...who cares. its just a piece that most people with multiple years of experience could learn. it may seem odd that i can play it because im 12 but ive had 7 years of experience and look at arrau who played liszt transcendental etudes and brahms paginini variations at 11 (even though im no claudio arrau ). I told the truth that i was lying about islamey but thats one of the hardest pieces on earth that i shouldnt be ashamed of not playing but the first ballade is VERY VERY FAR from being one of the hardest pieces ever written. There are many other people on pianostreet that claim they play hard pieces, harder than the g minor ballade, why dont you nag them about it?I hope i proved my point well.
didnt mean to rant but im tired of all these arguments about 'hard' pieces. the purpose of my thread was to compare the four ballades, not attract kids to brag about how young they are and how 'hard' their pieces are.
But dont you see? Comparing difficulty and musicality is totally SUBJECTIVE. It doesent matter if anyone says "this is hard, but that is harder." If you want to find out how hard it is, sit down at the piano and try.
