Chopin Mazurka Op. 68 No. 3 video
on: May 16, 2011, 10:04:26 PM
I just thought I would throw this out there and see what people think.  I lost my place for a second coming out of the fast part but I was able to continue.  My edition doesn't say to do this but I make some of the notes into staccato.  I kinda like how it sounds like that, hopefully it isn't weird.  Let me know, thanks.

Very entertaining!  It sounds as though you had the electric piano set on "harpsichord".  I like the idea of doing the Chopin mazurkas on a harpsichord, if the range of notes in them permits it.

Thank you.  I had it set to normal piano mode though, probably just the bad camera that I have.

Why do you always play a B♮ instead of a Bb in M. 4 and in all similar measures? That's weird.

Thanks for pointing that out to me.  The only reason I could think of is that I got used to playing a B natural in a previous measure and when learning the piece forgot to make it a B flat in other measures.  I just gave it a try with the B flat and like how it sounds a lot more with it being flat.  Thanks again.
