compared to her -- argerich and many imitators of that "style" of super aggressive playing - are like students trying to impress with how loud and fast they can play while throwing in some token gestures of stock "expression" habits. Fischer is the GENUINE article...deeply musical in every sound, with a mind for the big arch of the architecture, the role of brilliance and playing to play with the most natural elegance of artistic expression.

[tedly10027]

what's especially endearing about her live performances is: she plays "big" but NEVER plays "to the theatre" as many do. rather she plays by "inviting" the listener into the music and then lets the music and her playing embrace you into that world. she is first an artist and musician and only second a "pianist".

[berlinzerberus]

..Just for these reasons Mme. Argerich cannot even hold a candle to this outstanding artist!

Ya, Annie Fischer!!

[darkblueangel1956]

Annie Fischer è stata una pianista di notevole statura artistica, soprattuto negli anni '50 e '60. La sua musicalità era proverbiale e la sua sensibilità si irradiava tra l'orchestra e tra il pubblico, come un fluido tangibile. Purtroppo nelle esecuzioni "live" non era infallibile e immacolata. Nelle sue ultime esibizioni pubbliche pare rischiasse molto con piccoli vuoti di memoria.

fantastically musical! i love it!

[jakmere]

can everybody stop with this fucking psychobable and say something meaningful. first of all, martha argerich is incredible. secondly, fischer makes so many damn mistakes that the performance is hard to listen to without cringing. she's clearly having a bad day. what fuck is everybody talking about saying shit like "fischer is the genuine article" or "with fischer, player and instrument are united". Fuck all of that.

[MISHA1119]

With Fischer, player and instrument are united - there is no longer a struggle to make the piano do something. Musical thought and execution are one. Fischer makes us aware that technique cannot be separated from the music, and that

that if a pianist makes technique overly noticeable, she (hint) is not really playing at the highest level possible. This IS the highest level possible in every way. Nouser, I am also very fond of Blechacz. Only he, Rubinstein and Gilels have come near this.

[nousernamewhatsoever]

After hearing Rafal Blechacz's playing this concerto it's just very hard listening to other interpretations.For me,anyway.

[MrLacidaremlamano]

The tempo would perfectly suit a baroque piece. like it.

[jonnyenglishlim]

Sounds too fast at first... but a closer look at the score reveals that chopin really wanted the movement to be taken at this speed...

[uhartchristian]

the tempo isnt that fast , just the right tempo.

those who criticise the tempo here are wrong.

Even Rubinstein did n t do it more slowly. And nobody does find something to say there, so....

[uhartchristian]

you got the poiunt, she had a natural phrasing. It wasnt fabricated. She was a musician born..... Talents like her are very rare. Because of the difficulties her country Hungary went through her name is not more known than it is. If she would have been born and living in Russia or USA she would have been very famous throughout the world. But thats life. A good career depends on many factors. But I can tell you her Paris concerts were booked out..... could hear her in salle Gaveau in the 80ties.
