At 1:35 Bernstein plays a wrong note.He plays “a” instead of “c” (Bar 25)
.I have always wondered about this………
I like Bernstein’s wrong note more than the original version. Did he intend
to do that?
Absolutely beautiful. It’s probably just me, but it seems to hard to
imagine that this movement which sounds so typically sombre of Shostakovic
to be written to celebrate and premier at his son’s graduation ceremony.
Eitherway, really lovely.
This reminds me so much of the second movement of Rach’s 2nd Piano
Concerto. Just Beautiful.
Yeah, it’s pretty obvious where the inspiration stems from
I find this piece very mysterious. There’s something really profound about
it… and such beauty.
This is the only neoclassical concerto movement I can actually play, and
it’s also one of the most beautiful concerto movements of all times 🙂
Been listening to so much Prokofiev lately, I sometimes forget. Prokofiev
is a lot of fun, but Shostakovich is just operating on another level IMO.
He just cuts right to the heart of me.
1:35 I have two editions and one says a and one says c
*neoromantic
Such beauty, just close your eyes and see what your minds eye shows YOU.
Where am i?
i literally just noticed as i listened and it really threw me off! but its
still a beautiful recording 🙂
I remember hearing this on a BBC documentary about Leo Tolstoy.
Does anyone else hear the error at bar 103, beat 3? 6:28.
around 4:50 Rachmaninoff moment…
Eu amo esse concerto papa piano de Shostakovich, Não paro de escutar.
Poderia tocar ad infinitum … seria maravilhoso a eternidade assim!
Actually i neuer saw a Video with over 270 likes and no dislikes. I think
this says it all.
Used to spend hours listening while reading music scores. It was all LPs
back then. And a music library full of scores. Cataloged in a rather
unusual British cataloging system. +UMKC Conservatory of Music and Dance
YouTube’s advertisements are a STUPID intrusion into this great music.
the rachmaninov style :D
full of deep emotions…
full of deep emotions…
Silly american interpretation. Bernstein is not capable to understand
Shostakovich’s music. He plays for public=for applause. Reclame of himself
instead of real Shostakovich’s music 😛
The best perfomance was made by Dmitry Shostakovich himself with Moscow
Radio Symphony Orchestra, conductor Alexander Gauk (recorded in 1958 year).
