Her last name actually means FOX in Russian.

Foxy Lady indeed!

Cecil Taylor must be the main influence here. He's big among Russian intelligentsia- next only to John Zorn.

You want some Ravel, check out Un Barque and Alborada from Naida Cole:

Just files, though, no video.

Hamelin strikes me as though I were being struck ... as in beaten, pummeled, etc.

Guess I'll have to get RealPlayer going, but I have heard Cole's Gaspard before...

Curious as to impact of Hamelin. He can keep things so soft and smooth during difficult passages and never indulges in the Cziffra 'fast = loud' equivalence.

As for the Rachmaninov op. 39, no. 6 I have an MP3 of Sergio Fiorentino going at it at the same tempo, so I guess the Lisitsas didn't have the intended impact here. Is there a Richter?
