This is some of the most extraordinary Brahms playing I have ever heard. The acoustics, the piano, and the recording quality are all top notch, but ultimately it's the magic of the sound he creates.
This is, in my view, the best performance of op117 since Gould. While Gould polished out the shinier aspects (and called it the sexiest piece he has ever played), Vogt captures the melancholy and 'Innigkeit' (untranslatable term) with unprecedented concentration and intensity. He sadly died yesterday, a great loss to music and this here is his epitaph.
I must admit, I prefer this tempo the most. I think this piece should never lose sight of the waltz from which I believe it is derived, so if it’s played too slowly it becomes mired and portentous - even sentimental.

d'accord pour la comparaison avec Gould. C'est là une magnifique interprétation très profonde et mélancolique
Gould was awful.
Wonderful recording! RIP Lars.

Profoundly beautiful playing- thank you

You should hear his Janacek, “In The Mist.” His playing goes beyond struggle or doubt; bringing the music. As it is.
Wundervoll :)
Es ist eine schöne Aufführung, die die süße innere Liebe mit Leidenschaft ausdrückt!
Perfect tempo

No. 2 at 4:30, No. 3 at 9:02,
Sad. His professional life, as an interpreter, was really just beginning.
9:01 No.3
The volume is too low. Can barely hear it.
