Rameau - Les Tendres Plaintes - Grigory Sokolov, piano

Berliner Philharmonie - June 5, 2013

For nearly my whole life I tried to play meaningful, true, plain. This video leaves me devastated, of admiration, of humbleness, of envy.

when Sokolov plays Rameau, he is the greatest artist on Earth

[DavyThomas]

His understanding of agogic time, that if you slow the tempo somewhere you have to move the tempo faster before or after to make up for it, is AMAZING. In every motive you can feel him weighing out the balance between the two to keep the balance true. Perfection.

[alombredeslava]

On peut ne pas être un "fan" de Sokolov et admirer ce qu'il fait là. Ses interprétations de Rameau sont éblouissantes.

[olla-vogala]

The sensitivity, emotional level, technique, etc. I could go on, there is just no one in the world who plays Rameau like Sokolov!

[espenklang]

...und es gibt sie doch noch: wirklich gute Musik, einfühlsam und tief gespielt und doch schon über 300 Jahre alt. Meisterhaft und fast unerreicht gut gespielte Verzierungen, wie sie typisch für diese Zeit waren. Danke, Herr Sokolov und Herr Rameau.

A true genius! I ordinarily prefer the harpsichord or clavichord for Barque keyboard music, but the incredible sensitivity and warmth with which Mr. Solokov plays makes hearing this music on the piano a sheer delight. His expressiveness is astounding. I never grow tired of listening to his interpretations of Rameau!

[bifeldman]

Many say Sokolov is the greatest living pianist. I believe they are correct.

[renaldtremblay]

Jamais Rameau n'a pas été aussi bien servi! Bravo et merci!

[eduardoyoung]

I feel great emotion to hear this concert again.  I personally attended this concert in Berlin, and part of the cheers and applause that you hear is mine. We did repeat five encores at Sokolov.

musica divina e performance divina!!! bacia le tue mani, maestro.

[Capochin]

So delicate, sensitive .Amazing.Beautiful gentle singing tone.

[owenaguilarcellohuman]

Normalmente no me gustan las versiones de piezas de clavecín en piano, pero esto es simplemente hermoso, muy hermoso.

[elisabettamartelli]

Sokolov è un pianista di grande raffinatezza.
Il suo tocco é incantevole

[thomasakerberg]

My now 25 year old daughter stumble in at Konserthuset Stockholm a few years ago to listen to Mr Sokolov!
I myself listened to Tatiana Nikolayeva in Berwaldhallen (Bach) in the eighties..

[rothschildianum]

What a beauty! I love his performance.

[ondineclaudel]

Quelle sensibilité de touche et d'émotion, Rameau doit se réjouir de son interprétation.

[didierleroy]

Magnifique toucher et rendu extraordinaire des fioritures d'ornementation

[varanceL]

one great moment, Rameau et Grigory are amazing....Peace and love on our Earth !
