Given his chronic tuberculosis and ultimately abbreviated life , one can only imagine what this artistic genius could have created beyond his powerful work.

"I suddenly realized that the beauty of Chopin’s prelude was apparently determined, dictated from the melody of the foreground - which is beautiful, it has beautiful variations, but the attraction of the piece, the depth of the piece, the truth of the piece was not in the melody of the foreground: it was in a note that began to be heard lightly and then grew, and grew, and grew, so that the melody moved into the background and instead this note developed, always the same, always the same, - precisely “mono-tone” -, always one; and then it moved to the background and passed by again in the foreground. And when one begins to notice that note, he understands that the theme of the piece is that note and not the melody, and that note becomes like a fixation. So much so that at the third to last or penultimate bar it appears that this note has won: the melody takes over and dictates its notes slowly, almost dominating the field. But after four or five of these notes, which dominate the field, tac tac tac: the raindrop returns. And I have all of a sudden understood, hearing this prelude by Chopin - after I had heard it a hundred times -, that this is the sense of life: the meaning of life is like that note, always the same, uniform. All the color of life, all the variety of life is in appearance; but even if being the variety of life, the brightness of life, it’s all in the appearance, that’s not the theme of life. It’s not that man wants, it’s not that man awaits: rather there is that fixation there that is the desire for happiness, the desire for happiness. That note there in the melody that is in man it’s the desire for happiness, the need of the heart, i.e. the vanishing point. Listen to this prelude by Chopin and then you will see. After that I have understood this: that all pieces of music show me the same thing!" - Don Luigi Guissani.
I like this version more because of the slow gentle nes but all of sudden you realize all thing are not as gentle and you face the harsh realities of life but then all of sudden a spark of hope that bring you back to life other versions of this peace iv listen to have been spend up a bit if there’s a version of this song that is like what I describe please feel free to message me I would gladly like to listen to peace that stirs my heart in such way
Dude has a point, I must say... there are multiple flagrant fouls, wrong notes etc... and then it repeats the same mediocre performance for an hour, wtf?

One may argue that he may not have created such powerful work if it weren't for his maladies..
It's amazing how different musicians play Raindrops so differently from others...some slower..some faster..

Well done! I just uploaded this as well :)!
This is an hour and 41 seconds. Such a misleading title... LOL
excuse me, but that are just 41 missed seconds. that is no problem, right.
Mine says 56 minutes?
thnx
you imagine Chopin with a protools nowdays...
no you don't
Who disliked this?!
Probably a perfectionist.
David is playing 💀💀
Set the playback speed to 1.25 and it’s even better
Jesus...why play this music with such a hurry? Not good
Uhh this is 56 minutes
This version is pretty bad. He does not have elegance when playing multiple notes at once.
Meh.
by far one of the worst performances of this beloved piece... and to expect someone to sit through it for an hour is insulting
Roger Smith what's got your thong in a twist?
Roger Smith honestly that's such a good comeback that I ain't even mad
An internet argument solved like gentlemen. I salute you.
You don't know what real piano pieces are
