Best Beethoven interpreter ever...Arrau always took time to understand profoundly every piece he played...

@maryvasilakakos7387 7 ай бұрын

The most unbelievable incredible astounding pianist in the history of music. Actually the word pianist is totally inadequate to describe Master Arrau. Musical genius may just begin to be adequate. It's how Beethoven was meant to be played. His tempo is perfection. So blessed we can immerse ourselves in this divine music via KZfaq! 💖💖

Beethoven > Carl Czerny > Franz List > Martin Krause > Claudio Arrau. Czerny was a Beethoven champion and devoted his life teaching pianists, Beethoven. Czerny took 11 year-old Franz Liszt to meet Beethoven who, allergic to child prodigies, reluctantly agreed to the meeting. Upon passing Beethoven demanding tests (a Bach's fugue and transposition of same to another key on the fly), Liszt played Beethoven's 1st piano concerto (first movement). Beethoven's frown turned to a benevolent smile and seized both Liszt's hands, kissed him on the forehead and said gently ``Off with you! You are a happy fellow, for you will give happiness and joy to many other people. There is nothing better or greater than that'' Having learned from Czerny, Liszt imparted to his pupils the Beethoven way to the sonatas and Krause was not only young Arrau's piano teacher, but also as importantly, taught him music and culture.

Arrau has the best line and understanding of phrasing of any pianist ever. His interpretations reign supreme above almost all else in my mind. His passion is genuine, his approach to music professional, and his relaxed technique and control make for a sublime yet compelling performance every single time. I cannot overstate how much I respect and admire the great Claudio Arrau León, not just as a pianist, but as a musician. ❤

@dennisdavis3919 2 ай бұрын

Amen. He shapes each and every phrase masterfully. And that ain't easy given the strong contrasts among all the thematic elements in this piece. Arrau ties them together seamlessly, without apparent effort, as he shapes the phrase.

Tenía apenas 12 años de edad, cuando mi padre hablaba con placer sobre el gran Claudio Arrau. Chillanejo de nacimiento, llevó por los mejores escenarios doctos del mundo, la música de las grandes celebridades. Hombre sencillo, profesional 100%, entrenaba a diario horas y horas. Infatigable. Mi país, Chile, aún está en deuda con su magnificencia y prodigiosidad. Suele suceder con los grandes hombres de la Historia Universal; rara vez son profetas en su tierra. A Chile lo trajeron, en el final de su vida. Naturalmente fue ovacionado hasta más no poder. Ví una presentación por TV, en el teatro Municipal de Santiago, que data de 1984, similar a este video . Hoy en día artistas efímeros como los caribeños que utilizan la tecnología digital para cubrir sus notables deficiencias artísticas, tienen millones de visualizaciones y sus canciones antivalóricas, bizarras y de ribetes anárquicos, dejan mucho que desear. Vivimos la involución de la cultura. Y mi esperanza es que este ciclo amargo de decadencia, se complete, para que vuelva el virtuosismo de las Bellas Artes a renacer en gloria y majestad, otra vez.

To all the pianists who are able to play in concerts, they all heard the horror stories of how to muck up this sonata. So in fear, the inferior ones would try to rush through the movements hoping the audience would not notice. This is one of the hardest sonata to perform, even Arrau has to take some short cuts.

Arrau’s dynamic range is extraordinary. This performance is absolutely the essence of Beethoven, the result of the artist’s life-long absorption in the music. Arrau was a master of just about every kind of pedaling and touch imaginable. He and the instrument are one.

Das wunderbarste an solchen Beispielen, wenn Pianisten im hohen Alter immer noch in der Lage sind solche gigantische Kompositionen spielen zu können, ihre geistige Leichtigkeit, die man nur in diesem Alter erreicht auch in der Musik und ihren Interpretationen hören kann. Das hört man auch bei Rubinstein, Horowitz oder anderen großen Pianisten. Es kommen andere Ausdrucksweisen zustande, es wirkt fast so unbekümmert, wie das eines jugendlichen Alters, nur das hier auch noch eine Weisheit dazukommt, die man in der Jugend nicht hat. Im mittleren Alter will man immer sein Können unter Beweis stellen, im jugendlichen Alter braucht man das noch nicht. Im hohen Alter hat man das auch nicht mehr nötig. Man merkt die befreite Form des Mitteilens eines weisen, großen Mannes. Einfach wunderbar!

Una de las maravillas del internet fue la posibilidad de descargar la integral de las Sonatas de Beethoven, interpretadas por el Gran Maestro Claudio Arrau, bajo el sello de Phillips, en formato de compresión sin pérdida. Desde era un jovenzuelo soñe con este conjunto. El señor Arrau es uno de los más grandes pianistas que he admirado, y su versión de Las Sonatas es la definitiva. Nadie como él posee el vigor ni la sutileza necesaria para destacar cada minúsculo detalle de las obras de Bethoveen, quien, en elgunas circunstancias suele ser un toro embravecido difífil de domar (en las palabras de Sviatoslav Richter) con pasajes impetuosos y apasionados; arrebatos musicales que estremecen por su poderosa carga emotiva; y algunas otras, con pasajes tan sutiles y delicados, que la caída de un pétalo sobre la tecla puede ser una abominación horrenda si esta no encaja con el conjunto general de la obra.

