I don't care what some people say, Pogorelich always brings something new on everything he plays. There's a a breath in his his approach that at times reminds me of Horowitz - he probably wouldn't like this ;-)
Thank you for all these wonderful videos with excellent non-edited views. When I sit and listen at a real concert I don't see constantly changing scenery, the music is what is changing like here.
I truly believe that Pogorelich took what Rachmaninoff wrote and blew it way out of proportions. There isn't any subtlety with the various weird accents that aren't accounted for in the score. I think it really disrupts the beautiful phrasing that was intended and plus the dynamic is at a constant fortississimo.
I totally agree. I think he was sedated or under medication. No emotions, no change of dynamics, no thing. Five minutes later, his Sibelius is better though
There is a highly recommended and interesting 55-minute-long japanese "documentary" titled _"Ivo Pogorelich in Nara"_ on this platform where he plays the same Sibelius Waltz which makes it even more obvious than the "bootlegged" version here, that he is playing it at the utmost level of artistic perfection. Given that fact and given the further fact that it is not the technical difficulties, practically nonexistent for IP to this day, of this Rachmaninoff interpretation which make you scorn, it seems reasonable to assume that this is simply his artistic take on it, that he _wanted_ to "explode" on it. One may certainly agree with your different view of the piece, but I think it would be adventurous in face of the Sibelius to assume that it is due to some fundamental overall deterioration on IP's part. Generally it is tempting to assess his play unconsciously influenced by the magnitude of the bad sound quality of such bootlegs. I have repeatedly heard voices from people who were in the audience that whatever to myself sounded awful on YT was in fact magical when sitting only a few yards away from him live. The above mentioned documentary should clarify the import of recording quality when you compare the two versions of the Sibelius Waltz.
ho amato tantissimo Pogorelich e certe sue incisioni rimangono a mio parere insuperate. Questo però non è più lui, è l'ombra di un grande pianista. La Dante nettamente oltre le sue attuali possibilità, ma anche il resto è quasi inaccostabile se paragonato a quello che è stato, una gran tristezza... speriamo si riprenda

Mr. Pogorelich is a superbly beautiful example of terrestrial humankind with pianistic musicianship of celestially everlasting quality.
This is magical...anyone who thinks not...needs their head examined or a hearing test...Brilliant Maestro....BRAVO....!!!!!!!
