Yes, yes, I agree with the fun and virtuosic reimagining, and this Mozart is that in the end. But to give a judgment, I think I need to listen to many other pieces.
Don't judge a book by its cover... well, nowadays we can also overlook it.
But.....
But seriously, do Chinese women wear these costumes?
The Turkish march being played is not his reimagining but a paraphrase by Arcadi Volodos, a great pianist who often works in this manner; listen to some of his live performances... https://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arkadij_Volodos'
Volodos's example is extremely fitting for the discussion regarding talent that we were having in another topic. Volodos is someone who started studying the piano seriously very late. Without talent, he would not be the virtuoso he is today, even by studying 24 hours a day without interruption.
Yes, but in the end it's like this... talent is sometimes hidden... and then all of a sudden... age or gift doesn't matter... it bursts out forcefully and asks you to do only that and follow only that path. After all, art is always hungry... many times you feel used by yourself.
Guys, I have seen some of her other performances and.. in all sincerity, I just can't appreciate her...
I also found a more modest version..... from the point of view of the staging ...Chopin after all required it... with his intimate poetics but... furthermore, on a fairly complex part, she even seems to lose the light of the..... execution..... and also other technical mishaps surely due to fatigue.
I don't want to be nitpicky but... there is just a way of being of hers that does not deviate from her way of being a pianist...... the two things unfortunately are linked...
She is not the type of pianist I would want to learn from, to put it briefly.
here is the link.
do note at minute ( 6.50-6.52 .........or a sudden break at 7.10, too abrupt transition in volume..... or at 8.30 ...confusion and various muddiness )
