What a raging sycophantic liar. His Liszt is questionable at best and built on the failures of many so-called pianists who are actually poor mediocres. His Chopin, the real test of virtuosity, etude No.2 and No.4 - now he uses all pedals for the No.2 and is not up to speed, while No.4 is a disaster in my standards.

Beethoven biographer Edmund Morris reports that when Beethoven played in Prussia, he so stunned his listeners that "they crowded around his piano, weeping." I cried as I listened here to Yunchan Lim play Beethoven. I reiterate my awe from when he overwhelmed us with his Emperor: Dear Yunchan Lim, Thank you for such dedication to your art. Thank you for every hour you spend practicing alone. Thank you for bringing us this wonderful music in its most sublime glory. And please don't ever change.

He may have the potential to surpass virtuoso Uchida , who won second prize in Chopin competition in 1970. Hope that he does better than Ivo Pogorelich and Sultanov. He may soon be inducted to be one of the great pianists in the 21st century. Thank you so much Yunchan and Wigmore Hall. He may be a legendary artist in the making. Thank God.

@@Paroles_et_Musique Yunchan’s playing is much closer to the composers intentions and 19th century performance practice than any of the above pianists. Not saying they’re bad, but Yunchan was lucky to have his teacher whom taught him the 19th century performance practice along with how to have a good balance and achieve quiet dynamics on modern pianos. Along with a good understanding of rhythm and rubato it’s no wonder why Yunchan has already captured the hearts of people much quicker than Zimmerman or the others did.

@@TheLifeisgood72 Ummm, no. How you know how artists performed in the 19th century? There are no recordings but only individual reviews, written by enthusiasts so the objectivity is not at full. How his teacher taught him 19th century performances and what that ever means? In Korea nobody practiced classical music until 1950 or so. What is "achieve quiet dynamics on modern pianos"? That phrase doesn't make any sense, it means nothing. What is "understanding of rhythm and rubato"? Rhythm is scientifically accessible, as for rubato, there is no known rule, it boils down to each one experience and sensitivity. There are no two pianists with same rubato. Yuchan Lim captured the heart of people because we have x1000 more media exposure than in the times of Zimmerman or Sokolov. As for reaching their level, he has still a very long way to go. He is exceptional for his age, sure, but what was his career, 6 months and 15 musical works played, then you compare this tiny journey with god-level musicians after one life of performing and say "he surpassed them"? Come on, you are smarter than that.

@@Paroles_et_Musique I’ve studied Grieg’s and Saint-Saens’ old recordings and you can extrapolate a lot about their approach to rhythm and dynamics. They are good representations of the schools they attended, matching written accounts, so we cannot say we have no idea what the 19th century composers wanted. You can figure out the rubato and dynamics of notes somewhat by studying voice leading and the harmony. This is all stuff written in old sources. Yunchan is definitely aware of all of this and tbh I’m not sure that those old pianists from the 60’s and 70’s were based on their playing which is rather idiosyncratic at times especially with lesser known opus’s. If you think of dynamics in terms of MIDI’s 0-127, then most modern pianos struggle to produce dynamics below levels 40-50 with ease. They have heavier hammers and farther key travel time. Most modern pianists play quite loud in contrast to 19th century pianists, and it does not sound good for this music all the time. Yunchan is capable of being very quiet, it’s clear he puts a lot of focus into playing quietly. It shows his understanding of the music and what it requires to be beautiful whilst having the technique to work within the limitations of modern pianos.

Listening to this concert yet again, I wonder how many of us really recognise the clearly analytical thought, time, patience and attention to every detail that Yunchan has put into it, or seen that at eighteen he was already clearly a force to be reckoned with. It's a bit like an early history of piano and delivered brilliantly, every piece in it was a masterpiece. Thank you Yunchan and Wigmore

@Ariadne-cg4cq 3 ай бұрын
@catherinejones9396. You are absolutely right. It most certainly looks and sounds like he has given a great deal of thought to every single note and every interval and considered exactly how it should sound. He thinks every detail through and considers every detail of how it should sound. As they say it is 1% inspiration and 99% perspiration but the results speak for themselves! I read some time ago that when he was interviewed by the critic Richard Morrison after one of his concerts he told him that on one occasion he spent an entire day working out how best to play 4 bars of a Schubert sonata! If that is how he approaches his work it is no wonder the results are so spectacular. I am excited that I will be attending his recital at the Royal Albert Hall in London next Monday where he will play all the Chopin etudes.

