Absolutely beautiful playing by Kristian Bezuidenhout! This is the essential Mozart at its best.

[nancylee]

It's so great to hear you again! Such beautiful colors you are pulling out of that instrument! You sound wonderful as always 💐💐💐

[bong]

The sound is absolutely clear and crystalline. I can hear every note. 😂😂😂

[peterszigeti]

This instrument absolute adequat to Mozart's music. Wonderful!

[jovankabanjac]

Sehr originell, wunderschön, niemand spielt auf diese Art. Kann mir vorstellen, dass K. Bezuidenhouts Interpretation eine Quelle der Inspiration für andere Pianisten wird.

[ExtraCrispyBits]

A pianist who still takes into account the pulse of the bar! Wonderful. So much is lost in today's renditions where there are no strong or weak beats outside of shaping the melody. The composers of the time wrote heavily about the importance of strong/weak beats.

[staffanolofsson]

Maybe it is imagination. but I think this Mozart sounds especially good on this Forte Piano!

[mikaelmuratoglu]

Glenn Gould would have loved this instrument. Imagine him playing Bach on this Piano Forte

[scheepalicious]

Ahh, the master of the micro-expression.

[papagen]

If I can play this piece from memory this guy should too.

[danielpincus]

Does he use Music when he plays pieces from the standard repertoire? This piece is not exactly in the standard repertoire.

[petersimon]

The interpretation is very good. However, playing from notes has strange effects. He is often broadcast on the Dutch state music TV channel, always playing with the notes and an otherwise very good guitarist friend of mine, otherwise quite ignorant of music outside his own genre, has naively come to the conclusion that pianists often perform with the notes in front of him. Well, with chamber music, it is true but he simply generalised from some minor exposition to this guy. I see no reason why Mr Bezuidenhout regularly does this. Memory issues? It is quite disturbing, though it doesn't disturb his performance. Does anyone have a clue?

Repent and trust in Jesus. Hes the only way. We deserve Hell because weve sinned. Lied, lusted stolen, etc. But God sent his son to die on the cross and rise out of the grave. We can receive forgiveness from Jesus. Repent and put your trust in him.
