One thing where I guess I'm different from many other listeners is that I don't always require that the performances I listen to be among the top 20 of all time (even if we could get to a consensus as to which performances those might be!). ;-)
Actually, I haven't kept up with Lise's latest releases, but she might be another pianist (like Hélène "Wolf Lady" Grimaud) whose first recording might be her high-water mark as a musical artist.
