i knew that's what it would be when i read the topic.

i don't like it very much, jazz is depressing. since your new i wonder if you have heard the volodos one, it's very brilliante, though i don't think most people here like it.

This one is much better (Waldstein Sonata)

If it doesn't work - try something different!

Wow that was real skills (Waldstein), especially the doggy.

The Fazil Say is awesome, learned it in a week, around grade 7-8 ABRSM
Bach - Partita No.2
Scriabin - Etude 8/12
Debussy - L'isle Joyeuse
Liszt - Un Sospiro

Goal:
Prokofiev - Toccata

The Waldstein is a much better and more sophisticated arrangement. However, Fazil is harder to play.
Both the pianists posses excellent technique!!
