To me, there is no greater music than Rachmaninoff's second piano concerto in conveying the sound of Russian classical music, with all of its grandness, joy and pathos. And it doesn't get any better than Evgeny Kissin's rendition here. Thank you to all the musicians who performed this timeless masterpiece in this video.
Only now I realize that the word "magnificent" is really meaningless in face of these unbelievable performances by Mr. Kissin. Thanks for these few minutes of joy in a world gone mad...
I love Kissin's playing since childhood.....just magnificent and beautiful interpretation on his hands.....Very delicate, elegant and so emotional!!! 👍👍👏👏👏👏👏👏👏❤❤❤❤❤❤💘
The first encore is Rachmaninov's well-known Prelude in C# minor, sometimes referred to as "Bells of Moscow." The composer wrote it in 1892 and performed it later that year. It was the first of what would eventually be 24 preludes including every major and minor key. Rachmaninoff didn't think much of this prelude,. Audiences disagreed, and it was so frequently called for that he eventually admitted to being sick of performing it. That didn't stop him from making various recordings of it, including an Ampico piano roll. The second encore is Tchaikovsky's "Natha valse," the fourth of six pieces in Op. 51. The six works were composed in 1882, two years after the 1812 overture and three before the Manfred Symphony. The waltz is one of Kissin's favorite encores. Left to their own devices, the audience would have undoubtedly encouraged Kissin to play encores all night. Since the orchestra still had Tchaikovsky's "Pathetique" Symphony (#6) (included in this video) to perform after intermission, Kissin prudently limited himself to two encores.
Потрясающая симфония Чайковского, лучшая, на мой взгляд! Такой оптимизм, такое вдохновение, такие возвышенные чувства, что хочется расправить крылья и взлететь!!! И исполнение аеликолепное! Браво! 👍
Thank you for your interesting information regarding the encores. I love the Rach #2. Kissin's interpretation deserved the applause it got and then some. ❤
I know next to nothing about classical music. I watch him on CZcams a lot and he’s always heartbreakingly wonderful. I can’t analyse why, I just know it.
Пианист от Бога! Если есть в пианистах Бог-то это Киссин! Он и в душе такой и как человек! Киссин-это величина измерение высочайшей духовной интеллектуальности и искренности! Каждый раз когда я этот концерт слушаю в ЕГО исполнении, мне кажется что Рахманинов специально для Киссина сотворил или сотворил это чудо, чтобы когда либо Киссин родился и воссоздал этот концерт как в душе Рахманинова это звучала!!! Низкий поклон этому величайшему пианисту и спасибо что за его Божий дар нам!!! Я его несколько раз слышала в живую. Его энергия это что то невероятное просто!
Kissin is pure brilliance. Everything is just right; emotion, tempo, timing. Very few can really play Rachmaninoff, especially the 3rd, but this version of the 2nd is spectacular.
Браво ,Евгений! Вы наша гордость и слава! Даже Герберт фон Караян ,слушая маленького Женечку ,не мог сдержать слёз !Великий пианист ,музыкант !Это такое счастье, что Вы наш современник ,и возможность наслаждаться исполнителем великой музыки!
Не знаю, я слушала второй концерт в исполнении самого Рахманинова в записи и после не могу слушать никого, кроме Горовица. Женечка трактует его совсем не так, как играл сам композитор. А вот шестая Чайковского и дирижёр - японец? - понравились необыкновенно! Только Мравинский исполнял, может, быть лучше. Да ещё Кондрашин и Светланов. Здесь акцент не на устрашение, а на грустную. хрупкую беспомощность . Простите. С ув. Лариса
И Евгений не наша гордость- израильская уже. Учатся в России бесплатно, а потом - гоп, и в Израиль. Хоть бы выплачивали деньги за бесплатное, со стороны беглецов, обучение.
Because this is one of my favorite concertos ever, I have listened to this concerto a lot of times. However, the notes have never been so crystal-clear and vivid as with Mr. Kissin's performance here. This performance is certainly the pinnacle of the Romantic period in my mind. Well done!
