Viner showing off shows that one does not have to play fast to sound good. I still like Field's Nocturne 5, the first of his Nocturnes I ever heard, and the way it is played here, almost mechanically. I like a pianist to stay close to what is written, and in this video I don't have to look at him. Same for the Latin Mass and why it is so much better. Same reason I dislike many university people - boring show-offs.
