The Quiet Revolutionary of the Piano – Fauré’s Complete Piano Works Now on Piano Street

In the pantheon of French music, Gabriel Fauré (1845–1924) often seems a paradox—an innovator cloaked in restraint, a Romantic by birth who shaped the contours of modern French music with quiet insistence. Piano Street now provides sheet music for his complete piano works: a body of music that resists spectacle, even as it brims with invention and brilliance. Read more

It's funny, I just had this piece in my head before I came here and saw this. Very profound interpretation. It reminds me of something one of my teachers told me once: A good pianist has always time... :)

Hi marik,

It's great to see you back at the Audition Room!  Your interpretation and execution of this less-often-heard intermezzo are marvelous! Your playing is most artistic--very thoughtful, deeply felt, and poetic.  You project the Brahmsian "burnished sound" throughout.  And the pedaling used in shaping phrases and the long line is masterful.  Because Brahms often thought orchestrally when composing for piano, in some ways his music is more profound and difficult to play as compared to other repertoire; but you "put it across" to the listener most effectively.  I say, Bravo!  
Interpreting music means exploring the promise of the potential of possibilities.

I think anything from marik should be automatically nominated to the "exceptional audition room recordings thread."

excellent playing!  It made me want to learn this piece, until I looked at the score.  then I had second thoughts... :/
