Step right up for Chopin's Revolutionary Etude, where piano playing transforms into a thrilling and daring spectacle! Dive into this masterpiece that pushes the boundaries of piano technique while tickling your eardrums with a devilish twist.

Chopin was like the mad scientist of Etudes, experimenting with split chords, thirds and octaves, counter-motifs, and arpeggiated chord constructions. The result? An innovative musical landscape that would make even Beethoven raise an eyebrow.

Etude No. 12 is Chopin's pièce de résistance, a fiery expression of passion that storms the stage with hurricane-like intensity. This powerhouse piece showcases heroic melodies, accompanied by stormy waves of left-hand passages – it's like Beethoven's symphonies cranked up to eleven!

Chopin's genius lies in his ability to turn melody into a living force. The Revolutionary Etude is a testament to that, as tension and relaxation weave together to form a harmonious whole. And thanks to Chopin's mastery of counterpoint, the piece achieves an unparalleled level of expression.

Even the likes of Liszt and Schumann had high praise for Chopin. Delacroix called him the "purest and best-tasting artist" he'd ever encountered. Liszt compared his music to an Aeolian harp that could magically blend all musical scales. And Schumann said Chopin's playing was like a "deep fundamental tone and a soft continuously-singing upper voice."

The Revolutionary Etude is a workout for the left hand, demanding precision, neatness, and respect for Chopin's writing. Accents every four semiquavers and a rapid tempo make this Etude an exhilarating challenge for any pianist.

So, buckle up for a rollercoaster ride of technical mastery and unbridled passion with Chopin's Revolutionary Etude – it's a musical adventure that'll leave you breathless! 🎹🔥🌪️

My recording of Piano Sonata No. 14 in C-sharp minor “Quasi una fantasia”, Op. 27, No. 2, 1st movement (Moonlight Sonata), composed by Beethoven in his early 30’s.

In my original recording I had hit some incorrect notes and even omitted a note in the bass.  In this recording I have corrected all mistakes.

Moonlight Sonata (1st Movement)

Le Cygne, or The Swan, is the thirteenth movement of The Carnival of the Animals by Camille Saint-Saëns. This piece features a solo cello in tenor clef and two accompaniment pianos.The piece is in 6/4 time, with a key signature of G major. It makes use of legato and slurring, the music should flow like a swan gliding through the water. This piece is often played using much vibrato.

This second movement is played allegreto which translates as a little quickly.  This movement is in the key of Bb Minor. I used three piano samples for this, electric, 5 meter grand and Distant Mountain Grand to get the space into the music.
