This is very good performance. Pollini did great job. There are very few vids with this study on Youtube such well played as Pollini did. Once more, Great performance!!!

@gentenaarinzweden I like the complete set of chopin etudes by pollini the most (as the whole set). But he is not superb in about any piece he plays. For example, nobody can play this etude as one flow to the coda as Richter did

@muserdave you mean, intro bliss by muse is similar to this intro ;)

sorry pall - I had the opportunity to listen to great pianists and yes I pretend that I can compare: of all pianists I've heard in my life (I'm 56 now) there are a few that left a permanent superb impression on me and there I'd like to name Mauritio Pollini as a living legend. He plays Chopin and Schuman as no-one-else.He plays it so well that in the same moment as you look at him you'll see Chopin. He is unique phantastic, my english is unfortunately too bad to put him in the right light.

@Theonedue Ok, it's right that a pianist doesn't have to make too many mistakes, but I don't know what you're talking about at all. I've listen to the etude again, played by Cziffra and I didn't can hear a mistake. And classical music is something you have to feel, not to make perfect. If you think like that, you don't know what classical music is! And Cziffra's interpretations are ALWAYS better than Pollini's.

takes.

So how many mistakes can a pianist make without detracting from the music? 7, 8, 15? Cizffra not only made a significant number of mistakes, but he changed tempo during the piece as well. His interpretations might in some cases be better than Pollinis, but Pollini has better technique and makes less mistakes than Cizffra on Chopins 1st etude, and probably others. Besides, classical music is best when it is played as written. I'd rather listen to a perfect recording than a interpretation with mis
