Barenboim's version seems more conventional. Frankly and without disrespect, Gilels' version is cleaner and fresher. He plays the 4th variation at a swift 98 bbm.

..ok, so I couldn't resist actually listening and quickly forgot the Cb as I marvelled at this artist's ability to connect EVERY note, to sculpt the work, to recreate it freshly and spirit it across. He knew about sound, acoustic, tone and had an expressive warmth balanced by complete clarity of intellect. Utterly wonderful. I saw/hread him live only once and I so glad my memories are held up here.

It is such a great pity that the audio presents us with a continuous Cb - the most utterly alien note out of all possible disturbances. However, I watched with the volume cancelled and it was still marvellous. There were so many wonderful things in Gilels' technique; the posture for a start and the smoothest transfer of weight which created liquid gold tone, perhaps the most wonderful tone I've ever heard in a pianist.

Seriously think the audience is dead, especially the guy on the end, seated top of screen in the last chair. Is he alive?

He's lucky he didn't fall of the stool. It looks like he's sitting on air!
