No one plays Chopin better than this guy.

I adore Horowitz's performance of this from the 1940's and Cécile Licad's much later, even more poetic and equally virtuosic interpretation, but both owe much to Cortot, whose lyrical insight and sense of fantasy remains incomparable.
How tedious mere excellence appears in the light of artistry of this calibre!
Greater accuracy and hard-edged virtuosity like Grante's are no match for this depth of feeling.
