Honestly, why do people care so much about who's technique is the fastest. It's sort of counter productive  because that is not what music is about.

That's almost not even funny... I so hope that guy dies a painful, painful death for slandering the good reputation of the other pianists who he claims cheated, because they earned out reputation through their music - Richard Kastle still has to prove he can play more than 3 frickin' pieces that aren't his own monstrous, inaudible creations.

Me. It's true I can't play remarkably _fast_ octaves but they sound beautiful!
