The best thing about Wunder is that he's willing to play Chopin pieces that aren't as well-known or popular.

How I wish I could like this video at least once more

Very nice interpretation, most versions I’ve heard I don’t like - this is a very unusual piece but does have some stunning moments in it - I think it does have to have a certain flow to it (as here, with a few exceptions) to give it that elegant 19th century aspect, like when Italianate style for houses was replacing Greek Revival and Jenny Lind was about to become the first important entertainment celebrity.

W mojej i nie tylko opinii to Ingolf Wunder powinien wygrać Konkurs Chopinowski w 2010r.

I’m sorry but how is not the most beautiful piece of piano music ever made - I’ve never encountered anything which even compares to its beauty.

I'm thrilled he brought this work to the competition - probably the only time we'll ever hear the Bolero in such a high-profile context. Having said that....his touch and overall approach to the main A minor theme (1:53) is a bit heavy for my taste. I think a brisker tempo and lighter/more flirtatious attack is needed there.

Bolero is an underrated piece, Bolero is a masterpiece 💗💗💗 see how Chopin started with a prélude of sorts then you can hear polonaise, waltz, mazurka and Balade air. Chopin was the greatest genius born in this world. Haaa, do you know what Chopin is saying?? He's p*ssed, he's angry, thinking to himself, he was a GOD ♥️❤️❤️ Chopin I mean. Bravooo Wunder,

Very polished technique. Every note sounded so clear. He is excellent, he even made the Bolero sound good.

[rogercarroll]

It's Chopin's "Spanish Polonaise".

[PianoSpeaks]

Amazing!!! Unrelated question are you allowed to play Sonata opus 4 for the Chopin competition? Because no one ever plays it.

Daje się odczuć nuty muzyki hiszpańskiej.
