Which piece Kissin plays?
on: February 14, 2006, 01:00:31 PM
I saw BBC documentary show "Imagine to be concert pianist", which is really superb with alot great pianists like Rubinstein, Hough, Kissin, Lang Lang..
I'm very courious which piece Kissin plays in that show? I know he plays 4th mvt of Chopin's Sonata no.3, but he also plays one piece which sounds like scherzo, when he is preparing for one concert..