A breathtakingly sensitive rendition of one the greatest pieces of music this world is fortunate to own. My sincere thanks to Evgeny Kissin and all concerned.
Rachmaninoff piano concert no 2 is one of the best composition in the history of music . Music is enough for a lifetime ,but a lifetime is not enough for music . Other compositions that I like :Chopin piano concert 1 and Brahms piano concert 2 .
@ 37:47 caught me completely off guard. That musicians realize the beauty of what they are doing in fleeting moments of joy, and look at another with sharing eyes. Whoever you are, flautist, thank you. I reflect on all of the time invested, the money on stage in instuments alone, the lives of all of those musicians. Thank you, Evegeny. Masterpiece.
I can't believe I am hearing this beautiful music. I just keep playing it over and over again. Evgeny you are the best. I have heard other performances of this piece, not even close to this performance. Thank you a thousand times!!!!!!!!!!
This is just Your subjective opinion. Only composer himself could tell who transcribed his creation the best. Rachmaninov considered Arthur Rubinstein being the best, followed by Emil Gilels. Gilels admired American Van Clybourn, being the best of the new generation, following by Grigory Sokolov. All I’m saying that there are quite a few extraordinary pianists (and Kissin is one of them),whose artistry and talent we can enjoy on YT. YT allows to widen our musical horizons and improve our appreciation for the real mastery.
In this horrible pandemic and depressing times, there is such still beauty in Rachmaninov's music, and the genius of Mr Kissin is simply a sight to behold. Amazing.
What's depressing is Asians are still shopping in their wet markets and experimenting on the same animals in the same barbaric ways. Other countries can be just as bad, but no real societal changes ever happened in the epicenter of these reoccurring pandemics.
О, Боже! Какое единение оркестра и рояля! Благодарю оркестр и каждого музыканта за высокопрофессиональную работу! Каждый инструмент был единым целым и в тоже время живописные пятна каждого у отдельности! Евгений - вам браво!!! Гениальный исполнитель,,👏🌹💐
It's like there's nothing between Rachmaninoff imagining the notes and their sounds in his mind and the sounds emanating from Kissin's keyboard. Truly breathtaking.
Maestro Kissin, your great nuance for capturing the majestic essence of this masterpiece is not wasted on us. It only propels you into the modern day greatness that you so richly deserve. Bravo.
Bravo Scarlet for these profound words showing your deep respect for Sergei Rachmaninow and his immortal musik as well as for Mr. Evgeny Kissin for his subtle but breathtaking mastership which he always subordinates to the service for the musik.
This is a totally stunning performance by a fabulous pianist! Mr. Kissin truly captures the bold, unabashedly masculine style of possibly the 20th century's greatest pianist, Rachmaninoff himself. There are different approaches to the Russian piano music, but their own unabashed, bold colorful and romantic style of playing is unparalleled rarely by any other in the world. This whole performance is a very marvelous capture of Russian romanticism by a Russian pianist and French orchestra. I would love to have heard this one in person. Imagine hearing this concerto and Tchaikovsky's sixth symphony in one concert!! Thanks to these great musicians for not being afraid of heart felt passionate romanticism captured by two of the most romantic compositions every written! Love it! The violinist, concert master is a rarely handsome gentleman!
Rachmaninov was indeed one of the best pianists of the first part of 20th century and preferred to play his concertos himself…. Until he heard Arthur Rubinstein! Since then Rachmaninov preferred Arthur’s performing his ## 2 and 3, later followed by young Emil Gilels. Gilels brought to fame very young Van Clybourn, whose performances of Rachmaninov were absolutely incredible! Too bad his fame and appreciation of his talent in the US ended too soon.
