Mais quelle splendeur ! profondeur de l'interprétation et pour ce prélude une générosité débordante de ce pianiste d'exception, que demander de plus ? que pourrait-on faire d'autre que de dire MERCI au hasard, de nous avoir permis de vivre en même temps que cet homme aussi discret qu'impressionnant ? Amitiés musicales
It's wonderful of you to bring this bounty to our ears - and with the sheet music too! Just briefly I find myself thinking of these interpretations: is there occasionally a lack of an essential simplicity or even verve? But then I listen a little more; and I realise how very special Sokolov's perception, with its essential introspection and lack of show, truly is. So many of today's pianists (not least Yuja and Khatia) skid glibly over works like these like a brand of floor polish. Instead, you have brought us a treat which will promise food for thought for years to come.
Love how you can hear fragments of the third piano concerto in here.

most romantic and emotional interpretation
Love it! Rachmaninov + Sokolov = Happiness!

So often we hear the transitions into and out of the middle section not played convincingly. But here it is wonderfully well done.
Thank you for your interpretation of No.5.
This is so beautiful.
I liked this very much. Thank you.
Yes he sure is the goodest! Thanks for bringing this to us!
Phantastisch ❤❤❤
"Goodest" - not a word and so ugly!! "Best" is what you meant.
Haven't you consulted the new issue of the Newspeak Dictionary yet?
Shouldn’t it correctly be most goodest?
Absolutely! The most goodest pianist in the world! ❤️
Thank you for making us understand why only men are geniuses.
Wonderful music 😀, horrible these masks 😬!
lol why? pretty sure this was performed earlier when the pandemic was in full swing
