Perahia  :P

The masterpiece tell the performer what to do, and not the performer telling the piece what it should be like, or the cocomposer what he ought to have composed.

i second that! love his cd with K467 and K595 piano concertos.
do you know why benches fall apart?  it is because they have lids with little tiny hinges so you can store music inside them.  hint:  buy a bench that does not hinge.  buy it for sturdiness.

I am glad that someone else mentioned perahia. It is sad that I don't see him talked about more around here.

Perahia  :P



I've heard some of his records of the Chopin etudes. Wow, his touch is amazing. He plays 25:1 like noone else.


YET I will go with Idil Biret. I seems you forgot to put here up there but I figured it was just a mistake

Out of those three only, VOLODOS.

Kissin's good occasionally.

Lang Lang's annoying.

Perahia is sublime.

They're all good....

But Lang Lang's amazing. You're all jealous. Volodos i guess would be my second follwed by Evgeny.

I have to confess.... I agree with SteinwayGuy , I satarted the topic because I was curious, regarding my 3 options, I prefer Volodos but he isn´t one of my favourite pianists, I pefer Lipatti, Hotrowitz, Gilels and that kind of pianists.... but the reply that about Lang Lang playing AMAZINGLY BAD was great!!!!!!!!!!!! :D

Lang Lang DOES have talent, you know.

He's just using it in the wrong way.

WOW guys, you all have to admit there all good pianists. I used to idolize Kissin, until i saw his video, The Gift of Music. It really ruined my opinion of him, not as a player, but as a person. Seems nice but........................
you know what im talking about ;)

Probably... You should feel special!  ;D

I certainly prefer Kissin over LL, and I don't even like Kissin. I like Volodos a lot, I wish he recorded more often. None of them is THE MOST AMAZING player, though...

PS. Perahia is way better than all three of them combined. IMO of course.
PS2. Yes, the topic is stupid and it deserves its answers! ;D

SETTLE DOWN EVERYBODY!THERE IS NO NEED TO USE VIOLENCE!!! :-X

It is true that I would like to play like Lang LAng, Kissin and specailly like Volodos, (at least I would like their talent) but it is true that they are extremely competitive, and it is normal that as a public we have a favourite one!!
