Rafał Blechacz - First round (15th Chopin Competition, Warsaw)

[@harrybmichell]

Still my preferred Chopin interpreter -- he's just unbelievable

[@carlhopkinson]

They could have just declared Blechacz the winner after the first round. So exceptional.

When 2005 recording have better audio than newer chopin competition recordings. It may be just me, but in the recent chopin competition, the piano sound seems oddly muted for some reason and we can't hear the full color of the piano. But in 2005 recordings, the piano is crystal clear and we can hear the full range of the piano.

Zgadzam się

[@erezsolomon3838]

I've also noticed that. It's such a waste, right!?

[@ignacypiekarz8933]

Absolutely.

A Stephen Ridley add on this is fkn ironic and a complete crime

[@howardchen101]

I wonder why he is not that famous ?

[@potek79]

He is

[@Maisiewuppp]

He is now a renowned artist.

[@ignacypiekarz8933]

​@@Maisiewupppyes, but he isn't making as big career as for example Bruce Liu.

[@ignacypiekarz8933]

And that's pretty sad because I think that his Chopin nterpretations in 2005 are one of the bests in the history.

[@Maisiewuppp]

@@ignacypiekarz8933In your dreams.

[@carlhopkinson]
