Chopin Mazurka op. 24 n.3 Sandro Bisotti piano

[pafcio0]

I know, but now appears a question about the real art value of such interpretation which ignores STYLE, and composers directives, which he left (not only in scores).

Think about phrases in global way, not only "note-after-note".

(Sorry for my honesty, and for my english:))

STYLE with great S....I ignore it (I know it but I'm not interested in). I appreciate your honesty, especially if you are tolerant with different aestetics than yours.

Styles are thousands, STYLE is an academic convention.

PART1:

Actually, there was a time, when I thought just like you. I am a pianist too (myspace. com/pawelwakarecy) and after years of studying, reading and especially listening (my and others playing) I realised, how STYLE and TASTE is important. I realised also, that PERSONALITY and CREATIVITY aren't mutually exlusive with style. What is the idea of playing without connections with scores, exaggerating everithing, without feeling, sense of taste?

[SarrasaniPianoCircus]

without connection with poetic essence of the making music (re-inventate a world, not less than this), the connection with the score (dead paper without sense if not evoked in the life of real music) is an unuseful and boring excercise.

There are many manners to use a score, as there are many manners to use an apple. The meanings are not in the score, but in the resounding myths that the score evokes in the soul of the player.

Score is a clue of sense, not other and not more. Bye.

PART2:

It is like scrambled eggs. You are putting too much salt and pepper. Not many people like scrambled eggs with too much salt and pepper (OK, maybe there are some). But why won't you put some tomato, onion, or mushrooms? Taste would be balanced, picture full of colours, and it would smell great. In pianism there is infinity of ingridients, which can make your interpretation both full of fantasy, imagination, and also balanced and taste. And in that case, balanced doesn't mean flat.

PART3:

So, you are wrong thinking, that playing stylish means playing in boring, and predictable way. AMEN :)

[SarrasaniPianoCircus]

Thank you to explain your ideas.

That are different from mine, obviously.

Someone like no salt and pepper, some others like a certain measure of them, some others like tons of them.

My motivations to play piano are so far from the idea of academic (conventional) style.....I began again to play after a Pogorelich (a genius) concert, where I saw a poet re-constructing the world, after tons of boring type-writer pianists

as Pollini, Baremboim and many others.

[pafcio0]

I have never heard such dismembered interpretation of Chopin. Sorry, but this is Anti-Mazurka. Please, find simplicity, smoothness, dance...

[SarrasaniPianoCircus]

Thank you. I find here what I like and I try to comunicate it. if you find in this piece other things, you'll can easily find other versions that matches your tastes.

[everydaystrgglz]

I don't care for the tempo..if it sounds nice its good:) bravo :)

[Matthaeus18]

Ah thank you very much for uploading this, I've looked everywhere trying to find someone who plays it so I can get a better idea of the sounds.

And also very nicely played =)

[SarrasaniPianoCircus]

Thank you. But pay attention that usually it is played faster. Bye.

[PortateloVia]

Complimenti!

[SarrasaniPianoCircus]

Grazie. Contento che ti sia piaciuta.

[homerboy488]

Wow, you are nuts.

[SarrasaniPianoCircus]

I'm honest and transparent when I play, and When I hear another pianist, I'm more satisfied if he is "nuts" for music than he is boring. Then thank you for congratulations.

[janetfung]

-.-............crazy

[SarrasaniPianoCircus]

By a statistical point of view you are right.

But this tempo match perfectly my conception of this music (relaxed and solemn, a little hypnotic), and does not contrast any Chopin indication here.

Thank you fro feedback.

[Kelimu]

why choosing such a slow tempo?
