It is not easy to play this popular PC well. I like Leif Oves Andnes's rendition. Michaelangeli's recording rocks too.
Which is your favourite recording of Grieg's PC? |
This is a video of a live performance of the Grieg Piano Concerto, first movement, from Sunday. The accompaniment is played by my teacher.

Okay. I've got a couple of questions for you fine people:
1) Did Rubinstein or Ashkenazy make a single recording of the complete Chopin Etudes? I can find a complete recording on one disc made by Pollini or Perahia, but I'm particularly interested in Rubinstein or Ashkenazy. If they did make the recording, could you tell me where I might find it?
2) On a completely unrelated topic: In Grieg's piano concerto in A minor (Op. 16), around m. 85 (give or take a few, minus the cadenza), where it goes into sixteenth-note chromatic octaves, and eventually into groups of seven (sevenlets? :P), I'm hitting a real speed-wall. I can play them fine slowly, and my teacher recommends that if worse comes to worst, we can just drop the bottom/top note off the octave, but I'd really like to keep the complete octave. Any advice on how to speed that up?
~Thanks tons in advance! |
| I plan to do the Concerto after Moonlight (all 3). How much of a jump would it be? If Moonlight is ABRSM 8, how much would Grieg's be? |
