Walter Gieseking plays Mendelssohn's "Andante e Rondo capriccioso" in E op.14

Recored live on April 18, 1956. This is a kind of miracle from the hands of this great pianist, if only for the stormy closing bars soon after the theme of the Rondo dies poco a poco. Don't know why he omits one of the last four chords, maybe he has choosen or more probably an error, but that kind of error which has greater value than the right notes of so many pianists. It was listening to this that first realized he has been one of the truly great pianists of all times, before I believed him too standard, for example in Mozart, and now his Mozart playing is one of my favourite. That's how hard-headed I am!
