Magnus Lindberg is new to me, so pleased to hear this. Your playing is great, but I think it might take a few more listens to take to the piece. Some nice jazzy elements, but not immediately to my taste.

I find myself in precise agreement with j_menz and rachfan. Your playing is superb and always a treat to hear. I really enjoyed your Hammerklavier fugue even though I dislike Beethoven. Unfortunately I cannot understand either the Lindberg or the Ligeti enough for it to move me in any tangible way. I repeat that this in no way detracts from either your musicianship or your pianistic ability.