Спасибо за такое прекрасное исполнение! За возможность насладиться музыкой великого русского гения! ❤❤❤❤❤Браво музыкантам! Евгений - Вам низкий поклон! 💗💗💗
No comments on the performance of Tchaikovsky 6! I was entranced by the conducting, he definitely breathed life in it. Not just conducting, but exposing most tender and painful feelings, transferring them to the orchestra and to the audience! Bravo maestro
Mr. Kissin, you are a genius!!! I am the last person to give you the benefit of a doubt to express Rachmaninoff soul's yearnings, but I think you nailed it. And the Orchestra--stupendous! A grand thank you for your playing. God bless you! I like your personality too; I was graced with hearing your recitals and these wonderful encores at Carnegie Hall back than--these were the days, my friend...:) I hope this hommage somehow reaches you one day!
Lo más cercano a la música del Eden... eso es lo que se produce en la única fusión de partitura de Rachmaninov y su interpretación de Kissin. Lo sublime hecho realidad. Gracias por siempre darme esperanzas de que esta vida vale la pena.
One of the greatest performances of this work I ever heard was a live performance by Fabio Bidini with the Virginia Symphony, for which my wife and I were there in person as I was studying the work with him. I love Kissin's playing of it because he doesn't shy away from the virtuosity while exploring the musical richness of the harmonies and voicing. All the while staying true to the score.
Прекрасно чувствует Рахманинова.... Порыв, великолепие к движению, эмоции.... Всё это есть.. Ноя помню его совсем ещё ребёночком кудрявым, очаровательным. Сейчас он так выглядит мощно, но, такой же ранимый, с детской душой, внешне закрыт.... Представляю, как это непросто выходить каждый раз к слушателям и исполнять.... Озорства и лёгкости у него в его природе характера наверное нет, я не знаю его привычек.... Но она бв ему не помешала... Когда выходишь на сцену.... Там должно оставить всё, что можешь каждый раз по разному.... Мне очень нравится дирижёр и его очень самурай ский вид.... А РАХМАНИНОВ.... ВЕЛИЧАЙШИЙ ГЕНИЙ О ОЧЕНЬ РУССКИЙ КОМПОЗИТОР СО СЛОЖНЕЙШЕЙ СУДЬБОЙ, МНОГО БЫЛО В ЕГО ЖИЗНИ СКИТАНИЙ. ВСЁ ЗНАЮТ, ЧТО ЖИЛ ОН ТАКЖЕ И В АМЕРИКЕ.... И НЕ МОГИ ОЧЕНЬ ДОЛГО ПИСАТЬ ТАМ СВОЮ МУЗЫКУ.... НО ИЗВЕСТЕН И ЛЮБИМ ОН ВО ВСЁМ МИРЕ И ОЧЕНЬ ДОЛЖЕН ПОМОГАТЬ ИМЕННО СЕЙЧАС ТО ПОНЯТЬ, ЧТО ОН ХОРОШО ПОНИМАЛ. СЛУШАЙТЕ.... ПОНИМАЕТЕ.... ДУМАЙТЕ.... РАЗРУШАТЬ ОЧЕНЬ ЛЕГКО.... И ЧТОБЫ ПОТОМ ЧТО-ТО ПОЛУЧИТЬ ЛУЧШЕЕ.... ОБЩЕСТВО И ЧТОБЫ РАЗБИРАТЬСЯ И ДЕЛАТЬ ВЫВОДЫ.... НУЖНО БЫТЬ ЛЮДЬМИ НАСТОЯЩИМИ....
Мне нравится как в комментариях люди хвалят других людей , благодаря которым мы можем наслаждаться этим концертом. Пианист, волторнист (?) , скрипачи, оператор...
With damaged yet beautiful soul When words become powerless Depressions beauty with endless love Fragility of genius touching insanity Bordering on the edge of Rachmaninoff.
Вы молодец! Оркестр и дирижёр прекрасны! Как исполняют шестую! Без эт ого обычного грома и молнии , тихо и трагично, сам Пётр Ильич лучше продирижировать бы не смог! А к Кисину ещё не привыкла. У каждого музыканта своё понимание композиторов. Здесь и техника важна и, не менее того, очень тонкая чувствительная душа. Браво! Браво! браво! Кто дирижёр и чей оркестр - это не менее важно знать. Бог дал я писатель - заходите ко мне: Дзен канал "Чудачка", с теплом и любовью - Лариса Розена.
