. . . that if one is after the thrill of live, unedited performances of these works, the performance that really struck me as being outstanding is the Richter performances of about half of them on a Supraphon CD. He makes more mistakes than Lisitsa does (but not as many as Cortot), but his are the mistakes of a god! (I know Cortot admirers must feel that way about Cortot too.) You probably already have this recording however:
Come to think of it, a couple more of my faves in the Chopin Etude department are in-concert and (presumably) unedited: Egorov in Op. 10 and Sokolov in Op. 25. So maybe Lisitsa has a point! To answer your question though, Lisitsa does have her moments in these works, but I'd prefer the others I mentioned overall. Lisitsa's recording is certainly worth hearing for some of the performances however.
