Tres beau.  Have no idea whether piano playing is male or female...

Jemboy --
        Going for the Steve Vai look? You have his guitar, his sunglasses... and you can play very well! I also play guitar and piano, and as such, I am impressed with your abilities, especially because you are so young... speaking of which, how old are you?

[lenny]

joe townley seems to thing hes 17 for some reason, but in his profile it says 22

Ashkenazy's 1965 recording of Rach 2 is my favorite interpretation of the work, but there are a few places where it was obvious that some splicing occurred.

yes, but in this case, it shows that jemboy is likely incapable of holding up that kind of speed and sccuracy for as long.

Thank goodness for you, Lenny.  Thank absolute goodness.

Lenny, we're not idiots.  Of course we know that some editing occurred and of course we know what this suggests.  Heck, I'm sure the kid in the videos knows. In other words, you have no need (or right) to point out what's pretty obvious to everybody.  That being the case, at least some people had the courtesy to offer some positive comments and suggestions.

You need a break.  If your wrist has a problem, figure it out.  It didn't seem to stop Leon Fleisher.

I can't comment about the artistry of his performances, because the sound over my computer speakers is poor but I couldn't help but notice (inescapably) the brilliance and showmanship of his playing. Also his versatility and openness to all kinds of music whether old or modern, European or American, bodes very well for him. He plays guitar and piano, classical and jazz, at the age of only 22. Of course, there is a long road ahead, but he deserves all the encouragement in the world. There is a lot of restlessness in his playing on account of his age, or maybe it was by choice that we got to hear nothing slow and dreamy. He is probably capable of that too, besides great showmanship. Bon debut et a bas les railleurs!

So good to see some media from ppls here So i dont care if it is grade 1 or 100 its all great good awesome!

Of course you want the critic, because you have probably heard people giving you praise all the time. here is what i listened to and think  (if i had to be critical). Overall its amazing, so i loved listening to it. And in recordings we never play our best anyway, so

Variations sur carmen on the upright, it looks like it is eating away at ur energy trasfer. It can't suck up enough, looks like you physically forcing big sounds because the instrument doesnt seem to react well enough. That reduces the effect of accented notes, they just dont seem to have enough bite.
Length of longer notes just vanish and you cant hear them, the crisp accent that should be natural at the peak of arpeggio runs aren't projected/accented enough.

Variations sur Ruslan & Ludmilla. When the Rh runs (seconds:22-25 and 28-31), it just seems like you need a lighter RH touch. Also this is important so that after the second 31 when you move into the next section it makes more sense, rather than just the same quality of sound traveling between the two parts. The control of touch doesnt seem to make the progression into the other sections sound logical and obvious. Sounds like someone speaking sentences without full stops if that makes sense.

Etudes N°12op.25 (Left Hand): Arm seems to me to move up and down a little excessively when running up arpeggios need to be refined slightly it may give you overall better controll/balance (cos i kept feeling that you should hold onto the piano or something with the other hand ).
More length in the singing notes especially as you come to climax. Tempo is ok, but can be faster of course and i think held back the slightest to give this more length to the big singing sections.

Oh the Chopin Nocturne was beautiful *sniff* lol

I think Jemboy is very talented.  He can play classical piano, guitar, and jazz. All very well.  Who else can do that? 

[aquariuswb]

Jemboy... A little Yngwie Malmsteen? I used to play most of the Trilogy Suite, but I haven't listened to Malmsteen in ages. Very well done!

[shasta]

New video on line for those which that interests: Hungarian Rapsody N°2 of Franz Liszt.

Go in the section custom,video created for the occasion a teaching idea which I had who consist has to make of the vidéos on order, in other words no matter who can on my forum propose to me to record such or such work of such or such composer by asking for plans of sight private individual has such or such moment etc... All that for 1 SMS/CALL.

The rapsody N°2 makes party of these orders, it was made by an Australian young person of 17years old.

More To come the premiere ballade from Chopin, as well as the night posthumous one in Ut#mineur.
