Rachmaninov Sonata no. 2

===================================================

I think there’s a fair amount of recycling even here though. I don’t keep track of her, but the repertoire (minus Satie & Silvestrov) looks very familiar.

Could be. The Rachmaninoff she’s played since her teens. The rest seems to follow her new disc. I’d definitely attend this recital if she played it here.

14

If she’s going the patriotic French prog style route…why not just prog the Alkan concerto? :sunglasses:

15

Instead of Satie?

Well… :slight_smile:

16

Playing Satie is for lazy cunts :sunglasses:

Nicolas Horvath played 6 hours of it at the Philharmonie last Saturday night for Nuit Blanche.

But then there are freaks like Richter, who seemed to have 20 programs worth of different material on the go throughout the year with no discernible drop in quality. There are some years in Richter’s career where I’d estimate he performed 40-60 hours worth of music. I’ve never actually counted, but I’d be surprise if I’m over-estimating.
