Idil Biret's God-awful rendition of Chopin's Polonaise Militaire. :lol:

It's so pedantic!

It could be a substitute for water-boarding, you know. On second thought...water-boarding is the lesser of two evils. :lol:

Pletnev and Russian National Orchestra playing Beethoven's 1st and 3rd piano concerti. Interesting interpretation, to say the least!

Alicia de Larrocha playing Granados' Goyescas. Wow!!! This makes the Chopin Etudes look downright simple. The man (Granados) writes sooo many notes!

I was Just listening to Rami Bar-niv's "Smatheh-Rag". And it is by far the Best Rag I have ever Heard. I am Just in awe of the way that he Captures the Beauty and the Feeling of Israel and Jewish Music.

Kapustin's Elegy for cello and piano. Such touching music, but with a jazzy flair.

Hough's recordings of Chopin's ballades and scherzi.

I have to say, his interpretations are amazing...
