Da Comme’s legendary Dre informercial: 8)

"Marc-andre Hamelin has the best piano technique ever. This is an opinion based on my own listening, and knowledge gained from other people who have heard most pianists who have ever been recorded. What he does with this gift isnt always to alot of peoples taste, but its clear in my mind he’s the best technician there is.

no wrong notes?
hamelin is always note perfect and never sounds like he might hit a wrong one

fastest fingers in the west?
I have heard other pianists play close to his speed, but never with the same control and accuracy

tonal control?
hamelin has the most amazing control over tone i have ever heard, his playing is so even and smooth, he can do pretty much anything he wants.

stamina?
listen to his recording of alkans concerto for solo piano, 50 minutes worth of insane technical demands played perfectly and with power in reserve, or listen to his busoni piano concerto, over 70 mins, but with orchestra.

all of the above?
yes indeed absolutely, totally.

listen to his godowsky/chopin etudes and read the score along with it…"