Said it before..IMHO, the only comparison to Yunchan Lim is when Tiger Woods first debuted. Yunchan just dominates every performance, while the few but older naysayers complain about his lack of experience, or is too emotional, etc. Yunchan is a once in generation pianist and like what Tiger did for golf, Yunchan will attract more fond interest in the Classical music genre. Also, he's not the next Lang Lang or Danil or even Horowitz...he's Yunchan Lim.

Those hands are double orchestras--dual operatic productions even. He has such precise dynamic control of each note and a well-developed sense of pacing. The contrast he brings out between the two hands and even in a single phrase in one hand keeps the music fresh, intriguing, and extremely compelling. His fortes are loud, but not overwhelming. His pianos are soft and delicate and his mezzo pianos and mezzo fortes are very well placed and clear as crystal. His choices of passagework with and without pedal, with staccato or legato, with crescendo, diminuendo, or at a steady volume are also all highly refreshing and mesmerizingly beautiful. All the aesthetic nuances were most tasteful, most artfully done, and such a pleasure for me to listen to. He creates such a unique audio landscape with each piece. What wonderful storytelling! Added to that, he is neither showy nor bombastic and lets the music be the centerpiece of your attention--what excellent playing. Sometimes I wish I could've heard some of the greats play--Chopin, Liszt, Schumann (Clara), Alkan, Mendelssohn (Felix and Fanny), Cramer, Field, etc. Today, I am a little less envious of those who could. For in our generation, a true virtuoso has arrived, and his name is Yunchan Lim.

I was lucky enough to attend this concert in person. Having listened to classical music pretty much my entire life, I have never listened to anyone play music that touched my soul so deeply, and this includes the masters of the past. During the performance I was completely at the mercy of his music, my heart felt so full and I had tears in my eyes. To this day I still can’t put my finger on exactly what makes me feel this way, only that whenever I listen to him I know that I’m beholding the art of a true genius and gift to this world. He is on a completely different level and his music transcends space and time. Luckily bumped into Yunchan and team after the concert, aside from this god given talent, he is also one of the most modest, kind, selfless and bashful people I have ever met!

SSAhmes. The reason you can’t name any noteworthy pianists during the last few decades is that there haven’t been any really outstanding ones. There are only some keyboard technicians but not any true artists until now. There have been no Schnabels Cortots, Lipattis, Gilels or Michelangelis. The nearest one to those was Horowitz but no-one else gets anywhere close.

악보를 완벽히 재현하는 것은 AI도 할수 있는 영역입니다. 임윤찬은 악보의 음표와 박자와 세기를 연주하는 것이 아닌 음표와 박자사이의 빈공간을 연주하고 있습니다. 공간을 채우고 당기며 끄는 19-20세기 Romantic Pianist의 연주기법을 현대적으로 완벽하고 반박못할 독특한 해석으로 계승하고있습니다. 그것은 오직 천재들의 영역이라는 느낌으로 Lipatti와 Gould가 동시에 같이 연주하는 혼란을 줍니다.

