I also saw the Andre Watts concert wherein some of the audience started
clapping before the end of the op. 25 No 1 etude. Couldn't believe it!
Anyway, I was at a concert many years ago at the Royal Festival Hall in
London, given by Tamas Vasary. Part of the program was three pieces by
Bartok and just to be sure the audience knew when he had finished them
he bounced up at the end and bowed before the applause had started!
(Just as well too .. I wouldn't have known when they were over ... not
familiar with Bartok at all). 
Tamas Vasary is perhaps my favourite pianist. I've never heard him make
a mistake in concert but, even if he did, I enjoy SEEING a live performance
as much as HEARING it. Records can't capture that feeling of being there.
