For Beethoven and Chopin….give me Gilels. Mozart…Uchida. Bach…Andrew Rangell. Or Gould if only he wouldn’t sing along! Also Kempf for the big Germanic Romantics.
Great classical pianists
Alexandra Dovgan is the pianist of her generation.
In the last century there was Richter. Today Trifonov. Now a new phenom. What is it in the Russian water that produces such giants of the keyboard?
We enjoy all great pianists. Rubinstein, Pollini, Argerich, Backhaus, Kempf, Michelangeli, Schnabel, Pogorelic, Gilels. Please add your favorite to this embarrassment of pianistic riches. But there is primus inter pares.
