Best Pianists - Part 7

The seventh part of the series. This episode will feature less known pianists. These pianists are Dmitri Alexeev, Bernd Glemser, Konstantin Scherbakov and Siegfried Stogkigt.
The reason that there is a picture of a piano in Siegfried Stogkigt's performance is because there are no pictures of him available. Please rate and comment! Enjoy!

Hello, earthatic, could it be that you mean german pianist Siegfried Stöckigt, born 1929 ? (Not "Stogkigt") Look him up on Wikipedia. He was my mom's piano professor in Berlin...

[earthatic]

@geigenmarie WOW! That's fantastic! Highly possible I made a mistake! ;)

[geigenmarie]

@earthatic Just to make you jealous ;-) on thursday I will listen to Glemser playing Prokofiev 3rd Piano Concerto in Leipzig !!! (that's why I found your video: I looked for Glemser...)

[earthatic]

@geigenmarie haha! You are very lucky! To make you jealous.... I once saw Martha Argerich perform Ravel's Piano Concerto in G! ;)

[geigenmarie]

@earthatic You are right: I'm very lucky! As I am a professional violinist and played in various good orchestras since several years, I often get the opportunity to listen to great soloists !!! But Martha Argerich I hadn't the pleasure to meet yet...

[earthatic]

@geigenmarie haha! That is very lucky! ;)

So which orchestra's do you play in? Under which conductors?

Dear Friend,Stogkigt did not perform Tchaïkowsky's 2nd piano Concerto, as announced, but Gershwin's Rhapsody in blue.....

[DarkRaimundo]

I have never heard of these pianists, but their performances are very very good!

I thankyou so much for posting! It is a delight learning more about pianists!

Creo que la de Bernd Glemser es la más bella versión del 3º de Rachmaninov que he escuchado. Conjuga fuerza y un sonido poderoso con una musicalidad extraordinaria. ¡Gracias!

@chachooouuu Rachmaninov, 3rd concerto, 1st movement, cadenza.

[mkeysou812]

I've heard a lot of Rach 3 recordings by all the top pianists, and, while most are very good, there's not one I would say is head and shoulders above the others. The sample recording here, by this Bernd Glemser chap, would definitely be the best I've heard though. Would love to get a complete recording

[chachooouuu]

Hi everybody, I have never heard such good pianists. I'm looking for the piece which is played to 5:22. Someone can help me please ?

[briarcliffbaron]

Wow, what powerful performances . . .the Rach 3, of course, standing tall .

[Masmorra84]

omg the cadenza from Glemser from the Rachmaninoff concerto is just so amazing!!

never heard such a breathtaking cadenza on a studio recording...i'm so proud ofmy teacher!!:))

[roo159]

@passerabianca agreed-- the glemser performance is wonderful

[laqin007]
