Chopin - Raindrop Prelude Op. 28, No. 15

Performed by Justin Bohemier, Composed by Frédéric Chopin (1810-1849).
The pictures in this video and their sequence of form, color and meaning were chosen and arranged to represent a possible story for this piece of music(kind of like a musical comic strip), and to capture the mood intended by the composer. It's what someone might imagine while listening to this song.

The last time I played this piece was on a Stineway Grand that was worth over 80 thousand dollar's and it sounded so good. I usually don't have access to an instrument of this quality. Kinda gave me the shiver's. I'm not sure if it was because of the quality of the piano, or the thought of how much the piano was worth. The key action had such a good feel and the piano was tuned to a universal pitch. A lot of the piano's are tuned to a standard pitch.I guess standard pitch is 4 church music.

@B876539 I used to be the custodian at the Conservatory of Victoria in Canada and I had access to their concert hall whenever I wanted. I would go there at night and turn on a couple spot lights, sit alone in the large hall, and played on their concert Steinway for hours at a time. It was worth over 100 grand and I think it was the 2nd best piano in Canada. It felt like butter under my fingers. It made me sound more skilled and passionate than I really was. Especially with the amazing acoustics.

3.14: Is that aivazovsky? Help me find out please!

@machimp34 No, I believe it's Willem van de Velde and the painting is called "An English Ship at Sea Lying To in a Gale".

isn't it incredible how classic music can touch your heart?

@B876539 You would have been better off playing this on any Bosendorffer worth around half the money. This peice requires a subjective instrument rather than a very objective Steinway grand.
