Opinions can be very subjective in this regard and I'd like to hear your mazurkas if you play them 10000000000000000 times better!?!
Surely if you are this good you should be more famous than Biret!!

I think Elf was using hyperbole.

ok, this comment has convinced me that you need your hearing checked. His Chopin isn't the best but there is a lot of great playing in there (like the nocturnes). Biret... well the less said the better imo.

I think she's a great player, but I think Martha Argerich's interpretation of the Polonaise 'Heroique' is horrible. It seems to be rushed.
