Why is this the only video of a real pianist playing gymnopedie? Isn't it one of the most beautiful piece? By the way 5 stars for Aldo's perfect interpretation.
This piece is the first one I've ever learned to play many months ago cause I thought it's very simple yet only the great pianinsts like Ciccollini can make it as delightful. I can only imagine how much practice and how great talent it takes to play it like that. Since I have heard this interpretation I started to practice this piece again for hours and hours, hoping that one day I can put as much magic in it as Ciccolini did. Johnnyzing I am looking forward to hear your version.
interesting.....I thought it was a bit quick too...but his touch kept the legato magic. Only the best can do that. I've done that movement with, believe it our not, Piano and Tubular Bells. I'll be posting it soon. It worked.

and so beautifully, thoughtfully read by Ciccolini.... with just the right hesitancy and falling away of sound....
Merci
