[aardvaark069]

GODowski is underrated

[TheJuanitoPianist]

Al Estilo de los Grandes Pianistas-Compositores del Siglo XIX. Una gran evidencia de su Majestuosidad.

I always enjoy watching Hamelin playing the piano, his hands are so firm and strong!

[richclayderman]

ahh this guy, this guy...he's THE guy

[f1f1s]

Hamelin has banished all the showing off away from himself, remaining only seriousness. I wish he made the "chicken dance" like in his 1990s Alkan recording again...

Although, he has invested all his humour into the brightness of his music. I hope he will write a humoresque or a parody on some composer...

[Pianomaster26]

@f1f1s His etude 6 is something of a parody

[abmsghost]

What an amazing pianist..and what an amzing musician.Best ever therefore my hero.

[egyptian3rdeye]

[mdeonx16]

Everybody does ^.^

godowsky must be the einstein of classical music...

[IlDottoreFaustus]

But Godowsky once commented Einstein on his classical music career : "What's the matter? Can't you count? One, two, three, four. One, two, three, four! "

[frenchmusician12]

What a great piece of music. Makes me want to go find the score and give it a whirl. Course I have no hope of approaching this interpretation. Genius how he is able to slowing build the emotionally intensity at just the right pace to keep you interested but not give away the full passion until the end.

[coqdorysme]

he always looks so sad though ...

[4candles]

Maybe it's because he's been through a divorce and has such a busy schedule?

[LetTheMusicFlow1]

hamelin looks so different now....he lost weight, no more glasses, and much less hair............technique is phenomenal as always, however.....

[4candles]

I suppose he's getting older! I'm sure his schedule takes it out of him too.
