Searched the net up and down. Paul Barton's take is my second favourite interpretation to make the repetitions sound fluid. Alon makes this piece shine beyond imagination of the very composer.
I have seen many many performances of this etude. This is the best!!!
This one is terrific. But, for me, Yuja Wang's in San Francisco has an incomparable life and kind of "bounce" to it.
Try Yuja Wang 😊
I got really a fantastic opportunity to listen to this piece live and got smashed by this song. I really like Alon said. Quote: music is for listening.
Bravooo !!!! 👏👏👏
Sehr gut! 👏👏 Vielen Dank!!🥰
Beautiful!!
Unbelievably subtle; shows up the technical deficiencies of so many younger performers
Absolutly the best i have seen!!
Music on another level, superb performance.
genius!❤
Masterpiece!!!
WOWOWOWOWOWOWOW SWOON
That three on two combination makes it sound like there are more notes than are on the page.
Philip Glass is the Greatest Composer of our Time.
I agree but... it's a low bar. Most of the composers of our time have been pretty damn awful.
The first time that I heard a Philip Glass piece that wasn't repetitive arpeggios it wasn't Philip Glass.
This is well played. Far better than most. Slightly bangy in the louder section. I feel the first bass note is too harsh. It's shockingly loud, and startling A little more subtly might be in order. to match what over all is a very smooth performance.
