Wilhelm Kempff is good. Just listen to Krystian Zimerman and you'll notice the diference. I admit that faster is not always better. In this case the interpretation of Zimerman sounds more like Schubert to me!
Now, that's is quite another matter! Fast, certainly, not trashy like Zymerman!
Kempff's recording of well-known pieces is inordinately often revelatory. In 7 or 8 out of 10 cases he seems to find a lot of beautifull things many a pianist completely miss.
Kempff really has to be felt and heard and the cleanest technique does what he says.Schubert is really not an easy style to master. We can definitely learn a lot from Kempff!
MAGNIFICENCE ITSELF! Kempff is unapproachable in this repertoire. This is a difficult, technically demanding work, and Kempff trips the light fantastic here - with aplomb! WOW! LOVE it!!! Thanks so much for this post. It is a gem.
@Noshirm If you like this piece, please listen to the recording with Andreas Staier. In my opinion, he not only approached, but also surpassed all the masters!
