Best of the best! Compares to his famous berlin gala version this one has more personality, passion and aggressiveness.

This Michail Pletnjov sounds strangely similar to some other genius pianist I know.... :)

[@ClassicalRaritiesChannel]

Why?

[@ADGO]

oh sorry, I was just joking about the Dutch spelling of his name. I used to live in the Netherlands and how they spell things always makes me laugh :)

[@ClassicalRaritiesChannel]

Ah I see :) It is actually way more correct than the default "Pletnev" as you probably know!

[@ADGO]

Yes but we'll never let propriety get in the way of a good laugh :) Thanks for the recording.

Отлично! Мне кажется, что у Темирканова энергичнее звучит. Но ведь Темирканов - мой земляк.
