This is absolutely fantastic! (Wish I could see the full interview/episode.) I've loved Ivo P since I was a teenager, catching many of his performances at Carnegie Hall in the 1980s , including (twice!) Gaspard de la Nuit -- evenings of music I will never forget. I recall one occasion when he began playing a slow movement, was annoyed by someone's coughing fit, and he stopped, looked at the audience calmly, and made a gesture of covering one's mouth to stifle the coughing. Many of his recordings are etched into my brain (the Bach English Suites, the Ravel/Prokofiev album, Schumann's Symphonic Etudes, and many others). How lovely to hear him speak here; his sensibility/philosophy goes perfectly with his utmost craft and artistry.

Young Pogorelich, so good. His recording of Gaspard de la Nuit & Prokofiev #6 are of historical importance. Lucky listeners to have Sound Worlds of Genius Composers revealed, in the manner of Pogorelich.

Such immense talent! Yet such a tragedy that Pogorelich married his piano teacher, 21 years his senior, who completely dominated him. 😭😩

His concept of entertainment is very childish, but that is okay. He is still a mere child here.

I can't agree with you. Instead, I totally agree with Pogorelich: entertainment IS childish, at least in comparison with true Art. Entertainment itself is a MERE industry for childish people. It's the western/American inappropriate (and childish, of course) approach to everything, from a striptease to an artistic performance. The word "performance" itself is so limited to be completely wrong: they call "performer" both the comedian telling a joke in a casino and a true artist devoted to his "spiritual" research. Americans can't understand the difference between Roublev and Warhol, they think both are simply "painters" in the same big entertainment industry... They're NOT! There is NOTHING in common between an entertainer-painter and an artist-painter, nothing! Finally, I would not say Pogorelich is a "mere child" (sic) here: on the contrary, in spite of his young age, his perspective on Music and Art is so precise, perfectly developed, completely original, and absolutely self aware.

@@AndreyRubtsovRU It's not free, actually. It's unmonetized time, but this doesn't mean "wasted" time. It's the time I need to express a precise, unambiguous, non-childish thought. It's the time I need to refine my ideas. It's a spiritual investment, my friend.

@@AndreyRubtsovRU Your reaction to the well put response is - ironically - very childish .. but that is okay. You are still a mere young man. May I ask for a few free minutes of your precious time to enlighten me what your - much more mature - concept of entertainment is then? Maybe use your own free time to reflect upon the concept of arrogance or communication in general.
