  • @FrankenBosey Played this a couple of years ago...forgot how good it sounded. Of course, I played it like an amateur compared to that. Great dynamics, expression, everything!

  • @chairmobile  Thank you for the good words. Glad you enjoyed it.

  • im playing this song on friday for nyssma. i love it =]

  • Thanks for the comment and good luck on your performance.

  • I like it more soft but its nice for the ear to hear it on that great piano.

  • Well, have you ever tried jumping on a spruce naked? I don't think "spruce" is soft.

  • I dont know the piece too much, Im playing it right now by the very knowledge I know about Sibelius. In anycase Ill keep your comment in mind and try otther ways.

  • Well, that was just my impression about the subject of the piece. Not the music of Sibelius. I feel that this spruce ought to be rather a monumental figure in a Nordic forest, than a larch or a Christmas tree.

  • Yes it's symboling a big spruce standing in the Finnish wildernes at winter time (for what I have unterstood). I like this song also a bit more soft and slower.

    But this is stil good playing. I couldn't play better.

  • Beautiful. Have you ever heard of Barcarola op 24 No. 10? I would like to hear it. Can you play it?

  • I don't have a copy of Op. 24. But I've put it on my to-get list. Thanks. -f

  • It's a long while since I listened to this. It strikes me as being as beautiful as ever. E

  • Thank you Elaine. I read that Philip Ramey once told Copland he considered Howard Hanson an "American Sibelius". Copland responded, "You flatter Hanson". -f

  • He must be an 'American thing'...

  • Who's Hanson?

  • He was a composer, a contemporary of Copland, Piston, Britten and others active during the first half of the 20th century.

  • Sibelius (1865-1957) was an almost exact contemporary of Richard Strauss (1864-1949). He composed most of his big works between 1890 and 1924, the year of his seventh symphony. After that he wrote very little.

  • Beautiful phrasing and use of rubato

  • Thank you. I sometimes think it's a little much in places, but I get a lot of compliments on it. (I wish the Sibelius set weren't so distorted, but we're working on that part for future vids.) F-
