  • Personally I am not surprised to learn that he was not awarded the 1st prize int the Chopin Warsaw Competition. His playing is certainly technically awesome but it lacks a great amount of poetic rubato so needed in Chopin. This ballade is a great example............. the opening bars just notes............... and the rest is pretty much note perfect but really does not sing musically ................. I find the same to be true with the recording of the Sherzo................

  • Wonderful.

  • am i the only one who was like SHUT UP LADY at the beginning ???

  • LASTIMA QUE LA INTERPRETACION DEL SEGUNDO CONCIERTO PARA PIANO Y ORQUESTA QUE HIZO SULTANOV EN EL CONCURSO CHOPIN FUERA QUITADA DE YOUTUBE

  • there are some little things in his interpretation which are curious and not in the chopin tradition. Sometimes a little cold overvew of whats happening in this piece, the heart seems to be missing in that moments. But nevertheless this pianist keeps our attention. He was too intelligent to be ignored. He can be compared with Horowitz and Cziffra. Its the same level and struggle for success.

  • god shut up woman

  • The jury failed Alexei in 1995 just as it failed Ivo Pogorelich in 1980 (eliminated in the 3rd round, with Martha Argerich resigning in protest)

  • Гениально!!! Гений фортепиано!!!!

  • Sultanov...

    R.I.P. 

  • one of the few modern day pianists that understood that some melodies can be hummed rather than sung on the piano. A beautifully structered performance , truly poetic. So sad that one speaks of this youngster in the past tense . The jury that did not award A.S the first price made itself ridiculous and will be remembered as such as long as true talent is cherished.