Absurdly exceptional. When the lyricism touches the fingertips, it is the perfect symbiosis between the body and the movements. Undoubtedly, Rachmaninoff's Piano Concert No.2 and Evgeny Kissin's work moves me whenever I listen to it, even if separately. . . . . .
Just a lot of tears. emotion he's only 51 yrs?~!!!!! Thanks for this incomparable !!! I play the themes from this for my senior audiences....there.s nothing greater in the ROMANTIC realm. DG
This piece makes my heart soar. I feel emotions of power, beauty, grief, sadness, and then that beautiful moment where I feel like I remember how to breath again, even if just for an instant.
How could I not know of EK? 😳 You just know that all here are consummate professionals 👏🏼 Like a well oiled piece of fine machinery that belies the hours of practicing training and dedication that make a masterpiece from an immortal come alive and this recital will forever give joy pathos and move classical aficionados to tears ♥️
Rachmaninoff, lo más selecto y emocional en música clásica, junto a Tchaikovsky, maestros plenos de genialidad, verdaderos embajadores de la cultura rusa. Siento una gran admiración por su hermoso talento y espiritualidad musical.
It enhances this music to know how it came to be. Experiencing depression severe enough to make his 2nd piano concerto's composition unsatisfactory, Rachmaninoff underwent a series of hypnosis sessions during which the Russian psychiatrist Dr. Dahl kept repeating "You will write a wonderful concerto." The fact that during the many years I've listened to classical music radio stations I seem to remember hearing this more often than any other piece of music suggests that the hypnosis was successful. A haunting "reaching" sensation as some critics have described it...
Listening to Sergei through this interpreter is a delight to abolish the surge of everyday noises and images to half-open the space of elsewhere where contingency and representation give way to the immateriality of the sensitive. The expressive power of the sound architecture breaks with any form of transcription of reality to attach itself to the expression of a fabulous universe where the color and the hythm of the compositions constitute an expiration which gives voice to the exaltation 🤠
Mr Kissin is, as has been said several times here an elegant pianist, yet allows the tempestuous moments in this music their due. His playing is authentically, and unabashedly Russian, and especially in this case, letter perfect. Maestro Myung and orchestra obviously are in serious agreement, and the appreciation and affection expressed by the orchestra members is touching. Bravo all the way around.
There is an earlier performance by Kissin of this concerto at the London Prom, must have been made about 20 years ago and his 2nd mov was always nice but in this he takes the emotional power to a whole new level with his slower tempo. Going from Chopin's 1st at 13 to this level of maturity in his 40's shows he's among the greats--a pianist's pianist.
@@JJTownley_Classical-Composer Being an older chap, I had his very first recordings...I'm thinking DG..but not sure. He is elegant, almost aristocratic, but not in the Rubinstein manner...more like Michelangeli?
Moltes gràcies per aquests magnífics concerts. Una orquestra de somni, Evgeny Kissin, genial! am una interpretació impecable, i un meravellós director. Crec que ha sigut la millor versió de Rachmaninovi Chaikovski que he escoltat a la meva vida. Mil gràcies.

The first encore is Rachmaninov's well-known Prelude in C# minor, sometimes referred to as "Bells of Moscow." The composer wrote it in 1892 and performed it later that year. It was the first of what would eventually be 24 preludes including every major and minor key. Rachmaninoff didn't think much of this prelude,. Audiences disagreed, and it was so frequently called for that he eventually admitted to being sick of performing it. That didn't stop him from making various recordings of it, including an Ampico piano roll.
The second encore is Tchaikovsky's "Natha valse," the fourth of six pieces in Op. 51. The six works were composed in 1882, two years after the 1812 overture and three before the Manfred Symphony. The waltz is one of Kissin's favorite encores.
