Aaaaah Thank you so much for a GLORIOUS interpretation of this final movement. Never heard it performed like this, EVER. It's no longer mechanical, you make it flow and ebb and explode as Ginastera meant it to. BRAVISSIMO !!!!!

The ukrainian contestant that I was observing at the ongoing Jose Iturbi International Music Competition played this piece superbly, however, I believe SALVOSA conducted it with a deeper emotion; and SALVOSA has a better understanding of this difficult piece.

You're welcome. Just one more thing: be careful with your opening measures. if you look at the score, notice that there are no accents on the lowest notes of the left hand (A, D. E). I'm not sure if they are purposeful or accidental on your part, but you tend to accent them. Besides not being written that way, accenting those notes robs the music of the driving rhythm that Ginastera wanted, giving it a character that is too heavy.

Thanks so much for the great advice. I really appreciate it.
A beautiful interpretation, very personal. I hear new things in the piece. The slow intro and long pauses may not be in the score - I could tell you love playing it, and the excitement made me love to listen. Maybe recording quality but parts sounded a little murky in the pedal. I had to stop and play the 1:00-1:01 transition many times, it brought a smile. Maybe not the lilt of Spanish dance but the joy of performance. It moves me more than any other recording of this.

@gilsub : Thank you so much for your very kind words. Yes I do love this piece, i have since shelved this piece but I am wanting to relearn it and perform it again. This music moves me tremendously and I can feel my Spanish roots spring out while playing this piece. Thanks for listening and stopping by.
