haha true i would say after seeing this Berezovsky has a slight edge

plus he proves my argument for how one develops good technique which is:

amazing.  watching this has changed my whole attitude towards berezevsky.  at first i thought he played too loudly - but i love the bass in the first chopin etude.  in this video he is a musician of personality and beautiful russian overtones.  i like his pianissimos in the opus 10 #5.  and the tchaikovsky was one of the best i've heard.  i like the impetus to it.  it's not lazy.  i think russian composers played by russian pianists - the best!

can you translate some of what he is saying?

also, where's part II?

ps i like the tuning on that piano (for tchaikovsky concerto) very very much.  sometimes the tuning can make or break a performance.  i mean, if you're constantly going 'ouch' in the high treble or low bass - but i like this mean tuning!
