Paderewski was an author I knew very little about. I had the chance to get my hands on a minuet and discovered a true pleasure for the spirit. Charming, in the old style and very effective; here is a brief glimpse of the finale. I think I will put it among the encore pieces to play at concerts. Truly very pleasant!!

Good old Paderewski!! Beautiful, Simone. Very interesting. He was truly a great man, even as a political figure.

Do you have the score? ha ha... I would gladly take a peek at it.

I was re-reading it, I didn't record everything. Let's say the clue part is the ending anyway. The rest is also quite repetitive. In my opinion, it fits perfectly as an encore piece, just to link back to the other topic.

I had it too and I didn't even know it.

But it is not very easy
