She looks so calm or happy when she’s playing this is really refreshing

[bkerrkerr]

The orchestra is more amused than usual.

[Andrea-hckz]

She is talented and I notice that everytime she plays, the clarity is just hella crazy man. So sublime

[tommasocona]

The orchestra's faces shift from "omg what is this" to "jezz kill me" to "I'm changing my bloody job".

[abydosianchulac]

0:54 is my favorite part of this performance; it's like she's drawing something exceptionally fragile out of the piano through the entire phrase with her whole body. Gorgeous.

[owenprince]

I can listen to this a hundred times and get chills every time.

[michaelschefold]

I was there! The audience loved it!!! Great music can be funny, when it's played like this!

[maestropiero]

This is a mixture of two different "improvisations" on Rondo alla Turca: she alternates parts of Fazil Say version and Volodos version! So beautiful😍

[seersha]

I imagine the excitement every one of the orchestra must have felt just knowing they would be on stage with Yuja. 🤩

[chightower]

I could listen to her play for hours!😍

[richardlumintao]

The notes was so clear with a good expression and gracefully

[bensong]

jesus christ i just stood up and clapped in front of my computer screen when she finished lol. she is a once in a generation virtuoso with an unparalleled technique. seriously bravo

[AlsoSprach_Zarathustra]

The innocent Turkish March gets insane!!

[josh]

The absolute best parts of these videos are the reactions of the orchestra behind her - virtuosos on their own instruments - smiling and in awe.

[oscarc]

0:02 too slow for yuja, 0:26 warm up, 1:45 normal speed for yuja,

[anyariv]

INSANE!!! Turkish March is one of my favorite pieces ever and to hear Yuja jazz it up so incredibly well is fantastic!

[ilpelideachillemanlio]

Wow! Amadeus who turns on jazz ... Madame Wang is sensational! Brava!

[DreamUntilDark]

The best pianist in the world! Yuja is the best!

[SpeakEverydayEnglish]

I love Yuja's playing, from Prokofiev to Bach, she is amazing. As I listened to this one I was trying to imagine Turks trying to march to it! She and the piano are one.

[xfesehy]

she somehow shows off and makes it interesting musically at the same time. she is incredible.
