Happy 76th Bday to Garrick Ohlsson

Colossal pianist with a girthy sound to match.

Produced a complete Chopin works for piano set that is awesome all the way through.

The rest of his recorded output isn’t too shabby, either.

Yes, his Funerailles sounded this epic and imposing when I heard him live at Carniggah.
