Here's my video-portrait of piano genius Valentina Lisitsa, my favourite classical pianist and certainly one of the very best classical pianists the world has ever witnessed. I interviewed and filmed Valentina on 2 April 2009 in London. I've combined my material from London with dvd-material and pictures of Valentina (all used with permission) and I hope the result shows both Valentina's immense musical powers as well as her friendly, spontaneous, energetic and witty nature... she's such a delightful person. Apart from this portrait I've published the complete pieces of music Valentina played during the interview (4x Rachmaninoff and 1x Schumann) elsewhere on my Youtube-channel. Check them out, they're all great performances! It was so much fun meeting Valentina and producing this video! :) Hope you'll enjoy this video and look out for your response.

indeed, Lisitsa is one of the best pianists around. With ability like hers one is perplexed every dog knows a piano clown Lang Lang and very few know the name LISITSA!
thankyou to valentina and his interviewer! I hope to see much more contributes, i have no word to say how I appreciate her music. I hope to meet her one day. Greetings to all from Italy - Firenze
Is it just me, or is there nothing sexier than a woman with a Slavic accent!!! I can listen to her voice (and playing) all day long.
Great job Pieter, but the video/interview was MUCH too short! You should go track her down, drag her back to the studio, and do a 60 minute interview!!!
