Very good work, maul! Ok you might play the ppp in the second mvt a bit softer. And the climax before the recapitulation in the first mvt. is not as intense as I would like to hear it. People need to tremble in their seats if they hear that. Btw how can you play that awkward octave passage sooooo fast? How long did you practise for that? It really sounds like Horowitz.  8) ;D

But the marcatos are all wrong!
Don't you agree. The score sais; Jouez comme la Dieu! Wich means play like God. Do you think that God himself(or is it herself?) would like slo*w playing with out subtelty and wrong Marcatos? For the love of God I beg you not to differ!

To celebrate the end of the year, the star pianist performs Johannes Brahms’s monumental Piano Concerto No. 2 with the Philharmoniker and Kirill Petrenko on December 31.
