I can't believe there are 9 dislikes. Her performance was flawless and you can count on one hand the number of kids her age who can play that piece, and probably have a few fingers left over.
Wonderful to see you again pretty Umi. This is such an incredibly powerful performance that it makes tsunamis of tingles flow up my spine..Congratulations and all the very best wishes for a fantastic 2012. I hope that your transition from homeschool to traditional school hasn't been too traumatic, and that you have settled in OK. I personally can't imagine me changing back to traditional school now.
Anyhow, as always you played great and all of my family love you.
What I just heard, was so overwhelming ! Your Waldesrauschen is so near to the real windsnoice of the woods arround Vianden, where it had been very stormy during the last week. I hope that you'll have a lot of success this year with your recitals and concerts.
when and where was the video recorded? umi is a real phenomenon; it is at least as talented as list;she can play these works with ease. you hear the wind in the forest.
Bravo Umi. Your rendering is marvellous. At 11 it's great. I wish you during this year a lot of pleasure to play on piano. And very much success in yours recitals.
nice to follow the development of one great pianist of our time; thank you for sharing this. A beautiful interpretation of this marvellous piece, Umi!
You are so incredibly musical for your age! Your voicing is beautiful! So is your touch! Such a mature pianist for your age. God has truly blessed you!
Umi, it's great to see how you develop and improve your skills as you get older. It's fascinating to witness this, especially because it is carried by your enormous enthusiasm for music... :-)
My dear Umi, in my humble opinion, this was a very musical performance, many times pianist subordinate music to virtuosism, but you made the contrary here, you made music and used the virtuosism for music, it is a very well controlled performance, with very solid sound in vantabile, great management of sound planes, I think you have matured this piece very nicely from the first performances of it.
That is beautiful and you look lovely, but it is very hard to hear the details because, it seems, the microphone is far from the stage. Also, just to say it all, I am not thrilled with the way that piano is expressing the high Fortes. But that could be the microphone, too, I guess.
Do you have any recordings available that I could buy?
