Having just watched her documentary I find her a very good pianist of her generation.    Anyone else agree?

I still prefer the earlier Grimaud, before she tried too hard to be profound and different.
Do what I must do, and let what must happen happen.

What would you consider her Top3 recordings? preferably solo recitals

One of Sarge's favorites, I'm sure he'll have some good ideas...
Be kind to your fellow posters!!

Yep. A fine looking woman, too, beautifully spoken, and obviously intelligent. And she likes wolves!

Her op.109 & 110; her album Resonances (Berg Sonata, Liszt Sonata, Mozart Sonata A minor K.310 and Bartok Roumanian Folk Dances); and her late Brahms.
