Spero che Zimerman e altri pianisti come la Argerich continuino la loro lotta per abbattere le competizioni dove spesso e volentieri vi e' corruzione e dove i giudici spesso non sanno valutare o sono invidiosi e non accettano gente piu' brava di loro.

i love pollini

@musicist001 Zimerman ha tenacemente rifiutato, da moltissimi anni, di far parte delle giurie dei concorsi ritenendoli inutili nella selezione e promozione dell'autentico talento. La Argerich invece è spesso membro delle stesse giurie di grandi concorsi internazionali come il Chopin di Varsavia...

@jjp009 I know what you mean. Zimerman takes a lot of pauses while he plays and comes across as quite relaxed, even in the parts that one wouldn't describe as relaxed.

I wish this was high quality with no mistakes- love Pollini <3

[studiobianconi]

exactly the same what I mean, jjp009 !!!!

I love Maestro Pollini and he is obviously a master of the keyboard, but to me it just seems like he's always rushing through whatever he plays...like he has somewhere else to be.

@marcelmombeekpiano With messing around I more meant that Cziffra and Hamelin were extreme show offs in technique. Richter only used his amazing technique if the music led him to do so, listen to his ballades for example.

I agree with you, I also love Cziffra....mainly in D flat major Hungarian Rhapsody

Otherwise, I agree with you on your opinion on Pollini....Spiritless

[BlazeKenny]

@marcelmombeekpiano recall your opinion about Richter, you just gotta be kidding, thats nonsense...Richter was a musical genius and he didnt just mess around with his technique like Cziffra or Hamelin.

ma questa non sembra la Sala Tchaikovsky ...

Zo hoort ge 't in de conservatoria, he: noten en noten, niks expressie.

Waar is de verfijnde poëzie in deze sublieme muzikale schepping ??!

Een groot, wereldberoemd Italiaans pianist zei me ooit: "Pollini is cold and has always been cold."

Gegroet,

G. Dehoux.
