This is so beautiful and reminds me of the time I was allowed out from school to attend a concert of his in the Theatre Royal[since demolished] in Dublin.His interpretation of Chopin is without compare.Thank God for such as he.
If I have my facts right, in this same concert he played the second concerto by Chopin. I've been dying so dearly for his live recording of that wonderful work. But unfortunately it is not available commercially. I know it was performed in Israel, but that's all. What I wouldn't give to hear the entire performance...
@advisorC101 The Chopin 2nd Concerto from the same concert is available on DVD (Euroarts). This concert was in London, Royal Festival Hall, not in Israel. The orchestra was the Israel Philharmonic
Er ist und war mein größtes Vorbild. So zu spielen. Jede Energie geht nur in die Hände und Finger, Alles ist darauf konzentriert - Kraft, Seele, Geist, Wissen, Liebe. Da kann der Körper gar nicht rumhopsen.
