It's all about the music, dude! Sit down, relax and listen to some tunes.

Cho's Chopin: most unobtrusive and delicate trills, but slight hesitations bug me

On sale at HD for $13.95, includes Ballades. Great reviews; couldn't find any dissenting ones.

Youtube is set up to start right before my favorite stretch in all of Chopin. Cho's playing is pure, gorgeous and for the most part no affectations...it's just those slight hesitations before moving on. To be fair, pianists from Sokolov Pollini to Argerich can't seem to leave the simple melody alone either. Even Rubinstein plays with it a bit. Maybe it's me.

Youtube also offers Cho's PC 1 from the Warsaw competition. The pacing at the same moment is nigh-on perfect. Too bad this one's not available.
