Lugansky is the best pianist on Earth.

Saw him live 2 months ago for 45 euros. That was an unbelievable amount of music for the money. He will be one of the greatest in a few decades, i'm sure of that. All the boxes were ticked!

There is another Lugansky podcast on YouTube discussing the 3rd concerto. Tremendous stuff for sure.

Some weeks agoI could not get past the slow movement. It occurred to me so I dubbed it “The muted-pastel colors movement.” Not to mention the dozen hot air balloons ascending. PWG

I hope someday he might come to Hartford and play with The Hartford Symphony -- or perhaps a recital at The Bushnell.

[marwanannouri]

1:28 sounds really familiar, does it appear in one of his later concertos?
