This is a splendid performance of chopin's Heroic Polonaise by Rafal Blechacz. The other recording on youtube has an annoying man speaking for 3 minutes in the beginning. I have cut it and uploaded only the playing. Enjoy.

The clarity of the playing is astonishing.. So many lesser pianists muddle those marvelous ascending runs, losing the notes. Here, all is crystalline and intense. The ascending scales sound as scales, not avalanches, really soar, and we are driven along with them. It is lightning before thunder here. Bravo.
@retrogamerdave36210 жыл бұрын
the reason for applying pedal during those passages is to get a fuller volume. I enjoy the clarity, but I think that playing it pedaled is a valid choice and I want others to understand why I think so. Honestly, the specific piano would dictate whether or not I would choose to use pedal during that passage. The fact of the matter is that on a well-regulated Steinway concert grand that even if one was to pedal the scalar passages that the sound would still come out pretty clear..just not 100%

Ole Frederic Francois Chopin wrote all that “elevated rhapsodic soul music” the likes of which sets him quite over and above most other of the pianistic poets. The ancient Greeks would surely have loved his Heroic Polonaise and given him the laurel leaf crown of distinguished achievement. This pianist takes this rhapsody to the heights of “Fire and Ice”giving it a personal stamp and visceral message which resonates from head to toe. He certainly earned the gold in the Chopin competition of 2005; to set the bar of pianism up to the planets and stars. This is one of the most exciting renditions yet. PWG

This is the piece, when as a child, I would hear just the main theme and had beautiful conniptions. I didn’t even know who Chopin was, now I know I share his birthday. I have said that this confluence gives me a special insight into his musical psyche. When I composed lyrics to one of his etudes some years ago; as I wrote them I felt the inner aura of “The Golden Filo” as I literally wrote that “I knew not what”. The lord inspired me to achieve a message far beyond my natural experience. So, you never know how things will turn out! I tell people regularly “brother Green will continue to SING HIS SONG. Peace and blessings, PWG
