Here is the recording of me playing in a competition. These were the eliminatory rounds.

1)Bach prelude and fuge in B flat major
2)Chopin etude op.25 no.12
3)Vianna da Motta Op.9 No.1 (Canção d'Amor)


I did pass through to the finals where i played the Op.26 No.12 (Beethoven) and rachmaninoff elegie (Op.3 No.1) but i did so many mistakes and its such a terrible performance im not even gonna listen to it nor gonna post it.


Opinions?




Thanks

Well done!!!! Thanks for sharing this with us !!

thanks!

I might post up my op.27 no.2 and my op.25 no.1 if i have time and if i can get a good sound quality out of it

That would be terrific !!

How many years have you been playing??

A tad before i was 5 years old, for like 11 years and a bit. But only since like the last year i managed to get a really good teacher

Well you are doing EXTREMELY WELL !!!

I hope you plan to stick with it - you are very talented !!

thank you very much!

you are in a very good place at (16?) years old it's good that you've got a good teacher now then to hone all of your ability.

if this is what you want to do, just keep working and i'm sure good things will happen for you!

thanks. i am currently studying in a music school in the uk. i might get the chance to play in a sort of old building with a really nice steinway is and where many famous pianists have stayed when they came to portugal including rubinstein, freire, gulda, argerich and others. if i get permission to record i will get some more up.

Nice playing, especially the Chopin Etude! I haven't heard the other piece, but it was a wonderful introduction to it for me. Keep up the good work.

the competition required a piece by a portuguese composer. as all of the portuguese music is obscure i did some research and i found vianna da motta a student of lizst so i did it.

That was great! I envy you, you play the etude really well.
Bravo!

I really enjoyed your performances, well done!

Thanks everyone!
