I compared the historical great pianists with the historical great singers through the same works. It is the second and final video of the series. One of the most influential points of 19th century and Golden Age pianism was vocalists. First video link: https://youtu.be/8bpZn122RQs
First of all, it's not specifically research for video. For over ten years, I have been collecting and researching these records for myself. It was actually something I did for myself to understand things better on the piano: How to give right hand vocal effect on piano?
What is 19th century Bel Canto legato" and how is it adapted for piano? How should Chopin rubato be -because Chopin's understanding of rubato is free like a right-handed vocalist, left-handed accompanist-?
In order to perceive these correctly, I listened to historical vocalists as well as historical pianists. And I could see the relationship between them very clearly. I thought this kind of comparison was the best way to describe the relationship between pianists and vocalists.
