Beautiful Scarlatti! :)

Beautiful Scarlatti! :)
Yes, indeed!
Any other recordings?

Beautiful Scarlatti, and amazing Chopin etude I must say. You get the spirit of the piece pretty well, and the textures are beautiful. Your schumann toccata is amazing, very clean, but at the same time very "full" of sound(it flows well). That granados piece was amazing too! I never heard it before, but you sure played it magnificiently, stuningly fluid. I definately love that piece. It's mood is so fun :) Anyways, you definately are an amazing pianist ! I wish you best of luck with your career.

Thanks to all,
in the next time I will add other recordings but I don't know when!
Sometime you can visit the site ;)
Bye
Mauro

i like the design of the site and btw i like the brahms recording a lot :D
-
Beautiful Schumann Toccata, so full of energy! And impressive 10/2. I agree with ganymed, nice site design (took me a while until I found the controls, but that's only stupid me...). Good luck for your career!

Beautiful playing. I particulary enjoyed the Liszt Hungarian Rhapsody.
I was also impressed by the sound of the instrument. Could you tell us what it is?
Best wishes for your career.

very very very nice Scarlati. Wonderfull dinamics, such a great clarity. It´s very concise, and clear, very well articulated. Brahms is realy deep and passinate. You can definately sing. Chopin 10/2 is great, very clear, great tempo. It´s an outstanding job in all pieces, you got very good taste to imo. Congrats. Good luck on your carrer, I will look forward for more recordings.

The piano is a Stenwey Gran Coda Model D
Thanks to all for your posts
-
it has a harpsichordish sound. very nice! however you got this out of the steinway like that - gran coda D you say?! anyways...your trills are so even! and you have a good sense of intensity. sometimes i think you speed things more than i would - but it has a very elegant italian feel. perhaps what i mean in speeding is that the kinetic forward movement is too fast right at the beginning of the speeding points sometimes. it's like you move into the faster tempo too fast. instead of just slightly more gradually. just my thoughts anyways. kinetic like. i actually liked the second one a bit better for this reason.
the beethoven sounds too 'pokey' at the beginning (like you are playing beethoven with scarlatti style - with a lot of very short staccato). i would try to show a bigger contrast from the way you play scarlatti. a bit more sort of marcato instead of short staccato. or even, in places - just held longer and more accented rather than marcato. i really like the alternate sections - but when it returns to the A section variation. it's 'pokey' again. like you are poking it with pins. i think you are too concerned with clarity in the beethoven. there's room to be a bit mysterious and not commandingly clear. it takes all the mystery out.
-
the opus 118 #2 - is very longing and convincing. i really like the top notes that you hold out and make so violinish. my only complaint in this is a couple of spots that seem rushed. i think this should be played as though you are talking - and saying each of the phrases. you can/could even make up words. then, you will not be tempted to finish one phrase and start another a second too soon. the person to whom you are speaking will not think the previous phrase was important -if the next one starts on the last word of the previous.
not sure if i am making any sense.
i know brahms wrote it as though it were waves lapping up on a shore. but they are, to me, relaxed waves.
another interpretation that had crossed my mind would be that every other phrase is brahms - and inbetween is clara. that they, throughout their lives, had a sort of musical duet going on. they don't want to overpower the other - and are kind and thoughtful to each other to give each other the space and room - and yet synchronize occasionally throughout all this. (mid-section seems to show the busyness of their lives and lack of time that brahms wished they might have together). the 'A' sections always seemed to me to indicate the times that they shared together without the busyness and stress. completely relaxed.

Thanks "pianistimo" for your post.
I appreciate your opinion.
-
you're welcome. you have a lot of grace to your playing and you don't overdo dynamics. i like that a lot in the beethoven.
-
Wow, Mauro, very impressive.
You do have something very special about your playing.
Wishing you much success,
Rami
