I always hate trying to nail down best at anything but I'd have to vote for Glenn Gould. Scarey good.

If we're talking Classical, which we are since this is the classical thread, then I think it's Chopin. I really love his Fantaisie-Impromptu Op. 66. It's insane how he was able to play the piano that fast. I'm actually working on this song. The bass (left) hand first. Then I will work on the right hand as soon as I master the left hand.

If we're talking modern, then I believe it's Amy Lee. She is a 9 year classically trained pianist. For those of you who don't know, she's the lead vocalist, pianist, and co-songwriter (Terry is the other co-songwriter) of Evanescence.

I also believe Tuomas Holopainen, of Nightwish, is a great pianist as well as Martin Foul, of Cradle Of Filth, and the pianist for AFI and Trivium.
