Yes, she probably owns concerto. Unfortunately, it should be >the other way around. The musician is the servant, not the music. I don't >think I would enjoy any performance of the Liszt 1 shorter than 18 min or >so. It would be like witnessing a slaughter..... Well i really enjoy you opinion on it.Of course it depends on the aproach people has toward music. I really like Martha Argerich,but it doesn't mean i have to agree with a Hyper -Techcnical speed performance. And if what i want to listen is music, i am against too fast performances,because the ears lost a lot of important things.Great pianism doesn't means great speed. Regards. Gerardo:.
