ポリーニのテンペストを聴いて、完璧な演奏だと思った。でも、解釈を極限まで高めた作りものの様にも感じた。初めてリヒテルの演奏を聴いた時、Beethoven に、こんな美しい曲があったんだと知らされて、それからBeethoven の聴き方が変わった。そして、川の流れの様な、澱みのないピリスの演奏！癒されます。

Yes, very dynamic and passionate. She can produce any piano pieces as exactly written. She has a very immense ability of retelling the story.

Eccezionale Maria Joao Pires, tra le più grandi del mondo!

La meilleure version! sans commentaire! sensibilité,toucher,phrasé,analyse de la pièce,équilibre,tempo,caractère,technique, tout y est! absolument tout! quelle artiste!!!

Maria, you are a miracle.

Elegante e misurata nella forma. Toccante nell'interpretazione composta e senza sbavature

Rendering more than great justice to a really difficult but absolutely beautiful musical creation by Beethoven.

Excelente. Magnífico concepto del ritmo, tan descuidado por los concertistas clásicos. Bravissima...!!!

Sublime, just Sublime♥♥♥♥♥♥♥she made this sonata hers 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹

One of the best renditions ever!!

extraordinaire Maria J.Pires:elle joue avec une grande humilité c'est la sa gloire;elle respecte avec amour ce qu'elle interprete

no doubt, imho she is the best living classic piano player. no exhibitionism, no frills. love her.

She is a wonder in live performance...this is beautiful playing here...

❤ Calidad. ❤

hace años y años que escucho a excelentes pianistas de todo el mundo interpretando a Beethoven,.- Es la primera vez que escucho, y no se como se me pasó, esta magnífica visión que da María Pires de ésta Sonata.- Siempre me opongo a las irritantes comparaciones pero no encuentro otra.- Es como "escuchar!" los frescos de la Sixtina después de su restauración.-

That third movement...astounding.

Very expressive, sensitive and melodic.Lovely dynamic range. There's no doubting it; Maria lets Beethoven's score speak for itself - no selfish melodramatic demonstrations as so many pianists do when trying to place their mark on this sonata. The third movement just flows and the gentle parts are so gently executed. Beautiful! This is truly music for music's sake. Thanks for uploading.

Quelle sensibilité ! J'adore...

her approach to the first movement is clearly announcing opus 57.. the same statement of despair. Stunning.

*Beautifully performance Sonata No. 17 ♫❤ Recently I watched an interview with Maria João Pires, and I realized that it was not only an outstanding musician and pianist, but also a wonderful person with great wisdom and pleasant disposition. ツThank you greetings from Poland*

Best one to play this sonata, so perfectly played.

Your rendition of 'The Tempest' is my favorite. Well done.

Fantastico. Gracias a youtube conocemos estos magníficos intérpretes. Cada día un nuevo descubrimiento.

Fantastic!! Love Beethoven and Maria João!

The pace - the key pressure - perfection, as always from Pires

She plays like a goddess.

Suavidade de som! Magia de teclas!

Absolutely wonderful!

Food for the soul! Brilliant!

Excelente

En dialogo continuo fluye el pensamiento entregando imágenes perfectas cuando, sublime el pensamiento genera formas y paisajes. Se sostiene el impacto producido en su momento, se percibe el sentimiento, la brisa, la palabra y el suspiro se capta. Bellísimo

This is a good reference. I don't always agree with her view of certain music, especially her Chopin, but here, listening to the Allegretto (last movement) of The Tempest, I'm glad to hear her not "banging" the keyboard as so many pianists do on the last movement of The Tempest. A very nice performance.

Wonderful

I love this song.... It's just beautiful. She plays it impeccably. Bravo. My favorite is the way she plays the third movement.

Excellent!

Finally! movement 3 played truly beautifully and not like a mechanical piece of crap :)

This, and the rhapsody in blue are my two goals as to what I want to play on piano. My teacher just ordered this so I can start to learn it but rhapsody may be a little into the future. I will do it though. And my music will be heard by people just like you guys someday.

Oh wow!!!!!

AMAZING!!!!!!

I can't believe someone actually disliked this. The nerve.

Maria has such a good interpretation for this piece! Her style is different from Daniel Barenboim's and they are both lovely. It's very interesting to discover different understanding from different musicians. Bravo!

Bravo!

If you have the Schnabel editions (or even the Schirmers edition), the Beethoven piano sonatas, they are split between 2 books. This one is the last sonata in Book 1.

Maria João Pires 👍👍👍

Well done! Just what I needed after a rather long day.

ADORABLE!

magistral

excellent!

Great!

감동스러워요!

Wollte nur mal einen DEUTSCHEN Kommentar zwischenschieben: Beethoven is genial!

I just have 2 reservations: The 1st is the speed of the opening arpeggio in the 1st&2nd movements. I feel they're too rapid. My 2nd reservation are the turns in the 2nd movement (see 10th bar). Beethoven was very specific; an 8th note tied to a 32nd note followed by a triplet of 64th notes, ending in two ascending 32nd notes; the 1st of these last 2 notes is not a dotted 32nd followed by a 64th as Maria plays it. Listen to Richter & Pollini play it & you'll see. I still adore Pires' performance!

The opus 31. no. 2 "Tempest" is the 17th sonata by order of listing. By order of completion, this would be ranked 20th. The opus 49 no. 1 and 2 Sonatas 19 and 20) were composed five or six years earlier, and Beethoven completed Opus 31. no. 3 (listed number 18) before he completed this one.

It makes me want to read The Tempest of Shakespeare.

Er, well...it is the 17th out of Beethoven's 32 piano sonatas. It was published as part of his Op. 31, which is a set of three piano sonatas. It is the second sonata in that set, hence "Op. 31, No. 2". It' really not that complicated.

The allegretto is really pretty.

I'm sorry,but I don't get your description. Is it number 17 or number 2 ? I know for sure it's op 31 no 2. Something does not add up.

MJP vc. faz o piano cantar!!! Vc. é brilhante.

You Are Lucky My Friend My Mobile Battery Is 57% Only And That Prayer Would Go On For 2 Hours

@Bill Alexander I am so happy that I am not a musicologist and just listen to the music instead of being masturbating my mind with minimal details and comparing this interpretation with that of any other player.

Zetsuen no Tempest

РАСПРАВИВ КРЫЛЬЯ НАД МОРЕМ ГОРЯ 🌠🔥 МЕТЕОРОМ ПРОНЕСТИСЬ

I don't miss Backhaus here at all

3rd movement @ 16:..

16:06

I prefer my way of playing it xD she's too slow for me in some parts where I want to feel the storm..

Not my taste at all! Listen to Hélène Grimaud much better, IMHO! Solomon (Cutner), Wilhelm Backhaus and Friedrich Gulda are "my" Beethoven pianists! Just compare

Hm, maybe a bit too restrained - Ludmilla Beethoven, perhaps.
