@Bret6464 No, Sorel's recording is excellent of course, but not brilliant like that of this young woman. This piece requires an emotional, physical and psychological synthesis. I have heard it thousands of times but never like this. She has studied this music note by note. There are inner voices in this performance that she brings out and which I have never heard before.

@36beachbum I have listened to Lugansky time and time again. I am in fact a Lugansky fan. However ker lyrical lines and expression in this piece are superior in everyway. Some people have a problem with the fact that an Asian-American can play Russian piano music better than a native Russion.

Congratulation Jung Lin! You know you are doing the damn thing when the haters have to travel from video to video to put you down.

Jung Lin is the best, her performing is so full of feeling, very very beautiful. ^_^

As expected the Times music critics were less than impressed with Lola at her Carnegie Hall concert: " Ms. Astanova does indeed love to make a big sound, even at the expense of some murkiness of tone. But her taste for drama and her extreme physical abandon end up emphasizing that there isn’t a great deal of emotion in her playing "

@innovatemusic Best I can say about Lola Astanova is 'beautiful, the music isn't bad either'. That's the top comment on her 'version' of this piece and that says it all. 'isn't bad' is spot on, she struggles and can't even maintain the tempo. When you are older you could learn to differentiate among pianists based on ability. Jung's performance of this piece, her Rach, her Chopin are brilliant and exceptional, worlds better than Lola.

@mgbrad3388 Lola not an exceptional pianist? You must be crazy.but then again - everyone is entitled to their own opinion. I'm done wasting my time with these comments. I'm going to go play the white baby grand I'm looking at right now - the one that due to Lola's unexceptional playing inspired me to buy. At 20 years old I found Rachmaninoff through her - two years later I play rachmaninoff and chopin and improv jazz like a champ. That exceptional enough for you?

[mgbrad3388]

@innovatemusic You serious? Just compare Jung's performances of this piece and the Chopin fantasie impromptu to Lola's versions. Lola is good but she's not an exceptional pianist like Jung. Jung Lin is magnificent!

[innovatemusic]

@NCEPiano - You should all be ashamed of yourselves saying/thinking ANYTHING negative about Lola Astanova. Both Jung and Lola should be seen as they truly are - priceless gifts to humanity who inspire hundreds of thousands of people from all over the world.

Keep spreading your negativity from behind a screen - that's bound to inspire someone.

This is that rare performance of Rach's moment musical 4 that is unmatched and closest to how Rach would perform it. She brings out the intent and expression in the piece, and to say her technique is exceptional in a gross understatement. BRAVA Jung!

Not only is she better than Lugansky, her Rachmaninoff (and Chopin) performances make Lola Astanova sound like a mid-level student.
