EJ,

I have Julia Fischer's recording which I enjoy a lot aside from the silly pictures of hers in the CD booklet. Am I correct to say that Hahn's playing is much lighter and faster?

By the way, the Brahms lyrical pieces played by Pogorelich on DG are delightful.

Did you ever listen to Valentina Lisitsa's piano?


Haim,

Glad you enjoy the Pogorelich. All of his CDs are worth hearing, and most notably his Chopin.

Sorry to say I haven't heard either Ms. Lisitsa or Fischer, yet, but planning to change that shortly.

EJ,

I have already ordered another disc of Pogorelich, his Scarlatti sonatas. I am also interested in his Haydn album. Which Chopin of his would you recommend?

Here you have a selection of Listisa short pieces:
