From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Piano Sonata No. 2
Frédéric Chopin's Piano Sonata No. 2 in B-flat minor, Op. 35, is a piano sonata in four movements. Chopin completed the work while living in George Sand's manor in Nohant, some 250 km (160 mi) south of Paris, a year before it was published in 1840. The first of the composer's three mature sonatas (the others being the Piano Sonata No. 3 in B minor, Op. 58 and the Sonata for Piano and Cello in G minor, Op. 65), the work is considered to be one of the greatest piano sonatas of the literature.
The third movement of the Piano Sonata No. 2 is Chopin's famous funeral march (French: Marche funèbre) which was composed at least two years before the remainder of the work and has remained, by itself, one of Chopin’s most popular compositions. The Piano Sonata No. 2 carries allusions and reminiscences of music by Bach and by Beethoven; Beethoven's twelfth piano sonata also has a funeral march as its third movement. A typical performance of Chopin's second sonata lasts between 21 and 25 minutes, depending on whether the repetition of the first movement's exposition is observed. While the Piano Sonata No. 2 gained instant popularity with the public, critical reception was initially more doubtful. Robert Schumann, among other critics, argued that the work was structurally inferior and that Chopin "could not quite handle sonata form", a criticism that did not withstand time. The work has been recorded by numerous pianists and is regularly programmed in concerts and piano competitions. The Marche funèbre exists in countless arrangements and is performed at funerals all over the world (including Chopin's own funeral), having become an archetypal evocation of death.
Thank you for preserving this concert for listeners present and future
Zimerman playing Chopin is just different.
In the 4th movement soul flies in another realm
Thank you for salvaging this, perhaps the definitive interpretation of this complex and beautiful piano sonata. The build-up of tension is so incredible, especially throughout the first movement, the climaxes so haunting, the modulation throughout so well-adjusted.
忘れません、何があろうとも、素晴らしいマエストロのピアノ🎹。楽譜と向き合い、演奏家の個性に委ねられる作品に、定義ずけた職人技、ピアノ楽器へのこだわり、クラシックピアノ界の史上の権威です。ショパンソナタNo.2を共に生きた作品として、伝え残して下さり、心より深く感謝申し上げます。この作品は私の生命です。🙇涙なしでは聴けない永遠の響きです。ありがとうございます、！🙇😂
Already cried twice during the first movement while on the train...not sure whether I want to reach the funeral march and the finale. Amazing
In interpretation on the Marche funèbre, Zimerman takes it like Mussorgsky's Bydlo. And it makes so much sense. It's a funeral procession. It starts softly as the procession coming, and gradually increasing in volume as it approaching and then diminishing as the procession gets farther away. Genius!
Great interpretation Maestro Kristian Zimerman !
Frydryk.la intensità rubra del cuore e la levità dell'anima pura
Pure perfection
@constantin250 : j also want so , explain what means sonata op35-2 ; thank ' s , CZcams is an exchange of informations , j like to learn
Hermosisima sonata. El paso del segundo al tercer movimiento, me parece muy difícil de colocar. Una vez más Zimmermann tiene la maestría suficiente como para que haya una lógica entre ambos. Gracias!
This him. No best intrepretation. But one of the outstanding
Truly an exquisite performance by Monsieur Zimerman! Btw what is the location of that pic in 14:47? Much obliged!

Which concert was this recorded at?
From a previous video comment: Salzburg and the year I'm not sure

So different ! So incredibly masterful! But I don't understand it.
Just feel it :)
Where did you find this?
op35-2 it's Rachmaninov-Aschkenazy , Rubinstein disappointing for once Zimerman it's Chopin-international competition ; op35-2 is the great piano sonata so tiny number of interpreters who understand what Chopin thought about death ; philosophical sonata op35-2 !
Well, not gonna lie. it's a well solid rendition. But this specific piece has so many challenging parts that only a handful of master pianists will truly grasp and convey this masterpiece. Gilels, or Rubenstein, come to mind. Some transitions sound a little too hammery for my taste. But all in all it was a good attempt nevertheless...
途中からの抜粋なので、分かりにくいところがあります。50年以上模索し続けて、未完成というコメントを文化賞受賞後翌年の初秋にヨーロッパで、残しましたが、その年の日本でのツアーでは、結論を出していると、考えてよいといえます。ライブ録音を残して、ショパン国際😊コンクールのアニバーサリーにご使用下さいますよう、。
