Chopin Etude Op 10 No 9
on: May 15, 2012, 04:01:54 PM
This was an encore in my recital.  I know there are some mistakes (I think due to tiredness). I hope you like the performance. The camera lost focus because of that flower :(

 ;D yes the cam indeed focused on the flowers, but your music and playing came through very NICELY, at least for me. You have some very good videos in YT ... I especially liked the "Erlkonig" (Schubert - Liszt).

Do I remember rightly that you posted this with the mephisto about 4 or 5 months back?

If so I'd say on my first and very brief listen its matured nicely.. I hope to take a closer look/listen soon. :)

Great playing and control.

Despite the wrong notes at start, it's good overall.  ;)
