Kyung Wha Chung and Radu Lupu, performance of this Debussy masterpiece is absolutely amazing!

I am glad Pletnev uses his artistic freedom to gestalten die Dynamik und Geschwindigkeit à son goùt. Sarebbe troppo noioso sentire siempre la casi misma interpretación. Prosto 4uda!

A performance for the ages.

Très bien !

I honestly have no words!!!!!

Supreme intelligence coupled with supreme sensitivity. Serkin.

00:15 The bass line reminds me of the beginning Rachmaninoff's third concerto

Nice tempo

count orlok has spent his down time practising

So much better with Pollini

my favorite interpretation of one of my favorite piece for piano of all time

Imagine being Rachmaninoff, a passionate fan of Chopin, and literally being the best Chopin interpreter

superb and unsurpassed.

I've heard this piece all my life, and it never captured me until now. Rachmaninoff's insight into the proper structure and cadence of this piece is just astounding. I've listened to it three times today already. What an artist.

Intense.

とても繊細で、綺麗に まとまっている、と思います。とくに重音とスピカートの技術が凄いと思います。

The greatest performance of the Chopin Ballades!!!

LIGHT-YEARS GENIUS!!! It takes a genius to understand another genius… Perhaps the only person to have fully understood and uncovered what Chopin meant in this Sonata… the most definitive version of all.

🙂

Gelegentlich eindrücklich und aufrichtig erlebt, dann wieder so übertrieben. Das Komponierte ist eindrücklich genug.

wow powerful rendition.

Wunderbar befriffen!

Had a stage seat, a folding chair, just off the left hand of VH, with view of keyboard, at Chicago Orchestra Hall. Maybe 8 feet or so, away from VH as he ripped through his version of the Rachmaninov piano sonata 2. Unbelievable!

I can just hear the sound engineers with Rachmaninoff. They ask him if he could play he 4th a little faster. He replies ' Da!.. I got this ..hold my wodka.."

Intense. It's amazing how much faster the virtuosos of the past are.

13:05 is a absolute disgrace to this piece

It's crazy that nobody remarks he's jumping from the 1st version to the 2nd sometimes

Excelente interpretacióm.

Чудо!!!

A minimalistic interpretation devoid of the bouffées émotionelles de Schumann

Astounding.

Get the same feeling hearing chopin Scherzo

Is this real Rachmaninov playing chopin

Great!

This is the Indiana University recording? Wonderful performance. I actually like his Decca performance best.

ずっとこの曲に関してはホロヴィッツ一択だったけど この演奏はすごい！ ボレット好きだったけど改めて惚れ直しました。

by FAR the best interpretation of this piece. if this level of degree were played at the chopin competition, they would've immediately gotten 1st.

This is a very special performance, but I think it's too clinical. It lacks a bit voluptuousness, exuberance, flamboyance.

This is the most original and daring interpretation I have ever heard of this sonata.

Thank you. Cristal clear sound. Best interpretation. My opus 36 that I love very much. Thanks! What's your source? Where did you get it from? Any chance for a FLAC file (uncompressed) audio straight from the source?

13:03 never heard this part played with such ferocity, and I don't mean that as a bad thing at all. I really like the power he puts in the bass, with it being just before the delicate middle section. There are so many brilliant artistic choices, especially in the finale with it being so clear yet so turbulent that are not seen often today at all with the push for absolutely exactly what the composer intended on the score

真好聽

... IMPOSSIBLE À Enregistrer.... Pourqoi ?...

Such a sumptuous, atmospheric performance! Kyung Wha is so gifted.

A beautiful moment of music .... Serkin as usual, slow but passionate, (the Klemperer of the piano ?) giving us a sincere and affectuous testimony

Bolet has made me love this piece - that I usually didn't like in the hands of other pianists.
