Like Emil Gilels put it: The musician steps aside - and the music appears. Great!

And to think she was like 12 yo back then!
Disgusting.

Those Chopin, Barcarole and Fantaisie!
Just kill me now.

Out of the mouths of babes and children.

In this world full of woe, I woke up stressed and anxious, then listened to her. Now more content.

Voicing was perfect (listen to the tenor from the start), the various rits were perfect.

Why had I not heard of her?

About to investigate further. But can anything surpass Bach?

Maybe - just checked her Franck. 1.02:50.My favourite transition in all of music.

Please please do not enter any competitions. It will destroy you.

OMG - last note of the Franck!

She's ludicrously good. Had the chance to see her in a private recital and she blew my mind. Her Barcarolle is out of this world and she played a ferocious Appasionata. Her mentor is the great Maestro Sokolov. She's studying in Paris from what I hear. Plenty of projects in the work, including a Carnegie debut and a huge recording project I think I'm not allowed to share details on yet.
