Chopin - Polonaise in A-flat, op.53 "Heroic"

on: July 06, 2010, 01:44:56 PM

this is from a concert a couple of weeks ago. here is the whole program:

Medtner - two fairy tales, op.20
Quentin Kim - Sonata in g# minor
Franck - Prelude, Chorale n Fugue
INTERMISSION
Debussy - Masques / D'un cahier d'esquisses / L'isle joyeuse
Bartok - Musiques nocturnes
Messiaen - petites esquisses d'oiseaux

this was the encore. The encore is slightly dissonant from the rest of the second half... but i chose it because two of the event sponsors were polish. have to make good with the sponsors! anyways it is a little rough around the edges, first time ie ver performerd it, and learned it just for this one concert, but i think it is exciting nonetheless. enjoy!

its a 9 foot steinway, i am not sure what year, but probably pretty new... also the sound recording was very good! i had to transfer it and probably it lost quality, but on the original which i have its so clear.
thanks for listening to this slop that belongs in the pig trough! its still fun tho.
