  • In my opinion this is exactly how the Etude op 10 no 1 should be payed. Thank you for playing it as a work of Chopin and not as a 'virtuosity' show off. No need to prove a brillant technique that is obviously there.

  • Great performance - most interpretations of this piece involve drowning out the notes with the pedal, but you've maintained a lot of the clarity. Also liked your use accents, which is vital in maintaining structure and interest in this piece.

  • stfu

  • i saw this guy play live in putaruru, NZ on the weekend. it was amazing. as a young pianist, i found it both inspiring and somewhat daunting. john chen is a true master of the piano

  • The last note could have been more accentuated. But I agree that your technique is no worse than Kissin.

  • very very good~!

    Thanks For sharing~!

  • Flawless technique, I envy his ability to even play this piece.

    But it's missing something big, like I can't feel anything.

  • to legopiano -....well he is Kissin.

    Is this guy a pro soloist ? I guess he's an

    amateur pianist and consequently comparisons and remarks should be correctly put accordingly to the players'

    level.

  • o o 好美啊

  • great job!!!!

  • to simkinave - the piece or the rendition..?

    Put aside any personal taste the piece is a true marvel and this rendition a bit flat

    all through...But if you listen to Kempff or

    Ashkenazy's performances these will sound as flat as this one eventhough

    they are playing it faster.

    Mind that this guy is not a pro soloist ...

    that's why I wouldn't rate this rendition so sharply .

  • no words except  thank you !!
