This Brendel's recording of this impromptu doesn't make any justice to his playing. Maybe it's due to the mic placement but I can't understand how an outstanding artist like Brendel plays so loud the accompaniment. His recordings on disc are way better with a beautiful singing tone that is a little lost on that video.

Why choosing only one of the three? I love the three renditions, they are played by some of my very favorite pianists! Every of them gives a different but beautiful view of that marvelous work.

(Zimerman is not on my list, tastes are tastes...).
