    One of the fastest I've heard.

    The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

      Looks like Malfoy from the Potter series.

        For pieces like this once in a while we find a young new talent that outperforms established concert pianists. But probably not this time.

        Probably just as fast, certainly better accuracy, and more musical in terms of bringing out melodic lines and more clearly shading the different layers in the music.

            @Axtremus said in Tonight's Musical Interlude - some Prokofiev.:

            Have to agree. Yuja's version is more musical.

            So is Argerich's but a bit slower.

              Fuck musicality. This piece is supposed to sound like a machine, so you can just as well play it by a machine and increase the tempo.
