Notice : Thaikovsky liked Chopin and he even has a work named 'Un poco di Chopin'.

I heard the orchestral version of this many times when I was a kid in the early nineties. I never knew what it was called or who composed it and it literally haunted me my whole life. Then I happen to hear you play this, and suddenly I realized that this was piece I'd been searching for. It's the piece I heard as a child that I searched for in vain. Thanks so much.

To say that Tchaikovsky wasn’t a composer for the piano would be absolute nonsense; his works for the instrument are subtle and not very virtuoso, but expressive and beautiful.

Now, I do not in any way know you on a personal level, but having a beautiful wife and daughter, having mastered the art of playing piano both skillfully and emotionally, and being an excellent artist, I'd say, that you have succeeded tremendously in life. I can tell that you love what you do, just as I love what I do. So glad I found your channel. Hope you're having a wonderful day.

Such expressive playing. I felt each marking on the page in your playing. That coupled with your rubato and attention to phrasing/balance, make this one of the more enjoyable recordings I’ve heard in some time. Bravo!

Breathtaking. Beautiful performance.

Tchaikovsky is the highest selling Classical Composer of all time . Melodic Maestro . Fun Fact .

Sad... but It's so beautiful

I like that you have the music on top as you play...it makes the experience even better!

This piece can really make you teary.

This piece of art makes me feel something no other piece ever made me feel.

Bravo, Paul! Listening to this while watering my garden this morning has culminated into quite a cathartic experience. The end result being that I'm left with a renewed sense of vigor and interest to seize the day. Thank you for the motivation! Cheers

It takes time to learn a piece, but skill to preform it....this guy sure has that talent I mean...wow

OMGOSH! OMGOSH! OMGOSH! Why have I never heard this before? I LOVE that unexpected ending! He must have had a very heavy heart the day he wrote this piece! I've got to do this piece!

never have I been so in love with someone's hands before

I swear, we have exactly the same taste... This has always been one of my favorites. Especially since even a relatively bad sight reader like me can still read it directly from sheet music. It's nice to be able to play a beautiful piece any time without having to study it. Tchaikovsky actually has several good pieces for that (another example would be June Baracrolle from the Seasons). Great playing as always! Keep it up.

I've played this through a few times as I'm a reasonable grade 8 sight reader, then listen to you.....and the whole piece makes sense! Thank you Paul for all your videos.

Excellent performance, bringing true musicality to the "dots on the page."

Tchaikovsky is a great composer! more than just Swan lake as we know of. I love his solo piano music. And great demonstration here!

Thank you Mr. Barton for uploading your video! I truly appreciate it. Your video's inspired and helped me to discover new pieces and challenge myself to play new pieces! I thank you for all the effort that you put into each video which not only helps piano players like us through your form of playing the piano with a visible sheet music, but you also provide us with free links to the sheet music which not all youtubers provide to us! I cannot express how thankful I am and I applaud each video you make! Bravo!

Oh wow. I’ve always heard this song performed as a violin concerto. I’ve never heard a solo version for the piano. Now I’m excited that this is something I might actually be able to play! Thank you, this is amazing ☺️

Блестящее исполнение произведения великого композитора! Хочется слушать и слушать! Восторг! Браво!

One of your finest performances, sir.

Lovely pieces like this are why I love playing the piano. 😊

The most Chopinesque piece by Tchaikovsky I’ve ever heard.

What a beauty, to mix melancholy into a 3/4 dance... odd and eloquent metaphor for Tchaikowsky's own frustrated loves perhaps....

Gobsmacked. Wow. I'm postponing work just to learn this piece. Your playing is truly inspiring and the notation makes it perfect to follow. In effect, you're a fantastic teacher without having to say a word. I'm fortunate that I read music, and the synchro of the notes with your playing makes it easy to follow. Tchaikovsky was nothing short of a sheer genius - and you have made it that so much easier to even attempt to follow! I'm on a mission.. Thanks for sharing this!

Incredible, Tchaikovsky's “Waltz Sentimental” and Scriabin's Etude Op. 8 No. 12. The character is different. The melody is the same.

What a delightful waltz, light, frivolous and airy! Beautiful! Thank you:)

4:49 - stunning - I had no idea that piece existed. And you can really hear T's style in that piece. wow-yes.

This reminds me a lot to Chopin. Beautiful peace of music. But I also adore tschaikovskys unique style. Paul, again your skills leave me breathless. Very well played!

