1st International Chopin Competition on Period Instruments

Hehe, unlike the impression you might get from glancing through the above I’ve really enjoyed the morning session, but you haven’t missed anything important IMO. All three were good, but not terribly interesting.

Da 10/4 nu zpeed record cummah…!

Admittedly through forgetting a third of the etude.

Elizaveta is very nervous or had too much coffee.

We should get someone to text her that I can’t watch right now anyway so there’s nothing to be nervous about

On board again now. I’ve only listened about a minute, but shame the tech doesn’t seem to work for her because I really like this otherwise. She feels more genuine musically than either of the earlier ones.

Now listening to the Ballade 2 by Elizaveta…ugly, sloppy :cry:

HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

da CUT fo zhor juz a broadcazt malfunction

no even a TUBE ALGO wud randomly zkip forward lyk dat tru :sunglasses:

bazed on exiztin evidence, tiz a zmooth 1’40 interp on da PIMP 88 8)

Yeah that could have needed a bit more work. How old is she?

Hahaha why don’t we all join the chat over there? It’s easier! :slight_smile:

I’m multi-tasking there too =) But I’m a bit occupied atm, I think I’m largely going to miss the next one here

Small fakerudy in da fugue

And back we are with another sewing machine apparently.

Damn those Russians! Even an out of practice school kid sounds better than people from other nations.

I must say that this instrument is well recorded for a live stream…PERIOD!! :wink:

Things always sound good from Warsaw

This guy Pacholec has a beautiful touch, good control over dynamics…

The connection was sheeyat, couldn’t hear half of it…

Only heard his Bach, I shall have to backtrack on him too

Even the off-line video is choppy alas, but good sound indeed and fine interpretations. Again not particularly interesting however (why does everything has to be so neat and polite from these participants?), and he plays as if on a modern piano. But this is one I think they’ll advance to R2.

Didn’t see all of his playing but tbh much preferred the Bach to the Chopball.

Dude I don’t remember linking that!

Yeah sounds impressive. I only saw the end of his R1 appearance.
