I'm playing this song. It's so beautiful! I love piano. I don't think I was gifted for it but I play for more then 2 hours if I can! This is so beautiful, I say again!
it starts sadly...in the middle it's a little more optimistic....but it ends sadly, again ....i found that ...interpretation of my life. ups and downs. but, again, ends are always bitter and sad.
The scenes where it was used, outside on the grounds, were so moving in their contast with the suffocating interiors. Especially the final scene, which is affirming and heartbreaking.
Thank you so much for following the original. For this piece, I don't like it when pianists interpret it in their own way too much. Just can't stand it.
This is one of the most beautiful pieces i know, it is the one piece that never seems to fail to move me deeply. It makes me think alot about Chopin and his life because in my opinion their is no other piece that better expresses his feelings as a human being and artist. It expresses a mixture of deep sadness and pensivness from a very sensative and kind person that he was.
Life follows a trajectory, be it protozoa, human or galaxies. We are born, grow to that peak moment, and then slowly unwind back to where we started. Here art does its best to imitate life. Chopin wants us to feel the human drama. The piece is born on soft notes and builds to climax at 2:56 where you sense the ultimate struggle. From there the sweet surrender of middle years as the piece unwinds. Finally, this glorious piece resolves in the exact notes upon which it was born. Beautiful.
I must admit that I would never have been able to express that sentiment so wonderfully well as you just do it. Ivsiii, you have the soul of a musician and the thought of a poet. Marvellous.
Wonderful... God guide us to feel the music.. music is something really divine... and chopin was really bless with that God's wonderful magical sound and power of the music.
For me and without ant doubt, not only the best Chopin Mazurka I heard in youtube. The best I heard in all my life! Extraordinary! Such a sound so sublim!
Hello Michel, after you reply as for Flyght of Bumble Bee I listend your performances. This Mazurka a-moll is my favorite work of Chopin. I always tryed to imagine, how would Chopin play that. And now I have heard that! Really warm, nostalgic, and from heart.

Of all Chopin´s mazurka I heard here this the most interesting. The pathos with his rubato and the intention of Chopin are there.

Of all the versions I found here, this is by far the most beautiful, haunting and melancholy. I think it best captures the pathos Chopin intended.
