  • I am very keen on knowing how much time Mr. Hamelin spent practicing that piece...

  • @Eristhenes funny but i love them both but never heard argerich play any of the obscure immensely difficult pieces hamelin plays

  • @Eristhenes I mean 7/9, not 8/9, excuse me.

  • @Eristhenes At 2:35 in the third movement (8/9), the single-note big tune in the piano, Busoni notates it as played with alternate hands, with the intent that it should have tremendous power and verve, in a really blunt and rustic but tremendously brilliant and powerful way, like a rapper or breakdancer or pro wrestler – and you actually hear that on the Ogdon recording. Hamelin makes it sound polite

  • I love Hamlin, he is, like Argerich, an indomitable technician. However, sometimes I wish he (and Argerich) would "let go" and introduce a little passion and not just run through the notes. There are times when passion needs to be tempered but I also believe there are times when temperance needs a little passion.

  • Incredible interpretation, the best I've ever heard! The only bad thing is that hole at 6:37... what a pity.
