Fabulous! She performed this better than any of the others I found on CZcams. No theatrics, just plain solid, strong fingers and great command. She's quite a "find" for me among pianists.
I agree wholeheartedly. I have scoured CZcams listening to others. None come close. She acknowledges the greatness of this music through a respectful interpretation, powerful delivery and absence of perfunctory embellishment and unnecessary and inappropriate interference with the momentum of this piece of music. I listen to this every day sometimes several times. Magnificent and inspiring in these troubled times.
from all the Toccata and Fugue I searched all over the internet, this is more like it. I love this song very much and you play it beautifully. it captured my ears and tears, all over again.
You are an angel in this world, and this is the only value which we can enjoy in this life. You are not perfect and this is the reason why people love your interpretation. You are a big human heard, playing the piano... never i enjoyed so much any interpretation of this peace, you can believe me !!! And i am sure i am not the only one with this feeling for you. Please go ahead with many more publications in youtube!!! Please do not stop, you are wonderful!!!
Now this is how this piece should be played, such a joy that i couldn't help but give a round of applause after absorbing that, excellent is the only descriptive that justly conveys the truth of it, i've been entranced by this piece since i was 11 years old so the bar is high ergo i subscribed immediately after hearing.
I just want to tell you you're awesome, amazing and brilliant. You don't need to play piano to know how freaking difficult that piece is. I mean, it's practically made to show off how difficult it is to master.That aside, I love your interpretation of it. It's honestly my favorite piece and you captured the essence of it. It's a juxtaposition of sorts, grim and ominous parts followed by light and mellow tunes. I think of it as a statement on existence: Turmoil, and then Silence. Thank you so much for sharing your gift to the world :)
I was never a musical person, blessed with 2 left feet lol, but I hear where you are coming from, with regards to the music. Many thanks for your recording. Peace Love Happiness JJ
Lo escucho una y otra vez y digo que buena eres realmente, como alguien puede llegar a ese nivel de expresión musical tan brillante brindame tu secreto talento o mucho trabajo?... te deseo muchos éxitos sigue adelante saludos desde Cusco Perú.
I've only just got around to listening to this I was so preoccupied with your other superb performances _ you are as amazing as the other comments say plus more and I cannot find words in English to describe the effect your playing has on me - I'll just say you are truly magnificent - I would love more.
been looking for a piano version of this that isn't too fast and doesn't use so much damper pedal and this is it! so well done, i've already watched a few times now. thanks for such a great performance of one of my favorite pieces
I was looking for another version of this to listen to, and without previously knowing this performer, I chose one of the shortest performance times, since I instinctively feel this should not be played too slowly. I was not disappointed. This is a very nice performance. Thank you.
Yes. Awesome performance. I've watched it 5 or 6 times now - with many more to come. I like the last 30 seconds where she moves the left hand over the right hand.
I'm dead now.. Just watched a man playing this with a classic guitar, I thought this would not be that tough on the piano.. Beyond compare performance.
Whoa, beautiful! What a fantastic piano interpretation! You have a ton of skill - I can play it on organ, but what you've done is actually more technically challenging, and you've pulled it off magnificently. Organ manuals (even trackers with several couplings) are generally easier to play than piano keys, especially fast sequences. Thank you for sharing!
Hard song few mistakes but better than me at it. Could tell was nervous at start the shaky hands i get that to but then got into the flow just your transition was little rough all and all 9/10
I should have mentioned there is a very good transcription by Carl Tausig (I gave the local school a performance of it which went well). I was wondering if you have seen or heard it.

I have never seen that piece brought to life like that before. Takes my breath away each time I watch it. Fierce
Perfect toccata. Amazing to listen.
This interpretation is flawless and therefore divine.
How could anyone dislike this? It was wonderful
Performance is a perfection of some unthinkable level!
Fantastic well done young lady a masterpiece of playing.
Magnificent. No other description. I found this yesterday and have watched and listened to it probably twenty times since then. Bravo!
wonderful performance!
A moving and beautiful performance! Thanks so much, Sotiria! Left me breathless.
Outstanding performance!

thanks a lot for this nice comment :-)
@butter fingers Yes, it is not technically difficult, but difficult to memorize. Why not show us your playing?
@butter fingers its not difficult?? You play it???
@butter fingers well! So its easy ?
It's relative to the person.
I'm trying to learn this piece- this is very very inspirational for me. Well done!!
Amazing performance. Thank you!

Her talent is so hot and her face looks so cool and I am so touched. I can’t help love it !

Wow!! Fantastic performance
Una esecuzione molto bella: nitida, squillante, pulita. Bach e Busoni sotto le dita di Sotiria vivono un perfetto connubio !
Really epic interpretation of the original organ song

Terrific playing! We need pianists like you in these troubled times. Thank you so much! Have you tried Percy Grainger’s version?

Very nice! you have an amazing skill, though there have been some mistakes, it was still stunning! good job.
I love this performance, some of the passages are the best I’ve ever heard of it.
UUUUUUAAAAAAAAAAAAAAUUUUUU!! VERY VERY NICE!! YOU PLAY VERY WELL!!!ONE KISS FOR YOU!!!

👍👌❤
Tour de force, extreme playing. Through I don't mind too much, because the piano quick decay leaves little room for long dramatic notes.
ΦΟ-ΒΕ-ΡΗ!!!!!
An organ piece but she gets a big sound. Good octaves. Sounds good on the Classical guitar too ( you forger the range )..
telephone in the backgroud lol
Awesome.. how many years of practice?
SDG!

My daughter is playing - she has been playing for a 2-3 yrs now ;-)
this masterpiece needs an organ... unless sotiria kitsou has a piano handy
Красотка!
Que locura.. Hay partes que ni se entienden musicalmente
strange version... but interestning
esta obra maestra precisa de un organo..... a menos que sotiria kitsou tenga a mano un piano
NO HAY ORGANO?? NO HAY PROBLEMA LLAMEN A SOTIRIA
