YES. WHY ARE WE SCREAMING. SHUT UP DON'T THINK ABOUT IT

The lackadaisical beginning, the tragic turn, the anger at an unfair world, the sorrow of things lost, the return to peace but with the knowledge that nothing will ever be the same, and a hopeful yet melancholic resolution -- I felt it all in this performance

Not a single key left without its proper resonance. Wonderful performance.

02:51 I've never heard of such an interpretation. Fantastic!

Going to see Sokolov was the best concert of my life. Living legend, as they say

A powerful interpretation...

Luke I love your interpretation so much. You have one of my favorite nocturne collections for sure, and I love how you play op.32 no.2. Your nocturnes all feel really clean to me. I don’t mean to say they are straightforward but rather they all posses what I love about the music.

A not so obvious melody. only a great performer like him can achieve such a performance! Great and fantastic pianist. Thanks!!

I really don't know why, but, this interpretation became one of my favourites off all time in just 5 seconds, amazing. I'm speechless.

The greatest performance of this Nocturne I've ever heard.

Never have I been moved by this piece as I have by this interpretation. Listening to this, I was flooded with emotion and what what I've experienced. This was stunning for me.

Que maravilla de pianista.....un genio total....

What could you possibly expect from Sokolov but perfection.....

out of this world!!: i was lucky enough to hear the same recital as the CD (sonata n.3, bagatelles and intermezzi) in bologna last summer. it really felt like he was playing every note for the first time, like he was discovering the music in front of me. i'm so lucky that this giant likes my town, i've already been able to hear him live 5 times: he's just perfect, with the hands of 25 year-old, the maturity and experience of a master, and the sheer joy in playing of a child. he's not only one of the greatest pianist to ever grace the instrument, but also the last apostle of the same russian school as Richter and Gilels, no one will ever be able to make the piano sing/vibrate quite like them. thanks DG for the great quality audio/video, i'd never heard this nocturne played so beautifully.

totally agree, listening to Sokolov (especially live) feels like being back in time, the sound he produces is a miracle more often than not. But hopefully the 'end' of this famous Russian school has not come yet - you should really listen to anything by Alexandra Dovgan. Although only being 13 or so she comes closest in sound, seriousness and 'musicality' to the great maestro. It's absolutely incredible, but actually she was honourfully pronounced by Sokolov himself as a (future) star, so no big surprise. I remember listening for the first time to some Rachmaninov Prelude played by her and I figured it was equal to Sokolovs performance, which really shocked me considering her age. Also her Beethoven is very mature and has no elements of showing off. So I'm very excited about her future and really do hope that she will keep up this attitude and good work...

My God I wish I could play like that. It's my dream to play like that.. so free... so natural..

Perhaps Chopin,s best nocturne beautifully played with excellent timing.

Honestly his intro is the best I’ve heard. I don’t really like his mid section compared to Rubinstein’s. Don’t get me wrong it’s an extremely beautiful interpretation and I like the nuance and the difference in atmosphere he brings, but Rubinstein’s performance for me will always be #1. With that being said this is in my liked videos and will be a performance i will come back to to study when I learn this piece. Truly eloquent phrasing.

What I don't like about this middle section is that it's too slow.

Just discovered him today bc i found a comment that said this pianist is similar to yunchan in many ways... and i love him already!

Speechless, let the music do the talking!

The way he rings the right handed melody so powerfully over the already powerful left is incredible.

I have attended today to a concert of Mr. Sokolov in Spain. Great performance!!!

Bravo maestro. Just, remarkable!

Has he ever performed in the U.S.? I’m in So Cal and would drive a distance to hear him…he’s definitely an iconoclast among pianists (in a good way). I don’t always agree with his interpretive approach to everything he plays, but I always respect it.

Well, what is there to say. He is just superb in everything he plays.

Absolument sublime! Des moments d'une intensité profonde et lumineuse! Bravo!

Best pianist alive. ❤️

28/5000 This man is a genius.

I keep a copy of the Nocturnes on my piano. At all times. It is THE 'manual' for any pianist. They change each time you play. That's because they become part of you. You see it here - tortuously in Grigory. This Nocturne is pulling him out of himself. He is performing who he is tonight. Any Nocturne - but for me all of them ...To choose one - for today..........say....13th in C Min pls.

Thanks for your comment. I must note that I still have a 12 inch 78 rpm shellack record of Horowitz playing three of these nocturnes (RCA, 1950). I played these when I was a little boy and they are unbelievable. They transcend Chopin's notation.

I beg you for more Sokolov videos please ❤️

too much beauty to handle

Incredible!

I wouldn't say it's my favorite approach to this piece, but it's insanely intriguing

How clear is that melody!?

Pianists play notes, horowitz played phrases, this guy plays whole pieces

In a valiant effort into be musical,the Maestro takes liberty with a slow tempo, especially the middle f minor section. If one compares the 1950's Rubenstein performance, it shows the essential nature of how important tempo is. Chopin should never be dragged. When Maestro Sokolov brings the tempo up a bit it makes a tremendous difference. Of course his interpretation is his own and I must respect it.

i too find myself agreeing with you on the needless slower tempo...

Unsurpassed! I´m quite certain of it!

Other performances of this make it sound like a carnival song covered in sticky caramel apple. Sokolov shows that it's a passionate longing on a hazy summer evening of the bygone carnival.

ALL OF THEM 😆

Pure poésie. ....
