Just thought I'd say that today on a BBC radio program I heard Trifonov
play the Allegro from the fifth sonata of J.C. Bach, I believe it was,
and that I very much enjoyed the performance. Something about his style
and temperament seemed well-suited to the music.

Even if I haven't been catapulted over to fan status, it's nice to hear
something new and change one's mind a bit.

I wasn't as taken with his Contrapunctus 2 from J.S.'s Art of Fugue, but
we can't have everything.

It's not unusual that pianists I don't like (like Trifonov), excel in Bach or contemporary music. Could it be that these works are less demanding in some way or other?
