  • there are no adequate words to describe how beautiful this piece played out. The strings and the piano absolutely blend together flawlessly. I agree with ahonda55. Right around 10:00, the music peaked with such an avalanche of emotion yet Grimaud performed with just the perfect restraint. unlike so many other artists displaying with over the top showmanship, she simply ties her hair back, no flashy outfit, definitely refreshing to see Grimaud with such pristine and angelic talent.

  • very wonderfully played, but still needs much work dynamically.

  • Lindíssimo. Obrigado

  • ...DULCEMENTE ...MARAVILLOSA...

  • Great music! I did not know that "All by myself" is the interpretation of Rachmaninov piano concerto!

  • LOVELY . CHARMING . BRILLIANT .

  • What delicate touch! She gently evokes the melancholic, female character of the melody.

  • I love her simple dress and make up , if any. She is pure , like a limpid spring of music .

  • Excelent i brillant!!! Gran pianista i gran compositor rus, música iirrepetible i inagualable..

  • EXCELENTE !!!!!!!SOMBRAS Y ANGUSTIA EN EL PRIMER MOVIMIENTO,!!!!!!!

  • I guess they're plucking their strings in this interpretation as well.. In the Graffman/bernstein, you mainly hear the plucking, not the clarinet
