Chopin-Ballade No. 4

[freeqwerqwer]

Her tone, dynamics, and phrasing are artful but her tempo could have been more steady. That artistry indicates she comes from Chopin's home region, perhaps Russia.

Beautiful playing! Thanks so much!

Beautiful playing. Nice sound for Chopin. Her interpretation commands the listener's attention, which is a mark of a good artist. However, she seems to have difficulties prolonging the long lines in this piece. There are times that certain phrases sounded stitched together, making them sound not completely satisfying. Also, she makes physical movts that sometime do not reflect the music. And whenever she does, she misses notes. Overall, it was a fine performance of a very difficult piece.

cut is because of youtube timing 10 min long, and this is over a little bit, sos sorry, I had to cut...

[roystenstrom]

I believe youtube has extended their video lengths. Would love to hear the ending someday! She was my teacher back in grad school ccm in late 90's

hi

it's not only that you cut it : you cut it IN THE MIDDLE and you pasted both parts without any reason

I think it's a pitty because I personnalyI find this interpretation very intense, full of emotion and strength, and I'd very much like to hear the whole piece...

do you happen to have kept the rushes, so that you can post it again with full length?

thx alot

Beautiful playing, but why the cut? Can we not get her playing the complete Ballade?

[Designertunes]

Wow! This is stunning. I have not heard her play for ages... I cannot imagine Gm being better--I'd love to hear it. Congratulations to her!

[tunesterman]

Absolutely a wonderful sound and feeling for this music. She really becomes part of the music. She does make some decisions, which I personally think just do not work. But the overall statement quite stunning.

Don't miss her Chopin Ballad No. 1 in G minor, performed 1 yaer ago. It was much better

[javlinduo]

Finally we get to see both of you playing online. Fantastic.... The artistry is superb...
