think you did a great job on it :) ThU

AvidHobbyist: you do not know how to strike the keys for a
proper legato tone! connect the notes and
don't bang on them.
Eorzean: then my comment still stands.
mariusfelix: Everybody has the right to say everything,
espacially on youtube...
marginallymental: I mean the second part especially---it's ALL
fine!
marginallymental: I think the second half of this here is
really fine--very expressive, especially for an
electric piano.
Mozart61: Playing this piece on such an instrument is
throwing away your nice work on it.....
Eorzean: only brahms has the right to say that.
tgruy: Lovely rendition! I don't care what kind of
piano it is played on, it sounds wonderful!
Thank you so much for sharing this with us!
You are very talented.
KCOtutti1: I understand, ofcourse. But when you present
yourself on the net, it might be a good idea to
do it on a grand piano. Try to see it this way:
if his playing wouldn't have made such a great
impression nobody would have bothered to
react... I'm sure that when you're this talented
that there will be somebody around you ( or
maybe in a school of music ? ) that will let you
make a recording/film of your playing. Sometimes
a small desicion can make a huge difference for
the rest of your life.
Nickthejedi1: KCO, I can't afford a grand piano. Should I even
bother to play this on an electric piano? All
I have is a $100 keyboard from Costco, it's all
I can afford. What do I do!
Nickthejedi1: No to you sir! I thought this was a great
interpretation.
Just because a man cannot afford or cannot have
a grand piano means he cannot play whatever he
wants?? So much for passion! So much for
personal emotion and interpretation!
KCOtutti1: Now, make a new recording and this time be
sure that the sound synchronises with the images
and, most important of all, find yourself a nice
Steinway to play on and don't insult the music
AND your talent with an electric piano.
Mozart61: This isn't a piece to be played on electric
piano!
No,just this no!
marmasiotis: Go and by a real piano, you deserve it (and
Brahms too)
wxy5183: so gental,with a little sad..
I love it
paytoplaynj: Beautiful playing man!
Maratini: One of my favorite piano pieces. I have several
versions - Neuhaus, Rubenstein, Gould,
Pogorelich - and this gentleman does a fine
job!
xcolossians3x: You play beautifully, sir.
Jauhara: outta sync.
docdicey: I can't believe how judgmental you are -- "this
pianist doesn't feel beauty..." And how do
you know? Plus, maybe this pianist can't afford
a grand piano. What a bunch of snots....
freeqwerqwer: This pianist doesn't feel beauty so why play the
piano?
elieltanr: dont slam your fingers down, feel the keys.
practise legato without pedal.
