i didn't hate it

Once I had a chat with Georg Vasarhelyi. He told me that he attended a concert with Lipatti in Switzerland in his young days. He said "I don't recall one tone of that concert. But I recall that the concert stage with Lipatti was one huge clear LIGHT!". Yes, we almost SEE the light when listening to Lipatti!!

[trschaefer]

Such a light touch!!

[Nimenicamine01]

que desgracia con la pesima calidad de las grabaciones rumanas. La extrema pobreza de este pais es capaz de destrozar a este genial interprete mediante su descuido...

[billyguns2]

We get the character of the music under Lipatti's sublime playing, which is also technically astounding but doesn't draw attention to the mechanics; Lipatti was just the greatest pianist/musician I ever heard. As always, there is a touching sincerity and vulnerability to his playing that is quite special, with no "quirks" or strange accents or voice leadings. He is my role model.

@billyguns2

"greatest pianist/musician" well put up, he was the greatest exponent of no compromise between the 2.

Simon Barere owns Gnomenreigen.

[lovesGenet]

[firesong75]

Superb playing - so musical and technically marvelous!

[puffo3500]

Wonderful!!!!

[assindiastignani]

Simply wonderful. But, check out Guiomar Novaes.

[pagloo]

Lipatti and Cziffra tell this story best, I feel.

[seahyimin]

his gnomenreigen really represents the gnomes very well, like cziffra's. lipatti is one of few who plays this piece fast and light enough

[alinwwedxcena]

ascultand piesa asta ,ma simt mandru ca sunt roman

[prunyi]

@alinwwedxcena Piesa, sau interpretarea? de piesa ar trebui sa fii mandru daca ai fi ungur! :-)

[paulostroff99]

[weikko79]

[ForRoy]

amazing...

[evamillovici]

proud to be a romanian

[ieronim2003]

Oh my god!!!!!!!!!! this is all i have to say

[NOSEhow2LIV]

Amazing,I never suspuct the existence of this.The sheer ease and shapely gleaming grace of Gnomenreigen puts it among the best. What a fantastically musical player,the poetry always to the fore;Leggy is beautiful;most pianists would be happy with these as finished performances,Lipatti always thunk to improve even more!

[deandusk]

pretty fast :| excellent

[ayso78]

Recordings of Gnomenreigen are a dime a dozen, but this one's certainly near the top of the heap.

[cyra70]

[stienwayz]
