I'm surprised that there are more than 5 people don't like this :(

@FreackZz I agree with you, but not 100%. Country where you born, your native language - it is all plays great deal to understanding culture. Of course westerns can play Rachmaninoff(as an example) great, BUT they will never play it and understand it like Horowitz does(who had roots in Russia) and Rachmaninoff himself .

You saw probably lang lang 3d concerto,,

Anyway I listen russian music more than european( i love it too).

But i feel more Russian music.

@musicpiano14 thats like saying only polish can understand chopin's work, and only chinese can understand tan dun's work, and only westerners can understand john cage's work. no one is special. the interpreter is merely a mirror, reflecting the composer's intentions, not adding nor taking away anything from the piece.

Sorry, but no one except Russian(truly Russian) can understand this melody. I do not disriminate, I respect western pianist, but this is true. We Russians have very special soul, may be crazy at one point, but special.

I agree with NOSEhow1LIV. It is very wooden , but it could be because of the piano.
