Thanks 1fattyfatman for your description of Pachmann's playing. I would have chosen your words to describe it had I heard this etude performed by him in 1993 when I wrote "Zee Maestro", a two-hour motion picture about the life of de Pachmann. I'm the only one to have done so, yet the project remains of little interest to the film industry. You are a true soul-mate concerning Pachmann and a very fine pianist as well. In my dreams my film will be made one day and you can do the sound track.

Love how Pachmann ( fine virtuoso even then and able to execute some pretty amazing passage work ) chose to turn this piece into a majestic preludium tastefully announcing the chordal progressions along a string of pearls. Argerich is unmatched for that chattering novelty teeth approach though.. each awesome

And, for those of you who want "perfect and perfectly boring" perfection, try Pollini. It's flawless, yet metronomic. Argerich's is another story entirely.

What it doesn't report anywhere here is that this was taken from a LIVE performance by Argerich from the Chopin Competition. Bad miking, no real choice of pianos, nerves, one take, no post-production. And she STILL turns in one of the greatest performances of this, ever. Imagine what she'd have done with real preparation. She learning the Chopin works as the competition progressed, or so she has said. She was only 24, and had been only in two prior contests, both of which she won, before age 18.

...it is an etude. It is ok to hear the performances within the context of etudes.

What a marvellous comparison. Within Chopin there are multitudes! Thank you for this fine post.

don´t see,where are TWO great pianists?))well,tell me,could you compare Pachman with Liszt?i know,there is no recordings of him,but...you can imagine,when you hear the second part.

Yes quite true! Back in the turn of the century-19th into 20th century- Pianists had far superior pianos to play on. No one can build a piano of the same caliber now a days. It's a lost art. :(

Maybe the best Chopinist of 19th century.
It is difficult to compare: they are the opposite expressions of chopin.
And the instruments are so different too.We must take account of it!
Without contests i WOULD SAY BOTH EXCELLENT.
