Matsuev is more than just fingers. Electricity and whole-hearted Chopin. Every phrase gold and every note in 4th ballade weighted and heard.Check out the Coda ! So clean at thattempo with voicing so clear !!!

0:03 That trill was incredibly clean, I have to give him that

Denis Matsuev The Best Of The Best!!!! AWESOME!!!!

[gretareinarsson]

Matsuev is a true romantic in his playing. And he allowes himself to be one😊

[shirleyhare]

Well done Denis, I love all the Ballades, you certainly rocked that one!🇦🇺🇦🇺👍👍👍

The best violinist living... And without question the very best I have personally heard. Quite possibly the very best.
Apart from this, an amazing teacher, all of his students are blessed beyond expression. Wonderful man.

[julyanvanderwesthuizen]

could anyone else hear him singing along? XD

Эту балладу Шопена очень тонко, волшебно, с болью, с нежностью исполняет Божественный Алексей Султанов… ни один пианист его не превзойдёт- ..Султанов

[OndinaFrancioni]

Que hermoso para el alma ...existan seres tan exquisitos❤

[chiquibolso]

Bravo Maestro!!!!...Genial improvisación!!...Bravo

[Highinsight]

Quite Wonderful... free, expressive... passionately energetic... Sensational!

[아직은음대생]

Coda is like rachmaninoff
But I like this play very much

[infirmuxx]

Whatever Matsuev plays, he turns everything into Rachmaninoff.

[davisatdavis]

Is it just me, or did it sound like he was growling...?

Quando si dice superare le "Colonne d'Ercole", lasciarsi alle spalle realta' ben navigate come nel caso del Maestro Denis, che vuole conoscere, sperimentare, contaminare culture musicali che con le sue mani esprimono un sapore di nuovo ma sempre con un retrogusto di antico.Personalmente apprezzo l'audacia del Maestro quando si spinge oltre le " Colonne D' Ercole ", ma si deve essere dei Capitani ben navigati con numerosissimi requisiti. 🎼🎵🎶🎹🎼🎵🎶🎹🎼🎵🎶🎹🎖🏆🎖🏆🎖🏆🛩🛩🛩🗽🗼🌍🌐🎩🎩🎩

[verashomshina]

😅Браво! Именно Шопенов, другого коммента не заслуживает!!!!😢😂😂😂

[Algorox]

I love Matsuev, and I've heard him live, but this interpretation is not for Chopin...

[svetlanasergeeva]

Быстро и громко - не всегда показатель того, что это гениально. Хочется почему-то бежать, чем дослушать до конца. Никогда Дениске не дорасти до Алексея Султанова. Вот образец Творца!

[angelob.]

Very impressive! Certainly an interesting and very tasteful approach.

[pelegrino]

C'est du Chopin rachmaninové ! Les muscles sont un peu trop saillants à mon goût.
