oh my ...

[pianoplayeruk]

Hamelin is probably the best pianist alive today..

extraordinary talent....

[johndoylejd]

@pianoplayeruk Without doubt!

[Burnsomatic]

Stunning.

[antoinezygfryd]

Il faut avoir une âme d'assassin pour détruire le merveilleux Chopin!

[YoelfromNL]

I wonder if I could do this with two hands xD

[PrestoTenebroso]

You can of course, but you really shouldn't. ;-)

[Marcomedina]

Isn't there one?

[Haeronthegreat]

You know what, there is!

I'm an idiot :P

[BlazikenMaster]

Goddamn it, this piano man is so fucking skilled.

F E N O M E N A L E

[ttthhheeeooo]

I´m still a little dizzy of t/his performance...

What for a greatly gifted person!

we should take him and his talent as a present,

and we gotta enjoy every of his movement to the last cranny and nook of the world!

...do I sound like a fanatic, somekinda weird guy?

Or is this only the fascination´s secondary effect?

However - I´m - as it is said in German - "baff"!

;) Thnx for uploading!;3

Holy Shit

[sweetestmocha]

Ya, my mind is pretty much blown right about now. A true phenom. WOW!

[brokenrule]

I think ...Godowsky study for the left hand only, based on Chopin etude 10/6. isn`t it? ^^;;;

[pentium1000]

yes

[FranzLiszt]

Must be a very difficult etude. Hamelin is one of the best pianists today.

[dcstudio]

well... that will give you a LH for sure. You are right, my mind is blown.

This seems to suit Hamelin better than the Liszt HR #2 performance. He's just not "bombastic" enough for Liszt. I'm not putting down his playing at all--he's awesome. I just enjoy his Chopin moreso than the Liszt.

[EmmDoubleEw]

I agree.

His liszt requires more fury. His playing is too smooth.

[emtube]

I agree, too. But if you listen to his performances of the more meditative Liszt, like Waldrauschen & Un sospiro, he really gets the full measure of the piece.

[Brianjonestown]

I don't think he ever gets anywhere close to the "full measure" of Liszt (or for that matter Brahms, Scriabin or Schumann). He's the greatest technician alive, but he plays like a 21st century Godowsky: glib parlour tricks to infinity, all roll no soul.

[Haeronthegreat]

Well, says you.

[pianoplayer85]

Hamelin is the man. These etudes are some of the most difficult in the repertoire.

[Janice040]

fantastic! :) wow:)

[frankplaysthepiano]

awesome video, except its etude op10 no6

[EmmDoubleEw]

Damn. I was hesitating. Should have checked. Thanks.
