Perfect tempo. Yuja is the best interpreter I ever heard of this dramatically piece. It is the Russian soul mirrored. She is playing with all her soul and body all together.

I understand that Lang lang’s proficiency and dynamics are beyond compare. But i cant even describe how amazing Yuja Wang is. Her consistency and balance and the way she emphasizes this piece and any pieces without altering the melodies is mind-blowing to me. Every note is clear and carries a characteristic with it. She plays gracefully with her beauty and soul.

Ah, Rachmaninoff & Yuja?! The Classical Review Wang’s powerful virtuosity stronger on flash than depth in Boston recital May 13, 2018 By Aaron Keebaugh Yuja Wang performed Friday night at Jordan Hall for the Celebrity Series. Photo: Robert Torres ... There is no doubting Yuja Wang’s technique at the keyboard. The Chinese-born pianist is capable of unleashing torrents of octave runs, and her left-hand figures supply an almost orchestral sense of depth and gravity to her sound. She clearly shapes every phrase, and her notes resonate with a ping. ... Still, there were times Friday night when one wondered if Wang only saw some of this music as just showpieces for her mesmerizing technical skill. Her selections of Rachmaninoff Preludes and Études-tableaux, though played deftly, didn’t always flower with the vocal quality so integral to the composer’s style. Wang takes a full-bodied approach to Rachmaninoff, and she renders his textures in multi-dimensional shapes. In the Prelude in G minor, Op. 23, No. 5, her strong left hand figures tethered the march rhythms to the ground. The Prelude in B minor, Op. 32, No. 10 unfolded in Debussyian washes of color. In the Étude-tableau in E-flat minor, Op. 39, No. 5, Wang’s harmonies and bass lines crashed together in blistering clusters. But in each, Rachmaninoff sense of sweeping grandeur went largely unexplored. Three of Ligeti’s Etudes, which filled out the program, were similarly muscular but lacking in probing musicality. Wang’s running chromatic figures blurred into a fog in Etude No. 9, “Vertige,” and in Etude No. 1, “Désordre,” churning Bartókian rhythms propelled the music ever forward. In Etude No. 3, “Touches bloquées,” Wang’s performance needed more of the intimacy that this music requires. Though Wang played the work quickly-as marked-the Etude’s halo-like harmonics, caused by the pianist keeping some of the keys depressed with the left hand while punching out syncopated figures with the right, failed to shimmer. Ligeti incorporated difficult passages into these works not as vehicles for showboating but to create ethereal musical tapestries. And throughout, it seemed as if Wang was playing Ligeti’s notes, not Ligeti’s music. ... The program will be repeated 8 p.m. Thursday night at Carnegie Hall in New York. carnegiehall.org.

Cette pianiste est l'une de mes préférées, quand elle joue on a l'impression qu'elle communique avec le piano comme si ils s'assemblaient et ne formait qu'une seule personne, je trouve cela absolument magnifique à voir et à écouter.

This piece makes my blood fizz like nothing else, especially when it is played perfectly, as it is here.

She is the only person that has played this correctly since Vladimir Horowitz did years ago and he and Rachmaninoff were friends. He took 4 minutes to complete it about the same speed as her. And There is a hidden melody in a small part that is difficult to bring out and she does it perfectly. It is only a few notes that are not really part of the main melodic theme but important nevertheless to a perfect performance. It takes an extreme amount of control to play this song and Horowitz was the only one that I have heard that has a classic recording of this that is probably the best and she comes very close and maybe even better.

Exactly. Very well put.

I love this interpretation. Very original and insightful. The technical execution was flawless and equally original. My noteworthy impressions: her discretion in the use of rubato is very calculated and intelligent and her unique focus on the harmonic subtleties and counter melody (particularly in 3rd section). Masterful.

It's not just the tempo that's so great about this interpretation, it's also her dynamics and articulation. It's a little too much pedal for my preference in the beginning, but overall her playing is so clear and vibrant, and is further complemented by her relatively slower tempo. Last but not least, the dynamics give the piece its liveliness, and adds lots of variation. I love her crescendos in particular. Bravo.

