To uploader: Maybe you can tell me label of cd (album, compilation) you ripped this from?

[EvaHartwig]

@montimer357 -

На моем канале исключительно записи, сделанные в СССР. Как известно, Гилельс концертировал на Родине в зимнее время, и это, к сожалению, отражается в посторонних шумах, которых нельзя не заметить. Посетители YouTube высказываются по этому поводу в своих комментариях - кто с юмором, а кто и с раздражением... Но живую запись ничто не заменит.

That's a really striking profile photo of Gilels. Where could we find it? Is it on a CD cover, or a website somewhere? I tried searching images of Gilels in Google and couldn't locate it.

@konotoso

It is a screen.

About the same time of this performance Gilels made a studio recording of this piece with Ormandy and the Philadelphia Orchestra which has always been my favorite recording. This live performance is equally as good pianistically, but of course the orchestra can't compare; Kondrashin, as always, was a superb collaborator.

[EvaHartwig]

Yes, with Ormandy it was recorded December 31 1964.

E. G. worked with some great foreign conductors -- Klemperer, Böhm, Karajan, Szell, Ormandy, Mehta, Jochum...

I prefer the live records -- when they are not too painstaking remastered.

Why do people always cough at live recordings. Wouldn't you have the decency to not be in the hall if you have a bad cough. I never understood that!

amazing, our life...

[LUISTARWIND]

Gilels Truly a king among Pianists.

Filosofem: Majestic, Divine.

This is truth from the heart. It brought tears, thinking on my life nostalgic.

You will find people who are waiting for music to start to start coughing! Richter was talking about that once...

[Bret6464]

With such a surreal performance as this, the extraneous sounds fade away - all you hear is Gilels, and a great orchestra, and a superb conducter :-)) Thank you, again :-)
