Goodness, I'm sure if you look up the word 'virtuosity', you would see these names pop up:

Sergi Rachmaninoff
Josef Hofmann
Arthur Rubinstein
Van Cliburn
Franz Liszt
Ignaz Paderewski
Oscar Peterson
Glenn Gould
Sviatoslav Richter
Evgeny Kissin

and my personal favorites David Lanz and Dudley Moore.

Yes I do love classical, jazz, blues, and new age as u can probably tell. I play piano myself but, if I could rip off any hands and replace it with mine I would choose one of those guys or even Liberace. Some of those people were just unbelieveable. Talk about virtuosity, geez..........
