Plays the accentuation of the motive wrong every time it comes alone. Starting at the very beginning of the movement..

Fantastic.

Awesome Frederick...I've been following you since the Van Cliburn. You are an awesome pianist!

Not just okay. Much better... extremely exciting. Wow. Who needs Glen Gould. Mr. Chiu can play it for us on You Tube. We are fortunate indeed. Thank you sir. I will be buying another one of your CD's. I have the one of Ravel, Decaux and Schonberg, titled "Reflections". The more I see and hear, the more I become convinced that you are a great artist and entertainer. But you have also provided to me revelations of the truest meaning of music.

Man-orchestra.Awesome!

great performance! 5 stars :)
Great playing, with "orchestral" sound. Very clear phrasing, rhythm and dynamics.
Reminds me of the words of H. Neuhaus:
"The orchestra is the first solo-instrument, the piano, in rank and importance, the second."
And of the words of Anton Rubinstein:
"Do you believe that this is only *one* instrument? It can be *hundred* instruments!"

Does anyone have the Glenn Gould recording of this transcription? I recall a clearer phrasing, but that was 30 years ago...would like to compare. Please upload if you have it and have my deep appreciation.
