Pavel Raikerus - Prokofiev Toccata op.11

[gatomjp]

Superb! This is slower and cleaner than most versions, with a more sensitive attention to dynamics.

[lsbrother]

played with flair and precision - beautiful

[pobz100]

This is superb. At first I thought it was a little too cautious, but I was cleary mistaken.

[AIakar]

what's the shortcut?

[aizendarwin]

I don't like him.....coz he took the shortcut

[Steinwaytoday]

@aizendarwin wtf is the shortcut?

[Zebeldarebel]

gah, he took the SHORTCUT!

[OrangeSodaKing]

@Zebeldarebel What's the shortcut?

[Zebeldarebel]

@OrangeSodaKing Starting at 3:10, it should be played exactly the same as 1:24 to 1:47 with the exception it is a whole step up, but instead he omits a great deal of measures which several pianists seem to do in this piece for some reason. Even Horowitz is guilty of the taking "the shortcut". In fact, I think he's responsible for setting that trend. I've never seen a copy of the music that omits that portion.

[OrangeSodaKing]

@Zebeldarebel OH yeah I noticed that now! Being used to Xiaotang Tan's "Tang Tang's" performance, I caught that now. :D

[ProteusX2]

satanic paradise turned into mr. chomps vs. pacman

although that is not to say that this isn't a brilliantly unique interp

cuz it is.

[horatiodreamt]

Anyone ever Horowitz's rendition of this toccata? Amazing.

[mrmonkeybuns]

only 2nd to martha's

[OrangeSodaKing]

Xiotang Tan does it very well too.

[Anders039]

Interesting is the right word here.

[michieldpiano]

Very interesting performance

[Schnabel87]

Really good performance. His manner of attack is varied and interesting throughout, making this a very exciting perf. DA PAVEMENT ZTRIKES AGAIN.
