5:15.......is that in the score?

[kriista]

hehe nope. That's the end of the first movement, and the only chance I had to warm my freeeeezing hands.

[Verdegrand]

Yeah I have to concur with what the others have commented. Learning such a piece by heart is an extremely challenging task. Very impressive performance.

Fantastic. I had never heard Takemitsu before this video. I'm glad to have heard it for the first time played by you. Brilliant musicianship. I wish you went to my school so I could get you to play one of my compositions, hehe.

such a nice piece, very well done! a pity, that the piano isn't too well in tune...

[memmett251]

I don't like the piece that much, to be honest. But clearly such great musicianship and piano playing.

Brilliant!

god, this is bloody sensual piano playing. Absolutely haunting. 5/5