Left to their own devices, the audience would have undoubtedly encouraged Kissin to play encores all night. Since the orchestra still had Tchaikovsky's "Pathetique" Symphony (#6) (included in this video) to perform after intermission, Kissin prudently limited himself to two encores.

НО ИЗВЕСТЕН И ЛЮБИМ ОН ВО ВСЁМ МИРЕ И ОЧЕНЬ ДОЛЖЕН ПОМОГАТЬ ИМЕННО СЕЙЧАС ТО ПОНЯТЬ, ЧТО ОН ХОРОШО ПОНИМАЛ. СЛУШАЙТЕ.... ПОНИМАЕТЕ.... ДУМАЙТЕ.... РАЗРУШАТЬ ОЧЕНЬ ЛЕГКО.... И ЧТОБЫ ПОТОМ ЧТО-ТО ПОЛУЧИТЬ ЛУЧШЕЕ.... ОБЩЕСТВО И ЧТОБЫ РАЗБИРАТЬСЯ И ДЕЛАТЬ ВЫВОДЫ.... НУЖНО БЫТЬ ЛЮДЬМИ НАСТОЯЩИМИ....
Благодарю вас за ваши слова музыка должна и объединяет людей. Она - музыка есть высшее достижение человеческого интеллекта. Ещё раз спасибо
Очень хорошо написали и сейчас актуально...
Мне нравится как в комментариях люди хвалят других людей , благодаря которым мы можем наслаждаться этим концертом. Пианист, волторнист (?) , скрипачи, оператор...
Beautifull masterpiece and breathtaking interpretation. Thank you mr. E. Kissin, keep on blessing us with your music. ❤
Absolutely wonderful.
Великая музыка.
Великолепное исполнение.
Grande force intériorisée , osmose entre le chef et le pianiste . Vraiment un moment de pur bonheur.
With damaged yet beautiful soul
When words become powerless
Depressions beauty with endless love
Fragility of genius touching insanity
Bordering on the edge of Rachmaninoff.
Спасибо! Прекрасная музыка, прекрасный исполнитель. Браво!
Оркестру!Е.Кисину!!! БРАВО!Брависсимо!!!!!!!
Великолепный,любимый,восхитительный,гениальный С.Рахманинов!!! БРАВО!
Вы молодец! Оркестр и дирижёр прекрасны! Как исполняют шестую! Без эт ого обычного грома и молнии , тихо и трагично, сам Пётр Ильич лучше продирижировать бы не смог! А к Кисину ещё не привыкла. У каждого музыканта своё понимание композиторов. Здесь и техника важна и, не менее того, очень тонкая чувствительная душа. Браво! Браво! браво! Кто дирижёр и чей оркестр - это не менее важно знать.

Absolutely wonderful!
Fantastic Master - Brilliant . Evgeny Kissin - Thank you!
Слушала, затаив дыхание. Завораживающее исполнение !
Absurdly exceptional.
When the lyricism touches the fingertips, it is the perfect symbiosis between the body and the movements.
Undoubtedly, Rachmaninoff's Piano Concert No.2 and Evgeny Kissin's work moves me whenever I listen to it, even if separately. . . . . .
Heaven to hear! Love Rachmaninoff! Loved Evgeny Kissin.
Such intense beauty. Inspirational. One person composed this greatest of works.
How ?! One person in the whole world.
When he played PROMS in London, I believe he was called back for FIVE encores.
Magnifico - Monumental . Que performance de uno de los conciertos mas dificiles del repertorio .
Incredible - smooth - mesmerizing...
Greats pieces. Thank´s to Mr. kissin and youtube
this is one of the most patient renditions i've ever heard. really teasing the listener, very neat
can't stop listening....Yvgeny Kissin's love of Rachmaninoff is as whole, intense and deep as I have ever heard...no words. just Love!!!
Just a lot of tears. emotion he's only 51 yrs?~!!!!! Thanks for this incomparable !!! I play the themes from this for my senior audiences....there.s nothing greater in the ROMANTIC realm. DG
Amazing!!! Thank You!!!
