I don't speak German or Russian, so we'd have to communicated solely through mime-like behavior.
Living: Andras Schiff: His playing has an impression of Chopin, somehow... He seems like a great person.Dead/ Recorded: Rachmaninoff: I believe it would be great to meet him, and talk not only about piano, but also about the problems he went through in his time, and his stories. Dead: Bach.
3 choices - 1 living, 1 dead RECORDED pianist, and 1 dead pianist before the recorded era.give reasons, and what you would like to say and discuss with them
Dead - Beethoven - he is my favorite overall composer. I would go back in time to before he started losing his hearing, and warn him to lay off drinking out of leaded goblets. Except then I'd be messing with the space-time continuum, wouldn't I? Some of his greatest compositions that we have today might not have been written at all, or might have been composed quite differently, if he had been hearing. Hmm well in that case, I would just let him know that in the 21st century, he's still loved and remembered as one of the greatest composers ever, and that his music is still played in conservatories and concert halls throughout the world.
Liszt or Brahms..HorowitzPerahiagood thread...raffy
Living: ArgerichDead: ChopinDead recorded: Lang Lang

Elaborate please. Did you talk to him for long or what?
Living: Hamelin, Grimaud () or Berezovsky, though meeting the latter without the right safety equipement might be hazardous.Dead recorded: Probably Arthur Rubinstein because he seems like such a fascinating guy.Dead unrecorded: Liszt, Henselt or Anton Rubinstein.
yeah rubinstein seems like a really nice guy from videos ive seen.but why henselt? he was notoriously a bit of a ************
