7 years forward in May 19, 2024, I saw you play this masterpiece in Vancouver. You have matured and play the same brilliance and clarity as you did in this video. Bravo, Bruce Liu!!!
I first got to know Bruce as a wonderful pianist through this performance, and to see him win the 18th International Chopin Piano Competition puts a large smile on my face. For me at least, he fully deserves it. Congratulations!
Exactly same goes for me! I discovered him through this particular performance of Kapustin, and when I heard he was competing in the International Chopin Competition, I was rooting for him through the entire way.
Bravo!
Bravissimo!
Same here! For me, this is the best interpretation of this piece in youtube.
Also, back then, not so many result of him if we searched "Xiaoyu Liu". Only from Chopin competition I knew his name is Bruce haha

yeah he has improved a lot, his Kapustin still needs some polishing but Chopin he has mastered for sure.
Such a brilliant, versatile musician. He lives anything he plays.
Xiaoyu played it so entertainingly and with ease. He was raised by Kapustin's piece himself. A very magnetic performance!
crystal clear : a very sophisticated interpretation
We met a genius pianist, and we listened to his performance, and we are impressed with his performance.
His performance is an order of magnitude
I love how how you play this piece, measured but jazzy. You do kapustin proud. Can’t wait to hear it in Vancouver in 2024.
How was Vancouver 2024?
@@LiquidTurboIT DID NOT DISAPPOINT!!!!
I was there, too, yesterday!!!
One of the best interpretations of this piece I heard. Bravo!
except for Kapustin himself, he knows how to play his own pieces best.

What an interpretation!! I can’t stop listening to…Loved!!
I've been working back from his Chopin comp. performances. Now (3 years ago) he's morphed into Oscar Petersen from the 1980's. I didn't see this coming.
It will be interesting to see if he ultimately puts more time into jazz or classical.
Is there anything he can't play perfectly? Unbelievable.
Kapustin seems like a fascinating composer.
This is indeed 10 out of 10. a very engaging performance with a much wider dynamic contrast compared to the way Yuja Wang or the others play it. Very well done to this pianist!
I really like it, 🤩 superbe, he is really living inside the music, very suitable for him, great🎵💐🙏🎶🌺🙌
A stunning performance of a marvelous piece. 10 out of 10, many thanks, Arthur.
Ein leistungsfähigerer Pianist spielt nicht nur das ganze Lied, sondern auch das Lied spielt zusammen mit ihm.
I love this. Thank you Bruce 💞
He has the perfect feeling of jazz, but never looses the refined beautiful details, fantastic performance!
Jazz doesn't have refined beautiful details?
If you have experimented the jazz feeling, you can notice that he doesn't play with it. Also he is very irregular, without a proper organization of the musical elements.
But anyway, it is a very clear performance and this man surely can play much better in the future
Thank you for pointing that out! I felt there’s something not quite right, like not tight enough, so thanks for putting my thoughts in words!
@@jorgedavid2568 That is kind of Kasputin though. It's a weird mix of jazz harmonies, impressionism, and that ridged Russian style. I think it's easy to be tempted to take a piece like this and just have your own way with it, but it's hard to stay true to the score and still pull it off, which i feel he did quite well.
And he just we in the Chopin Piano Competition!
wonderful pianism!
This performance made me really appreciate this piece. I've seen many less convincing. As Mark wrote here, this combines great jazz feeling with pianistic nuance.
Kapustin is one of my favourite composers since years, but i always thought the variations are somehow rather dull musically compared to his other fantastic pieces. I still prefer his Sonata No. 2 and 6, Etudes Op. 40, Preludes Op. 53, Suite in the Old Style Op. 28, Concerto for Two Pianos and Percussion, etc to these variations.
But i understand why this piece of all of Kapustin's became almost commonplace repertoire in competitions, with how it presents so many different jazz styles in its variations. In any case, I'm happy to see Kapustin played in competitions at all, and even more increasingly in recitals and by amateurs.
For me he is the Russian Ghershwin

Brilhante, maravilhoso.
Incredible version, thank you
300번은 들은 것 같아요 이 곡을 연주하는 유튜브에 있는 모든 영상을 각각 여러번 봤지만 이 버전이 1등….
Excellent.bravo!
Super clean
Best rendition out there!
This piece seems to be written for him because you feel the pleasure he has to play☄️☄️☄️☄️🌈🌈🌈⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️😻😻😻😻
Belle musicalité dans un rendu très rythmé et avec une couleur exceptionnelle.
he good pianist!!
Great performance! I think this is the best performance of this piece other than the one played by the composer.
Kapustin plays his own pieces best. Always ridiculous tempo.
top 3 is definitely kapustin, this one and yeol eum son
@@bjornviir3333nah kapustins own playing lacks nuance and is pretty stale. happens a lot when composers play their own compositions
这首曲子适合在浪漫的餐厅里吃饭的时候听
Splendid
I like his Toccatina superb too.
好有异域风味的音乐!
Wow!! I really like it) 💞💞
Straordinari musica ed esecutore!
Congrats to the winner of the 18th Chopin Competition!!!
Nice. 1930s lounge chair jazz. His arched back looks w/ a stooped head looks a little weird for Classical pianist. Was this piece part of the competition? Does anyone recognize what the main melody is? It's a nice meandering piece to me.
Yes I recognize, I thought too for the first time listening any kapustin work that it was quite hard to understand it. But after some time listening to the pieces over and over you get it eventually and it becomes natural for the ears. It’s the same as hearing any Bach fugue for example, quite hard to hear all the voices. That’s how complex kapustin works are, and beautiful..
The main melody is the same as the one from the Rite of Spring
4:38 Rite of Spring 😂
와
❤🎶👏👏
2'44 🥰
지린다 ㄹㅇ ㅋㅋ 최고임
올
I like his playing, but it is very measured/politely played. Could have had a bit more improvisatory sweep and drama - after all it is variations on the rite of spring, not exactly a mild mannered work, nor should works in jazz style be that way either.
You can be a judge in a bar, not here
I can be a judge where I like, who made you the judge of that… surely that’s exactly what’s angering you, you are your own worst enemy
Did he get any prize at the Arthur Rubinstein Competition?
No prize 😭just finalist …. and now he is the winner of 18th Chopin competition !! 🥇🏆
@@bruceliufans How he could have not placed at least in the top 3 is beyond my understanding...
@@thestratford51 I agree with you… He was great at Rubinstein Competition ..
Now I’m so happy about his success. :)
Congrats on your choices. Not everyone get to go to a Rubinstein. NEAT SHIRT TOO. Bye Like.
와 원곡 제외 이 해석이 제일 맛있다
Who won?
Szymon Nehring, from Poland. I personally prefer Bruce’s playing way more, though.
Very ibvuiys superior technique. But variations on what? Noise? Because that is the only answer available to the listener.
if that were the case he wouldnt be playing it
Pourquoi joue-t-il systématiquement les parties "walkin' bass" main gauche en noires piquées et pas liées ? ça ne se fait pas en jazz, ce n'est pas de la musique classique ! ça fait "poc poc poc poc poc poc..." 😄
