[jtandy]

Yes. we all know that Sokolov is on the right, who is playing this recordiing???

[lsbrother]

@jtandy "who's playing?"

well as the title is: 'Grigory Sokolov - Bach WTC Prelude Dm BWV 851'

so a reasonably intelligent person might suspect it's Sokolov playing

i don't know if it's just me, but i'm pretty damn sure that's gilels in the picture, not sokolov...but thanks for the post anyways, good recording :)

[Helkost]

@shruti2321 yeah, there is Gilels in the picture. Sokolov is the boy on the right.

[Quuee7n]

The left one is Lorin Maazel.

@Quuee7n the left one is pianist Misha Dichter, picture took in 1966 during the Tchaikovsky Competition when Sokolov won 1st prize and Dichter came the 2nd, Gilels was the chair of the jury

[Quuee7n]

@thechopinetudes Yes, I think you're right.

What a great picture..& what a great idea to play last accord (VII 7) on 1:10...as a arpeggiato...in urtext I know it is a cord...Sokolov GENIUS !

[finaldestiny17]

@sam0xin actually, it's written that way in some books

[ansonyeung825]

@sam0xin it should be chord not cord
