PianoTell Recital #3 Is Now Live!

Sam Schumann op 15-6 - Sorry to hear about your friend.

SalmonJack Just Mist by SalmonJack - I liked the second video better. Perhaps it was just because the audio wasn't as harsh sounding to me. Or it could have been the pretty pictures.

Rob 'Pembrokeshire Promise.' by Rob - Lovely. The nod to the anthem and the Red Dragon are a nice touch.

BicBic BicBic in Utah - Your performance was well done and I'm waiting to listen to more of you performing Chopin's Masurkas.

Sgisela Danza de los ñáñigos, Ernesto Lecuona - Your concentration on the piece was very visible. That's not saying it was a bad thing, only that I could see it. At the end it was also obvious that you enjoyed playing this piece.

Gooseberry Nights in White Satin by The Moody Blues - Wonderfully played. From the performance I could tell how much emotion was in this for you.

Today's commentary is now done. Thank you all for making my day a bit brighter.

Greta99 — Berceuse, Op. 23 No. 1
I had never heard of this composer before, but after hearing your lovely performance of that piece I'd like to hear more. You play beautifully - how long have you been playing?
ShiroKuro — Wind
What a lovely relaxing piece of music - I could imagine looking across a river and watching ripples of water as a gentle breeze rustles nearby trees. You are an extremely competent player.
navindra — Over The Rainbow
This piece from A's book 1 is very familiar to me - I did tackle it but it's not as easy as it appears and I never played it as well as you - that was very nicely done. The hat was a great choice - so stylish! (I think it would look much better without the pony tail though - you could tuck it inside the hat next time, for a smoother look.)

rogerch — Flutter - another great improv! The title fits perfectly!

Nightowl — Frankie and Johnnie - Well done! Used to play this in a former life with a bluegrass band, but I was playing banjo!

Peyton — A Dream of Far Away (part two) - keeps getting better and better!

Animisha — To a Wild Rose - Very well done! I think this is the piece that MacDowell tossed in the trash. His wife found it there and made him keep it...

keff — Summertime - Really easy to listen to! Loved that last chord!

iternabe — Malagueña - Love this piece - of course, it exists in lots of arrangements for just about every instrument or band or orchestra. Well played!

Sophia & @rsl12 — Just a "Good Old Tune" - Excellent all around from both of you! Including the video editing!

rach3master — Call of Silence: Attack on Titan OST - Another great one!

plop_symphony — A Hermit Crab Surfing - A lot of fun - to listen to and to play!

Player1 — Legend of Madrid - Sounded good even though you have had some problems - just keep plugging away at it!

MarieJ — I Giorni - commented at PW - still sounds great over here!

Sam Thank you.

Gooseberry
Thank you!

Sophia What a sweet piece, well played! It's nice to see something from a female composer - not unusual now, but definitely back then.

Thank you! You're right, that's why she chose to publish her music under the name of Mel rather than her birth name Mélanie.

Peyton
Thank you!

Sgisela
Thank you!

rogerch

Thank you!

WieWaldi
Thank you!

Greta99 Oh, so you are a repeat returner... there seem to be quite a few around here. From the time frames you mentioned you're now into your 8th consecutive year of playing, which explains your advanced skill level. You must feel pleased that you stuck with it and now your commitment is paying dividends.

Nightowl Thank you for your kind words, Nightowl!

Nightowl I certainly don't remember playing that well after fourteen months!
For the most part your rhythm was rock solid, and the final chord was beautifully played.

iternabe Your playing is perfect! The lessons with @Seeker are certainly paying off. I especially liked the alternating fingers on the E. It makes a subtle, yet significant difference to the sound. Bravo, or should that be, Olé!

rach3master Beautifully played with great feeling and expression. I have not heard this piece before, but it is definitely my kind of music. Excellent audio production to my ears.

plop_symphony A fun piece, played really well! Your performance conveyed everything that was promised in the title.

Player1 I was sorry to read that you have issues preventing you from playing, but I applaud you for taking part uder the circumstances.
Best wishes for a speedy and complete recovery.

Pathbreaker I closed my eyes, and felt I was in an intimate concert hall.
Just beautiful. Thank you.
