    Exactly the same performance. I posted the link to
    the annotated/commented video assuming that
    some of the readership may not be familiar with
    the score and could benefit from the commentary.

    ROTFL! If that meets one's definition of "musical"
    one needs fresh concrete poured into their ears.
    It would allow more sound to pass through than
    whatever rocks they currently have for eardrums.

    What you linked to was a talking head, not a
    musical performance.

    I can hear the notes with Arrau, with the other
    you need a talking head to tell you what you
    should be listening to.

    I found the discussion more interesting than
    the performance. Obviously other people may
    think differently.

    Then the problem is with your ears, not with the
    performance. I can hear all the notes perfectly
    in even faster readings, e.g. John Ogdon or
    La Bunia:

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lhMAFS-Lvzw

    Obviously in order to hear all the notes one must
    know all the notes -- do you? À chacun ses oreilles.

    There is a comparison video with Treif, KB and YC:

    And for the brave of heart and hard of hearing there
    is of cours La Wang:

    In fairness, she was only 14 at the time.

    Mélodie Zhao managed a bit better at the same age:
