I'm crazily deeply madly in love with Valentina Lisitsa

[chopin2015]

Did you watch Lisitsa today? She first worked on Nocturne op 15 no 2, which I have worked on before! How awesome is that?!!

No, I had school.

[chopin2015]

I had stuff too(some practice and lesson) but its still up!

I can't watch it because I keep getting an error thing!!!

[outin]

Or I'm skating if it's not too cold outside.  But nobody likes skaters...  

Really? I guess you were born 20 years too late...They used to be quite popular back in the days...

But no worry, when you are a famous pianists there will be lots of groupies hanging around

Nah dude, as long as Valentina Lisitsa is alive, nobody will steal my heart from her!!!  

I hope I said that properly...

Hmmm....You didn't send it to her yet, did you?
With this rate your body parts will soon be scattered all over the world...

On the thinnest of thin ice if some of your contributions to this thread are anything by which to go...

I meant skateboarding.

But I still have absolutely no idea what you just said.

Be prepared, your English teacher might want to see you some time soon!

Can someone please advise me how to unsubscribe from a thread like this.  I remember that you used to be able to do it but I can no longer find the button to click.

[rachmaninoff_forever]

OH MY GOD!!!  I LOVE VALENTINA LISITSA!!!

[austinarg]

Like we didn't know already. 

[perprocrastinate]

I wonder if she's going to upload Rachmaninoff's second sonata.

I somehow became obsessed with the piece yesterday, and I'm looking for every single interpretation possible to listen to.

You're starting to become like me...  With me, you, and Valentina Lisitsa, we're unstoppable!!!


No but yeah, I don't like any one else's first sonata besides Valentina.  And I wish she would've done a lot of things differently as well, so I'm not too satisfied with what the world offered concerning that particular sonata.

That makes it perfect to be your next piece.

PRECISELY!

Except my teacher won't let me...

Bribe him with Bach. A 5 part fugue or two should do it.

I wonder if that would work.  This guy is like obsessed with Bach.

But I already have two in my bag of tricks!

So 46 to go. And your two aren't 5 parters.

"Skating on thin ice" is a euphemism for taking great risks; get it now?

Best,

Alistair

[ahinton]

And you aren't obsessed with anyone, of course!

I have to admit that I am relieved to think that the likelihood that Ms Lisitsa is reading this thread is as vanishingly small as it must surely be.

If she indeed has your heart, as you implied earlier, I hope that she's looking after it properly and has it adequately insured (not that it would be of much use to anyone in such a state of disconnection)...

Alistair

I'm not so sure.  She might not be narcissistic or megalomaniac, but for a pianist who owes her reputation to internet fads like Youtube, she must be self-hating to the extreme if she does not type her name once and a while (if not more often) in the search box on Piano Street, the major internet forum for pianists.

Well, who knows; if any evidence if such perusal on her part ever does materialise, it might be interesting for some to discover her take on it all, not least the contributions from our resident member lisitsa_forever or whatever he calls himself...

Learn it anyway. What's the worst that could happen? It's not like you don't have the technical mastery to tackle it, right?

R-4, the following is not meant for your eyes, DO NOT READ!

I am fairly convinced that an intelligent adult woman with a family while aiming for a public career would be nothing more than amused by being an object of "love" of an adolescent boy. Despite the occasional overdoing I think we can conclude that we are not dealing with a stalker here...

Hmmm...don't you ever listen to your elders? 

Ever heard the saying curiosity killed the cat? 

[perprocrastinate]

I think I see an optical illusion.

I'm deeply madly in love with Outin.....

Maybe this thread is getting bit too weird...

I'm deeply madly in love with myself

As if it wasn't to start with.

I'm deeply madly in love with Tim Tams (a chocolate biscuit for those who don't now them)

[pytheamateur]

time to let go of Lisitsa and use your pianistic skills to attract some real ladies.

[rachmaninoff_forever]

lisitsa_forever

Hmmmmmmmm, I like the sound of that!  Has a nice ring to it.

How do you change your username?

No but yeah, only if Rachmaninoff was a girl...

Don't you dare badmouth Lisitsa like that ever again!!!

[perprocrastinate]

Aside from the other 50 million reasons why you should give up on Valentina Lisitsa, don't you think she's a little too old for you?

Never met him, but I am sure he's delightful

Now don't you even think about going body snatching!

[pytheamateur]

Don't you dare badmouth Lisitsa like that ever again!!!

How am I badmouthing her?  By real ladies I meant people that you will actually meet in your real life where there is a chance that they will return your love.  Will you charm Lisitsa with your pianistic skills?  No, not unless you can play better than her.  And if you can, then you would'nt have been deeply madly in love with her in the first place.  Not to mention that it will make Lisitsa a bad wife and mother (if not an adulterer) for her to return your love.  If you think she is capable of that, then it is really you who is badmouthing her.

[rachmaninoff_forever]

No, with my...

my...

playwriting skills!!!

And pianistic ability had nothing to do with this.


No but yeah, once I write that piano sonata for her, that'll charm her!

[j_menz]

Stalker Sonata does have kinda a ring to it. 

[ahinton]

Stalker Sonata does have kinda a ring to it.  

Or maybe the Lisitsa Sonata in B minor...

Incidentally, I note with not a whole lot of curious interest that someone registered on another music forum yesterday with the ID "Lisitsian", which makes one wonder whether we might know the identity of this new member...

Best,

Alistair

How about...

J Menz is the same person as ajspiano sonata.

Not only am I unable to perceive the point of this thread, I cannot even see what the above has to do with it! If any thread's well outlived any usefulness that it may once have had (not that I think it did have any such), it's surely this one!

Why not just let Ms Lisitsa get on with what she does (she will anyway) and you get on with what you do (besides perpetuating threads like this one, of course!)?...

Best,

Alistair

[rachmaninoff_forever]

Not only am I unable to perceive the point of this thread,

It initially was to post some videos of Valentina Lisitsa.

but some people went a little overboard...

Gee. Ya think?
