    With a BMW you'd expect to get through to the end a lot quicker.......

    But I thought Polina Osetinskaya was your choice in this?

    I like many different readings, and for different reasons.
    Polina Osetinskaya is one of them. Unlike Marc S. I am
    not searching forever for "the perfect one".

    I am not searching for "the perfect one", I am just searching for a performance that I feel and think does the most justice to (what is behind) a score (as you know, I can't read a score, but I think I do get a sense of it just by listening).

    Unfortunately, most of the performances, I think, don't do justice to the scores... (imo there are and were only a handful truly gifted musicians).

    The more I listen in fact, the less I like.

    Is there a "better" performance of Brahms PC 1 on record than Gelber's Brahms 1 that you posted a little while ago? I think not. Thanks for the post btw. I read that he changed the score a bit (octave trills first movement), but it seems to me that the
    way he plays it, is closer to what the score suggests than the people who play the correct notes (Beethoven: To play a wrong note is insignifcant. To play without passion is inexusable!); playing the correct notes his way, I guess one might need bigger
    hands, and equally strong fingers.

    Right now, the only composers I really like to listen to are Mozart and Bach, and also a little Schoenberg and Webern (thanks NĂ©stor for mentioning Robert Craft's Webern Cycle!), but I think this will fade as well with only Mozart and Bach remaining.

    Also: To bring you closer to hashem ;D : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tDH3vDLDyiM
