3 different pianos, 3 different concert halls and 3 different recording equipment… yet all 3 recordings sound so beautiful and elegant to me. It’s impossible to pick a favorite…

The last one. But are all your three performances really amazing. Thank you for posting ❤

The performances themselves are quite similar, but you really shine on the Fazioli. The precise control, brighter sound, powerful bass, and sharper contrast bring out the best for your style with its intense use of soft and loud dynamics, bursts of explosivity, and need for responsiveness. I can already imagine some Alkan's pieces on this monster, that should be spectacular to hear.

I agree! I love playing on Fazioli pianos. Thanks for your lovely comment! ❤️

All good but I like the last one most. Great to see how well you are developing as an artist Sophia, the future is yours. ❤ from Iceland.

Three performances are like three roses, they're all very beautiful. Yet, the 1st clip in this video that you played in Boston was more poetic in dynamic and color, and a little bit freer of your own expression❤🎉 Wishing you more fun & happiness performing as always!😅

There are slightly bigger differences than I would have expected. None of the recordings are completely flawless, in my opinion, but if I had to choose, I'd pick the first one. The last one is a very close second, especially considering you clearly control Fazioli well. However, the difference in the piano and the acoustics definitely matters, both in the perception while listening and in your intention while playing.

This reminds me of the movie "Sophie's choice"... However my heart goes to number one for its easiness, smoothness and freedom
