'Surprises'
on: December 21, 2012, 02:54:01 PM
Well, I tried to find this line from Chopin's Fantasie op.49 at many pianists and when I was ready to give up, I found Cziffra with this superb recording.  ;D

No pianist brings this line from 6:18 to 6:21 excepting Cziffra. I could bring it, but i did it at the last sequence, not the middle one (as Cziffra does), because the last of the three sequences is the more passionate, youthful one for me, yet an echo of the first two and needs this distinction of the first and the second one. I can't explain it, maybe it's not necessary to bring this line even though I feel it's one of the 'surprises' Chopin hides beneath the notes.
