Maurizio Pollini 1942-2024， A Tribute

[wh]

In 1960, an 18-year-old Italian pianist, the youngest contestant, won the prestigious International Chopin Piano Competition, held every five years in Warsaw. “That boy,” the revered pianist Arthur Rubinstein, honorary chairman of a 37-member jury, famously announced, “can play the piano better than any of us.”

Live recordings of Pollini playing Chopin in the competition back Rubinstein up.

Rubinstein’s quip has been used in seemingly every tribute to Maurizio Pollini since his death Saturday in Milan at 82.

82岁去世，也算寿终正寝了。
肖邦的音乐真有特色，非常纯粹。

致敬大师！

博里尼的钢琴听得很少，不知道为什么。肖邦的作品里，小夜曲听得最多。很喜欢鲁宾斯坦的，偶尔会听听李云迪的做比较。阿劳的被很多人推崇，我却听得很不耐烦。

阿劳是谁？
领导以前在图书馆借了个肖邦小夜曲的cd，我俩都支支喜欢，刻了下来常常听。非常凄婉……

Pollini的唱片是我的钢琴音乐启蒙老师，现在听很多曲子都会不自觉的和Pollini比较。82岁不算老，白瞪和川教主任何一个当选都会在任内达到这个年龄。

是不算老，现在人的寿命都长。以前活到八十多可以算长寿了。
