My third favourite piano concerto and one of Chopin’s best compositions ever written. Occuring in 1938, with the New York Philharmonic Orchestra, and Sir John Barbirolli as the conductor, Hofmann unleashes and unbelieavably awe inspiring performance. In 33 minutes, 10 minutes faster than most recordings, he brings out all the colour that chopin intended. Amazing voicing especially in the second movement, effortless virtuostic pasages, and a sublime light touch. Moreover, the pedaling is perfect in my opinion; many pianists today use too much.
my second favourite is Zimmerman, then Bruce Liu.

Thank you for everyone supporting me by subscribing, commenting, or liking. This is my first score video of a piano concerto and I can say it is a great success! Will do the 2nd concerto next by Hofmann and later Rach 2 by Weissenberg.
