But wait, the audience just hit the jackpot here. Listening to Yuja play anything is a privilege, but all 4 Rach concertos plus Rhapsody on a Theme or Paganini? That is just insane. Add Philadelphia Symphony to that, too. Absolutely mind blowing stuff.

Respeto tu postura que el concierto 4 en sol m es tu favorito de hecho durante muchos años disfruté de ese tormentoso y agitado concierto una fabulosa versión del genialísimo pianista italiano Michelangelo Benedetti PERO en la misma grabación en el catálogo explica la olvidada obra y sus circunstancias decía que este concierto supone un retroceso en la carrera del compositor ruso o sea que es la oveja negra respecto a sus 3 hermanos restantes. A mí no me desagrada pero tengo muy claro que no tiene la riqueza melódica ni la complejidad de cualquiera de los 3 restantes El orden de prelación de los 4 conciertos es más que EVIDENTE y los he escuchado más veces que las 9 sinfonías Beethovenianas y es este: Concierto num 2 en Do menor op.18 Concierto num 3 en Re menor op.30 Concierto num 1 en Fa#menor op.1 Concierto num 4 en Sol menor op.40

As a musician, I believe this might be because playing in an orchestra is simply very relaxing. Obviously, being a soloist is always fun and great, but it tends to be a very different experience. There's just something so cozy and fulfilling about being one nearly indistinguishable cog of a greater machine that makes some fantastic music happen for an hour or two. It really feels like the responsibility is carried by everyone at once rather than individually.

I'm like 10 minutes into the video and I've only just realized that this is an official Carnegie Hall channel. It feels almost strange to watch a classical music video from a channel of a big, prestigious venue that's as well done as this one. Most are just an older gentleman talking for 40 minutes straight but this one looks like something a normal KZreadr would do. I'm absolutely loving the fact that there are people in the classical music industry who understand how marketing works and who are trying to make it more mainstream and appealing to a larger audience.

I love Yuja, not only for her music, but also for her personality, so sincere and charming!

Yuja is a beast! She’s an athlete when she plays. Her outfits made sense because she needs to move, not too encumbered with fabric, and allow her skin to breathe… like athletes. You can tell that she’s so comfortable and enjoys the music.

I did my thesis on this field. Physiological synchrony, the rate in which physiological data (HR in this case) changes at the same time, can tell us about engagement and enjoyment. Rach 3 cadenza at 12:16 shows such instance. You can see this as an objective proof that people really enjoyed it. Taking a quick glances at the graph at 3:23 I'd also say that the performance was amazing: Synchrony between performers can also be indicative of the quality of the performance. But this is hardly a surprise, we have masters at work.... It will be an interesting paper to read about if they decide to publish a study on this.

Great work @carnegiehall -fantastic to see a Classical Music institution making a youtube video that's innovative & fascinating (and also, most surprisingly, not at all cringe!) - actually makes you feel better and more excited about the music rather than embarrassed. 💯

This is such a great video and of course a historical moment in the history of music! Thank you everyone who played their part in this incredible experiment. Yuja, you are a diamond ❤ I had a chance to sing with a choir at Carnegie a few years ago. Performing on the same stage that had hosted Rachmaninov and many other wonderful musicians made me feel extremely lucky and honored. Thank you Carnegie Hall!

I don't think this tells us much. I was at the concert and it was absolutely stupendous, Yuja was magnificent and YNS got a superb Ormandy-like sound from the orchestra - just GORGEOUS. What happened during the Rach 2 early on was a guy collapsed, the concert was halted for a half hour while he was taken to Columbia for heart work. I was happy to hear before the Rach 3 that he was OK. But I think THAT'S why Yuja's heart rate increased after the early part of Rach 2. It was a very unnerving occurrence and it must've been scary. The show went on. But at a higher heart rate. Of course YNS heart rate correlates with physical exertion - no surprise - and he is the antithesis of Reiner (I bet his heart rate barely moved when he conducted!). No surprise either that heart rate goes up with volume which is usually related to emotional climax - certainly in Rachmaninoff. Take the end of the Poem of Ecstasy - of course your heart is racing. Maybe it is news to people that listening as well as performing is a physical act - at least for those who really are listening as opposed to just hearing................

5:02: Not 233% higher than her resting heart rate, but 233% of her resting heartrate.

As both a pianist and an engineer, this is such a cool idea. And just from personal experience, I would guess that with passages like the black page, Yuja knew it was a 'difficult' spot so she practiced it so often and well that she could quite literally do it in her sleep. Whereas less often performed, or more melodic passages will always require more emotion and thought, and thus higher heartrate. And now excuse me while I go try to find a recording of this concert because both Rachmoninoff and Yuja are incredible, but especially together.

Very cool analysis. Need more technology combined with music

This was really interesting for me a a nurse! Also for me as a patient, who had very unstable blood pressure, vasculitis and Borrelia in the nervous system - I could not listen to happy or sad, only calm tones - any emotion turned up my blood pressure and intensity of symptoms - in this video I was shown this principle in a very concrete way, it was very special.

For Our the Love of Music, our hearts cannot lie. Classical music is my favorite music because those unplugged instruments were designed to touch us deep inside like no giant concert speaker ever could. String instruments go right to my core. Century old instruments and the songs designed around them will never go out of style as long as we have beating hearts. ❤

So cool!

Small correction at 5:00 it’s not 233% higher than her resting heart rate. It’s 233% higher from 0 compared to her resting heart rate. If we’re using 62 as the baseline, then 100% higher from 62 is 124, 200% higher from her resting heart rate is 186. So it’s actually 140%( give or take some) faster than her resting heart rate.

I love Yuja, she’s so down to earth.

As someone who is a classical music and data science enthusiast, this is legit cool! I hope we have more researches like this on other pianists.

wow, love the data analysis

Fascinating!!!!!

