For several years, I did not understand why she won the competition. And for several years, I thought that I knew this ballade and that I was tired of listening to it. But hearing this performance has been and still is mind blowing. This is almost a complete different work from what I knew, this is Chopin like I have never heard it before. I am really happy that she won, she manages to display musical qualities in a unique kind, even among the best Chopin performers.

One of the best known interpretations of this piece IMO

@AshleyPaul 3 жыл бұрын

For me, it's the articulation she brings. She has a sparkle to her notes that other pianists don't have. It's so very much her sound that you can recognize from a mile away. She also plays it slower than just about everyone else, letting you really hear how dense this Ballade is, where many pianists try to hide the density. She's enormously technically skilled, but she doesn't make that the focus of her performance. Whether you like or dislike some of her interpretative choices, you have to love that she's bringing her own thing into it, and it could only be Yulianna. She's my favorite pianist around because she always makes you hear something different in a work, and she's got such a recognizable sound.

Yulianna is the only pianist that I will listen to play this ballade. Her interpretation is full of energy, power, and sadness. She brings this intensity I haven't really seen in other pianists while still remaining gentle & emotional at the same time. Probably listened to this performance 100 times, she deserved to win.

Through her performance, I can see and feel a pianist experiencing and expressing the joy, ecstasy, sadness, sorrow, anger and anguish coded into Chopin's notes as emotional and imperfect human-beings instead of robots showing off perfect execution! That's the top level of performance for me!

After closing your eyes, this Ballade will take you on a journey to a paradise with birds, sparkling water, the scent of the flowers and your thoughts on your loved one. This is how I experience this Ballad. Chopin, how blessed we are that you have lived on this earth..! Bilal Atabey

It breaks interpretive paradigms of Chopin's work. Sometimes it decontextualizes, other times it plunges into an absurd intimacy with the author, other times it brings certain passages to the contemporary. The result of this is something completely new and surprising resulting from alternating perceptions that we have recorded about the work.

@mariuszzabrodzki84 4 жыл бұрын

For people listening to Chopin 200 years ago it was hardcore. Many parts of this ballad sound like jazz interpretations. Chopin was lucky to be ahead of his time by at least 100 years and in some wonderful way he was understood and admired.

Ladies and Gents, just a quick reminder for when you compare different recordings: some audios are MORE COMPRESSED than others. This means they will have a slightly brighter tone, a bit more pressure, a different color that might strike as being the result of the interpreter's technique and sound alone. Needless to say that each performer has his/her own sound, but when it comes down to youtube recordings the level of compression vary A LOT. BTW, her interpretation of this piece is simply amazing. Certainly one of the highlights of the competition.
