For more than 60 years I have been listening to Rhapsody in Blue, and this performance made me realize for the first time that I have been listening to performers playing the notes. Yuja Wang played the _music._

@gabriellegiovanni7899 Жыл бұрын

This seems to be the way classical music is going now. Conductors jumping around like Zubin Mehta for a baroque chamber music piece, or Bach organists bouncing their hands up in the air like they’re playing Rachmaninoff, and what we see and hear so often is people chopping up the music like they have two meat cleavers for hands instead of observing the flow of the music and of the expressions meant by the composer. It’s sloppy. Maybe if they had a black conductor and a Jewish pianist…?

I agree 100%!!! I thought the same thing that I have heard this piece dozens of times but it was notes on a sheet of music. This is interpretation of the absolute highest order!!! She is taking Gershwin's music and mood and playing with it in the most loving manner. When you see obviously very very seasoned musicians leaning around their music stands to see how she is going to handle a certain passage, you realize you are watching a true virtuoso! The rarest of all is to find someone with that much technical facility and still plays with that much emotion/soul. We should all count our blessings!!!

It is, as well, a testament to the absolute genius of George Gershwin who, I am sure, writing this for Paul Whiteman's Orchestra ( I believe that's right ) in 1924 never would have thought major symphony orchestras around the world would be playing this in what, next year, will be 100 years later. Such is the power of music! And a compser with a God-given gift! I had tears in my eyes.

I have played this piece in the orchestra. so many times. This is as fine as any. It finds the balance between jazz and classical music, which is what I believe Gershwin was going for.. I think sometimes she plays too fast and loses the phrasing but this is a great piece for her and she can do it! Excellent job!

Clearly you never played an instrument on a higher level than single note picking. After some practice this becomes muscle memory so you don't have to explicitly memorize it and when you play it you don't even think about remembering but instead just focus on performance itself. It's flow in its purest form.

God brought together Tin Pan Alley and Beijing, put them in Vienna and created perfection. This may be the greatest musical performance ever recorded. The genius of Gershwin equaled by the genius of Wang and accompanied by the incomparable Vienna Philharmonic with an incredible venue. I didn't think anyone could play this better than Bernstein did but she may have accomplished it. She does not play the notes; she lives them. Consider that Yuja was all of 32 years old when performing this, and George was a mere 25 when he composed it. That is superhuman talent.
