    This is a "work in progress" video - so definitely NOT the "final" version of my interpretation of this piece but much more just the beginning of a long journey with it:)
    Chopin Ballde No.1 - one of my favorite works by this composer!
    On this channel I am sharing my experience and thoughts about fingerings, interpretation, fingertechniques and playing piano in general. If you have any questions or ideas please leave it in the comments!

    Hi everyone! I was planning to do a livestream today playing this piece - however, my internet connection is not stable enough today so I just recorded it to share the progress with you guys! :) This is just a "work in progress" video - so still very far away from a "final interpretation" if that excists :P I started practicing this piece around May and had an on/off relationship with it due to concerts with other program but now I want to focus more on the Ballads in the next months and keep you updated about the progress!
    Also a little reminder here for my album release concert in the Liederhalle Stuttgart - here you will find tickets and more info!:

      All ballads has their on details, wonderful and powerful at same times. Only different "stories" tha need to be learned. But this coda is so magnificent. Rise from the deep of the the soul pointing right to the sky. Is absolutely amazing. tension rise till the agitato and increase like a storm until the scales that are just a prelude to the octave that close on the final G with like closing, once for all, the war. What do you want more😂 is absolutely wonderful

    Hello Annique, very good interpretation of the Chopin's ballade n°1, I appreciate your fascination toward Chopin's music : rubati are light and pertinent, fast part are insane !! and lyrics melodies are very good. This style correspond to you like the relation enter your piano and you, and I think that it is very important in order to find your way. You have find it, and that can be the most beautiful reward of your life, you'are lucky ! Expressivity of this music can be expansive ; at contrary, that can be very calm an melancolic, this is magic rules of Chopin's music, that I understand instantly. Good luck for the next !

However.. this video says it's a work in progress, and for it to be a "wip" it sounds good. Almost as good as Zimmermans and others.
