Brian Ganz - an excellent Chopin performer

on: May 08, 2022, 02:19:52 AM

Came across his channel, which has only 281 subs, while looking for video recordings of the Allegro de Concert. He also performs the Polonaise-Fantaisie, 4th Scherzo, and a few shorter pieces, and has some promo material on there. IMHO Mr. Ganz deserves more listeners as his performances of Chopin are excellent and he posesses an infectious sort of enthousiasm which is rare even amongst concert musicians.

I hope you'll enjoy it!

Never heard of the guy, but his recordings were quite enjoyable to listen to. I struggle a bit with performers who move about a lot so I had to keep the video tabbed down, but the musical results are very good
