The Quiet Revolutionary of the Piano – Fauré’s Complete Piano Works Now on Piano Street

In the pantheon of French music, Gabriel Fauré (1845–1924) often seems a paradox—an innovator cloaked in restraint, a Romantic by birth who shaped the contours of modern French music with quiet insistence.

This may be an strange request, but I would be interested in hearing the recordings of people during their "practice" time.
People often discuss the value of various practice methods, I would like to hear a professional pianist and his/her versions of scales, even Hanon.

Hanon is often discussed here and people often stress the importance of making it musical. Or playing Hanon with some rhythmic variety (or at least in different keys).

I want to HEAR examples of a GOOD pianist doing some of this.

People also discuss scales and doing them in different patterns, and various rhythms, etc.
Again I want to HEAR examples of this.

So......... I wonder if someone could direct me to a place (youtube?) where I could hear some of this. Or perhaps there are some recordings here already?

Thanks
