And here I am finally posting too!

Cut to the chase, I present to you nocturne op. 9 no. 2, the super-celebrated one.

Excuse me for a few mistakes and for a scooter passing by in the street (-.-"") but I tried a thousand times and this was the only recording that convinced me..

Be merciful, I still need to gain experience ^^

up, up!

Well done, Matteo from Brescia. Not yet like Rubinstein or Pollini, but the study is evident.

A bit "wooden" perhaps, but you make it clear that if it's Chopin.... and not Schopenhauer...

Study it further until it becomes part of your DNA.

You never stop improving.

Compliments and best wishes

Yes, the woodiness is due to the fact that I am afraid of playing too loudly and so I stiffen up! Compared to this recording, I have already improved ^^

ah, one last thing, with ".. But make it clear that etc." do you mean that I don't make it clear that it is Chopin?

Thanks again!

I had not the slightest doubt that the "woodenness" was to be attributed to uncontrolled emotion, which breaks everything

even when recording alone, fearful of making a mistake, even if there isn't even a single idiot listening to you.

I meant to say: a bit wooden, but, despite this, you manage to make it clear that we are talking about Chopin and not Schopenhauer

(Chop-in >> Schopen- hauer)

Let's forget about Schopenhauer, who dealt with music from a philosophical point of view.

Chopin is much better.

The piece is there... the sound is... very beautiful..

But... do you have a grand? Or an upright?

Pleasant things to fix but... in effect, there is a lack of confidence in directing things in the right direction..

In the sense that a phrase starts, but due to insecurity, you don't lead it where you would want.

Like on the last page in the final bars "con forza" on the E... it seems as if the piece begins at that moment... that part is beautiful..

Do everything in that way... I don't mean loud.... but with conviction... there you did it because you were obliged to play forte.. oblige yourself in all the other nuances... perhaps write them yourself on the score...

And also watch the bass ....in my opinion, more piano is as legato as possible... as much as possible, naturally..

Anyway, it seems okay to me in general.. compliments.
