da zong by zong analyziz:
Mei-Ting SUN (Shanghai, China 1981)
Etude in C op.10/1 [02:01]
Technically well-drilled. Mannered rallentandos. No.
Masanori SUGANO (Aichi, Japan 1977)
Waltz in c sharp op.64/2 [03:20]
Interpretative quirks of a rather conventional and predictable kind. No.
Wen-Yu SHEN (Chongqing, China 1986)
Etude in a op.25/11 [03:31]
Straight-down-the-line, even four-square, lack of legato when theme moves to RH suggests not much more than technique at work here. No.
Takaya SANO (Tokyo, Japan 1980)
Waltz in A flat op.42 [03:47]
Spirited enough but hardly goes beyond finger dexterity. No.
Howard NA (Taiwan 1985)
Waltz in A flat op.42 [03:41]
Elegance and verve. A tendency to plunge into new sections without preparing the listener’s ear results in a clipped impression. No.
Dmitri LEVKOVICH (Cherkassy, Ukraine 1979)
Tarantella in A flat [03:02]
An infectious display. Yes.
Dong Hyek LIM (Seoul, South Korea 1984)
Waltz in F op.34/3 [02:09]
Energetic, almost violent. Did I hear him kicking the pedal in places? No. A 3rd prize-winner.
n da obligatory direct 10/2 comparizon:
Yuma OSAKI (Ibaraki, Japan 1981)
Etude in a op.10/2 [01:22]
Not faultlessly even nor with any compensating poetry. Difficult to judge by just this. No.
Maxence PILCHEN (Brussels, Belgium 1978)
Etude in a op.10/2 [01:22]
Exactly the same comments as for Osaki’s performance (Pilchen a tad heavier). Again, hard to say from just this. No.
Ingolf WUNDER (Klagenfurt, Austria 1985)
Etude in a op.10/2 [01:18]
Has the requisite ability to make music, even poetry, out of an apparently barren piece. Can’t really judge on just this but give him the benefit of the doubt: Yes.
ahahahaha diz inzite ![]()
n randomly da TRUCOMME:
Feodor AMIROV (Dimitrovgrod, Russia 1981)
Etude in b op.25/10 [03:53]
Heavy-fire outer sections, mannered middle section, obsession with inner voices might tickle some tastes. Better in Scriabin? No.
