  @jeremierocher: but please remember this recording was done in the 60's if I'm not mistaken. Shostakovich was already getting pretty sick. In his youth, he was a superb pianist. Still, priceless to hear this compared to other interpreters. One is so often hears composers playing their own music ...

Of all the wonderful South American arrangements this terrific quartet have done, this is probably my favorite. Superb rhythmically, wonderfully expressive solo bits and stunningly achieved staccatissimo playing, as at the end. So difficult and they make it look and sound effortless. Bravi!!
