the ONLY thing being polish MIGHT help you "understand" is the mazurkas and polonaises thats IT. which is still believe is crock of ass
-
@soami2u totally false that nationality decides whether you play beautifully.. Being Polish might be an advantage when understanding Chopin, but the rest of the world is going to appreciate great playing anyways...
-
@gtimny What about Friedman?. for me unsurpassable in the Mazurkas. Incidendally I agree with your assessment of Horowitz in this particular performance, he usually plays these minature masterpieces with a captivating spontaneity that is obviously absent here.

WOULD EVERYONE PLEASE SHUT THE FUCK UP ABOUT RUBENSTEIN ON VIDEOS OF HOROWITZ PLAYING CHOPIN. yes, rubenstein is brilliant, but i'm sick of seeing people argue about the 2 on every single horowitz/chopin piece on youtube. if you think rubenstein is so much better, go watch him instead and leave us to enjoy the glory of horowitz and frederic. -end rant-

@soami2u rafal blechacz - nah im just messing with you i know what you're saying. i do belive though that a musician needs to truly understand some areas of polish culture and history to play the music. people dont even realize how much chopin's music was influenced by polish culture --- for a pole chopin sounds familiar to something, no one knows to what, but to something always its like... "hmmmm"

Yes, the other dimension is Horowitz.

Amazing interpretation but I also love the more sensitive way Rubenstein plays this mazurka.

You do NOT have to be Polish to play Chopin--that is absolute nonsense. Three of the greatest Chopin pianists EVER were not the slightest bit Polish: Cortot (French and Swiss--Chopin himself was half-French); Novaes (Brazilian, and a student of a student of Chopin himself); and Lipatti (Romanian, and a student of Cortot). In my opinion Ignaz Friedman was one of the best Polish interpreters of Chopin (I prefer his playing in many ways to Paderewski's or Rubinstein's).
