You actually put Krall in the same category as Petrucciani ? !
Don't know how to respond.
Great classical pianists
Alexandra Dovgan is the pianist of her generation.
In the last century there was Richter. Today Trifonov. Now a new phenom. What is it in the Russian water that produces such giants of the keyboard?
We enjoy all great pianists. Rubinstein, Pollini, Argerich, Backhaus, Kempf, Michelangeli, Schnabel, Pogorelic, Gilels. Please add your favorite to this embarrassment of pianistic riches. But there is primus inter pares.
My prefered version of the Bach well tempered klavier is first Feltsman and second Schiff ...I enjoy the two but with a preference here ... The Russian is more balanced between perfection and expression ...😊 So impressive the self controlled german could be , and he is ... This Schiff interpretation is the top of his career ...

Thanks for the correction ... 😊 But you certainly know more about Schiff playing than about Schiff origin ... Sir András Schiff (Hungarian: [ˈɒndraːʃ ˈʃiff]; born 21 December 1953) is a Hungarian-born British classical pianist Wikipedia... And here is the source of my confusion : Schiff, known for his video broadcast masterclasses, is currently on the faculty of the Barenboim–Said Akademie in Berlin, Germany, serving as distinguished visiting professor of piano.[17] Wikipedia
