In the last ten years or so, Pollini has been giving some of the best performances of his lifetime and this is one of them. A conception so big that a mortal can't even approach in imagination.

that bit from around 2.30 contains such artistry and feeling, only Pollini could do this so well

I totally disagree with the dissenters here, this is a note-perfect masterly performance, brimming with deep emotions and a lifetime of study.

I feel like I've found a hidden gem. That's a beautiful piece.

Beautiful music 🎹 Thanks 🎹

Grazie Maestro. Mi rimane la sua immensità e la sua discografia per rivivere le mille emozioni che le sue interpretazioni mi hanno dato. Buon viaggio e arrivederci tra non molto, lassù.

Muy bien. Como siempre maestro Pollini, muy sentida interpretación. Solía escucharla junto a mi hija cuando ella era bebé.

❤

@Jun Kumazawa Maestro Maurizio Pollini play wonderful! 💐 In the video description you wrote "Enjoy listening to the recordings from the following link". This link didn't exist unfortunatelly.

Unfortunately, overwork of his fingers for long time damaged them. Heberden nodes explain the actual situation. I deeply appreciate his past incredibly beautiful performances.
