Ya right....
you'll find this very odd, but actually i do think his performance of our croatian pieces is very good, with great imagination. for the rest-heh we had enough of this kind of discussion and i can already see possibly another pointless discussion
Isn't Maksim like THE joke as a fake-pianist ?
You can't be a fake-pianist if you can play that well technically. You can joke about how he tried to make classical music appeal to a wider demographic, and you can do the same with Myleen Klass, but I think they have balls and courage to do that. Though it might not sound nice to us, I'm proud that they gave it a try.
What exactly you tried to say with that?His tone is completlely empty and harsh. Without any emotion.
i think brahmsian was referring to theirry's statement of saying that maksim cant play well technically and plays slow and empty.I think the recording of the bumblebee shows a considerable amount of technical accomplishment.Gruff
I still think, even after that video, that is sound just SUCKS, wich is part of technic, and even if he plays it even, it still is empty. Your video only approved what I said.
but thierry, aren't you just..hmmm..jealous, is this the right word? because he's an average pianist while making tones of money and having millions of screaming girls around him. all that-despite his average, who wouldn't want what he has?...
I'm not the only who said he sucks, why are you telling MEEE I'm jealous OMFG ...
couldn't resist replying to this thread, i promise to myself this is last talk i'm having about maksim went on youtube today and listened maksim playing hungarian rhapsody n.2. i don't see what's the big fuss and discussions about him and his playing-i mean, it's obvious as a sun that he isn't comparable to any of great masters or any great young pianist such as yundi, lang lang.. but thierry, aren't you just..hmmm..jealous, is this the right word? because he's an average pianist while making tones of money and having millions of screaming girls around him. all that-despite his average, who wouldn't want what he has?...and frankly-i've seen worser pianists then him, just for the record.
I didn't know he had screaming girls around him and that he made millions. And even if he does, what does that change ? I don't want that kind of life, no thanks. Having to travel worldwide everyday ... omg no. I'm not the only who said he sucks, why are you telling MEEE I'm jealous OMFG ... and to answer your question, I wouldn't take his money if his life comes with it. He has to completly butcher good pieces of music, and he can't really play the greatest pieces in piano litterature. He has to butcher most famous and the easiest virtuosic pieces. I would be ashamed like hell. Now please stop insulting me without any reasons.
But, don't you think that his fingers are really AMAZING
speaking of amazing, i think he has something else amazing?
What's that then?
