I think that is amazing playing. Of course there is still some work to do on the quality of your sound/adjusting the pedal, but hey the only work you have to do on this is very, very high-level. I tought that was amazing.

Thanks! ;)
The pedal on this piano was (for me) difficult to control because it's totally different than mine and i haven't played on it before the concert.
On this one you have to touch it very softly and the dampers are all up in the sky.. :)
Because of that it gets a little bit mushy in some passages..

You play this piece very well. One of the biggest challenges with this work is to balance the many moods of this kaleidoscopic work so that is sounds like one whole rather than several separate pieces just strung together . BTW - why do you have the screen name "failed" - doesn't exactly inspire confidence in a potential audience?

The truth is i didn't thought about the username..
One day i wanted to register on a website and it announced: Registration failed. Username xxxxx is already used.. and so i took and kept "failed" because i don't care about nicknames :)

Hi failed,

Excellent playing!  I spent time on this Fantasie myself, so well appreciate its challenges.  You brought a wonderful "sweep" in performing this music, as well as deep expression, poetry, and excitement.  Congratulations!
