What a joy it must be to be able to play a masterpiece such as this--and she makes listening to it a joy.

She must have been exhausted by the end of Iberia. Yet, she played Navarra as an encore. Can you believe that?

He sentit Soler molt ben interpretat per pianistes de tot el món, però he arribat a la conclusió que com Alícia de Larrocha no hi ha cap.

Perhaps the finest pianist of the 1950s - 1990s. I had the pleasure of hearing her in concert several times. Her touch and body of sound were unique. And she was not only a great musician of Spanish music, but also Bach, Haydn, Schumann, Chopin ans so on. Thanks to Fans of Alicia de Larrocha for this. Do you have more for us, please.

Las manos de Alicia hablan entre ellas

👍

Recomiendo a todos los pianistas, incluyendo a los más endiosados, que no interpreten esta obra maestra de Albéniz, no van a poder acercarse ni de lejos a la calidad de Alicia y con toda seguridad, no van a hacer más que el ridículo.

Best interpretation, such a underrated pianist

0:40: 😢😢😢

No one plays this heavenly gem the way de Larrocha does. Granted, she romanticizes it but when the Sisyphean cantabile melody reaches into the higher notes, she creates an emphatic crescendo that is incredibly moving.

Thank you for sharing! Who could play Albéniz better than a talented Spanish pianist?

WONDERFUL BEAUTIFUL BRILLIANT

perfecta

Maximum expressiveness without a hint of vulgarity. And that amazing adherence to pulse without being mechanic, allowing a bit of leeway here and there. What a pianist!

What a lady she must have been. I would have loved to meet her or to be able to listen to her live music.

生命に満ちている！Bravo!!

Mitica Alicia❤

Baroque Gold!

( Gran suspiro ). ¡ Muchas gracias ! por compartir esta belleza. La maestra Alicia de Larrocha es patrimonio universal. Un gran ejemplo a seguir para todos los músicos.

Tres marvellous!

Brava, Maestra! 💐

A nice concert for the occasion of her birthday. I wish I could have heard her play this great program live at the Concertgebouw.

Happy Birthday to the Queen of the pianists ❤❤❤❤❤

🙏❤❤❤

MARAVILLOSO !!!!!!!

Her tone is so pure, warm and beautiful. She is famous for Spanish piano pieces, but when you listen to her Mozart, you can say that she is a Mozart specialist more than any other pianists.

che meraviglia

Mi pianista preferida 🙌

The harmonic phrasing on the opening phrase is luxurious

❤❤❤❤❤

Sempre maravilhosa!!! ❤

Her musicality is so impressive.

One of the most beautiful things I've ever heard in my life.

The beautiful resonant tone, the perfect rhythm, the accents - I love her playing!

Some pieces are too easy to play 😊

This is the Mozart of Ave Verum, the B flat piano concerto, the great F minor fantasia and Lachrymosa. It is essential. The sound of heaven

❤Agradezco poder disfrutar de esta hermosa interpretación con estos dos artistas acompañados de Mozart un lujo y una auténtica delicia. ❤

very beautiful!

Es increíble que siendo bajita y de manos pequeñas pudiera tocar excelentemente las obras más monstruosas.

Bellissima

I have listened so many recordings of her that make me think "unbelievable"

Her musicality is beyond believe.

She is UNBELIEVABLE in this recording.

Qué maravilla, no tengo palabras.

Sou absolutamente A-PAI-XO-NA-DO por esta Dança e pela interpretação perfeita da Larrocha!!!

Her sense of rhythm is insane..

Superb pianist

È sempre elegante la sua musica, il tocco preciso e raffinato! La più grande pianista! Peccato non averla conosciuta da viva! Ringrazio moltissimo chi mette su YT i suoi concerti e le sue magistrali interpretazioni! Nello studio specialmente di compositori spagnoi cerco di imitarla.....ma non è facile! 🤩💓💓🎶🎶🔝👏👏👏

the great pianist Blanche Selva who premiered Iberia initially said to Albeniz that it was "unplayable"...it was for most pianists until De Larrocha 'tore it up'!

Absolutely fantastic