This piece makes my heart soar. I feel emotions of power, beauty, grief, sadness, and then that beautiful moment where I feel like I remember how to breath again, even if just for an instant.
Gran orquesta y una impecable dirección. ¡GRACIAS!
How could I not know of EK? 😳
You just know that all here are consummate professionals 👏🏼
Like a well oiled piece of fine machinery that belies the hours of practicing training and dedication that make a masterpiece from an immortal come alive and this recital will forever give joy pathos and move classical aficionados to tears ♥️
Rachmaninoff, lo más selecto y emocional en música clásica, junto a Tchaikovsky, maestros plenos de genialidad, verdaderos embajadores de la cultura rusa. Siento una gran admiración por su hermoso talento y espiritualidad musical.

W ell I woulsd also name Rimsky -Korsakov as one of those "masters full of genius,".
😊😊
It enhances this music to know how it came to be. Experiencing depression severe enough to make his 2nd piano concerto's composition unsatisfactory, Rachmaninoff underwent a series of hypnosis sessions during which the Russian psychiatrist Dr. Dahl kept repeating "You will write a wonderful concerto." The fact that during the many years I've listened to classical music radio stations I seem to remember hearing this more often than any other piece of music suggests that the hypnosis was successful. A haunting "reaching" sensation as some critics have described it...
Es divino este concierto con KISSIN
Мне тоже очень нравится это исполнение. Переслушиваю его регулярно часто. Эдакий симбиоз поздней советской школы и современной интерпретации.
Nádherné!
Děkuji, jedna z nejkrásnějších interpretací Rachmaninofa!
Such beauty performed so excellently ! Thank you all !
Потрясающе ! Благодарю !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Such beautiful pianissimo. Brings character and charm to the dynamics of this piece.
Wonderfulness of Kissin’s piano performance is off the charts.
Not sufficient words to describe the feelings with all these music!!!!!
Listening to Sergei through this interpreter is a delight to abolish the surge of everyday noises and images to half-open the space of elsewhere where contingency and representation give way to the immateriality of the sensitive. The expressive power of the sound architecture breaks with any form of transcription of reality to attach itself to the expression of a fabulous universe where the color and the hythm of the compositions constitute an expiration which gives voice to the exaltation 🤠
Excelentes, tanto el director como Kissin y Rachmaninoff
Can't stop listening and watching his magic hands! crying from joy.
He is one of the greatest pianists , a true master performing the work of yet another incomparable master of composition. Pure beauty.
...hoy, es lo más hermoso que han escuchado mis oídos!!! 🎶😍💯
Mr Kissin is, as has been said several times here an elegant pianist, yet allows the tempestuous moments in this music their due. His playing is authentically, and unabashedly Russian, and especially in this case, letter perfect. Maestro Myung and orchestra obviously are in serious agreement, and the appreciation and affection expressed by the orchestra members is touching. Bravo all the way around.
There is an earlier performance by Kissin of this concerto at the London Prom, must have been made about 20 years ago and his 2nd mov was always nice but in this he takes the emotional power to a whole new level with his slower tempo. Going from Chopin's 1st at 13 to this level of maturity in his 40's shows he's among the greats--a pianist's pianist.
@@JJTownley_Classical-Composer Being an older chap, I had his very first recordings...I'm thinking DG..but not sure. He is elegant, almost aristocratic, but not in the Rubinstein manner...more like Michelangeli?
Прекрасный исполнитель ВеличественногоРахманинова.Спасибо за наслаждение концерта!!!
Maravilloso!!! Mar del Plata Argentina Me emociona siempre
Moltes gràcies per aquests magnífics concerts. Una orquestra de somni, Evgeny Kissin, genial! am una interpretació impecable, i un meravellós director. Crec que ha sigut la millor versió de Rachmaninovi Chaikovski que he escoltat a la meva vida. Mil gràcies.
