@@ksan1648 Well, you just reminded me. A lady pianist has just heard his Turkish March on a mp3 player for the first time. Well, she said, that was a four hands rendition. Well, I said, I don't know how many hands he has got, but he played it alone. Well, she said, how can I tell, not being a pianist? Well, I said, I better call another pianist friend on the phone. He told her, it was Volodos only, and only then she sort of believed it, half way. She is a rather good pianist, btw.

And some people think yuja Wang is the greatest pianist. I hate people who always have to compare one person's talents to another instead of just acknowledgeing each person's talent which I myself dont always do but its impossible to not comment on this man's unique greatness for interpretation and technical ability. I love how he seems to acknowledge the audiences approval with expressions of uncertainty about his greatness. 😆

Questo brano suonato da Horowitz ha senso, perché fatto in un particolare periodo storico e da un interprete che è diretto erede della vecchia scuola ottocentesca... Oggi il suonare Stars and Stripes è solo un vuoto sfoggio di virtuosismo emulativo, volgare e pompieristico... Le doti tecniche di Volodos non si discutono, fa spavento!!!
