How dare they cough?I would be honoured to suffocate for this miracle masked as a piece of music.

@zhangensprachen I'd say he's getting increasingly unhappy about the coughing and is trying to make them hold

ça dépend des goûts.....

@tuberobotto A high point of my life was on a Paris business trip when my SNECMA host talked about Ravel, I opined that only a French pianist played him perfectly (without mentioning Samson Francois by name). He replied that he used to turn pages for him, and kept him from falling off the bench, so I knew that we were talking of the same person - Francois was a notorious drunkard and doper, who died a few weeks after collapsing on stage. Listen to the Francois/Youtube Adagio.

@TheEntity91 Ravel worked intensely a full week polishing this movement, yet Charles Dutoit has called it 'elevator music'; Jean Yves Thibaudet in person with Paavo Jarvi and Cincinnati excelled, but the Thibaudet/Dotoit CD stinks. This Adagio is the movement I judge all pianists by, and can identify each of them. This one is good, but Helene Grimaud is better.

Michelangeli est un des plus grands pianistes. Son jeu est d'une pureté cristalline. L'extra terrestre du piano ! (entendu dans une émission de France Musique).

Beautiful beautiful beautiful and indefinable sad.

今まで聴いた中で一番いいです。ユンデ・リもよかったけど。

Like Helene Grimaud's version better. More passion.

A human wrote this, a mere mortal like you and me wrote this immortal piece of beauty. I wonder what it meant to him.

Cellos were probably playing too loud...
