@Facconti I got to see Evgeny Kissin last year with the BSO playing Chopin Piano Concerto No. 1 and Grieg's Piano Concerto in A minor. It was quite a treat. He is supremely talented and loves the audience. (He gave 4 encore performances and received such a great standing ovation from the audience! He literally soaked it up!)
But I have to agree with galapz.... I don't like Martha's interpretation as much as others like Horowitz (although she is bloody brilliant when it comes to Prokofiev)
@galapz To me Kissin is the most talented pianist alive, with the exception of Martha and Sokolov, but at their age he might be like them. But it's a matter of taste anyway, I always read ''not so nice'' comments from Argerich hatters in my videos.
@agniky Argerich is in my opinion by far greater artist. I don't think her musical insight is the mater of age, she is simply a greater talent. Still when the two of them when playing Mozart sound so balanced. Not to many people can match her clarity but he is one of them.
@galapz still: quite the age difference.. though not as important in mozart (argerich is clearly at an advantage here. still able to play flawlessly technical but musical insight of higher age.. i still like kissin:D) i wouldnt neglect it.. good its not a competition:D love it
hoffentlich trainieren jetzt nicht alle Amerikaner drauf, es noch schneller zu spielen.

The performance is admirable, but there are simply too many timing coordination errors.
