Mozart concerto 20 in d-minor, Allegro (1of2) Gulda

I'm mostly into rock (of many kinds), but I have some classical favorites, this is one of them. (Same concert given in two parts on youtube due to length.)
Damn, what a fantastic minds those composers had, to compose works of such beauty and complexity.

I don't know who this conductor is, but the man is hilarious and the performance is excellent!

Yeah it's amazing what the ancient composers created at the time, some of their music is extremely beautiful. One of my personal faves are Vivaldi and Lully.

I played this video 5 times over the last few days - and then searched for it in my own CD files.

That amazing piano caught my attention every single time.

Fantastic performance.

Thanks, I had not *really* watched the video, I'd only found it for the music, but I'll look for the piano now.

There's nothing special about that piano.

That pianist is really annoying. What a pretentious twat.
