  • I'll just say I prefer it at this speed. Faster renditions prevent my uneducated ear from truly appreciating the piece.

  • @MrShadyface Try richters version, it's fast but it's incredibly energetic. I can't hear music here. but I guess music is personal.

  • @coupcoupTV This is how Moderato meant to be played. However there are a couple of soloists to play this on as it would be Allegro. Huge mistake. That's my opinion.

  • @Omega1987 What the heck?.....Not in mine.

Relative keys share the same Key signatures but have different tonic notes. C Major is the Parallel to C minor. Parallel keys share the same tonic note, but have different key signatures. Does that help? Sorry if I offended you, never my intention.

    The pedals are usually excluded from piano renditions.
