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

Video: Chopin's Nocturne Op. 9 No. 2
on: November 15, 2011, 06:28:49 AM
Hello forum,

I haven't been around here much but I'd like to hear what you think about this recording I made of one of Chopin's most famous Nocturnes.
It's a fairly easy piece, I know, but that's exactly why I chose to record this: I started playing this about 4 weeks ago to take a break from practising Rachmaninov's Prelude Op. 23 No. 5 which I'm having a whole lot of trouble with.

This is only like the 4th take I shot because I didn't aim for complete perfection but just an okay performance.
There's a few mistakes in the notes and some places that I'd want to play a little differently but I guess it'll do for a first recording.


Please don't be afraid to speak your mind, I'm interested in ALL the comments you have. :)

Regards,
Insensus
