Yuja is amazing to the point of beyond human. Her hands and fingers move faster and more accurately than ... light. I started watching her performances about a year ago and haven't stopped since! She throws her entire being into her performances, her musical talent and gifted hands, and her entire body. The performance becomes a veritable workout for her. The eighth wonder of the world.

To alexandracangiano: Yes. How could anyone disagree with you? I feel, though, that with everything she has going for her (perfect posture at the piano, complete absence of annoying, distracting facial "expressiveness", nice outfits [sometimes too nice!], excellent memory), it's a shame that her chosen way of bowing, often described as "iconic," can be better referred to as "idiotic." Too bad, because a gracefully elegant, feminine gesture of acknowledging her audience, besides doing her no harm, would "complete the picture" of this exceptionally beautiful woman's stage persona.

An excerpt from "bachtrack": "she can traverse the keyboard from end to end, shaping dynamics and adding rubato, with the perfect evenness unbroken. She can produce a pianissimo down to a whisper, so perfectly articulated that you can hear every nuance even in the giant space of Albert Hall...Wang does things that other pianists can't."

good description

Liszt was the "top dog" of the pianists in his time, was rich and made a fortune playing. In my humble opinion, however, his works are not, with rare exceptions, exceptional. He envied Chopin secretly (or nor so secretly) because he pulled out of his soul, in a few minutes, music with a quality that Liszt couldn't even dream of. But Liszt was the best piano player. This concerto is, in my opinion, typical Liszt. Lots of fireworks and a few melodies. Yuja, amazingly (or not so amazingly, because she is already amazing) turns this work in something better. Very specially the 2nd movement, the slow one, that many pianists churn out boringly, she manages to turn it into a poem of utmost beauty and sensibility. Heard it twice to be sure and felt "envouté" as the French say, as I can't find the word in English. Long live Yuja.

So this approaches Eminem. When you are great, greatness is expected. And I think that is what you are saying. When you say "not so impressively" it's not a dig in any sense of the word but just that excellence is normal in the world of greats like Eminem or Yuja or Victor Wooten (yes, covered rap/lyricist, symphonic, and jazz right there)

she is absolutely dominating that Piano.

Yuja’s appearance really matches the mood of this concerto

6:45 So tender, yet without sentimentality. So special!

Of the countless performances (both 'live' and recorded) I've heard of this concerto through the years, I don't hesitate for a moment to say that in every possible way, this one tops them all. When I stumbled upon this video, I didn't mean to watch it, since this concerto is so common and over-played, but after hearing her overwhelmingly masterful delivery of the opening measures, that was it - - I HAD to listen up to the end. My reaction? I just hope there's a CD of this unforgettable performance!

She is absolutely MAGNIFICENT! She’s one of the greatest pianists ever! Her brilliant virtuosity leaves me speechless. Her chemistry with this orchestra is pure magic.

She’s a very charismatic performer. However, Sviatoslav Richter’s recording of the two Liszt Concertos with the LSO from 1962 is far more nuanced. I think he was in his late 40s when it was recorded for Philips. I have had the vinyl early pressing since the mid 1970s. I took it into a hifi shop to demo on a top end system and they couldn’t believe the recording quality and dynamics. Born on March 20, 1915 and died on August 1, 1997 Sviatoslav Teofilovich Richter (Russian: Святослав Теофилович Рихтер, born in (Zhytomyr, Russian Empire, now Ukraine) was a Soviet pianist and widely recognized as one of the greatest pianists of the 20th century. He was well known for the depth of his interpretations, virtuoso technique and vast repertoire. I’m sure she will mature to his final level to become one of the best from the 21st century and hopefully still has her best years ahead of her.

A mix of arm rotation with the activation of the lat muscles in the back, in order to not tire the arm, plus it gives you extreme control over your octaves, with no real tension, this coupled with a careful movement and overall rotation of the torso with respect to where you play on the keyboard makes piano quite enjoyable, and somewhat easier after getting used to the movements.
