[Gorrddo]

if you have clicked on dislike button on purpose then you must be an idiot

[SofoQutaisi]

Eliso Virsaladze is Georgian!!!!!

[lizakopelman]

Elisso Virsaladze is one of the best interpreters of Mozart ! 

[janvandoedelpuk]

A russian playing Mozart. And not just to show versatility. A rare combination.

this is first class Mozart playing.

[lashaberi]

@janvandoedelpuk she is not Russian, she is Georgian!

[janvandoedelpuk]

@lashaberi but russian pianoschool

[Pierinopasquotti]

La musica di Mozart è oro e la grande maestra russa Elisso Virsaladze la indora ancora di più.

[satemsh]

@Pierinopasquotti she's not russian she is Georgian!

[aomf58]

Totally amazing!

Can't stop listening it.

[marhomist]

Superior performance!

Thanks to Truecrypt for uploading!

[vivienmerchant]

Transformed music making of the highest order, no?

[kawairx2]

Someone knows if the whole sonata existis? Where is this taken from?

[ditogam]

Thank you so much for wonderful recording and the very interesting story. Respects from Georgia

[aomf58]

What a wonderful interpretation.  Thank you very much.

[CeaserXIX]

@ truecrypt

Apparently, I have been missing so much, thank you very much truecrypt for this intepretation new to me and also the details about the artist. I second beethoven4ever 's request: it would be nice to be able to listen, here, to more pieces by her... .

[beethoven4ever]

Dear Truecrypt, if you are still accepting "fan requests", may i please ask for more Virsaladze? Her simple and yet profound musicality is quite addictive.

I hope all is well.

[truecrypt]

I'd love to but... you know - there are certain issues with contemporary performers. I'll see what we can do though... ;)

[beethoven4ever]

Thank you in advance.

[kawairx2]

When has this been recorded? Where? Do you have the whole sonata?

[serSergo]

the greatest Georgian pianist. We all like and respect you. gmerti paravdes!

[yuldashevgiorgi]

no, she is ONE of greatest pianists, the greatest georgian pianist is ALEXANDER KORSANTIA!!!!!

[truecrypt]

Dear yuldashevgiorgi,

Alexander (Sasha) Korsantia is a good pianist, but he is not even close to Eliso's level. BTW there are MANY superb Georgian pianists, f.e. Alexander Toradze, Eteri Andjaparidze, Eliso Bolkvadze - just to name a few. Korsantia is one of many excellent Georgian pianists, but Eliso Virsaladze is high above all others.

[yuldashevgiorgi]

actually you are right. oh, and one question - you are living in france or in georgia?

[truecrypt]

For sure I'm not in Georgia... ;)

But I knew and know many Georgian pianists...

Love Tbilisi, Kutaisi and Suchumi!

სასიამოვნოა თქვენი გაცნობა!

[yuldashevgiorgi]

ჩემთვისაც, ისე პიანისტი ხარ?

[SpaceCupcakeLovesMe]

she is not russian. she is GEORGIAN!

look at her surname, read her biography!

[flippert0]

It's not by chance that Virsaladze's Mozart was once called 'mystic'. She elaborates fantastically Mozart's minimalist yet transcendent music.

[tamipiano]

Wenn Mozart diese Interpretation gehört hätte, hätte personlich für die Frau Virsaladze komponiert :)

[Pierinopasquotti]

Bravissima!

[trentonandyou]

I don't remember hearing a performance (of any piece) that highlights the work's architecture quite like this. really, an incredible salute to the form of this work!

[levante83]

Elisso said 3 or 4 ago, that she is still learning how to play Mozart...and she doesnot it yet, she has always so much respect for composers!!

One of the best ever!!

[truecrypt]

Didi madlobt, batono Levan! ;)

[toliebi]

Great job! It's the first time I hear rondo alla Turca played in moderato and it feels awesome. I'm proud she is from Georgia!:)

[Tigirini]

Yeah,the recording is just amazing!! She is grate.Glenn Gould plays is moderato also, check it out also. :)

[20Regards]

I had the chance to hear her for a Mozart recital in Antwerp and it was exquisite, not any one taste fault, fresh, original.

This recordings suits me perfect ; the moderate tempo gives this piece a kind of noblesse that is lost with a fast tempo where it becomes a kind of joke, like a public critic of somebody ridiculous !

[pianopera]

"If you want to achieve much, never hurry. You should feel as if you had all the time in the world. Only a free person has time for everything..."

Just quoting the words of her grandmother, and she sure takes all the time in this Mozart! I would like to hear her play in concert...

[truecrypt]

...and you probably can! I understand she is teaching in München and still performing. Her Mozart and Schumann have always been *something*!

[leomulder]

I tend to prefer faster interpretations, but this quotation was great, and Eliso here is at most respectable. Liked it very much.

[chad410]

she actually is very good. i heard her play Rach3 in recital and I have to say though im so sick of it i was tottally a gasp at her imagination

[smithsherman]

Well,I definitely don't feel that this compares with Yudina...BECAUSE...she believes that it's incorrect to use time in Mozart!

How sad,BUT...She certainly makes great use of articulative shadings & dynamics.I'd like to hear her playing this with Authentic

performance practice.That would be something!

[antoinezygfryd]

Je ne sais pas si Yudina fait mieux,mais ma chatte, Natalia Alexandrovna Walewska, est incomparable pour ce qui est du toucher.
