Love him or hate him, one thing you can never deny about Michelangeli: the man did have a unique style. And that's saying a great deal.
@leongatha612 жыл бұрын
Michelangeli in his time was considered to be a "pianist's pianist", always impecable musical taste, technique qnd execution; incapable of hitting a wrong note. Always sartorially regal looking. Really in a class by himself.

@meesbroersen But when Royal Festival Hall threatened to sue him, he agreed to play on their piano under one condition. That all the proceeds would be given to a local children's hospital. He also taught legions of students for free(Argerich and Pollini included) let them live on his estate, prepared their meals, and gave them lessons in cooking and wine-tasting. he was also a trained surgeon, fighter pilot in WW2, champion race car driver and expert skier. I have 38 characters remaining so....

Does sound amazing. And he looks so good playing this - what is it - maybe elegance is the right word. He does a great interpretation of this Chopin piece, one of my favorites. Beautiful as it is, I’ve heard that it actually is less difficult than some of Chopin’s other works. Maybe I’ll try it.

@newgeorge10 жыл бұрын
beautifully structural, which this piece really does need. I particularly like the way he treats the middle subject like a kind of second movement after the three octave notes which so puzzles many pianists, not knowing how to integrate them into the piece (me included). Here he gives them enormous significance and it works. I also like the way he maintains the pace through the "triumphal march" passage as though he really were travelling to a destination . . . . great performance. The best one on youtube imo.

excellent observation on the middle subject- this is actually a formal technique Chopin uses in the 3rd ballade as well where he creates a special theme that will be used later to terminate the piece. With that in mind, it certainly deserves special treatment so that it will be effective when reiterated at the conclusion.

I read a lot of people don't like his version. I have to say I prefer this version. It might be skewed because I heard this first but all the other versions I hear sound sloppy and not as defined. I like how this version treats each part very differently and each section stands out very unique.