I was so ambitious, on my 2nd year 1st semester of studying piano, this was my recital piece... in the middle of the piece i had mental blocked, i faced the audience for about 10 seconds, looked at my family, and played it again from the start with so much anger in me, that everyone in the audience became so quite while i hammer and shook the grand piano... i was able to finish the piece, and with no slight of smile on my face, I stood up, bowed and walked out. Went to one of the piano rooms cried, and thought jumping from the 2nd floor, good thing my piano professor, hurriedly went to me, comforted me and said that I did just fine, and she brought me back inside the music hall. It happened last 2000 in Silliman University School of Music and Fine Arts in Dumaguete City, Philippines. I can think of it now and just totally laugh at it. I just wish cameras or phone cameras were cheap back in that olden days, could have captured one of the most memorable times of my life. :)

Love this tempo - it seems to me that many pianists today (and many conductors alike - Simon Rattle please note) just want to gallop through the music as fast as possible.

I dont get tired of watching her fingers and listening to her playing. She transmit the boldness and every feeling this piece was meant to have. This lady wakes me up but fills my heart with tenderness at the mellow transition of 1:21 her fingers are tender and delicate, and the piano becomes a symphony of soft and mellow strings. No one plays better than her. I await her performance in the Disney Center in Los Angeles.

She got creative and daring when she added a little touch to the score at 1:51 and at 2:00; love it and will play it that way; I think even Sergei would give her a thumbs up for that.

It was written in the score. She did not add anything. She played exactly what was written.

Magical…I played this in college decades ago and have been enamored with it ever since. But I hadn’t listened to it for years. Then, Yuja’s “Flight of the bumble-bee” showed up on a list of videos I was watching, I listened, was floored and had to see if she had performed Rachmaninoff’s prelude in G minor. I am so glad I searched for this, because her performance takes my breath away over and over. I listened to several others, including the composer himself, then came back and listened to Yuja again and her performance continues to take my breath away. From the moment she first touches those keys to the final, her richness of tone and phrasing transport. Her transition from the march to when she takes flight and soars through the lyrical section is like a dream sequence that continues to pull me in till I’m brought to tears by the soft landing back into the final, heroic, majestic march. Thank you, Yuja, for your incredible gift of interpretation, sharing the importance of every single note and throwing nothing away. You’re truly a gift.

I can watch this over and over. Bravo, Yuja!

Wonderful rendition of this my favorite Prelude By Rachmaninov.

This is actually the best recording I’ve ever heard of this. It’s widely played - badly. Even most pros have trouble getting on top of it. She nails it. Great March tempo, not a drag race. Clean, expressive, gorgeous languid middle section, meaty sound in the bass. Brava!

Oh my God this is the best song I ever heard yuja wang's performance is so good

Absolutely brilliant. What a great piece of music, wonderfully played.

Fantastic Performance! Colourful Sound and excellent control! Thanks a lot!

This is easily the best performance of this piece I've ever heard

What an amazing pianist she is. There are so many good pianists these days, young and established but Yuja is unsurpassed. A fantastic performance, absolutely stunning - I can't wait to see her live in the not too distant future. Hopefully in London.

Impeccable! I just do not see any way that that can be improved upon! Bravo Yuja!!

This is fantastic, I've never heard this piece played this well. So refreshing 🙂

Outstanding Yuja has come so far

Het playing is filled with a fire! It’s really great to listen to! I’m really happy Yuja wang exists and plays everything the way she does!

Ultra-delightful playing as usual with everything sounding (still smelling...)freshly painted

Legendary!!! Absolutely refreshing clarity

Agreed!

This video is very interesting to me as it highlights Yuja's notoriously superb technique. She maintains a posture and economy of body movement, even through some fairly intense dynamic contrasts. Her arms and hands are doing nearly all the work and her torso and head help out only when the fortissimo reaches its most intense. Yet we do see expressiveness and intensity, and of course those hands and fingers blurring as they move faster than our eyes can follow.

Yula Wang does not only play miraculously, Yula Wang herself is a miracle

always great to enjoy your recitals, chere Maestra Yuja!
