She’s one of the greats. Thank you for this rare archive. Wasn’t it difficult for her to get out of the USSR?

Estoy de acuerdo. Pasé tiempo con ella en 1997. Era tan encantadora y contaba historias divertidas. Y jugó Chopin con puro amor. Gracias por tu comentario.

I just cannot thank you enough for sharing this very precious video with us. Ms Bella Davidovich is one of the very few pianists who can truly make the piano sing -- her tone is just incredibly powerful yet so rich and musical, like drops of pearls, that I never get tired of listening. Her playing does not need to rely on excessive emotion. She makes the piano sound like what an instrument should sound like. Unfortunately, her admirable technique of tonal production is a lost art. Do you have more of her interviews or performance that you can share with us?

Thanks for your note. This is the only video I have of Bella Davidovich. I've been a fan ever since I went to her Carnegie Hall debut in 1979. I had a few delightful conversations with her in 1997 when she came to Ottawa to perform Chopin's Piano Concerto No. 2 (replacing Emanuel Ax at the last minute). She's a wonderful, classy lady and a colossal pianist.

@@caramelorb I only discovered this amazing pianist about 2 years ago through a CD. Since then I tried to lay hands on all her CDs. She is one of those who has truly mastered the instrument. I seldom hear such sound from the instrument even though there are thousands of very musical artists who can play very well. During the interview by her son, she mentioned that one of the professors in the Chopin Piano Competition in Poland which she later won asked her, " Do all the Soviet pianists make the piano sound like this?" O, how I wish I knew her playing years ago when I was studying. Do you recall the debut recital, what was it like?

The last piece sounds like Schumann? Can you tell me what piece it is?