For those who need the transcript of Michael White, the recital host.. Welcome to Wigmore Hall, where you join me Michael White and a sold out audience for what we're all hoping will be a revelatory experience, the UK debut of Korean pianist Yun Chan Lim, who sensationally won last year's Van Cliburn competition, netting what I think is the biggest prize on the keyboard Circuit of a hundred thousand dollars and aged just 18, which makes him the youngest winner in the competition's history. He’s still just 18 though with more experience behind him since he spent the past months on a world tour that comes as part of his prize, fitting recitals like this one at the Wigmore around ongoing studies in Korea. And it starts with an interesting example of cultural outreach for a young Korean, a 17th century Pavana by English Renaissance composer William Byrd. It’s a timely choice because this year is a major anniversary for Byrd, four centuries since his death in 1623. And we have to make the most of Bird's death because there's no definite date for his birth. We can only guess that it was around 1450 (1550). He wrote a lot of keyboard music, much of it in the form of Pavana which were originally a stately dance in duple time. The Pavana we're going to hear is based on a tune by Byrd's younger contemporary John Dowland, his iconic Lachrymae, which started life as a lute solo, then became a song 'Flow My Tears' and was then adapted into other versions as it got more famous. Byrd's version is regarded as one of the best largely because it exploits the spaciousness of Dowland's music to enhance the tune with exquisite elaborations of a kind that early music Scholars spend their lives pouring over. Well, what Yunchan Lim makes of them we're about to find out as he opens this recital with Byrd's Pavana on a lute song of Lachrymae by John Dowland. It's worth saying that when I asked why he wanted to play this piece, his answer was that he thinks Byrd is the greatest of all British composers. William Byrd's tribute to his younger contemporary John Dowland, Pavana on Lachrymae played there by the young but brilliant winner of last year's Van Cliburn competition, Yunchan Lim. And when I said just now that Byrd was probably born in 1450, I'm afraid I meant 1550. Numbers never were my strong points. Either way, plenty of technical imagination went into that music and how you acquire technique was an abiding concern of Johann Sebastian Bach, who wrote several collections of pieces as learning exercises, albeit of an elevated kind. Around 1720 he put together a büchlein, a little book for his ten-year-old son, Wilhelm Friedman. Nothing but exercises in it and it included a set of pieces in two-part counterpoints pretty easy and three-part counterpoints not so easy. Then Bach later developed for other students. He called the two-parters Inventions. He called the three-parters Sinfonias. And there were 15 of each covering all the keys that you could comfortably play at that time, which was before equal temperament opened up the tuning system and gave you 24. Tonight issuing easy options, Yunchan Lim is going to play the 15 Sinfonias, the three parts. What you'll hear is that Counterpoint of that density edges them toward the sound world of a Fugue. In fact, these pieces step toward Bach's ultimate book of elevated exercises, the ‘Well-Tempered Clavier,’ which came later in the composer's chronology when equal temperament was taking hold. Here to demonstrate how this works is a pianist who may be playing on the world stage but is still pursuing studies back home in Korea, Yunchan Lim. Yunchan Lim there proving himself a conspicuously better than average students in the learning exercises, the Bach’s 15 Sinfonias. I'm not sure I'd have wanted to be taught by Bach, he can only have been a formidable mentor. You get a sense of that in the way he described the Sinfonias, its examples of forthright instruction to obtain not only good ideas and execute them well but to achieve a Cantabile style of playing and thereby acquire a strong fortes of composition. It is Germanic education for you. Well, I don't know what J.S. Bach would think of Yunchan's Cantabile style there, but it sounded exemplary to me. The rest of Yunchan Lim's recital is given over to Beethoven and the main item is a familiar piece with a perhaps misleading name officially known as set of 15 variations on an original theme Eroica Opus 35. Now that's fine except there are more than 15 variations. The theme isn't totally original and you can only call it Eroica with hindsight. To unpack all that, Beethoven was drawn to sets of variations throughout his life, especially variations on a theme that he called his own, but it actually owed a lot to another composer, (Muzio) Clementi. Beethoven first used this theme in dance music for a Viennese ball. Then he used it again for a ballet score, Creatures of Prometheus and he used it a third time in the set of variations we're about to hear. Then he used it a fourth time a year later in his Symphony Number Three, the Eroica, which is where the name stuck and got applied to Opus 35 variations retrospectively. As for the number of variations in Opus 35, the confusion is largely down to an unusual opening. You don't get the theme up front. You get a crashing E flat chord and then the skeletal bass line