You guys are all talking about correct height, posture, etc...
Did you notice that this guy is performing a solo? He doesn't have to match anyone else. His posture is apart of the music. I can guarantee that, with chops like that, this musician has gone through all the studies of posture, played more scales than he can remember, etc.
I've never played this piece before, but it seems to me that this performer doesn't miss a beat. He looks like he has total control. Great job with musicality!

I'm a freshman in college learning this piece and it is hard..... I can barley play half of it at like 1/3 of the tempo.... this is a great recording of the piece though

Great performance. This solo looks like a better workout than ZUMBA. Lol

wow this is definatly one of the best videos of this ive seen.
i just started working on this today, and im having alittle trouble getting the base line played smoothly, just wondering...about how long did it take to learn this piece to the extent you played it in this vedeo?

Thanks a lot,
I did that performance about two years ago, so I'm not sure how long did I practice it but as I can remember it was like few months or so.