Wonderful performance by the aging maestro! It has been said that Arrau is typically at his best in live concerts, and that he sometime "overthinks" pieces when he's in the recording studio, leading to odd hesitancies and mannered delivery. Perhaps we have evidence of that here, for this a Waldstein brimming with passion and deeply expressive sensitivity. A true legacy performance, musically profound in every way.

Arrau, su verdadero apellido era Arraud (francés) salió de Chile a los cinco años de edad. Partió financiado por el gobierno de Chile que durante toda su formación hasta los 25 años de edad, pagó su manutención y la de su señora madre, pues un niño tan pequeño no podía vivir solo allá. Tuvo un profesor alemán de piano, Krause, que lo quería tanto que hasta le daba cursos gratis porque a veces necesitaba más cursos que los que pagaba el gobierno de Chile. Leí en algún lado que ese profesor además fue como un padre para el niño Arrau, porque padre no tenía. Nunca se ha hablado de ese padre. Vivió desde entonces en Alemania, hablaba mejor al alemán que la lengua española. Se crió y se formó en Alemania. Nunca vivió en Chile. Venía a veces. Muy de tarde en tarde, pues trabajaba mucho como concertista en el extranjero y era de primera fila, de los más cotizados. Siempre que vino a Chile daba cursos gratuitos en el Conservatorio Nacional de la Universidad de Chile. Yo fui alumna en esos cursos magistrales a los cuales asistían todos los profesores de piano y sus mejores alumnos. En su enseñanza lo que destacaba era la lectura prolija de la partitura. Esa prolijidad debía ser trasladada al gesto pianístico. Decía que había que practicar hasta que la música se hiciera carne en nosotros. El mismo practicaba más de seis horas por día, y se sacaba una camisa empapada en sudor para ponerse otra limpia y seca y seguir praticando. El maestro era muy sencillo, y recordaba a Chile con amor, pues era su madre lo que recordaba. Por eso pidió ser enterrado allá en Chile.

An incredibly beautiful, insightful and convincing performance of a huge work from the piano literature from a man who is 74 years old. Thank you for this terrific footage, it was a pleasure to listen to and to watch.

I keep revisiting this interpretation...and I believe this is the best ...its simple,slow and effortlessly artistic.......very very beautiful from the master Arrau!!...

I agree with you, I can't get enough of this interpretation.

@markswanson549 9 жыл бұрын

Bharat Raghavan Agreed. I can get lost in the music for days. When I want a faster tempo I listen to Pollini's 1974 recording which also has moments of sheer brilliance.

@BharatRaghavan08 9 жыл бұрын

Mark Swanson just listened to it ....I was under the impression that usually a faster tempo can become rushed...but pollini manages to keep it fluid...worth listening thanks!

@markswanson549 9 жыл бұрын

Bharat Raghavan There are a few nuances in Pollini's performance (e.g. 1:46 and 8:06) that don't come across the same when played slower. Arrau plays it fast when it needs to be played fast, particularly the 3rd movement, but the more expressive interpretation is what makes it an other-worldly experience. Cheers!

Superb. Not too fast in first movement, he avoids the trap to overplay, keeping an introvert mood. Arau is the pianist of the bass notes.

Arrau foi o pianista que melhor entendeu as sonatas de Beethoven. Não tenho dúvida disso.

Without looking, this most exquisite rendition by Arrau sounded effortless. Then I looked and saw all the sweat on his scalp and forehead barely 2 minutes into the sonata!

YO TAMBIEN COMO CHILENA SIENTO UN ORGULLO ENORME QUE HAYAMOS TENIDO A UNO DE LOS GRANDES PIANISTAS DEL MUNDO.. ES CIERTO QUE EN CHILE LO DISFRUTAMOS POCO EN PERSONA, PERO SU LEGADO QUEDARÁ POR SIEMPRE Y EL HECHO DE SER NUESTRO GRAN EMBAJADOR DE LA MUSICA EN EL MUNDO

@MultiSORDO 2 жыл бұрын

Si entiendo bien, estâ orgullosa que los chilenos no lo hayan valorado... Y "su llegada" que aporta? Como se puede uno vestir con ropa ajena si encuentra que nadie aprecia esa ropa... Arrau era un hombre del mundo, del universo oso decir, un mûsico y por lo tanto un partidario de la cultura universal. Y quiere Ud. recuperarlo aun cuando pocos lo aprecian en Chile salvo para golpearse el pecho y hacer muestra de orgullo que no tiene lugar de ser. Yo no ando por las calles golpeandome el pecho y clamando mi verguenza de haber sido compatriota de Pinochet. De una no me da verguenza porque comprendo que "de todo hay en lq villa del senor", de dos yo trato de no ser orgulloso, Arrau tampoco.

El maestro Claudio Arrau eleva la música de Beethoven a lo más alto que nuestra conciencia puede alcanzar. Es increíble tal pureza

@LeoTebi 10 жыл бұрын

El mejor pianista que ha tenido nuestro país, un ejemplo que la música no ha perdido rumbo y que los herederos de estos maestros, tenemos una carrera muy gigante que recorrer, dura y ardua, pero posible. Nunca me dejaré de maravillar con las interpretaciones de Arrau en Beethoven

The 3rd movement portraits a beautiful sunrise in the countryside, warm, happy, joyful feelings as I wake up to see the sun rising over the hills. I open the door to the smell of the spray field... flowers, grass, fruits waiting to be cut and eaten for breakfast. I stop and I sigh to let the complete ecstatic feeling inside my lungs and my whole body. What a great day to be alive!
