Wow, I was looking up something on You Tube about Dmitri Shostakovich and happened to come upon this amazing video [thanks to the channel of Nechljudov] of a clip of Shostakovich himself playing the finale of his virtuosic Piano Concerto #1 in C minor.
This was taken in the year, 1940. This is amazing!
Now for a bonus video, please turn up the volume to watch the entire Dmitri Shostakovich Concerto #1 in C minor for piano and trumpet: [Daniil Trifonov-Russian pianist at the keyboard]:
