From my recital on April 6 in an old church. I hope you like my interpretation.

That was a wonderful performance.  I was wondering how old you are.  The tempi, for me, were a bit on the fast side - I'm talking about the slow lyrical parts:  the allegretto moderato, the appassionata, the andantino, etc.  You can do so much more with those lucious lines and harmonies.  But, like I say, you play like your age, and your interpretation will change with time.  But you've got the material, that's for sure!  And what a background!  You should have played the "funerailles" as well!

Thank you very much birba. It encourages me so much to hear such good words from you. Thank you again. By the way I'm now 14 years old.