I think I would sell my soul to see this performance. Yuja Wang was incredible live at the Kennedy -- I cannot imagine how beautiful it would be to hear her play Rach...

April 1 is Rach's Birthday😮. It is April 2 now here. I should have listened to the 4 concertos and rhapsody yesterday😭. Damn, wish I was able to witness her. I even saw a short released the day after showing each bow wearing different dresses. Happy Birthday, Rachmaninoff. Your concertoes were my light🙂.

…this is an incredibly brilliant excercise in research and comparative analysis…You Guyz did really well I think both the pianist ánd conductor were astounded and pleasantly intrigued, perhaps móre than surprized, by the findings and behavioural patterns indicated and/or coming forth either instinctively or cognitively… Absolutely amazing trip into the vast unknowns…(the brilliance of genial talent all integrated and challenged to the full to ‘nail it’ ‼️) For which you should be sincerely and admiringly applauded ~ ongoingly WELL DONE ‼️🥂✨💫🌟 🪖

Heart beat this, heart beat that... ye, very interesting, really, but the fact that she played those 5 pieces in one concert is another proof that this woman is not from this planet! She is a gift from God!

Incredible experiment! Rachmaninov has always been my favorite composer and Yuja, of course, my favorite pianist (let's be honest...person). I couldn't make it but ironically was in New York that week and there definitely was a certain energy encapsulating Carnegie. What a mic drop on the realm of music - rather, she could have picked the Steinway up and dropped it after, had she wanted. As a pianist, yes, always wear a tracker upside down 😉 💐

I’ve heard Trifonov and Nézet Saguin last fall in Paris Philharmony, with the Philadelphia orchestra, in Rach 4 and symphonia 2. It was the best musical experience in my entire life ! Yannick is an exceptional talent, the sound he managed to obtain with his amazing musicians is impossible to put in words. Rachmaninov would be so proud and in awe to listen to them. And Trifonov, well…he is one of the best pianist of all time. I can remember having heard those 5 works in two evening at the « Festival de la Roque d’Anthéron » but by different pianists (Lugansky, Hamelin and Guy). Hamelin played the Rhapsodie and then Rach 3, everybody was very impressed at that time. And then, Wang plays all 5 in a row… She has superhuman abilities and stamina. But musically, I prefer by far Russian pianist in Russian music.

This is so cool

Saw her in San Francisco - what a treat! Once in a generation talent!

She's AMAZING !! 🎹🎶🎵

this is so cool

What a great experiment! If you add in respiratory and EEG for cross correlations, you will see even more emotional responses across the board, and the impact it does for everyone there! She’s one of the greatest pianists alive! Thank you for sharing!

Beautiful ! many-classical musicians underrate him , they feel important to criticize . the noble heart is what counts as fantastic Yuja said . Most of Rachmaninov compositions are delicious and deep emotional and that is unique .

OMG i didn't know they were going to do this!!!

Her virtuosity is undeniable. My fave is that she always looks like she’s walking the Grammys red carpet. I can’t wait to see her in a more popular music platform. Maybe even be a judge on Rupaul’s drag race, something tells me she’d enjoy the experience and fashion. She’s fierce. ❤ also I hope she’s an animal lover 🌱✌🏼

Very cool!

Very interesting study. It all demonstrates what a deeply emotional person Rachmaninoff was, despite his somewhat austere demeanour. Wonderful music, wonderful pianist and orchestra.

I'm honored to be there to witness history. It was the greatest time spent. I was wondering what Yujia's heart rate was when the incident happened in the audience which caused disruption of the concert, and while she was waiting to restart the 3rd mvmt of Rach 2. Curious if she was a bit nervous or very calm (NOT bothered by the incident in the audience at all) After all, she picked up where she left off and finished Rach 2 seamlessly with the orchestra.

Didn’t someone literally have a heart attack ? Complete speculation but I wonder if the increase in heart rate from the music is what did it..

JUST WOW!!!😊

I always wonder what goes on in a musicians mind when performing, and this is a really cool insight! Hope it's done for more composers' works!

I love Yuja Wang.

this is similar to a race car drivers heartbeats. pretty incredible! mine would be 175 bpm from stage fright alone. Lol so if you wanna stay fit play piano at Carnegie hall.

Yuja and Rach were made in heaven.

Regarding premiering all four concerti in a single event, I'd like to note that back in 2019 here in the Philippines, a pianist by the name of Raul Sunico also performed all 4 Rachmaninoff piano concerti. I think it's the first ever documented feat in history. (minus the Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini)

A fantastically interesting concept, and data set. I have yet to witness her playing live, but will eventually get there if this becomes possible. Perhaps an even more compelling data set would be actual brainwave tracking, although attaching the interface hardware would be much more technically challenging, but not impossible. Lightweight, discretely wearable EEG interface tech, and sophisticated software for extracting and interpreting the brainwave signals has radically improved in recent times.

Good video

There's something very intriguing about Yuja's personality that she keeps me riveted just listening to anything she says

Yuja = the GOAT, no doubt.

WOW

Very interesting. I think a less experienced performer would have much higher heart rates at the beginning of every concert from nerves. Yuja’s heart suggested she was never nervous, and she didn’t mention experiencing any anxiety whatsoever. I think this might be the most significant difference between someone who can handle life as a soloist, and most people - who can’t. Memorising, and delivering note perfect readings of these extremely difficult works is clearly an absolute doddle for child prodigies like Yuja Wang - possibly one of the greatest pianists of all time.

Yuja Wang, u will always be famous

This is the proof that music is not only unbelievably powerful, but also a universal language. Incredible

When Yuja going in the concert hall the audience heart ❤️ beat is on 200! Best in the 🌎
