Chopin Nocturne Op. 48 No. 2

[plogthesmith]

Truthfully, I feel bad for the fellow who felt the need to pretend this was his performance. I mean, what possible benefit is there to such a charade? You're only an Internet moniker, Horowitz123, so what are you getting out of it? I do congratulate you on your good taste however. If you're going to steal a performance, you might as well pick a really good one...

[OrangeSodaKing]

liszt85 and larchmontmark are correct.

[OrangeSodaKing]

Fakeeeeeeeeeee. :)

[liszt85]

How cheap can one get just to be able to get more subscribers? This performance is by somebody else.. see: w  w w,piano world.com/forum/ubbthreads.php­/topics/1750188/the%20middle%2­0section%20of%20Chopin%27s.htm­l#Post1750188

[larchmontmark]

OK FOLKS, HERE YOU GO. :-)

This performance is IDENTICAL (when I say identical, I mean identical) to this one by the concert pianist named Andrei Ivanovich. (Take out the 2 spaces near the beginning of the web address.)

[larchmontmark]

OK, vhorowitz, we're calling BS. What's the story? :-)

[larchmontmark]

BTW, the reason I suspected something was because of HOW GOOD this performance is -- way, way better than we'd usually expected to find from someone who says something like "This piece took me 5 months to learn in order to get it perfect" -- not that there's anything wrong with the 5 months, just that someone this good wouldn't usually consider it any issue how long it took, plus they wouldn't say something like "get it perfect."

[BasileusR]

@larchmontmark I only see Chopin on the description, I can't see the Andrei Ivanovich you mentioned

[larchmontmark]

@BasileusR -- It's under "Artist," to the right of the description.

But the really weird thing is, I assume that whatever it says next to "Artist" was put there by whoever posted the video! (Right??) So, that would mean that this guy, who supposedly is trying to fool us, put the pianist's actual name there!

I don't get it. :-)

Anyway, I can't believe that so many people did these comments without ever suspecting that a person who wrote such a description would hardly ever really play like this.

[larchmontmark]

HEY, WAIT A MINUTE! :-)

What's the deal about Andrei Ivanovitch being the performer (he's a lot older than 25, and he's an internationally-known pianist) but you say it's by you?

[J1UHJ2UH]

Awesome!

[MaciejasPL]

Love Chopin and love your performance :)

[jecian1978]

Vladimir Horowitz is one of the greatest virtuoso pianists of the last century. I'm surprised you haven't bumped into one of the myriad of videos posted of his performances! I particularly like him, Arthur Rubinstein & Ashkenazy's interpretations of Chopin's works. I should mention Martha Algerich as well.

[Anduril000]

Lovely

[ludachris475]

Chopin shit out masterpiece after masterpiece.

[jongun92]

Your performance of this nocturne is the most beautiful I've ever heard. Amazing work! This is probably my most favorite nocturne, and you play it so wonderfully! Thank you, and keep up the good work!

[MaksutovCG]

[IrishaKonstantinovna]

Очень красиво играешь. Я так обожаю Шопэна.

[PhilipLu3]

very nice.

[sasha42196]

I agree with everyone else. Very very good. I like to hear a little more bravura in the middle but I accept your more reserved interpretation.

[mziel53]

Congratulations! Your sound of piano really sing. Melodic line is smooth and even - beautiful.

[teh1337meister]

You play this beautifully, I love the way you play the grace notes and the ending is beautful, good job. It sounds like a concert-pianist is playing, so you should be very proud of your success in this piece.

[vhorowitz123]

Thanks teh1337meister for the nice comments.

[Vesivian]

@teh1337meister Because it is, this is fake.

[vhorowitz123]

Sure.

[fongpayman123]

Can you upload some other Chopin nocturnes too?

[vhorowitz123]

Thanks, I'm 25 and have been playing the piano since I was 8 years old.

[fongpayman123]

You're awesome.  One of the best i've heard.

How old are you?
