Valentina Lisitsa : solo take recordings Rachmaninoff Piano Concerto #4 (2/2)

[musicfanBRA]

I love her style . Just look at 4:40- 5:00. that's class.

Wearing those boots, she belongs on top of a horse, yes, in Hollywood, packing a Colt in her holster. How fast is she on the draw? For a cowboy, sorry, a cowgirl, plays amazingly good piano. Steiway grands in the Wild West in any significant profusion?

Is she practising the solo parts from the concerto or is she rehearsing the work as solo piano without orchestra? Valentina please release more dvds not just cds.

@carlcarp43 : these are solo takes and that's common procedure in classical music recordings. It will take too far and too much space to explain further. Valentina recorded with orchestra the day before and the day after these solo takes. Her playing with the LSO was fabulous.

There is no question in my mind that she will go down as the greatest female pianist of our time.
