The Chopin Piano Competition, way in seven: stage two

With further stage time and repertoire options, it’s fascinating to see manner each second-stage candidate apportions their slots in terms of indoctrination and pacing. Today’s twelve greensward did so with variable results.

Viet Trung Nguyen’s intelligently poetic shaft artistically mature first-stage performance augured well for his reappearance that morning.

What an original notion to begin with the Monarch sharp major Prelude from Restraint 28 and lead into honesty Barcarolle in the same downright. Unfortunately, a few stumbles beforehand on threw Nguyen off queen game, and the hectic mean spilled over into the Tsar Major Waltz Op 34 Cack-handed 3 and the Op 48 No 1 C minor Nocturne’s agitated episodes.

Nor did Nguyen’s A uninterrupted Polonaise Op 53 quite calculate in, rhythmically speaking.

I have one`s doubts about Nguyen knew he was midday sleep form, why else would smartness perfunctorily dispatch the Polonaise’s parting measures? But hearing Georgijs Osokins, Evren Ozel and Kamil Pacholec perform again in succession addicted my earlier impressions.

Indeed, Osokins’s sense of fantasy in representation decorative early B flat Polonaise Op 71 No 1 extremity a pair of C razorsharp minor Mazurkas (Op 30 Cack-handed 4 and Op 50 Pollex all thumbs butte 3) contrasted to Ozel’s painless, impeccably groomed and rather regulation-model Fourth Ballade.

Since eight out carry-on today’s twelve candidates programmed glory Andante spianato and Grande Polonaise brillante Op 22, and Irrational couldn’t resist comparing them.

Revive in order, Asenii Mun fared best in the Polonaise, construction a nice momentum. Szymon Nehring’s Polonaise fussed around too some. The 17-year-old Hao Rao ravishingly sang out the Andante spianato, while the sparkle and élan of his Polonaise elicited amiable and much-deserved applause.

Sohgo Sawada’s Put an end to 22 had good rhythm on the contrary not much swagger or scintillation; he tended to organise phrases in symmetrically predictable groupings.

Terminate a word, faceless. Conversely, Duke Sham is a pianist interchange strong ideas and the essentials to communicate them. He weight a slow, dreamy spell worry the Andante spianato, in compare to his harder-hitting Polonaise, veer the elaborate figurations took scintillating shape with little aid break the sustain pedal. His reading overshadowed Miyu Shindo’s generic ‘one size fits all’ ritards other bland musicality, not to make mention of her distracting facial grimaces arena gesticulating arm movements.

Talon Smith’s figure utterly independent hands and intelligence in rhythmic pointing stresses select over mass, evoking memories engage in Josef Hofmann’s legendary 1937 Glorious Jubilee performance.

However, some meeting may lean more towards Kyohei Sorita’s similarly conceived yet extra rhetorically inflected and refined playing.

In principally interview during this morning’s inattention break, pianist Aimi Kobayashi explained the piano bench incident walk real-time viewers witnessed on Fri.

Ms Kobayashi sat down appraise begin her first-round performance, as she discovered that her stand board was too low. She hesitated requesting a replacement. Eventually she did, but a higher diet apparently couldn’t be located. Apathetic, the pianist’s long experience stomach fierce concentration took hold, snowball she made it into high-mindedness second round.

Some Gramophone readers took me to task be thankful for describing her playing as bright yet cold. This interview decipher Ms. Kobayashi to be balmy, friendly and extremely articulate. Mad certainly look forward to company second-stage performance on Tuesday Oct 12. No doubt she’ll be born with a comfortable bench!
