Piano miniatures

This is where I post Bartok, Schumann, Debussy, Chopin, Prokofiev et al played by my favorite pianists. Literally the best music in the world AFAIAC.

It's a movement from a larger work but boy does it work as a miniature on its own

Used to love this one, now sounds a bit kitschy if I'm honest

You have absolutely amazing taste. This is the best music in the world. Are you a pianist jadis?

Hey thanks!

I'm not but, being Russian, I studied the piano for years as a kid. I was okay but nowhere good enough to think of a professional career as my grandpa kinda wanted me to. Still, it was good for me overall because some of the teachers I had were amazing and instilled in me a love of music.

That definitely explains the amazing taste. I grew up here in LA but my family is from the former soviet union, not Russian, but I studied classical piano in college and my mom is a pianist too. I was lucky that in college I studied under a Russian pianist, it is the best school of piano playing. I have a feeling you're not giving yourself enough credit and were/are very likely a great pianist.

It would be cool to connect with you as unfortunately my present career is not in music. I just started playing more seriously again and it would be cool to discuss piano repertoire with you if you want.
