I have been obsessed with Chopin
Chopin was amazed by Bach.... The best way to play it for me is in this light....Moravec is so good with Chopin because he plays it like some kind of Bach, he plays less the melody than the harmony between chord...His color shades sense makes that possible... Others even the best plays romantically the melody only....I begins to understand Chopin with Moravec....
Think about Scriabin that no one can ever whistle.... Why? because the harmony, the colors between chords replace the melody with an abyss.....Chopin is the ancester of Scriabin with Liszt.... Who can play Listz? Almost no one can play Scriabin also.... Music is where an abyss walk.....
For any melody an harpsichord will do all right....For the abyss between chords , and each abyss has his own colors, we need to invent the piano with his pastel shades....
