[shawnmand]

Undoubtedly, the most fearless pianist since Gilels and Richter. Pogorelich, Volodos, and Viardo are up there too.

[nnn-vx]

I'm a beginner novice, I literally heard him ONCE and stopped what I was doing and have been hooked since. Goes to show what true art personified can be.

[persol]

they werent called "the war sonatas" for nothing, lol (sonata no.6, 7 & 8)

[라쏠-yj]

My favorite pianist❤ His Rachmaninoff concerto 2 is wonderful🔥🔥🔥

[katrinat.]

Wow, wow, wow! I got chills! I love when a classical musician or conductor absolutely becomes one with the music!!!

[queene]

God and Sokolov at the piano, best combination!!!

[stefanoparissemusic]

Flawlessl, his rendition of Precipitato hits the heights of pianism. He is by far among the greatests pianists ever.

[scottfoster]

WTF! Must take only about a month for him to wear out a piano.

[RobertSweet-nwtm]

He pushes all the correct keys and holds each note for the correct length of time

[deborasanchezmoreno]

Tuve la suerte de escuchar a Grigory Sokolv en vivo, en La Chaux de Fonds, Suiza. En el año 2004 IMPRESIONANTE escucharlo. Mi eterna admiración.

[vincenthartzenberg]

I simply love Grigory and I don't know what the heck is going on here!

[greghudon]

He doesn't perform in the states. He's one of the great pianists. He won the senior division title of the Tchaikovsky at 16
Think about that.

Break a string or break a finger???
Who will

Рояль выстоял, а у меня внутри ; пара струн, порвались.
💯

[SimonGeraedts]

Technically impressive, but Prokofiev really isn't my music. 😅

[philipchief]

under what mood did the composer wrote this piece?

[Roberta-lt]

Пьеса называется Наваждение. Прокофьев и

[vzetanet]

Versione molto ipnotica ed energica, preferisco l'interpretazione piu svelta e precisissima di Pollini.

[truthpopup]

This video is sped up. Sokolov's performance is actually precise and well controlled. I have seen this composition butchered by pianists who approach it as an athletic event.
