Dear maestro, you made me love this concerto all over again when you played it with the San Diego Symphony some (many??) years back. Your performance of it was a delightful surprise and I realized through your music-making that this is truly a great piece. In my childhood it was overplayed and I tired of it. Not so much anymore so it's now quite refreshing to hear! (And wonderful lesson, by the way!)
Saw him with the Minnesota Orchestra recently!! Glad I found this video!
[shocked gasp] You suggested playing a note the composer didn't write! I'm tellin'!
Seriously, it's nice to hear a professional classical musician address some of the questions of sheer pragmatism that arise in music-making.
man what a teacher so brilliant and yet so humble very accomodating😇😇😇
watching a professional masterclass on one of my favorite concerto cadenzas of all time - what a time to be alive! :)
I had the pleasure once of having Jon rehearse on my piano, 20 years ago. Amazing artist.
Just heard Jon play this with the Sarasota Orchestra as a last-minute replacement for an injured soloist, and he was absolutely fabulous!
The grand piano is so flat and yet... he makes it sing too, love it
Love that this channel is also exploring more unconventional approaches to classical music. Really opens my eyes to new sounds and ways of playing.
7:32 - Absolutely amazing innovation there. Proof that classical music still has so much to say.
Bravo 👏🏻 one of my favorite concertos of all time. 🔥
Great tutorial! Thanks for sharing!
Some of the best explanation and teaching on CZcams. Thanks.
7:33 - Percy Grainger played this concerto way too loud to my taste, but Grieg really liked the power and energy in Grainger's playing when they rehearsed the piece in Troldhaugen in 1907, shortly before Grieg's death.
One of my favourite pianists!
This was tremendous. Thank you.
Can I just say I love his outfit
Agreed
Great class!!!
Thank you!
I love your suggestion about the alternate hand arpeggios! I'm going to have to rework this now... LOL
Love this!
First comment! 👽👽 Hello there Tonebase Piano!! 🛸🛸🛸🌏alien says: Awesome lesson as always!! I enjoyed this a lot!

Fantastic tutorial, maestro! Thank you, helps a lot. One question, though: Why do you deem it a matter 'of course' to 8va the penultimate A? Don't get me wrong, I am totally on board with that and understand about the "effect" of it. However, when Grieg wrote this, pianos already had that low A, yet he didn't write it. Why is it a matter of course to you, and would you recommend viewing it as a matter of course in a piano competition?
Beautiful. I believe I was concertmaster when you played this with the Juilliard Phil? or maybe a different year? anyway bravo
thanks!
Thank you, I'm going to apply that to a guitar piece.
nicholas cage is that you? lol i really like this tutorial. i'm learning this piece as part of my second year repertoire. I'm studying a bachelor of music at Stellenbosch in South Africa
Terrific Steinway D!
Some says The Grieg Concerto doesn't have the same technical challenges of let's say The Rach 3. That's true to a certain degree but not entirely. This piece isn't all about phenomenal technique. There are other challenges in this piece that require tremendous touch, sensitivity and subtle pedalling too, it's not all about grand virtuoso gestures. It's definitely one of my favourite Concertos and Cadenzas.
What would Abbey Whiteside suggest Jon? Didn't you study with her?
Not sure if anyone will you see this but if you do have any tips for the 8 over 7 during the theme section
