I finally have to admit that he won justly.
He made the piano sing, cry, feeling sad, happy,
And just like that, this Scherzo is new again
He has such beautiful hands, to watch.

One in 7 billion. inconceivable talent
It is such a shame that no prize was awarded for the best Scherzo. He would have gotten it.
私は素人です。初めてショパンコンクールを知り、視聴しました。彼を知ることができ、彼の心温まる魅力的な素晴らしい演奏を視聴でき感謝です。彼の奏でる演奏で心が楽しみ人生が豊かになりました。音楽に国境はありません。手放しで拍手を送ります。
Best Scherzo of the competition for me. Congratulations Bruce!
When I heard it for the first time I was like "this dude is going to play in the finals". Some comments said the same. He is the winner now. This Scherzo is perfect here.

I called it aswell, it was his competition to lose after his performance in the first round. If he executed throughout the rest of the rounds, I just knew he would win.
A real moment for him in Stage I, this was when I knew he'd win!! AND HE DID, GO BRUCE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Handsome Bruce. Beautiful piece
Scherzu means joke.never heard anything so perfect,, p0werful and so soft when needed.❤❤❤
That subtle thrust forward at 0:29
Bruce _ou simply stole my hearth❤
You have the best "touch" on the piano and such sensitivity!
That beautiful moment, starting at about 7,20
Absolutely astounding playing, his dynamics alone make this so beautiful
This Scherzo suits Bruce’s style a lot! Big congrats
this scherzo is incredible.. I'm glad that Chopin institute are uploading the separate recordings of Bruce for us to appreciate!
The best Scherzo in my life! Absolutely fantastic!
Having played this piece in college, I'm blown away. Such Tenderness😭😭❤️❤️
I was stunned by his right hand voicing in 10:23. Never expected main theme was brought out there. He’s got many unconventional musical ideas yet the way he delivers is very natural and subtle.

so good. so fresh. how does he keep everything in the air like that? really incredible playing
Bruce does not compete, he shares his joy and wonder with whoever will listen. Virtuoso skills beyond our imagination (until now!) bring alive every intense emotion felt and given to us by the youthful Chopin. Words fail me to express how exquisite is Bruce's realization of every tender mood, every rock-rolling abandonment, every dancing playfulness. It was such a privilege and enthralling experience to listen to all his performances, as I did on my 80th birthday yesterday. Thank you, Bruce, for your wonderful gift to me.

Zimerman was probably even more accurate when he played this at the Chopin Competition in 1975. But Liu is even more artistic with amazing dynamic range, thoughtful coloration and perfect pedaling.

Rubato is part and parcel of Chopin’s interpretation, that’s why Bruce ‘s playing and interpretation of this scherzo is marvellous 🤩 👍
For me, it was this scherzo making the winner.

great pianist Bruce!
Bruce’s performance is an order of magnitude, and far superior, and full of admiration and emotion, and comfortable to the ear and the mind
Beautiful playing.
So talented! Bravo ❤️🎼🌟
Genialny Bruce🎆
He amazes me every time i hear him.His game is stunning, son touche miraculous.Il a toujours une relecture de la partition très personnelle
And that ending!
This is one of the best performances of Scherzo no.4 I've ever heard
I Love this interpretation. The one downside is that the crowd starts clapping before the pedal is lifted.
素晴らしく優しい音色、しなやかな演奏です。Liu氏の音色はいつも心深く伝わってきます。
I have played this piece for many years and so I know it well. This is simply miraculous piano-playing and music-making. Even in places where I might make a different choice, the beauty of what he does is irresistible. Add a stunning technique and exquisite sound and this young man is, in my opinion, the greatest pianistic talent to come along since Yuja Wang.

@William I studied this Scherzo since my conservatory days. Zimerman is my idol. But I think Liu outdid him with this scherzo. Bruce used so many nuances, dynamic range , and power, that it left me totally breathless. It’s like hearing it for the first time! Bruce is going to be a big star very soon,

Just perfect ! Incredible how this amazing young pianist can play absolutely without miss anything 💯👏😍
너무나 부드럽고 깨끗하고 명료한 소리예요 ~~
2010年優勝のアブデーエワも、このスケルツォ四番の演奏が素晴らしかったと、小山実稚恵氏の言葉を思い出します。選曲の一つとしてショパンコンクールの優勝🏆️者になるための、良い意味で定番になりつつある難曲。😃🎹✨

I had heard the same piece of music performed by Hyunglock Choi. I could realized that how they gave somehow different emotions depending on who played it. For me, Choi's one was more touching like somewhere between joy and sad. Liu's one seems just bright, not nostalgic.
He's a wonderful pianist, but I must be jaded--I almost never get excited by newer competition winners, and Bruce is no exception. I'm not criticizing his play; I think the concert and competition stages have become artistically dessicated. I'd rather hear some newer music. I do have a very slight quibble regarding his playing, which is that his tonal palette seems a bit limited
Почему-то молодое поколение пианистов играет среднюю часть как похоронный марш
