Daniil's interview with Falk Häfner of the BR-Klassik:

"[...] BR-KLASSIK : Here in Munich you will play Peter Tchaikovsky's First Piano Concerto, one of the most famous piano concertos ever. What makes this concert special, what is its secret?

Daniil Trifonov: There are so many dramaturgical juxtapositions and contrasts and dramatic changes in the play. It just feels very dramatic. And of course it means a lot to me personally, because I won the Tchaikovsky Competition with the piece.

BR-KLASSIK: Where does the B minor concerto rank in your private ranking of piano concertos?

Daniil Trifonov: For me, every concert is number one when it is played on stage. But a piece like this can also be a real challenge: you know it so well, it is often played by so many great artists. It's very difficult to find anything new in music. It takes extra work to get used to a piece like this and find a personal approach.

BR-KLASSIK: We Germans perceive this concert as typically Russian music. As a Russian, you can perhaps judge: Is this a cliché or does the concert really capture the Russian soul?

Daniil Trifonov: Of course, the musical language and atmosphere of the piece is heavily influenced by Russian culture. But not exclusively. In the middle of the second movement, for example, there is a very familiar French melody. So it's just Tchaikovsky's genius at work! He is of course influenced by the culture that surrounds him, but it also shows him as an independent composer. [...]"

I love to watch Daniil play. He commits, not only his hands to playing, but his body and soul too. Utterly amazing. Superb musician.

The most beautiful piano concerto, and the fantastic Daniil Trifonov, unforgettable

[michaelschonauer]

I could listen to him play Liszt all day... he's brilliant...

[jean-francoislanneluc]

Sans doute la plus belle interprétation de ce concerto, œuvre majeure de la musique classique. Des ruptures de tempo inhabituelles, au bénéfice de l'expressivite. Et une sonorite parfaite des cordes de l'orchestre qui accompagnent à merveille le piano, tour à tour agité et tout en tension, puis serein et apaisé. Une merveille !

" In Music, there is allways a Way for Discovering and Resurch. It's a nonending Process. It's never Repeting, it's allways a new Creation." ( Daniil Trifonov's Comment on the Occasion of an Interview. )
I think, this is fascinating aswell in this so often heard Tchaikovsky concerto. To me, it sounds like a new Composition, fresh and inspiring !

В детстве мне очень нравился этот концерт и в ранней юности, а позднее он стал для меня заезженной пластинкой, шлягером.В 2011 я услышала этот нелюбимый концерт в исполнение главного призера конкурса Чайковского в Петербурге-- Даниила Трифонова.И это был восхитительный концерт, сыгранный гениальным юным музыкантом под управлением того же дирижера.
