I have listened to this for years. It, among other of Valentina’s recordings, has changed my life. I never truly understood this piece until I heard her play it and I can say that is true about so many others. It has opened a world of possibilities to me as a musician. She is incredible.

the beautiful sensitivity of touch that Valentina has in this performance makes the opening movement seem to float so gracefully along, dreamily. Then, the 2nds movement so cheerfully wakes you back up, and says get ready for a quick (but adventurous) trip back home, and Valentina then pounces into that great, rush-home, final movement. I've never hear another pianist do *quite* the dramatic performance of this one. There are more than a few really great pianists out there, but for this particular piece, Lisitsa's performance is the most dramatic.

One of the best pianists in the world, if not the best! Thank you for sharing ❤️

Спасибо вам❤ вы абсолютно гениальны ! И в отличие от пешек и марионеток имеете свою гражданскую позицию. Это заслуживает глубокого уважения. Дай вам Бог здоровья. Как будет возможность - обязательно приду на ваш концерт

How could anyone not love this she is the best musician I’ve heard. Would love to see what she could compose.

Yea I agree, she uses every technique right down to sliding the keys for that perfectly smooth transition between notes.... amazing!

Valentina Lisitsa always chooses best speed. Her soul is balanced.

This is the best recording of the 3rd movement that I've heard in over 20 years.

Valentina simply is my favorite piano performer. No one else plays this powerful (and fast), while still being precise and moving.

This is one of the best performance of this melody that I have heard in my entire life.

Эту музыку можно слушать бесконечно, как и бесконечно восхищаться гениальностью Бетховена. 💐

El primer movimiento de la Sonata Claro de Luna es la pieza más bella y maravillosa de Beethoven. Sublime e infinita, y, a la vez nostálgica y desoladora. El segundo movimiento, sencillo y complementario. El tercero, es todo fuerza y emociones desbordantes. Esta obra, interpretada por Valentina, es portentosa y refleja en su totalidad lo que debió sentir y vivir el mismo compositor al crearla. Gracias por este regalo.

Faz 5 anos que volto aqui para ver novamente essa interpretação. Nunca encontrei melhor. Valentina Eternizou

Must return every few months to refresh this vision of Olympus; both Beethoven's and Valentina's. Sublime!

Absolutely love her to play my favorites. She gives them life! ❤️

Simply amazing. I often heard Beethoven purposely wrote his works difficult to play and few musicians wanted to work with him due to their challenging nature. I think you would have amazed him. Thank you Valentina. Bravissima!!

As a disney child, who's now an adult facing hardships, I truly appreciate this ❤ it keeps the child in me warm and happy. Have a good night's sleep everyone.
