      The problem is they took all the sound boards off the piano. Upright pianos are better if you just open the top and use the lid holders to keep the piano open. Even the lid is a sound board. The hammers and strings are not to be exposed. An upright piano is not a grand piano. Grands have better sound boars so it's OK to open them but never take the lid off. Use the lid holders on grands as well.
      This is about how to make the piano sound better not where the pianist come from. Piano and other keyboard instruments require lots of practice it's a common practice to spend at least 4 hours behind the piano or other keyboard instruments. It's hard work And not much time for foolish things like video games and such like. 73

      By recent you mean since more than 100 years ago because modern classical concert etiquette came into being in the mid to late romantic period and has been a tradition of classical concert since then, yes during Mozart's time clapping and talking was expected because performances where usually done in-front of a smaller audience of aristocrats and royalty but ever since classical music in the romantic period became more and more common as more lower class people where able to enjoy concerts(which is not bad in anyway) the expectation became that people kept silent during performance as to not distract the players and allow everyone to hear the music, also a lot of romantic composers such Wagner or Liszt used silence as deliberate musical tools to convey meaning to their pieces and clapping and talking during the performance is just as much of an interruption of the musical idea as going to the stage and taking the musicians instruments, i understand that people want to allow clapping in classical music to make it less intimidating and more mainstream but that would mean sacrificing a large part of the culture and meaning of many pieces of music all types of live performance have their own culture and etiquette and that must be respected.

    I'd say number 2 is harder (Chopin etude op10/1) and more technical than number 1 (Hungarian rhapsody no. 2) although it looks far more difficult it's actually not. Also number 1 should be the valentina listista lizst piece that was written in his youth, can't remember its name, but she championed it as it's far less known than the Hungarian rhapsdoies, but way way harder to play, almost impossible at full tempo, el contrabandista I think it's called.
