Re: GG: Wrong Notes?



    For instance, his Tempest sonata is *wonderful,* and so is his

Ah, the Tempest sonata.  Besides the official recording, there are two
other renditions on the videos.  One is taped live, and is interesting
from that standpoint.  The other is from a TV show and I think it is
way better than the `real' release.  So much more energy.  I listen to
it almost every time I drive somewhere long :-).

There's also a great (IMHO) performance on the videos of GG + Rose doing
the Beethoven piano/cello sonata #2.  I put that on the same tape, it
fits perfectly in 45min :-).  I've only heard one other recording,
Barenboim/du Pre, which I found relatively staid.
