Dmitri Demiashkin - video from May 2002 competition First Prize Winner (from Sweden) May 17, 2002 International Russian Music Competition in San Jose, California I heard this very musical young pianist last week here and imagine many will enjoy some of the following audience video (not by me) of competition performances, placed on the net with his authorization. The video recordings of the live performances are: 1. Ravel: Scarbo (recorded at Jaen Piano Competition, Spain April 2001) 2. Tchaikovsky-Pletnev: Nutcracker Suite (recorded at San Jose, California, May 2002) HIGH Resolution (for DSL/Cablemodem/Lans - any fast access) http://www.kvod.com/jby/demiashkin_scarbo.rm http://www.kvod.com/jby/demiashkin_tchaik_nutcr_hires.wmv http://www.kvod.com/jby/demiashkin_tchaik_march_hires.wmv http://www.kvod.com/jby/demiashkin_tchaik_sugplum_hires.wmv LOW resolution (for phone modems at 28k - 56k) http://www.kvod.com/jby/demiashkin_scarbo_lowres.rm http://www.kvod.com/jby/demiashkin_ravel_scarbo.asf http://www.kvod.com/jby/demiashkin_tchaik_nutcr_lores.wmv http://www.kvod.com/jby/demiashkin_tchaik_sugplum_lores.wmv http://www.kvod.com/jby/demiashkin_tchaik_march_lores.wmv The Low-Res versions, for some reason, don't sync well on my cablemodem, while the High-Res ones do. For those who can access these, I'll be interested in feedback. Thanks. - Andrys
