Thanks for all the positive comments and constructive criticism on my playing. I really appreciate it :-)

At a later point I may upload my exam concert, which will be video taped. I'll see how it goes first :-)

[poelsefingre]

Thanks :-) You should play it sometime. I think you'd do it nicely.

[JohannezBrahmz]

[poelsefingre]

Thanks :-)

[nyamukdbd]

nice job..

u did pretty well =)

[poelsefingre]

Thanks. I'm hammering the piano a bit too much a couple of places, but otherwise I'm quite pleased with it :-)

[Starbirdy9999]

Sounds like a professional like Richter played it. Great work.

[conversegrlsgonewild]

Woa. Before I read the description I thought a pro recorded thats why I was about to ask who performed it. lol This is really good :D great job indeed

[77becka]

Lovely.

a little banging, and not quite the feeling I was looking for.... but other than that, nice job.

[jeffg2020]

Very nice job. The only suggestions I'd make are: a bit bangy in some of the loud bits (as others mention). Also, in some of the soft parts w/ the repeated chords, it's occasionally sounds a bit chord-by-chord, a bit notey, if that makes sense. Otherwise great.

[babysteinway]

@poelsefingre ur right, it sounds more like "fff" at "ff" places. I am sure you know what Assez doux, mais d'une sonority large means. You should be pleased with yourself, wonderful recording, i wish it was a video of your hands at least. Good luck with teaching :)

[SuperLailasantos]

Wonderful!I never heared this music at the piano...you make her even more beautiful!

[ozzyslush]

Very nice... easily just as good as the version I've been listening to in my car lately. So I noticed you're planning to be a music teacher, which implies you're fairly experienced. How much background would you suggest before trying to tackle this piece? I try to be realistic about the things I try to tackle, but I do probably get overly ambitious sometimes.... about 3 years playing, the last 6 months or so with actual lessons...

ohh.. I like the photo, can you send this to me or show me where you have it from? ... and of course your play gorgeous too ^^

@jordanilyilyn The recording it a little bit messed up though. It contains some random clicking sounds. I made sure it was not my computer by rewinding the video and the sound occurs in the same spot. For example, go to second 0:38 and listen through to 0:42. But other than that it is absolutely beautiful and I wish I could like the video more than once. Lol

[jordanilyilyn]

All the other video's of this piece are either played too slow or too quick. You play it beautifully.
