love 15

[omeralkalay]

absolutely beautiful!!! this man is amazing

[carlosmh83]

Wow I´m Studying the #15 right now, really challenging!!!

[3rednales]

He is truly wonderful. How each Prelude is so individually expressed, so masterfully played. It's been years since I've heard the Preludes by Arthur Rubenstein, this is great.

[DICACIO1]

you must have the ability to obtain and store at least 1 million notes, and be a boss of emotional dynamics to even begin to play Chopin's masterpieces this good LOL

the front-row-seaters are envying his afro...i just know they are! haha

Hard to believe Kissin is almost 40 years old now! He has eternal youth, it appears.

[Grigor99]

No. 17 was not that impressive. A little to big. Started to sound a little like Rachmaninoff.

[1B2L3C]

[zeroxshining]

i like no 15 played by alfred perl

[volodya75]

or Pollini

[felix0911176727]

I like no.17, it has a little Mendelssohn's style... in my opinion.

[ienhastsklader]

The funny thing is that Mendelssohn himself said that prelude no. 17 was something that he would never be able to compose.

[felix0911176727]

Really!? I don't know this story...

[ienhastsklader]

You can look it up in the introduction text in the schrimer edition of the preludes.

[sotempit]

Here's the quote from my edition: "The seventeenth Prelude Niecks finds Mendelssohnian. It is suave, sweet, well-developed, nevertheless Chopin to the core. Its harmonic life is rich and novel. The mood is one of tranquillity. The soul loses itself in autumnal reverie while there is yet splendor on earth and in the skies. Full of tonal contrasts, this highly finished composition is grateful to the touch. The eleven booming A flats on the last page have become celebrated."

[dinoimeri]

Kissin is amazing, but for more drama listen to Pogorelich.

[eirikpilot]

Or Argerich.

[fr4545]

beatifull

[raticida123456]

wonderful

[Tone4Tony]

He can play light as a feather, and strike the keyboard as a lion.

[chobeethaninov]

@Tone4Tony Yes it truly is amazing to see how effortlessly he switches from the most delicate of pianissimos to a full power filled with sonority...and yet he never seems to "bash" the keyboard. Truly a musical genius!

[Blindianboy]

@Tone4Tony

lions don't have fingers, they have paws, silly!

[Or3st1s]

@Tone4Tony a lion would probably gnaw the piano but yeh XD
