Some surprises on that list. And some recency bias. Though that might be justified, in general, if not in all the specifics. I've seen all the living ones, FWIW. |

HOLY CARP!!!

Inclusion of Lang Lang is nice, but that list is simply not credible without Liberace and Richard Clayderman. |

Yanni is better known as a composer than a (performing) pianist. So I am ok with giving them a pass for leaving out Yanni. |
