  • Andsnes is a deep and sincere artist with passion for what he does.

  • He is not gay. He lives together with a female partner, but they`re not married yet i think.

  • Leif Ove Andsnes has go to be the best piano player in the world. Watch his hands in this video and you will see how amazing he truely is. He definitely channels some great energy into his piano playing. He's the best clearly and continues to be the best in every performance that he has.

  • Where is the very first part of the Cadencea?

    I like the freshness of Ove's playing.

    He plays it in quite a theatrical way,but it kind of fits. However, he does make some mistakes (not in the cadenza, but in the part before, in the other video 3:50) and pushs the tempo (for example when there is a stretto) to the very limit!

  • Leif Ove Andsnes is a great pianist no doubt. I have followed the entire concerto with the music sheet in my hands and could not find any technical or musical shortcoming. I completely agree with daywithering, Andsnes is an outstanding artist of the piano

  • I have been learning this concerto, I can play the notes but not to proper speed. I have been working on this for 3 years. I am 65 years old, retired microbiologist, and love the piano. What is your suggestion on the fingering for the left hand with the Cadenza in the first movement. You help is appreciated. Joe McMinn

  • His recording of Bartok's piano concertos are really good. I doubt many other pianists can play those concertos.

  • Leif Ove Andsnes is the greatest pianist of all time! Better than Argerich, Horowitch, Pollini, Pogorelich, Berowsky, and many others!..

  • thats a very bold statement...whats your reason?

  • It is nice to find a virtuoso who understands the lyric soul of this music. So many of this generation consider faster to be better. Bravo Leif Ove!

  • The cadenza of this concerto is a tour de force for any piano virtuoso. Great pianist, no doubt. Look forward for the full version

  • One of the best I've heard, including Ignaz Friedman's. The Audio Engineer, too, outdid himself. On my little PC, I heard real High Fidelity for the first time. Splendid.

  • I just love his interpretation of this piece. Unlike other fad pianists of this generation, I think he's got true staying power as his art gets deeper. That said, his first recording of the Grieg Concerto (for Virgin Records) is better than his second recording for EMI. By the way, who's that gilded queen sitting in the front row at the beginning of this clip?
