[VIDEO] "Embraceable You" Gershwin/Wild - Live Performance

on: March 03, 2022, 08:22:53 PM

Hey everyone,

This performance is from a while back. I decided to get over myself and upload performances I may not have been perfectly happy with at the time... I think the pandemic encouraged me to take certain things less seriously

The Earl Wild transcriptions of Gershwin songs are quite special, and while not exactly the usual vibe one is accustomed to with these songs, they are exciting displays of pianism.

Hope you and enjoy, and feedback is always appreciated.

Gorgeous, shimmering arpeggios! Only a couple very minor imperfections that did not distract from the enjoyment. Great show piece!
