      Exquisitely beautiful and tragic, how Chopin’s genius created this is a mystery of nature. The note at 5:05 always gets me, like the saddest resignation I have ever heard. Currently going through grief for a family member who died, I probably shouldn’t be listening to this but it perfectly suits my mood.

    This was great. From the beginning you really brought out the different voices so very well. The melody notes were more dominant as it should be, but the middle voices also got some attention when they needed to. It's easy to play something like this very flatly, but you did a great job in making it colorful!

    I'm sure this particular etude summons different scenarios in people's imaginations. I always think of the lower part as the wooing technique of a young man who is eager to win the affections of a beautiful but coy young woman represented by the higher part. He is giving his all, using all his available charm, and though she is interested she is not making it easy for him, so he has to bring out his very best melodies. His best, as we hear, is awesome, and he wins through at the closing notes as she allows herself to be won over. It is a beautiful piece of music.

    Have you ever think of playing all the Hungarian Rhapsodies? Most of them sound really great!
