Wow! Ive never seen him this young . Would luv to hear his Leeds and Van Cliburn performances esp. Lupu in 20th century work . He played so little. Dif he ever perform A Bartok concerto .I know he played Bartok and Prok 2nd concerto. I think from his personality Hindemith would have been important to him . Alas , but we dont hear him in this music ! Too bad. Wish he could have performed another 10 years !
I remember briefly meeting Radu Lupu after he had played the Brahms D minor Concerto with the Chicago Symphony Orchestra at Ravinia Park outside of Chicago in the summer of 1977. My friend and I spoke to him about technically challenging piano music. Upon mentioning the Chopin G# minor etude in thirds, he remarked, "Dahm hard!" In discussing piano concertos, without specifying which one (though I'm certain he meant 1 or 2), he said of the Bartok, "Impossible!"
Podría ser uno de los grandes pianistas del siglo
Great live recording and performance

He played the Prokofiev 2nd in the Van Cliburn finals in 1966.
A stupendous performance.
The poster of this video has some other Lupu recordings in their video feed that might be of interest. Cheers!
