I have my best three piano players of all time:
SVIATISLAV RICHTER. The way he plays second movement of piano concerto f-sharp minor no.1 from Rachmaninov always make me cry.
VLADIMIR HOROWITZ. Under his hands Chopin sounds like music from paradise! Russian temper.
OSCAR PETERSON. The master of improvisation and melody!!!
Apart from other jazz piano players, his piano doesn't sound like percussion.

Hello everybody,

Among the young and living, Alexandre Taraud deserves to be discovered. His CDs playing Rameau, Couperin and the last featuring Satie are just wonderfull!

Happy listening
Etienne
