I have discovered Mr. Sofronitsky by listening almost all the music here posted. He is absolutely unique for his sense of tragedy, he was gifted by a great soul, no doubt. It is a pity not having the possibility to watch a video.
thanks to all of you

Гениально! хорошее туше, рояль поет

His playing sounds very "in the heat of the moment" and far wilder then other interpreters of this etude, IMO. I would LOVE to see a video of him playing!

@sackwhacker correction, you like Horowitz better, both performances are amazing in their own way, but one can't definitively say one is better than the other. not tyring to start an argument, but this is art and very subjective, just felt your statement did more to put this performance down vs. state an opinion (and one with merrit if you as many are, a fan or Horowitz' interpretation).

Удивительно красивый был человек. Во всех смыслах...

@AldenHardaway not even close!

On par with Horowitz's older recording, at the very least. Easily as individualistic, with an entirely different idea of how long to wait before he slams on the bass octaves! Simply legendary.

Can anybody tell me, who has drawn this extremly good portrait in 2:07, please? And who is the person shown in this drawing?
It perfectly matches to this unbelievable virtous manner to play the piano. Thank you for loading!
Best regards from Germany!

Love how he delays the last chord for a second- adds another dimension to the ending !!!

Sorry, maybe i'm late a bit... this portrait of Sofronitsky was drawn by Ada Viesel(Ада Визель) in 1961, after his death. He was 60 but he looks so young here... RIP/
