Not a perfect performance, but I think it's listenable.
Comments, advice etc are most welcome.

Thanks,

Hi berrt,

Thanks for your comment.
I once performed this piece in march 2006, at that time I fully played by memory.
But during this recording I read some pages in Lassan section.

Yes, it's not easy to read and to memorize. But to pull this piece off, I recommend you to memorize, at least the friska section.

P.S sorry for a very late reply

It is beautiful...
Maybe not perfect but very very good

It's been a kind of a childhood dream for me to play that one, maybe some day I will but for now it is way out of my league.

Congratulations  :D
I am perfectly normal, it is everyone else who is strange.
