Scarlatti - Piano Sonata in B minor K. 87 - Yuja Wang

So great was Domenico Scarlatti that his music still delight us today and forever will.

Timeless masterpiece.

Chills on my spine...that was awesome.
Alas Yuja is too often rushing in her Scarlatti
renditions...that makes her being misdjudged
because of the note-rolling effect leading her to be addressed as a playing machine.

A beautiful masterpiece by Scarlatti marred by Yuja Wang's excessive rubato and rushed tempo.

The greatest interpretation of this masterwork. Horowitz made it famous, but played it with too much romanticism. Clara Haskil played a wonderful rendition, but- in my opinion- too fast.
The only one who came close to Yuja's interpretation was Ivo Pogorelich.

Why does everyone, including Horowitz, play an A on beat 3 of bar 6 instead of F sharp, as written?

She's a phenomenal pianist, but this more intimate piece exposes her musicianship which does not match her technical ability. Does not seem to phrase to the tensions of the text. Early days of course and she is marvellous overall.

Very good , tempo , just great

Superbly done (although Ivo Pogorelich still owns this piece).
And how nice she looks wearing a proper dress! So ladylike. (Yes, I said it.)
Then she started wearing ... well, you know the story.
If she had dressed then the way she does today while playing K. 87 I really think that I might have cried - not for her, but for the disrespect which she would have been showing to my old friend, Domenico Scarlatti (not to mention her teacher, Maestro Gary Graffman).
I don't know what happened. Maybe even she doesn't know.

In this crass and vulgar world artists should try to elevate and inspire us in every way possible. In fact, I believe that it's their duty to do so. It goes with the territory.
(Is the word "Duty" still in the Dictionary, or has it been excised by the Censorship Squad of the "Progressive" Police Department?)

I like this interpretation very much, certainly as good as Horowitz, in my opnion

Merveilleux

Wonderful interpretation of this intimate Scarlatti Sonata; when I look to her I see the same expression on her face as when Martha Argerich plays. They both seem to enjoy their own playing.

She fo not understand Scarlatti !!!

Does anyone know if this has a pair sonata? I know a lot of the scarlatti sonata were written with as pairs in the same key. Maybe K27?

Wonderful.

A Faultless Wonder

Endlich kommt der oft unterschätzte Komponist Scarlatti zu Ehren❤
