  • Is this easier or harder than Doctor Gradus Ad Parnassum?

  • Technically, the have very different challenges. Voicing in the Snow is Dancing is harder to control, and their are some difficult polyrhythms. But it's not as fast as Dr Gradus Ad Parnassum, so it depends on your technique.

  • How old are you?

  • she is 9 now, will turn 10 in march

  • It must be wunderful to breath the timeless beautifulness of this music in such a young age.

  • And it's a breath of fresh air to hear some positive feedback! Thanks for your nice comments!

  • @tadabe12345678 I just said it. 13, the lucky number.

  • @folkflutist  and how old are you again??

  • nice. I'm thirteen, and have attempted this, and I can say, that this is very difficult in keeping it quiet, keeping all of those alternating notes and such in perfect timing, while accenting certain notes just enough so that they shine through with clarity, and not making them too loud, but just above a whisper. Very good.

  • Vraiment magnifique :o

  • This piece is hard...Anna, you're good!!!!!

  • wowwww Great playing what an awesome talent for one so young, I hope she keeps practising she will be a professional musician

  • One more question, how much pedal did Anna use with this one? My edition (Alfred) says not to pedal unless indicated but I just can't get it to sound good without. I think it still sounds like snow with pedal. Thanks!

  • Wow! Some seriously amazing moments in this performance. The gliss at 1:38 is just perfect.
