Thank you for uploading! I was blown away when I heard Khatia play this on her first encore at the Barbican on Saturday, and ever since then I have been endeavouring to discover the title of the composition as it was not one I was familiar with. The recital was sublime throughout, and this piece was one of the stand out moments for me. She is an absolute force of nature!
Divine Artistic Beauty Personified. I was fortunate enough to be in attendance - a World Class Concert Pianist that can bring the House down & make the tears fall. Beyond Human ability. Khatia performed this extremely difficult movement with grace, accuracy, lightning speed, tonal definition & made it appear Effortless!!! Prokofiev never indicated a Tempo marking and in comparison this must equal Martha Argerich's Carnegie Hall encore performance, or indeed - possibly surpasses it. The Pianist skill set required to do this can only be truly understood if you attempt this yourself. This is simply - SUPERSONIC and of the highest pianistic achievement. The beauty of this movement is it is open to ones own musical Judgement and Khatia knocked this one out into ' The Stratosphere'! Phenomenal !!! Thks for uploading & my congratulations to 'the Artist' for all. Elevating the ' Life of Others' - Eddie de Cazalet - Pianist / Free Style Improvisor / impressionistic expressionism / ' PURPLE FLOYD / WET GRAFFITTI -
I too was at the Barbican last night and was privileged to hear this brilliant artist. Having heard her play this encore on RUclips I was thrilled to witness her playing it last night. So exciting. I also loved the Bach prelude and fugue she played which features on her Liszt cd. Stunning.

lack of expression and accuracy

Just incredible. Khatia is a wonder.🌹
Like a robot...listen Horowitz, and listen the difference
Her tempo is fast to the point of the piece not even being enjoyable.