of the theme followed by some variations. Only then do you get the theme in all its glory and 15 variants. and after that there's a bonus, a Fugue with yet more variants. It all amounts to half an hour of music with more than you were promised, the rare thing in this day and age. But before he plays the Eroica, Yunchan is starting with a set of Beethoven Bagatelles. That also offers more than the name promises. Bagatelles are Trifles, throw away things and Beethoven was much drawn to that word as a title for piano pieces. He produced several sets of Trifles in his lifetime including the one we're about to hear. It was published at his Opus 33 in 1803 and it included material dating back two decades to when Beethoven was a teenager, amounting to an essentially rather random collection, compiled from jottings filed away in a bottom drawer. But that's what makes it interesting. It's possible to hear these Trifles as working notebooks where Beethoven salvages ideas that never made it into his larger scores, turning them into something. And the way Beethoven turned scraps of ideas into something is always fascinating. There are seven pieces in the set and here to play the Opus 33 Bagatelle followed by the Eroica Variations is Yunchan Lim. Beethoven's Variations Opus 35 on a supposedly original theme Eroica played there with, I don't know, cinemascopic panache by Yunchan Lim and prefaced by the throwaway Genius of Beethoven's Opus 33 Bagatelles. As I said in those Bagatelles you get a sense of scraps of ideas being worked into something of value before your ears and eyes. But you get something comfortable on grander terms in the Eroica Variations, which conjure up a whole universe of ideas and emotions, not least humor. It can be hard to track the humor in Beethoven, you might wonder if it's really there. But most pianists insist that it is and Yunchan Lim is one of them. I asked him earlier if you could really expect an audience to laugh out loud. Other things Beethoven does in the piece and he said to me I will try to make them. Well, the audience here are laughing now. Clearly absolutely delighted to get the chance to hear this incredible young player in the flesh. And there'll be even more plea if they get an encore. Well, he's keeping them waiting. It has to come now; half the audience are on their feet. There's a sense of demand in the air. First of all there’s a slightly oblique route, a transcription of Bach’s Cantata BWB 147, better known as ‘Jesus, Joy of Man's Desiring’ and a transcription of course made famous by Dame Myra Hess in her wartime concerts. I wasn't sure many Koreans would know about Myra Hess but Yunchan certainly does and he told me that anybody who plays the piano would share his admiration with her recordings. It's worth saying that there's an awful lot of Yunchan’s fellow countrymen and women here in the audience. He’s perhaps become a big name in Korea, evidently a challenge to K-pop. The third of Liszt’ Liebesträume, pieces that reflect on different kinds of love, that was number three based on a poem about mature-considered emotion that tells the reader ‘love as long as you can.’ The question now is whether Yunchan Lim has played as long as he can for one night. Well, the answer to that question is yes. That's the end of this recital given in the course of a world tour that's part of Yunchan Lim's prize for winning last year's Van Cliburn competition aged just 18. I asked him earlier how his life had changed since he won the competition and he told me very calmly no change at all. it may be that he's now playing to audiences around the world but he said all that matters is to make good music, him and the piano in totally focused relationship. That said he clearly has a major International career ahead. Next stop on his victory tour is Italy and it's been great to witness the early stages of it all here at the Wigmore Hall tonight captured on this live stream. But please remember Wigmore live streams come without charge but at a cost to make so we do ask you to consider a donation..

Superb playing....a rare artist who allows the essence of the music to bloom without unnecessary mannerisms or gimmickry. One is left with the feeling that this is simply how the music should sound. I am sure the grateful composers are somewhere smiling in happiness☺

I went to see his performance at Wigmore Hall in person. I've never seen a pianist like him who creates this kind of piano music in my entire life. He's a pianist who shows everything beyond imagination. I realized for the first time that the piano could produce this kind of sound, and that Bach and Beethoven were geniuses among geniuses.

When I listen to his playing, I feel strangely that only he, his performance, and me exist in the world. It's quite unfamiliar because I've never experienced it when listening to other musicians' playing. It is a very special experience, intimate and moving.

I'm a Japanese classical music fan who went to Yunchan's debut recital at Suntory Hall at Tokyo last month. What I feel bit sad is, when big name artists come to Japan, they always perform at extremely large halls, and I can't feel their music close enough. I wish I could listen best artist's music in a hall like Wigmore. Well, Yunchan's Liszt completly filled and blowed the concert hall with 2000 seats though lol.
