Mischa Maisky 'Fire Dance' (by Manuel De Falla)

can you imagine how hard it is to play in there? good made, Mischa!!!

es hermosoos buenisimo!!!
ese tipo es muuy buenoo:).
julian lloyd webber no demuestra muchaa pasion
como creo q misha maisky muestra
excelente:)

what a S**t !!! mischa, is not heavy metal, man! bad, very bad interpretation! (sorry for my English)

This looks extremely hard to play!


I guess I respect anyone who has mastered their intrument... this performance was amazing

why pianists = 0?

exeptional, music is music and it dont care if they were playing at a lounge or at a hall

sacrilegio

insomma...

I like more the way that julian lloyd webber, plays it....

eso es sentir la musica, apacionarse por ella..

Looks like a rehearsal?

i did not know that he speaks german

he looks totally funny with his hair swirling around

I think he did a fine job...

The coolest thing though is where he is playing it. In the middle of a club. This is so good for classical music.

I'm not crazy about most of his work. For instance his Saint Saens is very weak. I have no desire to hear his Haydn. I think he is meant to play works like these.

I respect maisky for his mastery of the cello. But in this video is different, he does not play like this usually. Maybe musically but not technically. Maybe something came up. And i agree with you about people giving bad comments not even thingking of the reasons why this performance is like this.

and for your information: when this was filmed at yellow loung the club (no concert hall!) was really packed, quite smoky and the acoustics in the place were far from perfect for classical music.

for me it's very suprising to see how heated & often insulting the discussion/comments about this piece have become since i posted it. makes me wonder how stuck up their own a*** some fans of classical music are. i'm 'feeling' the piece - although i must admit that i can't really comment on maisky's interpretation as i'm no expert.

There has to be a reason why this happened...

Be quied!!
He is one of the best Celloplayers

not good...

I agree fully with the answer that cotalech sent you. I myself am a pianist as well, and, by the way, I remember Karin Lechner very well from the master class with Nikita Magaloff I took part in. She was 17 at the time, and was a stunning talent!!

Que quiere decir "pendeji" (en inglès)?

De todos maneras toca mucho demasiado rapido.

Why you said that??? I´m pianist and i think she made a very good job.

Soy gaditano y la musica del maestro hay que tocarla con el alma mas que con la virtud.

Y Maisky lo hace con creces.

-----------

Manuel would be proud of this interpretation, in his music like in flamenco or blues the tecnic is less important than if you show or not your soul in the piece. I am from his town and this video has shaken me, thanks for post it :)
