Jun 23, 2008 - Divino debussy !!!!! Divino Michelangeli. Che la terra le sia lieve Maestro. Sono lieto di aver fatto visita alla sua estrema dimora a Pura. Una tomba semplice con la croce con scritto solo il nome. Il Signore cui lei credeva l'avrà certamente accolta assieme agli altri grandi artisti....

Aug 10, 2008 - THAT, my friends, is the look of a friggin serial killer!

Aug 18, 2008 - homerboy, stick to flying. Michelangeli is one of the greatest musicians of the 20th c. and on so many levels, it would be impossible to explain even the most fundamental you. If his physicality disturbs you, look away. Listen!! to the glorious music. Not a modicum of musical sense in your comments. Michelangeli is iconic. By the way, I recorded both books of preludes several years ago and have played them for many years previous to that undertaking. Get in the game. Make an effort.

Aug 24, 2008 - i feel like goldilocks whenever i'm searching for debussy piano vids on youtube. versions of my favorite compositions are either too fast or too hard, or too slow and methodic. michaelangeli's La fille aux cheveux de lin is juuuuuuust right. its played perfectly here. hits the sweet spot

Aug 26, 2008 - Given A.B. Michelangeli's musical talent, I could forgive him if he was a serial killer.

BradSumner Says:

Aug 26, 2008 - Divino Michelangeli here is neither a psycho nor a serial killer - fortunately. The expressions on his face are called 'concentration'. What he is doing may sound easy but it is actually very difficult. Michelangeli is perhaps a pianist's pianist.

Aug 29, 2008 - I remember first hearing this in a school music lesson about 35 years ago, it's a gorgeous piece of music, this man's touch on the piano is amazing

Sep 5, 2008 - really hard to play like he did here. amazing. i did once try to learn this piece, coz I really thought that would be easy... no, it isn't easy, of course.

Sep 24, 2008 - Many thanks for this Michelangeli's video. The Great Maestro. Wonderful. I'd like to invite people who's reading this comment watching Nuccio Trotta performances. I think that's a pianist worth listening in to. Thanks.

Oct 1, 2008 - does he cry at the end?

bassplaya221 Says:

Oct 22, 2008 - i agree, the faces are a sign that he can feel what he plays, only true musicians not only hear the music but feel it. its much like getting hurt, you not only pull your hand away quickly from the source of heat, but you contort your face, expressing feeling, and emotion
