ravel est un des grands compositeurs qui savent rejoindre l'âme humaine par la musique :)

I hate this because it is so difficult and it doesn't seem like it is!!!

I also love it for it's complex melodies.

Argerich makes this seem so easy and amazing.

One of my favorite pieces of piano music. I think Argerich does it better than anyone. Pogorelich's is also really dark (and exceptionally slow and deliberate).

My favourite interpretation. I just listened to Richter's, and while it's very Richter, I prefer Argerich's feminine/fiery flair she gives it. IMO.

just the right amount of additional imagery in these short films to enhance the music without getting in the way of our appreciation of Martha's tremendous interpretation. I love how these look as well as sound. Thanks for posting.

best interpretation I've heard

So dark, gave me a mysterious sense
