Anton Nel - Sibelius "Romance"

[Brockett122]

Ah! The kitten on the keys. Capital!

[PianoPlayer5155]

Very good interpretation! Loved it.



[LongDriveChamp03]

Loved that cadenza

[ipla10s]

WOW. Now THAT'S a cadenza. Lol i'm lucky if I can play it half that fast.

[yourforte]

Really beautiful.

[bendere2]

Does this piece have a different name? What is the opus #? I'm having difficulty finding it, with all of the Romances in the world.

[lleeaannnnee1]

op. 24

[megannarvey]

@bendere2 Its Opus 24 No 9

[AbigaleNunevHoltz]

Kind of annoyed at the videographer that chose to spend some of his time at Mr. Incredible, instead of the incredible @ the keys...but wowed, nonetheless :)

[buffalocrotch]

yeah, my thoughts exactly, I think the camera man has severe ADD

[GaryPansey]

What a Masterpiece! What a great Artist!

Bought about 20 lbs of very old sheet music at a garage sale about 2 weeks ago. This piece was in it. Never heard it before in my life. Tried to play it, and I was mesmerized by Sebelius! I just had to find someone who could play this. Thank you Anton Nel. You definitely made not only my day, but my week!

[767Jordan]

WOW! My brother is going to graduate school there this fall and he's going to take lessons from him.

[RandomPenguinAttack]

Oh wow!! He was my judge at State Solo and Ensemble last year... I played a Chopin Nocturne for him, and I can see that he has impeccable taste, which makes that Division One all the more sweet :D

[ADVERTlSEMENT]

very humble beginning of the movie there...

[katdelre]

Very well done! I played this song in the mid 90's while majoring in music at college. I played it a bit slower, but has always been one of my favorites to learn. I've never heard of Anton Nel, but he makes playing this song seem effortless!

[TheDeLi]

Nice pants =P

But well done, one of the best I've seen on YouTube

[buffalocrotch]

Love it, brilliant, I started to learn this piece in the mid 80's and I never finished it, maybe I will pick it up again.

[estorm08]

I love this song. You played it really fast for what its supposed to be played, but still its one of the best ive seen on youtube as far as the technicality of the fast parts go. good job!

[machikna411]

I am simply in awe. You play this piece so beautifully that words cannot explain!

[whiteroses23]

watch those fingers fly!

[DRMS7888]

Fantastic playing, I'm contemplating whether to buy the CD of one of your recitals just for this piece.

[Skryabinist]

I love those little figures of Mozart and Beethoven! =D

Also very nice playing.

[healthdoctor]

Anton Nel, You have mouth-watering talent. I heard you last night here in Bakersfield playing Shumann and Ravel. What wonderful, inspiring playing. This piece was your encore piece and my students said it was the best. Thanks so very much for sharing your talent.

[lawrughh]

mouth-watering?

thats an interesting way to put it.

[noscrusir]

I had a class in that very music building.. it was a pain trying to walk there within the 10 minutes between classes. Beautiful playing!

[tnichols321]
