Yuja is my favorite pianist. Her technical skills are indeed extraordinary, but this is only half of the picture. Her music is so clear and her musical decisions are fantastic. I can't stop listening to her. Thanks for posting this concerto.
fyfyfafa8 - what's better in Argerich? I saw her and Abduraimov within a one day interval at the Royal Festival Hall in London: with all respect for Her Highness, I am not quite sure what should have made her distinctively better than him. Would you mind elaborating, please?
Well, in any case I cannot help worshipping Yuja...
Argerich's recording of this concerto under Claudio Abbado is generally considered to one of the greatest performances of this concerto, if not the greatest. I believe that is what he is referring to.
Yuja Wang, who must be 20 by now, is a highly talented pianist and one with an excellent temerament for Prokofiev. I hope she goes far, but with all the excellent competition out there, it is difficult to survive. I think she will, though. I think she has the virtuosity to stand with the finest pianists of the day.
Does Yuja Wang have a YouTube Channel?

This was the rehearsal right ? No one is allowed to record during actual performance.
