Slovenski pianist Aleksander Gadžijev se je uvrstil v drugi krog Chopinovega tekmovanja v Varšavi, ki pravkar poteka in ga spremlja v živo vsa zainteresirana svetovna glasbena in še posebej pianistična javnost. Komentarji ga že postavljajo v finale (desetih najboljših pianistov na svetu).
Gadžijev je nastopil v Koncertni dvorani Varšavske narodne filharmonije 6. oktobra in je dosegel 23.825 ogledov njegovega nastopa na video prenosu, ki je dosegljiv vsemu svetu.
Njegov nastop je imel veliko javnih komentarjev, ki jih nekaj tu dodajam v izvirniku:
I can’t listen to him without a thrill all over my body. You can listen to this kind of music again and again and you never get bored. He plays at the highest level.
Божественная музыка и такое проникновенное исполнение. Браво
The sound SIGERU KAWAI makes is gentle and pleasing to the ear. This Ballade in F minor is my kind of thing.
When I noticed, I stopped all my hands and listened to his performance. Even as an amateur, the wonderfulness of his performance was conveyed to me. bravo!!!
Another strong contestant! Brilliantly brings out inner voice. I hope to see him in Final
Outstanding performance!!!
Probably my fave from this morning session? Was great being there
Complimenti per la magistrale esecuzione .piena di sentimento.bravissimo!!!
Gadjiev, aparentemente um finalista…
He’s definitely a finalist.
So beautiful and touchy.
Great playing on a great piano. Unfortunately playing a Steinway is traditional, the sound everybody’s used to. I hope one day Kawai takes over, as in many ways it’s a better instrument. Listen to it sing toward the end!
Wonderful playing!
What a wonderful pianist!
fantastico!!!
Marvellous opening – like the colour
Congrats on making it to second stage!!!
Excellent playing! All this would have sounded better on Steinay or Fazioli. High register sounds like a toy piano, I don’t hear the volume of the bass in this instrument.
Very personal, deep. Etude cis with highest understanding.We need this kind of musicians today
Der Beste unter den Kandidaten, die ich bis jetzt gehört habe.
Definetely no 1
Истинно русский пианизм! Сердце, душа, уши, руки и величайший смысл этой музыки! Брависсимо!!!
