vladimir Horowitz, Alfred Brendel, Cláudio Arrau y otros que ejecutaron este grandioso concierto único en la historia por su enorme complejidad y belleza musical. Excelente!!!
Solo sé decir: locura!
As far as I know Richter never performed the Rachmaninov's 3rd Concerto. Correct me if I'm wrong. And I totally agree with you about Gilels's rendition, which (for me) is the closest to my personal perception of this great piece. Add Grisha Sokolov to this list... Of course, Cliburn here is marvelous.
Hace. muchos años. 😅
Grabe la última competición. La Academia Kliburn en Japón. ❤
Al rato se la pongo para que copies. México. 🇲🇽
