This is music where imagination,color,whimsy and the narrative character of the artist show. As always this pianist makes u realize there is color,phrasing,pedals,attacks -beauty! even n the smallest corners of a phrase.
Valentina Lisitsa a certes des doigts d'acier (ses préludes de Rachmaninov), mais elle est aussi (et surtout) une admirable musicienne. Bravo, et merci pour la vidéo.
i am looking at the score in pdf while listening.but i don know why somewhere near the half i just got lost easily.i don know where she is playing.i guess i am not very fast reader.
Hi, this is John Black. There is no way you can remember me but I heard you play with a friend of mine, Abe Kreiger. It was kind of private thing, but wow you could play.
Your Symphonic Etudes were posted a couple months back and I was blown away. That's after hearing Richter's. It seemed you were playing for yourself instead of a huge audience.
Do you still live in Miami? And do you still talk to Abe, I haven't seen him in ages. You're absolutely fantastic though, you truly are.
That is no. 11 and is called "Frightening" or "Furchtenmachen' (with an umlat u) in German. I don't think you will find or hear a better rendition than that by Valentina Lisita of the whole Kinderscenen. I play all of them as an amateur and am in awe at her outstanding technique and musicianship. I am amazed at her wrist and finger flexibility since mine are such opposites.
4:08- My favorite piece from this work... and you treat it with such sensitivity (unlike Vladimir Horowitz... yuck). I don't think I've heard a better interpretation on YouTube :-)
Somebody pretending to be me goes around leaving nasty comments on YouTube. The impersonator's user name is VaIentinaLisitsa - the letter "L" is replaced by capital "i".
If you see this person's comments on other people pages - please let me know . I am trying to stop it and already complained to YouTube . This person is disgusting !!!

Indeed...a very musical performance of "Kinderszenen."
Please consider putting this on cd with the Tchaikovsky "Seasons." :)
