Really good stuff, Koji. Inspiring.

Must be awesome playing with an orchestra...

Oh my...

Nice work, Koji, but who's the orchestra? Sounds like you gave the strings a run for their money!

Explendid!
It reminded me a lot of the performance by Claudio Arrau (A bit faster). Very good phrasing and nuances. The orchestra did a pretty good job too.
Congratulations!

Thanks for listening; I have the whole thing, but this was the only movement that fit without compression. Was kind of a pickup group out in Michigan, but they didn't do too bad a job (at least the horn player was decent, heh).

Incredible playing. One of my dreams is to do what you've done here.

wow thanks for uploading the 2nd movement. Like i said about the 4thmvt., it's awesome. Very confident performance, and the music really comes alive in your interpretation.

Basically, it's f***'in wicked, if a 22 year old rapper/pianist's opinon is what you seek.

Yes, wow. Of course I loved the fourth movement, but I must admit the second movement is quite easily one of my favorite concerto movements of all time, so needless to say I'm a bit biased.

Excellent performance.

How did you get the concerto gig?
