A superb live performance, listen the coda of the concerto (35:24), no any pianists have ever played with such power and strength, those broken octaves at the end was simply fearsome!!!
I've listened to this numerous times and still cannot think of a finer performance of this concerto...a perfect combination of musical taste and fire. And the way she plays that 1st movement cadenza!!
It was a wonderful vehicle for her. Such iron in those hands to get that full bodied articulation. And RFdB and the orchestra matched her fire.
Munich, January 25 or 26, 1990 (played 2 consecutive days)

Yes De Larocha was certainly on fire😃
Great performance and Wow what a speed she brings in de Cadenza! I have to say that Annie Fischers' recording i have is on the same level.
I cannot think that better exists!!!
