Maintaining skill across the life span: Magaloff's entire Chopin at age 77

Abstract

The study is based on a corpus containing the entire works of Chopin performed by Nikita Magaloff at the age of 77, precisely measured and fully annotated with score information. On this data we test a model of successful aging, including selection, optimisation and compensation hypotheses (SOC). We identify performance errors, compare Magaloff’s Etudes with recordings by 14 other renowned pianists, and investigate specific age effects in a selected Nocturne in 14 different recordings.
