Just like Mozart, Beethoven did not write down everything in the pieces he performed himself. In the C minor piano concerto, for instance, a contemporary recalled that he played from a score resembling hieroglyphics. Winner of the 2012 Anda Géza Piano Competition in Zurich, the phenomenal Varvara Nepomnyaschaya, performs not from hieroglyphics, nor from a properly edited score, but by memory and from the heart. Markus Hinterhauser, a member of the jury at the Anda competition said it is "staggering, there are hardly words for the way this girl plays. Quite simply she makes you forget the instrument on which she is playing; more than this cannot really be said of a pianist."
