God smiled on me this week (possibly as a result of
my Yom Kippur apology to the members of of this ng
I never insulted) and revealed the previously hidden
identity of the greatest living pianist. His name is
Iosif Purits. His reading of Feux Follets is amazing!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1BYg0OerGGs

You can listen to more of his performances here:

Move over Yuja, HJ Lim, Treif, Lang van Bang,

of the piano!

Enjoy!

He’s often in London concerts but I’ve never bothered to see him because the music he does is . . . how shall I put it . . . not my cup of tea.

Many people are really sick and tired of your misleading, 'humorous' posts.

Many have left RMCR because of you.

The other thing is, you seem to be unaware, but it's really awkward you're posting virtually 100% Russian content and links.

I'm not saying we should boycott the Russians, but your activities border on Russia Uber Alles.

Combined with your distinctly unfunny humour you're really an embarrassing exhibit of tone deaf.

Post some content, Herman. Your wish to become moderator is denied.

Ha Ha! Didn't expect that. Thanks for posting. Truly a virtuoso.

I believe you are just sick and tired of yourself and therefore unable to appreciate other people enjoying themselves.

With each sentence your post just got more and more ridiculous - wtf is going on in your head?

Thanks for this wonderful post, Herman, you are just so fucking funny when you are serious, haha!

No such wish. Crazy Koren is RMCR's de facto moderator, posting more than most others combined, changing the topics on other posters' threads and bullying posters away who think too much.

All with a smiley, of course.

The sound is modulated somehow, and that must
come from some form of finger and/or hand and/or
body action. Obviously not the same kind of "touch"
as when sitting in front of the piano, but I doubt an
accordion would be objectively "easier" to play than
a piano.

Herman is always serious. As serious as a
wedge of holey aged Gouda. His mission
in life appears to be to convert everyone
to become as serious as he is so we can
all censor ourselves to his "standards".

There are no quotas here. Nothing and no
one prevents you or anyone else from
posting 10x, 100x or 1000x than I do.

Your "cup of tea" appears to be rather like
stale London rainwater. Do you cultivate
your own puddles?

Here’s my fave. This is the first piece of 20th century music I fell in love with (as played on the organ)

What makes me a "de facto moderator"?
I never prevented anyone from posting
whatever they liked. You probably do
not understand the meaning of "de
facto". Maybe you attended grade
school after they stopped teaching
Latin.

> posting more than most others combined,

This does not make anyone a moderator. No
one prevents you or anyone else from posting
as much, or 10x or 100x more.

> changing the topics on other posters' threads

Everyone does this from time to time. You do
it more often than others.

> and bullying posters away who think too much.

How come you are still here then? Maybe you
don't think quite as much as you pretend.
