  • I agree!! His fingers are very elegant...Or rather... was very elegant. His performances of his younger years (as this utterly amazing example) was on a way higher level than they are today. It seems he's grown old. But performances as these are amongst the best!

  • Oh he is doing now even better. That was a time when he was slightly remote from piano taking his time for religion and philosophy ( 1995-2002 ).

    Since 2005 he is fully back to the piano and better then he sever was!

  • Svetlana,

    Glad to hear it. I still have the signed program from that unbelievable 1984 recital. Andrei was trembling so much he tore through the photo in the programme with the ballpen. Please pass on my love and undying admiration. I hope he turns into the mature artist that we all know he has the potential to be.

  • He already there and all you have to do just wait till he comes to UK:) S

  • @Puchjok I listened yo him las night in Valladolid (Spain). Just great. I payed 1€ for the ticket(last minute one) and I think there's no better way to spend 1€ (or 30, that was the official price).
