I watched Valentina playing this piece live in September 2022 at Sala São Paulo - Brazil, it was the most impressive thing i've ever seen in my life, I couldn't hold back the emotions, it made me feel so emotional I cried a lot and had goosebumps the whole concert, it was magical. And then I had the opportunity of meeting her in person, she was so sweet to all the Brazilian fans. ❤️

1. This is absolutely my favorite classical performance by any artist on any instrument 2. Her hands were moving so fast in the middle that it almost seemed like a big joke, not intentional. A nearly psychotic level of playing. 3. What’s more daunting is that Liszt actually intentionally wrote this. He dreamed to extract from the piano as much as humanly possible. Will anyone ever extract more?

As a pianist I agree with you. Amazing technique. What people don't always realize is that to accomplish these pieces at such high technical and mature emotionally, first both sides of the brain is being used simultaneously. Second, to achieve the dexterity in the fingers takes years and thousands if not tens of thousands of hours practicing over and over, increasing the mm a notch each day so that your fingers glide effortlessly across the keys. Thirdly, also takes the ability to change emotions as to convey the story you are weaving on the piano. There was s so much more than most people realize. Amazing performance.

@voltydequa845 7 ай бұрын

Thanks - that sometimes we feel too alone when there are no affinity buddies in sight. I am not a musician, but anyway was impressed by what I was calling 'the harmony of execution'. Your «both sides of the brain» helped me in having a more precise idea. But, again, I'll stick to 'harmony' since for me it is more a question of feeling the harmony of sound than feeling emotions, though I know that it is all connected. Could be because I got polarized by the difference in interpretations, where the world-known ones, with great technical skills, miss completely the 'harmonic feeling'. Among them the very known LL, that to me seems just an extremely fast piano typist.

The long pause at 5:03 really nails it. I had watched so many other players doing this rhapsody and none of them made any sense; all sounded like schizophrenic incoherent performances. Now Valentian's pause finally made sense of the whole thing. There is a transition of mood that all other players didn't capture.

@Quasicrystal37 9 ай бұрын

As a newbie piano player getting their first meaningful insights into the higher levels of mastery, this is just mindblowing, and kicks my inspiration and motivation into overdrive. I imagine only the very pinnacle of players are even willing to devote the blood, sweat, tears and pure magic that it takes to achieve playing similar to this. Not just the technical difficulty, but the absolute grace, fierce power, keen precision, and depth of soul and emotion - stunning!

@rykehuss3435 2 жыл бұрын

She is very good with not tensing up. Thats what allows her to play at such speeds. You can even see it in her biceps, they rapidly flex and relax instead of just staying flexed most of the time. She is optimizing her energy very well to be able to play at this speed. Shoulders relaxed, hands relaxed. You can get much faster explosive speed that way compared to being tense all the time.
