My current favorite piece, and honestly this is the best interpretation I’ve heard like, ever

This is one of the most beautiful performances I’ve ever seen. The sound of that piano is so rich and full I wish my keyboard could sound like that.

this is one of my favorite pieces and I just have to say that it was beautifully executed, love the expressiveness in this rendition

What can I say? You caress the music so sensitively that I CAN hear words right through the 'song' like beautiful, gorgeous, excellent and most importantly this is the best soothing ear balm there can be for tired ears. Bravo!

Sherlock Holmes played it at Watson's request ! "I see that I have alluded above to his powers upon the violin. These were very remarkable, but as eccentric as all his other accomplishments. That he could play pieces, and difficult pieces, I knew well, because at my request he has played me some of _Mendelssohn’s Lieder,_ and other favourites. When left to himself, however, he would seldom produce any music or attempt any recognized air." (A Study in Scarlet)

素晴らしい表現力ですね。　私はMozart, Chopin　をこよなく愛し、彼らの曲ばかりひいていました。　はじめて、メンデルスゾーンを弾いてみたいと私に思わせたのが、この曲です。”一目ぼれ”　ならぬ、”一耳ぼれ”でした。しかし、手が小さい事から先生に「あなたの手ではちょっと厳しい。」と言われてしまいました。　それで、今はまたMozart の　Sonata　を練習していますが、あきらめられないので、近い将来、この曲を弾きます。途中まで練習した感じでは出来そうな気がしたんですけれどね～　海外に住む、65歳の Piano player　です。 PikaPianist　さんの演奏は好きです。　J. Field　のノクターンのアレンジ、いいですね。

Excellent voicing, especially in measures 32 - 35. Those measures have been a stumbling block for me in learning this piece. Any advice?

@MXChan 2 жыл бұрын

Thank you! It's hard to give advice through just writing though. I would normally just do slow practice emphasising the melody and do staccato on the accompanying triplets (to tell your fingers that they are supposed to be soft). After a few repetitions switch back to legato again and they should come out super soft underneath the melody. :)

@Assassunn 5 жыл бұрын

I like your performance very much, but why does the piano sounds out of tune ? Is it a microphone recording or a VST plugin with a special preset ? please!

@MXChan 5 жыл бұрын

This is the built in sound of the Kawai CS6, with reverb added, and recorded directly onto USB. Probably sounds a little off because this is a blend of two built in sounds of the Kawai digital

Can be better . More tension . Some notes should play as upbeat , but u drop it . Peace.

@dhamma9306 10 жыл бұрын

I love the songs you play on your Kawai, however sometimes the sound of your piano, due to the exaggerated amount of reverb you added is a bit disturbing. Can you find yourself in this?
