8:40 - 9:30 has got to be one of the most calming and beautiful things I’ve ever heard, it’s insane

[@jeremywu1238]

Oh my goodness, the lower pitch makes it sound even more beautiful and elegant 😍🥺

[@radamik]

Often considered Chopin’s finest work although personally I rank it with the Barcarolle, the Fantasy in F, the first Ballade, and the second Scherzo. I wonder whether he himself was struck by the beauty of his compositions and might have thought “Wow! I wrote that !”

[@davisatdavis1]

When he first heard Tristesse performed he was really struck by it, almost confused. And about that work in particular, he said "never in my life have I written a more beautiful melody"

[@radamik]

Tristesse is certainly one of his best but there are so many others! When I was a kid I watched the 1945 movie “A Song to Remember” about a very fictionalized version of Chopin’s life and in it was the second scherzo which I thought was the most incredible music I had ever heard. ( didn’t know what it was of course, my mom called a classical record shop, asked if anyone was familiar with the movie, someone was and told her what it was…..). Speaking of etudes, I love that slow, very sad one (op 25 I think?) - do you know it.

[@davisatdavis1]

@@radamik great story! And I think you're talking about op 25 no 7.

[@kairon5249]

Chopin said his first ballade was his favorite piece of his, but he said his favorite waltz was the a minor valse (op 34 no 2) which is rather unkown compared to his more famous waltzes. To be fair though he probably said this before op 64 was written.

12:38, the chord in 12:40 is just breathtaking

[@user-dn2zg2ku9z]

12:07 it's the day you fell in love😌

[@noncatholiccatholicrat6309]

This just cured my schizophrenia

[@salifscott4664]

6:05 - 7:14 is one of the most beautiful things I have ever heard

[@rekordea]

Chopin’s a genius

[@Teaddybear.738]

You’re a monster for not including the part after that, the most beautiful melody I’ve heard in my lifetime

[@Thoys-dh7zm]

4:44 the most beautiful musical moment

[@sergei.scheen]

I agree that part is so beautiful and the voicing is just mwah

[@Thoys-dh7zm]

​@@sergei.scheenyes I agree I'm a pianist and it's even better IRL when you feel the melody going throughout the room louder and louder throughout the room starting from a single F

[@byerthebyer]

Beautiful
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.

Thanks you for it 😄

[@kiet2898]

Yes, sure!

[@davisatdavis1]

This is so good holy shit

[@eric-hg3yv]

Amazing

[@japonoyunyapmcskojima8290]

My favorite ballade. Can you also make Ravel- La Valse and Ravel- Gaspard de la Nuit please.

[@rekordea]

I'll add these to my list, thanks

[@cumlekapisi]

Thanks

[@hannibal8049]

Thank you for uploading this, this is the finest piece I have ever heard. And these respirations only could be zimerman's, you have great taste selcting composer, speed and pitch. Keep it up!!

[@rekordea]

Thank you so much 😊

[@yuvalmolad7145]

Who is the pianist? it sounds really good. is there a normal speed version?

[@julestartatin7899]

I recognize Krystian Zimerman

[@ella_rain]

Zimerman…his version and Richetrs are my fav :)

[@nerrdinho]

Very nice! Can you do this to Chopin’s Mazurka op 67 no 3 in c major, short but beautiful piece!

[@rekordea]

Thanks 😊 I’ll add this to my list!

[@radamik]

I really love several mazurkas but can never remember the opus or number of them - when l want to I listen to them I have to keep guessing! Will have to keep a record of them. (I think there’s over 50 of them (?)).

[@randiey95]

3:49

[@kaushikraman1452]

Wow sounds beautiful, has the piece been transposed to c# minor?

[@davisatdavis1]

My perfect pitch says so

[@ZKLofiTone]

@@davisatdavis1 really?

[@PabloRodriguez-um5ht]

How do you transpose into another key??

[@Thomas-uv5tz]

@@PabloRodriguez-um5ht when you slow down a piece on softwares like audacity you usually lower the pitch too.

[@AlbertoSegovia.]

Maybe this is closer to what he composed, really. Everyone of us that take music seriously should be acquainted with the Whole Beat Metronome practice.

[@ProudPatriot1776]

I really, really like this slowed-down version.
If you want another interpretation of Ballade 4: czcams.com/video/7v8_jxGnboQ/video.html
Wim Winters is very controversial but his is another wonderful and revealing performance.

[@rekordea]

Wonderful, thank you :)

[@AlbertoSegovia.]

Nathan, exactly what I was thinking! The 6 minute passage here is amazingly revealing and maybe closer to his genius!!

[@ChopinReview]

Whats the name of the painting?

[@danielmeb84]

its a picture I assume

[@RolandHuettmann]

Too slow..)))
