Hi, it's nice playing. I can't comment much on this performance, it sounds great to me but I don't play this style of music so it's hard for me to criticize it- I can't see anything wrong with your performance, it's well played.

Hi xhunterjx,

Muczynski seems to favor a percussive and staccato sound from the piano, not unlike some of Prokofiev's composing for the instrument.  I tend to prefer and play the more lyrical side of the piano repertoire, so have not studied or played these preludes, thus will refrain from making too many comments here.  Overall, I very much liked your strong rhythmic drive, dynamic contrasts, and your sense of line and direction.  You have a fine technique that serves Muczynski's intentions well.  I think you brought out the potential of this music through your interpretations, and I must say I greatly enjoyed your performances.  They are very convincing!
Interpreting music means exploring the promise of the potential of possibilities.

Nice job Hunter, these are neat pieces.  I enjoyed the mechanical sound of #6 (I believe) like a big machine shop or evil robots rampaging a city  :D.  Muczynski, I will have to remember that name.
