Your perception of things are a reflection of YOUR mind.

I discovered this prelude today in a collection book I have. I've been playing piano for 8 years, and have never heard/played this prelude before, but I immediately fell in love with it... it has enough depth to be a substantial piece, but at the same time its simple enough to sightread through after a few attempts. Very fun, and lots of opportunities for all kinds of expression.

@sherbetstraw I totally agree, I had to write an analysis paper on this Prelude, first sot cating for it, but as I listened more deeply, it has a very nice and deep structure the first impressions wear off and you hear the great intricacies hidden within.

I am analysing this for uni.. When I first heard the piece (3 hours ago or so) I pretty much hated it. Now, 50 plays later, I'm quite fond of it! :-D

The video is superfluous; the sound Michelangeli creates is what's important. On the other hand, it's a delight to watch his fingers -- particularly the thumbs -- move, producing the most delicate sound. I wonder if a reel of unused footage from the camera focused on the keyboard is gathering dust on a shelf somewhere. We should band together and restore it.

Attention:

A little tiny skunk approach ever so gentily looking for a little something. ok ok O.K. you might be a lion blah blah blah it's just that. . .

~If you'd let me explain a min.... ~SWISHHHHH~~~ .. ~.. ~~PHEW!

I told you that simply does not matter in the critter world. They are on another track. Ok ok O. K. you are tough I know but right now no one will get close to you and now you have a reputation that will last for a time and it will tell others where you have been. ~Hmm!

Personally, this my favourie interpretation of this piece. Michelangeli has colourfully used the grand dynamics that the piano offers to his advantage - he has really brought one of debussy's more playful compositions to life.

[Mattius946]

wow debussy was so creative with what he did, he really had such a wide range of styles/ choices on the piano alone. so much color in his music, hes probably the most ahead-of-his-time musician that's ever been so far, either him or allan holdsworth.
