when I had my thyroid cancer surgery, I asked my surgeon to play the 3rd movement during the operation, in case I die on the table, the last thing I hear would be this piece of music
Es vergonzoso que en mitad del concierto lo interrumpan para poner publicidad, ésto es destrozar el concierto, señores esta música es para para el espíritu y no comercial, publicidad antes o después
Dans cet impromptu c'est Dinu Lipatti qui offre, et pour longtemps, la meilleur version. Bien sûr Evgeny Kissin est un immense pianiste. Dinu Lipatti avait, ce quelque chose en plus qu'aucun pianiste n'a : la justesse pure, jusqu'à la pointe de l'âme au plus près de Dieu.
Version hallucinante et hallucinée de cette Appassionata de Beethoven, oui décidément Maurizio Pollini restera à tout jamais l'un des plus grands pianistes du 20ème siècles
One sad fact is that gay people are terribly ridiculed and looked down upon. This is so wrong and against God's will. Being gay is not a mistake to correct, it is like a gift to be treasured. Did you know that Schubert was gay? Yes he sure was, and incredibly musical and creative. I have friends who are gay, and happen to be very talented in art and music. I promise to God to be supportive of them and their abilities. I encourage them to be proud of who they are.
Now I see where John Williams got his inspiration for the music in Star Wars. I think he's just as much of a genius. Wouldn't that fit perfectly in a Star Wars movie? 💖.
Dear, dear Chopin -- struggled all his adult life with TB, only to be felled by it at age 39. Hélène Grimaud captures the essence of Chopin beautifully.
6/29/1974 recital program Steinway Concert Hall (teacher Yolanda Jacobson) lists my twin brother Stewart playing this. I didn't get to go. Don't know if he played the whole thing.
