beautiful & rather pensive sounding.

Great video! A few bum notes. (Of course I must compare with Cowell's original recording!) If you get a chance to make another video of this (perhaps with two cameras, one pointed inside the piano), and a little extra practice, it would be amazing.

Henry Cowell was yet FAG boy.

Sounds more like an autoharp than an aeolian harp.

Coucou le collège Paul Langevin.

@ChoiChrisLi now you're getting it

@szszrocks I would always like to listen to this song. It is so beautifulness -^-^-

@ChoiChrisLi That is true but it's ok. Think about it, would you want to listen to this song or get rust on your piano strings?

I THINK THIS IS GREAT!

awesome!
Wow it sound very nice! But my teacher say it is not good to touch piano string because they get rust faster from finger oils.

Thank you! Yeah, definately get permission before you do this. An alternative is using like a plastic card or something like that.

Would a guitar pick be a good choice as well?

possibly, I don't know. I just know the piano technician from my conservatoire said plastic cards (credit card style) is what he'd recommend.

Isn't it fun to play on the strings?!?! Ever since I started I always wanted to but was told not to but now I'm playing Crumb's Makrokosmos and it's awesome! Great performance btw. I think if I played this piece though I'd get tired of strumming.

It was so fun! Slightly nerve-wracking at the time though.. obvious where it goes wrong! Hope to do it again someday... thanks for the lovely comment, good luck with your performance!
