Just a tad too fast on Mr. Hamelin's part, in my opinion, it loses some of its nuance, especially during the repeated bass staccato passages. I feel that in Kapustin's recording, they seem much more deliberate; the piece at a slightly more leisurely tempo still conveys the energy and momentum without seeming too frantic.
hey guys? do you think it's possible for me to buy the book of Nikolai Kapustin's etudes and preludes...?

00:47-01:09 is the wittiest parody on Romantic composers I have ever heard! The piece must be called "Winking at Chopin/Alkan".
The overall idea is awash with noble XIX century trends that are ingeniously jazzed and still remain classical music.
Just imagine how Liszt would have ruined this marvel.

I was aware there were pieces called toacattas; I've never heard of a "toccatina" though. Has an almost jazzy feel to it. :)
