Majestic indeed.
A beautiful dissection of the piece.
His piano playing is quite astounding: solid articulation (clavecin 
like), his touch is like for piano forte and still everything stays 
perfectly separated and within tolerance.
And he stresses what I like the most about Mozart: this light frivolity 
(waterfall like, can't describe it otherwise) combined with such 
earnest sincerity.

I ordered some of his work already.
Merci bucu,
Philippe
