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

[andhow04]

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!

Not bad at all.  Enjoyed listening to it.  You showed lots of different ways to approach this old war horse.

Thanks for sharing this recording.  Could you please tell me what Piano you were using here - it sounds great!

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.
