no comments? constructive criticism would be welcome. this is a piece one never really feels done with...

Sadly enough... I've never even heard of this piece of music, yet alone played or looked at the sheet music.

I'd love to help you Fnork - but I don't know a damn thing about this piece. It sounded rather impressive though. Carefully articulated and played with conviction.

Technically, a very fine performance indeed. If I could make one suggestion, be more playful with it. I didn't get enough of a sense of the sheer mischief of the goblin. You made him scary, but not playfully so.

I didn't get a chance to listen to the whole thing yet, only the first two minutes or so.  I was impressed by what I heard.  this is such a dizzying piece of music that I am constantly impressed that anyone can play it, let alone play it well.  anyway, thank you for presenting it.  I take it you play the other two parts of Gaspard de la Nuit?  I'd love to hear your rendition of the whole set.

perfectpitch, I'm surprised you are unfamiliar with this work.  I thought it was pretty well-known.

Thanks for the comments, I found them helpful. It´s true there should´ve been more playfullness in it - again, the work with something like this seems endless...

scottmcc- I did perform the whole Gaspard a couple of times and also posted a recording of it here earlier on in the audition room - you might find it somewhere...

OMG man, this is hard!!! You still play it very well, congrats!!

Wow Good job man !!  only few people have courage to learn this piece ,
you have to increase your tempo a little more , and try to do more staccato in the repeated notes passages they will sound better

Thanks! Perhaps should pick up this little triptych again, haven´t touched it since last year
