@@amadeusvonfrancois thank you! Yes it's (relatively speaking) not a difficult sonata. The difficulty with pieces like this, filming yourself for a take on CZcams, is of course to make no ugly mistakes, no ugly slips, or ugly wrong pedal moves, or ugly tempo /timing mistakes, or ugly toucher mistakes. That's what's making a take like this so enormous difficult, as we all know, every one who tries to record him of herself knows what I'm talking about. Especially when you record a somewhat longer piece like this. Then the challenge is, of course, bigger. And with technically more challenging pieces even way more bigger, of course. And record in a very very dry room, with no reverb at àll, on a simple modest piano, is not making it easier 😅. That distracting thing is a so called "Swinging Sticks" 😅🥹, you can easily google them. I always try to make some kind of or nice looking 'entourage' so to speak, with my modest home-movies, and as you maybe could have already seen on my channel: I have a lòt of these items :-) so, I thought, with this very slow and long piece, I film one of them, a hypnotic one, in this upload, near the piano. :-) Kind regards, thanks for your nice comment, greetings from the Netherlands, Simon 🎹
Nice playing of a charming piece. Not too difficult that I will try playing. What is that distracting swinging object in the background?
