      You know Traum’s a god when you joke about him normally *speedrunning* songs and that he can learn this piece in 3 hours. There must be a word alot greater than Virtuoso, Traum inspires me to become great.

      If he is a famed pianist (And by famed I mean mainstream like Trifonov, Kissin, etc) his handshape and technique is similar to that of Jan Lisiecki. So that's my guess.

Or the piano/player is not in good condition.. also the speed of the gliss has to be accurate and not too fast or too slow. It must sound smooth. It's hard to do a very soft and smooth gliss, like in ondine

    Ravel is truly one of the most genius composers of all time, the fact that he could even imagine a piece to be played with as many notes, runs, and techniques is incredible. It’s hard to get my head around the idea that he most likely thought of this piece in his head and transferred it to piano and paper. Incredible

      It might be possible for a particle to "repeat" actions that aren't his regular state after being taken action excessively, making pressing itself possible. Or it could just be that the note in the lower octave copied itself, or that the wind blew, or that Traum has an invisible third hand, perhaps god really exists.

    dude, who are you? you've got to be a professional who goes on tour. this is truly a world class performance of this that i'd be more than happy hearing in any concert hall. no amateur pianist can produce this many quality recordings this quickly of this wide and difficult of repertoire. this isn't just another piano youtube channel. would love to see some concerto performances if you can somehow manage that.
