Written by Liszt, after a piece by Chopin. Is it based on a Polish Folk Song? I find this piece dreamy and meditative.

  • I watched this vid a lot when I was studying this piece. Very nice indeed!

  • It is a lovely piece indeed. I've improved it quite a bit. Haven't yet heard your recording, but my guess is that you have handily surpassed my amateur efforts. If I've played a small part in popularizing this little gem, I'm happy.

  • I used to play this piece. It is beautiful, technically advanced and pretty much unknown,which makes it even better in terms of forming a repertoire and surprising an audience. Your interpretation is very beautiful.

  • Thank you, skycastles. I've worked on it quite a bit, and I will record another 'take' when I get some technical recording matters taken care of.

  • When you post the next recording, please let me know.

  • I will, skycastles79. I've livened it up quite a bit, and I added an original flourish at the end (ala Rosenthal).  I changed some melody phrasing, too, to match a lovely vocal recording of the original song I found here. I'm waiting to get some technical changes in place to make recordings that are perhaps a little better quality.

  • have you just finished studying this? It's marked "Quasi allegretto", quite fast for a nocturne-type piece. on the contrary, your hands have very good position for someone who hasn't take any formal lessons. how long did it take you to study this? i'm reading it now as my new assignment, and those chromatic thirds make me nervous seeing them all around.

  • I'll see if I can find that, arwena. Thanks very much.

  • What I hear in this piece is the motive from Polish Pastorale, carol, from XVIII century, very popular nowadays as well, called" Lulajże Jezuniu" moja perełko. Translated: "Sleep little Jesus" my little pearl. It is a beautiful carol, one of my favourite.You may listen to it on YT. Greetings,

  • Thanks for you frank comment, joe. I agree with you. My position might be a little different from yours: I have had a few teachers, and I loved them-- especially the first two, Doris Theall and Harry Whittemore. It's not that I use YouTube as a substitute teacher. But at 58, I play just for the personal fun, and YouTube is a nice way to share and get reactions. Do you teach? Do you play?
