[untestudio1]

reminds me of chopin op 25 no 9 as minor..

of course as far as i know, rach is one of the best player of chopin

[Gorekiller1337]

Hahaha ! Hard as hell ! But genius nonetheless !!

[nikiwonoto]

okay this piece of music sounds really COOL!!

I know it sounds VERY hard as well,..but that's where the challenge lies!

does anybody know/recommend any similar cool pieces like this??

thanks!

[Zealoleaz]

@nikiwonoto Any music by Chopin or Rachmaninov is akin to this. Try searching "Olga Kern Rachmaninov" and listen to the third concerto. She plays it beautifully.

@nikiwonoto Feux Follets, =).

[henrique1944]

I think this Prelude is a preparatory to play Feux-Follet of Liszt, or vice &verça rsrsr

to be serious, amazing performance.

[BritinIsrael]

How on Earth do you play that like he did??

I am stunned.

[KrnBenjamin]
