wow! incredible piano videos on youtube!

I had the pleasure of seeing the fusion guitarist Shawn Lane 3 times before he passed away.

He could play the hardest parts of the goldbergvariations on his guitar and sing "what the left hand plays on the piano" at the same time

Incredible

I believe it

I uploaded Vladimir Ashkenazy playing Gaspard on Stage6.divx.com.
I've never seen it posted here before, so I thought I would.

Here is Kapustin playing his Toccata, Op. 8 with a big-band. Great video of one of his early works. Hopefully it will make it to publication and recording soon.

I believe it

Lane was actually about  to transcribe and record Scriabin´s hardest etude and play it on electric guitar when he passed away.

Don´t know which one he was talking about unfortunately

He was a huge fan of Scriabin.

He was a huge fan of virtuosopiano in general and his favorite pianists were Art Tatum among the jazzplayers and Simon Barere among the classical ones.

He was also capable of playing a lot of Tatum´s trademark runs on piano.

I am looking for a good close-up video of Hamelin playing Alkan´s Concerto op.39, Godowsky´s 2 handed winterwind transcription, and his own triple-etude based on on Chopin.

I am also looking for a video of Libetta playing Godowsky´s 2 handed winterwind transcription


I am also looking for good videorecordings of Scriabin´s  Sonata no 7 and 8 and Ligeti etudes "Desordre" (not Banfelds) and Coloana Infinita

Anyone know where I can get them?

What on earth is this? About ten seconds is all that's needed to identify how excruciatingly bad it is.

Sorry for posting that, my musical sensibilities are offended and I had to get it out of my system. 

And for something completely different (and much, much more entertaining):

I agree, but there are many people on this forum that cannot appreciate how great George Crumb's Makrokosmos I is, unfortunately.

New to youtube and tried to view one of the videos but got this message:

What do I do?

Add the producer to your friend list, perhaps?
