  • Dear Aaron,

    you're amazing ! I played classical piano for 4 years and then I started playing jazzpiano, but still my heart stops everytime I hear a few amazing piano songs - played so well, like you did !

    Keep on that good work, so that I could enjoy this great work again !

    Good luck in everything you do,

    Janette

  • Aaron,

    My name's Kitty, I'm 16 and I think you are just incredible!! Definitely brought me more reason for me to be a concert pianist. I saw your other video from an international contest, and I rememeber playing the Beethoven Bagatelle it made me smile to hear it again, but I have to tip my hat to you for playing this amazing piece and that Rachmanninoff Prelude! I did a mini recital today and played Khachaturian's Toccata :)

    I wish you all the luck for more success in your future,

    Kitty

  • Dear Kitty,

    Thank you so much for your encouraging words! I'm glad you enjoyed my Chopin and Rachmaninoff, as I spent countless hours working on them (especially the Rachmaninoff). Thanks again and I hope you continue to enjoy playing piano!

    Sincerely,

    Aaron

  • Aaron keep uploading videos please! you really are a talented pianist and all the best for the future

  • Dear wwandrag,

    Thank you for the absolutely incredible compliments! Your comment on my interpretation is very meaningful to me as interpretation is more difficult for me to nail than technique. Thanks also for watching my video!

    Sincerely,

    Aaron

  • It is a rare pleasure to see someone not only playing with perfect technique but also feeling and emotion.

  • Thank you britanytwain!
