Hi bach_ko,

Very nice playing indeed!  I'm sure you had no difficulty passing your jury exam that day.  Bravo!

A suggestion on your posting: Notice that on your link to YouTube, you have a ;) right in the middle of the URL address, thereby disabling it.  I took the trouble to hand enter the URL, as I wanted to hear your rendition of the Scherzo; but some others might not want to take the time and just skip over your posting.   To edit it, you just need to click the "Modify" button at the top right corner of your posting to access it.  Doing so will likely result in more listeners and feedback.  :)

Well, I liked the Les Adieux you posted, but this is way too sloppy for me.  Although seeing as how this is two years old, I can only assume you've had plenty of time to raise the technique a bit and work on this more, assuming it's still even something you keep in your repertoire :P
If this work is so threatening, it is not because it's simply strange, but competent, rigorously argued and carrying conviction.