Paul, thank you for everything you sharing with us. Merci beaucoup

A splendid interpretation, amazing work Paul!

How I love Tchaikovsky! I forgot to breathe, listening to your playing.

Thanks for bringing such tunes to public notice Expands joy in our world. R

Amazing .Fascinating to watch and listen to. Beautifully played. Thank you so much

Every time I want to hear a piano piece I'm always happy to find one of your videos, Paul.

Tchaikovsky es el mayor melodista de la historia. Conmovedora belleza toda su obra.

I love your playing, Paul. What a beautiful piece, too.

oo, this is the kind of pieces I usually like. Thank you posting!! Beautiful performance as always.

Finally found it! Damn, been searching for a piano version for ages. Thanks for the sheet music, mate.

It's so beautiful. I will play it one day

Beautiful! I’m really grateful, each video I discover a new piece, that I can learn !

Je ne connaissais pas cette valse !!! Merveilleux !!! Bravo et merci !!!

wow this is a beautiful peace of work i really felt something when listening to this

This piece is so lovely.. Thank you, Paul!

Thank you for these overhead views, they are so helpful !

Waltz but feel sad and romantic... I love this piece

Didn't know this one before, thank you for playing it. Definitely a piece I will play in the near future! I really enjoyed your interpretation. The way you played the pauses and the dynamics gave it a lot of soul. Spot on and beautiful, in my opinion. :-)

absolutely beautiful!

Toute la noblesse de la Musique voyage à travers les âges et pour l'éternité .

Kind of sounds like Chopin....

Amazing. Never heard before.

I've heard a lot of piano pieces in my life , but this one moved me always ... mysteriously ...

I play a lot of the pieces that you have once played, but hopefully someday I will be able to play classical music just as great as you

Linda valsa! É um lamento que penetra bem fundo na alma!

When you’re totally in love and you don’t have any word to describe what you feel, you can listen to piano pieces of Tchaikovski, and the notes will represent exactly what you feel.

lovely, just lovely. Thanks Paul.

Amazing and also great to follow along with the notes

Paul, you’re awesome. Thanks for all these awesome videos.

Bravo! Bravo! Wonderful!! Thank you Mr. Paul Barton.

so weird that you keep posting videos of pieces I just started listening to.

Bravo, Paul !

Ах Чайковский, как же я влюблен в эту музыку. Такой простой и понятный для русского человека мотив. Чего только стоит переигранный мной альбом "Времена года"

♥️ Lindo. Amo. Meu instrumento Musical Favorito.

Beautiful! So very beautiful!

So beautiful!... I love it!... regards from Chile

Excelente ejecución e interpretación maestro Paul Barton

Remarquable ! Merveilleux. Merci. Bravo. Cordialement. Olivier F

Beautiful!! Thanks.

très belle interprétation. Bravo. On retrouve ce magnifique morceau sur le premier cd de Liana Gourdjia, violoniste internationale au talent unique ! c'est tellement beau. merci :-)

Couldn't hold the tears back.

Oh Paul, your videos are my inspiration to keep practising the piano, Its hard to get straight good at first, mostly since I study music and piano on my own.

Bellissimo !!! 😍❤️

Eine wirklich geschmackvolle Vorführung.

In the "Chopin way" ... Brillant and very mélodic valse ... One of my favorite piano work ! Sad and melancholic as a confinment time ( ! ) ...

this piece sounds soo good on flute

heard that yesterday on the radio, the violin version, so elegant and sad....

Haunting. Lovely.

Trop beau ! J'adorrrrre!

I love this piece!

Desde Lima Perú , hoy Domingo 24 de Noviembre del 2019 quiero agradecer a Paul Barton por compartir tan buenas melodías...

Thanks, so wonderful!

I would have liked to live in Tchaikovsky's time.... Just what transpired during those ages and in particular his life to inspire such great classics? There must be a reason we are still to this day drawn to their mysterious charm...

This piece is fairly easy to play, too! 😘😍

Very lovely. Thank you.

It's similar with the style of Chopin. Am II wrong?

My god. You are magnificent.

So beatiful!You are the best!!🌎🌎

Beautiful piece.

Thank you, beautiful!

Amazing interpretation again :)

just vibing to the music man

you're a lovely musician!

Incrivelmente maravilhosa está obra👏👏👏👏❤️🌹🇧🇷

Excellent Paul!

Hi Paul, I was wondering if you could play La Campanella by Liszt

Nice. Will study it, just after Chopin. Thanks.

Makes me cry

Belíssima interpretação amei muito
