It’s sad. This piece is a right of passage for people who a) want to be taken seriously as interpreters of russian piano music b) want to prove they have a big technique. This pianist obviously thought she could prove her colleagues, teachers etc. wrong by playing a piece that she just couldn’t handle. Hell, 90% of the pianists who can handle it technically should still not play the piece. Technique is necessary but insufficient.
fuck me that’s a horrible situation.
I’ve been working on this movement for a while now-it’s hard, what can I say.
Still this could happen to anyone (bad day, shitty concentration, etc)-in this case it’s obviously not nearly secure enough for the stage, either that or she just sucks. Probably both.
Who is this person and why is she playing it with orchestra when she’s not ready?
Thracozaag why do you say that? Have you had a bad experience with either concerto?
