Bravo, Elina! A simply stunning performance which I'll have to listen to several more times. Looking forward to exploring the rest of your interpretations :)

Ottima interpretazione di questa sonata che è pure una delle più difficili!

[vadimorlov]

Ритенуто на 11:18 просто волшебное! Спасибо за такое исполнение!

[vadimorlov]

Вау, очень экстраординарное исполнение! Сразу слышно, кто ваш любимый композитор :)

I can't even imagine how someone can play this without the score...Wonderful playing !

[jimmysamson]

Incredibly impressive and clean interpretation.
I would love to be able to play this masterpiece myself one day. It’s my dream piece.

👏👏👏👏👏

A few days passed and I decided to give it a second listen. Def went much deeper into the interpretation this time around. Whenever listening to an interpretation I haven't heard before there's that initial knee jerk reaction to compare and contrast. "What's this?" it says, "I've heard these notes before but not like this." So it might take a couple listens to let that tendency calm down and I can just give space to sink into the new interpretation without any of that stuff in the background.

Anyway, all that to say, I loved it. I'm sure I'll be back 😄

Very cool. I wish I could play this piece someday.

Very beautiful and unique left hand voicing at 2:08-2:14
Sounds like a bouquet of flowers😊

I can tell you're committed to this music and it's well thought out. For me, from the entry of the 1st theme the tempo was a bit slow, but overall good job.

[wheelmanmitch]

Beautiful! How long did you practice before this was recorded? It turned out so good 😎

[lucjanocastro]

Wonderful vídeo, Elina!

But forgive me to say: the man was quite crazy, wasn't he?

[unknownportalmusic]

Another special performance version of another great piece im discovering!
Aside from Scriabin, Liszt, Ravel, and Debussy, are there other composers you are aware of that you may have studied that were also able to stretch the limits of the imagination to these levels?

[scriabinalexander]

Hopefully, sonatas 6 and 7 are on the way.

Have you ever listened to Peter Laul's recording of this? I think you'd find it interesting, though not as clearly set out as yours
