    can’t anyone just appreciate the effort it took to play this. i don’t care whether or not you’re a prodigy or a “piano genius”. it just annoys me how people are eithrr saying it’s too fast, or too slow. or it’s too sticky, no pedal, hammerfist play, you always need to find a way to find an imperfection. so just appreciate the music as it is. if you don’t like it, don’t listen.

    This rendition is awesome. I've been playing this song consistently for over a year now and I still need to improve on certain parts. This piece is technically and physically demanding and it's nice to know that it can be played to perfection. Not by me..yet.

      Im about 90% the way there with this piece. I agree it’s physically demanding, it’s easy to start falling apart because your hand gets fatigued especially that relentless octave pattern in the middle. If you don’t relax your wrist your doomed! It’s an amazing piece and well worth the effort.

My piano teacher told me if I worked and practiced it everyday for six months I could learn it. It's a really long piece, memorizing everything is the difficult part for me right now. You will definitely be able to play it! Keep practicing!!!!!

    @graeme011 2 роки тому +1

    I am worried about this performance. It seems to me that the level of "rubato" has been determined by the level of difficulty. That is, slow down when the fingering is difficult, and speed up when it's easy! Rubato should be a matter of artistic taste, not technical difficulty! Sorry if I am being harsh. It's still a nice performance.

    In my opinion, Seong-Jin Cho played this piece better. Watch either of his performances at the Chopin Competition. This one feels much choppier. It seems like he didn’t pedal enough for about a quarter of the piece and didn’t roll a bunch chords where he should have. Most importantly, his rhythm just feels too mechanical and choppy. Maybe I’m just used to the Cho interpretation, but I think that Pollini’s interpretation is just too choppy for my taste.

    I wish I could like this interpretation just majority do in the comments. This is by far one of the laziest ones I've heard, especially for Pollini and this piece. So many missed marks in this piece. It almost sounds broken as if he just learned how to play it and never practiced it. There is no cohesion with the music and the notes written.
