  • Wonderful performance! The Prokofiev cadenza is one of the most difficult to play technically and also get the right balace, tempo, and control. Very good job. The best recording of the cadenza, IMO, is Horacio Gutierrez's recording - the best ever on record.

  • He loses cohesion cohesion in the cadenza but regains control at about 2:58 I think.

  • Best recording of this piece i´ve ever heard is by Dagmar baloghova

  • ...Grande Kissin...

    

  • This is excellent but for me, Yuja Wang's performance cannot be beaten - she must have super-human genes to play like she does.

  • Сумбурно. Много грязи.

    Тот же Ашкенази очень чисто и понятно играет.

    Молодой еще Кисин.

  • Indeed it is not.

    Bear this in mind: his interpretation on the latest CD is superior and I highly recommend it to any Prokofiev enthusiasts.

  • @superstition222 I think Ashkenazy does it best but I will say it is the greatest challenge one can come across to play this

  • We don't like to criticize a fine artist, but he sounds a bit "lost" here. The greatest challenge in this cadenza is to make each measure seem like an inevitable result of the preceding... to keep an intellectual grip while unleashing tremendous passion. Kissin seems to fail in this. It seems to be put together piecemeal.
