ashthelefty: one of the pieces that I ultimately wanna
learn, upon Hungarian rhapsody No.2 by Liszt and
Invention number 13 by Bach. :)
SuperJapanesefreak: Frederic's pieces are so unlike others, you
don't need to think of anything and his songs
will reach your heart and give you his exact
feeling that he was feeling at that moment. This
piece made me so sad and happy. I didn't think
it I felt it. :/ <3 Chopin
MDkid1: Chopin was often referred to as the "poet of
the piano"....I think we can figure out why!
Excellent playing! :)
Mongo1940: Put yourself in a room with someone you love who
is close to death. What are your feelings? What
are your thoughts? It is sadness for the coming
loss of love, the memories of joyous times
interspersed with the coming fate. Near the end,
there is the ascending tempo of a eternal future
of hope when love will be replenished forever,
followed by the feeling of grief at the moment..
Chopin's composition and your playing captures
all of this. That is as much as a person can
do.
mycketsmartnamn: Your playing and interpretation of this and
other pieces is really great! You capture the
essence and true soul of the pieces, and play
them wonderfully.
OriginalBasaliskos: The purpose of a sonata is to contrast the
middle section with the themes already presented
in the exposition...
sf364: lol, u r an ass dude....
darkshadyfigure: Um, alrighty then . . ..
Great job on this piece man.
diasdm: The niddle section gives me a impression of
memories, like missing someone you loved...
Markohoppis: The intro with the famous motif imitates
emotionally detachment, denial, and repressed
emotions. It gives you that trudging through
gloomy life with your head down feeling— too
grief stricken, tired, and reserved to express
those emotions that loom just beneath the
surface of consciousness.
1:14 ends the denial, and an influx of emotions
fractures the gossamer firmament that once
fettered the feelings captive. Tears flood the
cheeks, the face flushes red, and the true pangs
of grief manifest.
cubusdk: When I started playing this piece some months
ago I also had a problem with the middle section
finding it somewhat boring. But in the end I
came to like the section so much that I even
play the repetitions in that part...
raamsis: :(

Toxxic88: Fantastic *****
