    Nope. It is known, though perhaps
    not known enough, the famous
    Weisseberg Petroushka movie
    was split filmed. See this:

    I'd say from the sections in the
    movie i posted the best leaps
    are by Matsuev, Toradze and
    Sokolov.

    Stride pianists used to play leaps all the time - it's what they did! Some amazing stuff here - plus it all swung like the clappers.....

    Thanks! Great piano playing. Donald Lambert (never heard of him before) is surprisingly good - even on this awful piano.

    Unfair comparisons. Of course stride
    pianists could out leap everybody else.
    The original question was only about
    Petroushka. No other genres.

    I heard him live however, and he

    First saw this over 50 years ago. Musically and visually fresh as ever.

    Here's Stephanie Trick playing Lambert's stride improvisation
    on the Pilgrim's March from Tannhäuser on a suitably out of
    tune piano: https://youtu.be/hnMbq0jyVNs

    Lambert was quite well known in his time. Unfortunately he
    was seen (or maybe painted himself) as a competitor to
    Art Tatum: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cutting_contest.
