Never heard this version -

Contemporary pianists tend to bang through this more - faster, louder, less piano and pianissimo, more percussive.

This was a v interesting interpretation. Almost too pretty for me. He does work real differences in his repeats and dynamics, though.

skywing, I guess that is an experiment to see how many downvotes you get. And no, you can`t play that better than he can.

Well done. Must be nice to have hands the size of catchers mitts for piano playing.

i swear, you have to have freakishly large hands to be a great pianist... i saw a statue of Dvorák (i could be mistaken) in Budapest, and the hands had me completely creeped out while i was trying to enjoy a meal.

Isn`t there supposed to be a relationship between hand size and, umm, "member" length? I guess pianists are the basketball players of the music world...
