  • who says that a slower movment makes it less exciting? I think this this movment is very exciting...

  • Very beautiful piece! First time I heard this. Superbly and sensitively played with great feeling by Dang Thai Son (never heard him before but will now search for more of him)

    Thank you Magicflute 1510 a lot for posting this !!! Would love to hear your Chopin too!!

  • I have goosebumps listening to this - even on some low profile headphones.

  • slower movements are my favorites. they transport you far and away.

  • He's the winner of "Vietnam's Got Talent"!

  • his music is reaching into the depth of soul. Not showy but simply beautiful and very effective. What a true musician!!

  • The first 3 notes of the 2nd mvt. opening theme are the first 3 notes of the E major scale - a dead giveaway. Cute trivia: the closing theme of the 2nd mvt. is a slow and ethereal B-E-D#-A. Sir Arthur Sullivan (of Gilbert & Sullivan) quotes it directly in Yeomen of the Guard (Elsie's obbligato in How Say You Maiden Will You Wed a Man About to Lose His Head?). Not surprising - Sullivan spent 3 years at the Leipzig conservatory as a Mendelssohn scholar.

  • @MrCodontrenmang Sorry, it's in E major, although there is an occasional minor key cadence.

  • Who cares about E-minor or G-minor? It's just simply exciting !

  • From now on, I will spend more time listening to symphony. Really peaceful! Cheer Dang Thai Son!

  • i'm so proud of being VietNamese !!

  • And I like how non-showy Mr. Son is.
