Interview GM Peter Heine Nielsen

29 September 2007 17:00 PM

After my interview with Loek van Wely, Vladimir Kramnik second in Mexico, I also had an interview with Peter Heine Nielsen, Viswanathan Anand’s second. Thursday, right after the start of the twelth round, we spoke about different things, from working with Anand and the atmosphere in the team to Magnus Carlsen and Nielsen as a chess writer.

    Heh, sound to me like he has to some degree adopted Anand’s accent.
    Anyway, another interesting interview.

    You are right Zakki! He is saying “Stuff like this”, “Sure”, and of course “Actually”, typical Indian phrases and pronounced almost Indy-Style too. Great observation.

    Yeah, i noticed too. Another one is listen how Nielsen pronuonced “well”….it’s sound typical Indian with extra stress on leter “L”.

    Zakki make a very good point! Peter does sound remarkably like Vishy. They say that pets take on the characteristic of their owners. The same is obviously true of Grandmaster seconds!

Got something to say?
