  • @Ynot1666 "Many virtuosi tend to play things far too fast to emphasize their own virtuosity" This is a very presumptuous statement. How do you know why they play pieces fast? You're calling into question their artistic integrity, which is a serious thing. Did you ever consider that they play the pieces fast because it's the way they choose to interpret them, and not because they're trying to show off? The idea that Richter would need to show off seems silly to me.

  • @Ynot1666: There is no better or worse in any part of this video. There is a simple truth that belongs to Richter which you are not meant to grasp. Same applies to claims that this rendition is "too fast" or senseless, amateur "rushing" comments brought along. The only reason you say Richter was great is because you heard about him, so he is automatically amazing to you. However, seeing your comments and other people that resemble you, it turns out you don't understand why he was what he was.

  • Ravel marks a very quick tempo, and this interpretation makes less use of rubato than others, although the rhythmic pulse of the melody is stronger. I am happy to see that he rolls that chord in the bass at the top of the last page as well, I thought my hands were just too small. Remember that music is art, that means that there are many interpretations of the one work.

  • this is a fast version, but quite enjoyable. talented performer + great composer = amusement

  • @Kasseur2fass He was homosexual.

  • @Kasseur2fass I'm sure your wife can confirm too.

  • This guy is soooo bad. He's way too fast (I'm sure his wife can confirms).

  • @marcelmombeek MIJD WALTER ALS DE PEST? Misschien heb je wel gelijk.Maar wat men over jou en je vriendinnetje Greetje Dehoux zei wil ik hier niet publiceren.Zou anders onderhevig zijn aan hevige censuur.Have a nice day.Ik vind jullie een leuk koppel en ik wens jullie allebei het beste en nog veel genot met elkaar.Ajuus!!

  • @marcelmombeekpiano Dat je bij Gevers niets geleerd hebt daar kan ik inkomen.Toen ik 16 was deed ik toegangsexamen met Waldstein Sonata,Toccata van J.Jongen en Chopin op.10 nr.5 en 7.Sigrist en Detiege zaten te watertanden.Maar ja ..ik kwam in dezelfde boot terrecht als jij.Dus ik maar brossen.Was indertijd hevige fan van Groslot(misschien kunt ge die ook eens opbellen voor wat sappige anekdotes he) en heb van hem veel opgestoken".En wat "idereen "zegt interesseert mij genen bal!!Capito!
