Hamelin's studio recording is too brisk. He did not live with the piece
long enough before recording it. His later live performances are much
better, with a more nuanced interpretation. The same can be said for
Grosvenor's.

Ogdon remains the de facto recommendation, it is fine but I think it's
been superseded.

Ohlsson/Dohnanyi is probably my favorite, especially their live version
that has circulated. The Bosendorfer sounds especially great in this
work.

The recent Gerstein recording is overrated.

Thanks for listening and for your thoughtful
comments.

I have no preference, I simply hate the work.

Happy 1941!

Cheers!
