Gigantic! 4 1

These are not pictures, this is a huge mural with a gloomy dark corners, and huge flat areas of iridescent colors. This interpretation is not really giant. Pogorelich again shows the genius of his interpretations. Thanks be to make us DDG this mural as detailed by miking not suffering criticism. The piano is in the room and it resonates with a telluric power. Ah the great gates of Kiev! They open in the living room with a realism so pushed that one begins to be afraid!

I know of no more convincing record, True, Pogorelich takes broad tempos but what else? Byldo is played correctly (the crescendo should be barely audible) and the lighter parts are of great poetry, they sound like little bells. Instead of dismiss such is played in a standard time, while the catacombs are played twice as slow tempi ... This variety is ideal.

For me the best version, absolutely, but I just heard the CD Marlyn Frascone .... seems this superb approach work in a new and exciting angle (it does not make you his study in Moscow!) I must deepen on that side.
