From the competition website:PRACTISINGYour hotel rooms will be equipped with digital pianos so you all could practice as much as you need (with headphones, of course). Every contestant will also get about 2 hours a day of practicing in the Fryderyk Chopin University of Music in Warsaw (the same place as during the Preliminary Round). An additional opportunity will be provided by the piano brands present at the Competition.
Outin don't, you made my heart rate spike!!
I think you could be the first maverick to succeed in the competition, using some imitations to spice up your performances
...Chopin's Third sonata, the first movement will be played in the style of Martha Argerich, ...
Whoa! You're Annie Zhou's mother?!!!!
@glennross: Thank you so much for your kind replying! Wow, You've been there 2 times! And I am very happy to hear about the digital piano! That is for sure a wonderful news! So, we don't really need to worry about practicing out side? Thanks so much again! Janet (contestant Annie Zhou's mother)
Wel,, actually, glenross claims he's 16. Figure it out.
And why exactly would this not be possible, my dear sir?
For any of you who have not seen Annie's amazing preliminary round in 2015, below is the link. Janet, we will be rooting for her!
"My dear sir" is a girl named Emily, and that's not possible because the Chopin competition happens every 5 years and you have to be 15 to compete.Thanks for the link dogperson, I remember when prelims were going I had the live stream going. When she came on I had a head-snap and I had to look and see who this was playing. Sort of like what I did for George Li's op. 10 no. 4
I'm so sorry. I didn't read for the thread title. Warsaw, I was talking about the one in Szafarnia. The Warsaw competition is a much too high level of Chopin for me.
Annie Zhou, eh?Always happy to help a fellow Canadian out! BW,Glenn
you didn't take 10 seconds to read the first sentence? You knew it was in Warsaw you gave advice about the hotel rooms in Warsaw. Just give us links of you playing so we can actually believe anything you say
his audition room posts are pretty good, I gotta say! and the photo galleries don't show names, so if he didn't win :/ Let's not have a dispute about this one guy please?? It's getting to the point where people who don't know anything about the Warsaw competition are on here to argue (which includes me, unfortunately).And I am the "florestan eusebius" user who commented on literally every Chopin Competition video! (Though I'm pretty sure @oldrabit you've gotten so many [well-deserved] compliments on your videos that you probably don't remember everyone's usernames )
How did it go? @pianorahrah
