The review below is from a London newspaper, in… 1852, for the pianist Marie Pleyel (probably the greatest pianist of her time), and it seems to have been written for this performance of this Chopin's Concerto No 2 by Yuja ! « Her style is full of fire and impetuosity contrasted, when necessary, by the greatest delicacy and refinement [...]. We have heard the majority of the renowned 'virtuosi', [...] but not one of them ever entered into it heart and soul, and (without taking liberties with the text), executed it with such perfection as Marie Pleyel. She plays it [...] with so much ease and nonchalance that her performance but for the symmetrical beauty of the composition itself, would have all the appearance of a masterly improvisation. » mvmt 1: 00:13 mvmt 2: 15:14 mvmt 3: 24:13
