  • I really like this piece, but find the

    middle section to be just too syrupy

    and overly sentimental. It seems oddly

    out of place with the rest of the composition, which is a grave and dark

    piece. The two juxtaposed, are complete

    opposites. Chopin rarely made a misstep,

    but did here - in my opinion.

    Anyway, as usual you play his compositions

    flawlessly. It's a great piece!

  • When I started playing this piece some months ago I also had a problem with the middle section finding it somewhat boring. But in the end I came to like the section so much that I even play the repetitions in that part...

  • one of the pieces that I ultimately wanna learn, upon Hungarian rhapsody No.2 by Liszt and Invention number 13 by Bach. :)

  • Frederic's pieces are so unlike others, you don't need to think of anything and his songs will reach your heart and give you his exact feeling that he was feeling at that moment. This piece made me so sad and happy. I didn't think it I felt it. :/ <3 Chopin

  • Chopin was often referred to as the "poet of the piano"....I think we can figure out why! Excellent playing! :)

  • Put yourself in a room with someone you love who is close to death. What are your feelings? What are your thoughts? It is sadness for the coming loss of love, the memories of joyous times interspersed with the coming fate. Near the end, there is the ascending tempo of a eternal future of hope when love will be replenished forever, followed by the feeling of grief at the moment.. Chopin's composition and your playing captures all of this. That is as much as a person can do.

  • Your playing and interpretation of this and other pieces is really great! You capture the essence and true soul of the pieces, and play them wonderfully.

  • @halevans7 The purpose of a sonata is to contrast the middle section with the themes already presented in the exposition...

  • lol, u r an ass dude....

  • Um, alrighty then . . ..

    Great job on this piece man.

  • It's the same long drawn sentimental agony that also ruined the Fantaisie Impromptu Op 66. The middle sections of both compositions are surprisingly similar; oddly out of place with a mawkish, saccharine melody.
