@Hofsteder Can you tell me where you are in youtubes or your last concert? I'd like to see a sample of your playing. Thanks.

@jegspillerpiano I don't agree with your ranking of Helene Grimaud however I agree with you that even the 1.000th best pianist is a remarkable being. A pianist in full action is, according to a well known neurologist, a neurological miracle. Always, when I listen to a pianist and read the score while he/she is playing I wonder how a human being can do this.

Grimaud used to record on the Japanese denon label when she was ultra young. now she's famous.

Hélène! sei bellissima......ma è una sonata di Schumann con la macchina da scrivere?

@MrNewchange I disagree. That's kind of the classic argument used for people like her. I'm not saying she's terrible, but her skill is definitely way out of proportion with her success. On top of that, the amount that her marketing teams PUSHES her looks -- it's obviously a leverage point for them.

Let's not get ahead of ourselves here. Looks are superfluous when it comes to music; and she certainly doesn't exhibit any unique or special qualities as a pianist.
There may have been some of that. Overall though, beautiful people are given the benefit of the doubt, because it is desired for them to be both good and look good.
