You found a strikingly precise way to describe it (I wish I have said it first), "pianist for a sophisticated listener." Some come to this level quickly, some slowly (like me), some never...
A fine version. Strangely, i usually dislike this pianist intensely, but here there is imagination, strong line, and some of the best filigree decoration, (rather over-the-top at the end, but no matter). Only a slightly bumpy trill to the recap mars the excellence. However, i miss the prélude .... i think they go so well together.
Please, who is the pianist? I tried to play this piece. It’s tough. I think it’s pretty. Agree, don’t be too analytic. Does it please your ear? Sounds good to me and the interpretation is valid.
Je dirais plutôt que c'est très Scriabinesque! C'est vrai, il ajoute quelques détails, surtout les cadenzas, mais ceci est un morceau qui exige beaucoup d'imagination; joué litérallement il devient un sous-Chopin! Curieusement, d'habitude AW n'est pas mon artiste préferé du tout. Mais ici je trouve qu'il met très bien en valeur le morceau.
If you look at the score when he's playing it shocking. Scriabin doesn't whote it this way . It's sounds good but it's not scriabin for me. too free. (sorry for my english i'm french and god's know we don't speak very well your language)
WildJag4free I performed the piece at a funeral service in Spring 2011, to honor the life of a man married for over 50 years to a woman who survived him, present there with their six children-I agree Weissenberg was less faithful to what’s on paper here than in the recording he made about a decade before, which is probably on RUclips somewhere... that earlier one is a studio take ranking among the most evocative, haunting piano recordings ever made. Weissenberg himself felt this later filmed version lacked the previous issue’s magic. And to think he spent most of the 1950s designing greeting cards in Paris, because he couldn’t make it financially on what gigs he could find as a performer.......
The ice of his demeanor at the keyboard was matched by the fire that came off the keys. A pianist for a sophisticated listener

who needs two hands?! ;)
sooooooo beautiful......
Magnifique interprétation !
Indeed!
Love the camera work from 4:16 classic...
Thank you very much for posting. It's beautifully played!
Stupenda.Una fra le piu' belle esecuzioni.
Beautiful... Skip all the overanalytical comments, close your eyes, and enjoy.
De toute beauté !
magnifique !
目を瞑って聴いていると、普通に2本の手で演奏しているかのようです。
訓練すると人間の手はこんな事出来るんだ!と思い知らされます。
ワイセンベルクさんだからかもしれないけど。
本当に美しいです。
Weissenberg máster ❤
❤️💕💕
ワイセンベルクの滑らかな指の動き。
そのしなやかな指から奏でる美しい音色。
そして、身体をあまり動かさず、手も大袈裟に上げたりしない。
表情も変えない。
でも、美しい音楽が流れる。
ワイセンベルクさんのすべてが好きです!
誰が何と言おうと私はワイセンベルクの運指法、演奏スタイルが好きだ。
まったく同感です!
Una pena que no circule por aquí la versión de Joaquín Achúcarro

I also like him very much only in this interpretation! This is the best interpretation I know of this piece!

Can you explain? I certainly heard the notes Scriabin wrote.
Une très belle version, moins romantique que celle de Rubinstein, peut-être plus proche de Scriabine pour ma part.

I find this without any sensitivity and unmoving.well I ve never liked this pianist .
chad414 Probably you are the only thumb down. I disagree!
chad414
...sure, you can do it better. By the way: who are you?? Please, let us know your version!!
He doesn't like you, either.
I also don't like him, but this interpretation is top!
