Hi there! I recorded two pieces that I played at Carl Filtsch International Competition - Festival for Pianists and Composers in Sibiu/Romania. I played Rachmaninoff - Moment Musicaux op. 16 no. 4:

and Chopin - Etude op. 10 no. 5:

And as I will play in a concert at the end of the August, I would really want to hear some advices from you...

All the best!

Hi Valentin

!!!
Let me just say many have listened to your playing without saying a word...
how can I?? (or they?) ... it is of such confidence and high quality, more
so that you are only 14. Congratulations on your win. I hope you do not mind ..
the way you play the Rach, you remind me of Nikolai Lugansky's manner.
Good luck on your concert, but the way you play, I don't know if you need it?

A very fine performance, indeed! Bravo. I especially liked your Chopin. There was no element of "etude" or "study" in it. It was just beautiful music. Beautifully projected.
Also the Rachmaninov, of course. But start out a little lighter and understated. and Then build it up as you go along.
But very impressive playing. and you're probably only 18 years old.
