I notice dat we talk a LOT mo about certain onez den non-pianiztz do
Non-pianiztz - who ztill enjoy liztening to 88 muzik but maybe not az obzezzively az uz - zeem to gravitate lezz to ‘tech legendz’ and mo to da ‘big namez’
I mean u wud certainly call da n da pianiztz pianiztz
But da iz da bezt example ov da abzolute oppizte - pianiztz znobbizhly call him zheeyat and da popular audience zee nothing wrong with him n enjoy hiz playing
Godowzky - definitely wuz da peniztz penizt ov hiz era
Neva captured a big public da way othaz did, but da famouz peniztz ov hiz era all worzhipped him
Are our earz az ‘pianiztz’ zimply bettah n mo refined, or are dere different artizdick qualitiez dat capture da imagination ov a non-muzician audience vz. a muzician audience? Or iz it zimply charizma and nothing to do wiz da playing itzelf
To the original question. I would assume that pianist focus more on the technical aspect than on the actual music making, which should mean that generally pianists’ pianists are worse for the average audience than other pianists. Just ask a violinist to comment on another violinist: So much of what they focus on is stuff you never would have cared about at all
I remember a @Ashley_Tervort post on Dasdc which had a random adult vid where MILFS discuss how big da pianist’s dick is and if hand size correlated with dick size, while he CGishly stumbles through some grade 1 88 level sheeyat on a baby grand in deir living room,
Den da milfs grab him n start sucking hiz dingaling.
I think da title of dat wonderful film was “The Pianist’s Penis”
n da 
pianiztz pianiztz
iz da bezt example ov da abzolute oppizte - pianiztz znobbizhly call him zheeyat and da popular audience zee nothing wrong with him n enjoy hiz playing
