Le pianiste qui m'a fait pénétrer dans le piano de Bartok. Jeune ado. Merci Monsieur Sandor.

The interpretations of Guiomsr Novaes had more life!

Fenomenal, Guiomar. País sem memória...

This is incredible! Can this be found on CD?

Bravo!!! Finally, Schumann Carnaval! I was disappointed with Moseiwitsch. I am studying Carnaval now and can't wait to perform it. (I have recorded Kreisleriana, feel free to listen to it on my channel - it has become a reference for Schumann lovers)

Best performance I've heard yet 🎵

27:00 To 27:43 the theme is short and in passing, but toughes the height of perfection

An overwhelming beautiful and exciting performance!-Dame Myra Hess is (as usual) heartwearming in this concerto-but the big surprise is the peerless accompaniment of Sir Malcolm Sargent-staggering!

When Sandor plays these, you can see why Busoni said, "Now this is something really new." I was at the first performance of Bartoks piano reduction for the Concerto for Orchestra. Sandor played. The auditorium was half empty!!

One of my all time favourites. I got b'ham library to order this in and when I first listened I was captivated. Rediscovered it in my 30s in Derbyshire in winter with which I will now always link it. A forgotten gem, and in my opinion a far superior work to the symphonic variations which is one of the few bax works I don't have much time for. Re Harriet and Arnold, bax also cheated for about 20 years on Harriet with a lady called Mary gleaves. Thanks for uploading this early version of this piece played by its original dedicatee, it has worn well. Still prefer the fingerhut version though!

Que legato MARAVILHOSO e pouco pedal. BRAVOOOO

GENIAL

This is just exquisite.

Needs more mania. Less "I'm a serious concert pianist" and more Schumann

🤘🤘 *Headbangs required on first piece.

Nice

Brilliant.

Sandor ws a very interesting guy. He once apologized to me and a few other students that came to a lecture he gave on Bartok for playing a piece taking 3 seconds to much time.

Excellent Choice, James! Arnold Bax is the great "unsung" hero of British Classical Music and Winter legends is a masterpiece. I first became interested in Bax about 40 years ago (Neville Dilkes's recording of "Dance in the Sunlight", a Classic, was my introduction). Harriet Cohen sounds a bit "fuzzy" but if you want a bright & sparkling rendition I can recommend the Chandos recording with Bryden Thomson and Margaret Fingerhut. Don't hesitate to buy this one, it's a "keeper"!!!

1. With Drums and Pipes - 00:00 2. Barcarolla - 01:52 3. Musettes - 04:54 4. The Night's Music - 08:06 5. The Chase - 13:24

Exquisite!

I don't know why but the first piece with it's energy and bang always makes me think of Bach's Weihnachtsoratorium „Jauchzet, frohlocket, auf, preiset die Tage“

The sonata is known as 'The Cuckoo' in that it references a pattern found in the bird's song. It is a self-portrait of the master in what he called "an unbuttoned mood." But the little G major is rich in its terse concision, with a sorrow laden songful Andante. Backhaus plays it brilliantly here before an audience in Carnegie Hall.

What is the painting??

In my opinion the best Berceuse on RUclips. Simply perfect in every note.

Thank you very much

Fabulous. I considered my fortunate to have met and gotten to know Shura when he gave concerts in NYC and stayed at the Hotel Pierre where I worked for a few years. He was a charming and very unpretentious man.... a delight. I heard him in concerto and recital quite a few times...marvelous!!!!!

I was there!! I've never forgotten the thrill of a Fantastic Tale, almost an adventure, never sure (one hoped to be shura....!), what might happen next, yet all with a musicality and pianistic quality found nowhere else. Shura's "events" were unique and were never repeated identically next time or ever really in the studio where he was mostly uninspired. One didn't want to leave the hall, to face the ordinary world again after living a time-stopped magical universe.... From memory, Wilhelm Kempff was programmed, but had to cancel and Shura leapt up at last moment, something he often did; i heard him replace also Gilels, Perlemuter, Vasary and Ogdon! Thank you for this wonderful moment relived.

Thank you for posting this. Guiomar Novaes was such a creative pianist. She makes this little pieces sound very alive!

I played alt wein when nine years old. Studied piano from teacher who studied under godowsky.

For MUS 651: Bagatelle #2 starts at the 1'02" mark, Batatelle #4 at the 3'05" mark.

A great version with some very playful improvising!

The greast ARTIST WE HAVE EVER IN PORTUGAL TILL NOW! A great teacher and The Greatest supporter of new talents! BRAVO MAESTRO

I had a good bar talk With Bartok I told him I like Kuurt

Excellent! Thank you!

Great and beautiful,TYSM Anika ♫♪♥

Outstanding! Thanks a lot! ...conductor (not concuctor)

Teresa Żylis-Gara is the only queen of polish singing.

This is a captivating performance. Without being extreme, it lays out with simplicity the wonderful components of this composition.

ARRAU insuperable.Philips Recording

A very fine performance from Madam Kraus, with some subtle nuancing and sparkling fingerwork!

Received today the Complete Recordins of Alicia de Larocha for Decca. And one of the first pieces I heard were her two versions of the Carnaval. I love Alicia and her Carnaval, as just about everithing else she plays, is wonderfull. But it does not compare to Novaes' version... Novaes' carnaval is unique and apart from the amzing ease and virtuosity she plays it all, the whole thing is build up with suche imagination that all other versions sound just flat! Nothing is just played here, but part of a build up of colours, of sounds, of effects that it is very difficult to imagine how she could design it all in her mind and make it come out in sound!

Se ve que Arminda amaba el tango para poder interpretarlo tan cabalmente. Me hace recordar las interpretaciones tangueras de Luis Visca, que eran proverbiales. Gracias por subir estos tangos. No puedo parar de escucharlos.

Thank you !

0:52 to 1:00

Die Musik atmet und deshalb spricht sie zu uns, phrasierend und mit sinngebender Artikulation. Und so gleicht der Pianist einem guten Schauspieler, der sich mit o.g. Talent in alles und jedes hineinfühlen kann. Diese Fähigkeit besitzt Benno Moiseiwitsch in hohem Maße. Er spricht so herrlich mit Schumann zu uns. Das können nur wenige so - Fabelhaft! Very good sound quality, thank you!
