I really like Mark Viner's. He's quite young and played a recital in our hall a while back. Unfortunately our piano had some tingy notes, but it was an amazing rendition.

Professionaly, I haven't heard that many.

Horowitz, even though I heard he once began on the wrong notes.

I also like Ingulf Wunder's, it was so breathtaking.

Gilels 1965 Moscow Live performance, by far the best. Then I would choose Ingolf Wunder, Evgeny Kissin and Krystian Zimerman

Best
