Promoting the unknown

(at this moment, all of the above have less than 3000 views. Also, #2 is a bit slow to load – give it a few secs to buffer or it will cough a bit in the beginning, which is something you really don’t wan’t it to do)

I wasn’t all too happy about the previous video I posted of the third piece, which is part of the reason why I chose to – well, sort of – double post it. I haven’t played much the last couple of months, but I am getting to the point where I can almost play it correct and in tempo. Of course it would take at least another month to have it ready for a public performance, but I feel no time pressure or need to get it perfected that fast – I guess that’s one of the many good things about only playing for yourself and never playing in public if you can avoid it (I have given only a handful of, more or less, public piano recitals during the last half decade, and only one of them included playing in front of some people I didn’t know. If anything that’s a good thing for classical music as a whole: If people wan’t to listen to classical music, by *** they really shouldn’t be listening to people like me, when recordings of people like Lipatti, Horowitz, Kempff and Gilels are readily available. This point I have had quite a bit of difficulty explaining to my parents).
