William Kapell: Mazurka in C major, Op. 67, No. 3 (Chopin)

[fredericfranc]

...this is a kind of a "superficial" mazurka, but it is extremely well known...so Mr.K. can't really chill it out too much...but he gets some unusual voicing in, anyway...

He reminds me a little of Emil Gilels. Thank you for posting this great piece.

Magnificent clarity for a 1951 recording.

Learning this song. I love it so much. It's so sad that it only has 363 views. ^_^

That's a good thing! After all, no ridiculous remarks. I like being able to find at least some solitude in listening to real music; let the popular idiots listen to their noises and shrieks which they have the audacity to call "music". This piece contains the essential elements of not only the romantic style, but of the brilliant technical and auditory conventions which define music. So who cares how many people have seen this page? It doesn't change the caliber of the music.

@iHateAmericanCinema haha I suppose so. ^^ I agree. I mean, I hate most of the music on most of my good friend's ipods. All that synthesized pop stuff when you can tell the singers really can't even sing live, that really annoying heavy metal that has so much awful chords and screaming you can't even hear any real notes... bleh. Or maybe it's just the fact that they listen to pop-stuff and rock but refuse to listen to anything else. Then I listen to this and sigh. :)
