Thank you very much!
If you like this beautiful piece of music, you might also like some other pieces I put onto Youtube.
Enjoy your practising, but I hope you'll find your own vision and interpretation.
Success!
Geert Dehoux.

This is a great piece for piano, i love the sound off it. I have actually found the piece which goes for the flute to. At the moment im studying it, the contrast between the flute and piano is quite shocking when it starts changing key. I'm playing this song on my flute for my exam :D <3

Bubbling water might evoke arpeggios but a water lily is usually seen in still water ponds so the solid almost inaudible chords as written do it for me. MacDowell knew his way around nature and we should be hearing more of his work. His poems aren't too shabby either.

Interesting about the chords.
Actually, I prefer to play arpeggios, because - in my opinion - they just sound better.
Let's not forget in MacDowell's era performing musicians had much more freedom in using the written scores than they have now. I consider myself a more 'old-fashioned' interpreter than a 'modern' performer.
A cordial greeting,
Geert Dehoux.

Like the other pieces I've heard you play on YouTube, you play with great soul and feeling (though perhaps a tad slow for my taste, but as you say, there's no "right or wrong," but a matter of interpretation). By the way, I don't have the sheet music for Woodland Sketches - should those chords be arpeggiated, say if I don't have a large "wingspan?" Warmest regards!

Hi, again.
A few days ago, I heard this lovely piece played by the great Australian musician/pianist/composer Percy Grainger.
Nice to hear Grainger, who belongs to 'the old school', preferred to arpeggiate the chords, as well!
Regards,
Geert.
