Maybe I should start wearing high heels.

i think I'll pass. She's just another young pianist with a new CD to me. I've heard her playing and it's not as good as some people here at my school, even. And with Pierre-Laurent Aimard's Ligeti etudes set, one doesn't need another one. Nevermind how popular the other pieces are (and the number of good recordings of each).

That could make pedalling more difficult, especially if you are adept in the use of the sostenuto pedal.
