I really cherish your choice in repertoire.
Your sensitivity in this piece is perfect to my ears. That feeling of a child lost in an adults world. A certain innocence is attached here that is just wonderful. I really hope you play more mazurkas. You have a unique opportunity with this channel to bring some lesser known repertoire to a broad audience. I think many people have never heard the mazurkas.

As someone who played this piece before, admire this performance.

Wow neither rousseau nor kassia have uploaded a mazurka the truth is you are impressive, you upload every day as you play pieces of high levels and difficult the truth 10/10

I've been getting that random phrase at 0:51 in my head for weeks, and I knew it perfectly, even the notes themselves, but I never knew where it was from, but it seemed so recognisable. Now I know. Chopins music is so enchanting that it flows within you, you can create chopin in your head. Many of the melodies are heard as if you have had prior knowledge of them, as if they have come from within you. But of course this defies physics, but still its real. That's the beauty of Chopin, he sought only to portray humanity in music, not just sound, not just for intellectual satisfaction or enjoyment. This revolution in music was foundation for the romanticism in music, and this lived on for many years after his death. First through other romantics, such as Liszt and Schumann, and then all the way to the greats of the 20th century, from Scriabin to Rachmaninoff to Debussy. Even now it lives, though those who study romantic works, and compose in their style. Its like he had his own musical language, seperate and unrelated from the previous greats. I only ever heard the piece once, on this video, about 3 or 4 months ago, and didn't even pay too much attention to it, but yet a random part lasting a couple of seconds stuck in my head.

My beloved favorite Mazurka♡♡ The greatest ending imo of all 51 Mazurkas.
note changes in each chord, creating the leading tone. Then, like the snuffing out of a candle, Chopin extinguishes the piece. He simply stops. It is one of the most remarkable endings of any piece I know. When I play this mazurka, I think of a conversation between two people. I watch their faces as they talk. They are sharing something which happened long ago about which only they know. Their words overlap and weave together. And I know the scene before me, unique in that particular moment, will end and I will no longer be able to appreciate its beauty. It is painful to look at. So I close my eyes. The scene is no more. The piece simply stops.

Very nice effect here; like a period peice, visually. Even Liszt said he didn't understand the Mazukas. It's like Chopin went off into a world alone and wrote them. Certainly different from everything else he composed for his instrument. Artur ( Arthur ) Rubinstein recorded all of them. And I have a much sort after collection by the Great William Kapell; all of them as well. If you can find it anywhere, grab it up. It's unique. I have Mr. Rubinstein's also. A musical goldmine.

A wonderful piece made by the most amazing composer played by an incredible pianist. I love it.

From Tumblr (incorrect composer quotes)
Chopin: I’m writing a mazurka.
Liszt: what’s that?
Chopin: A traditional Polish folk dance.
Liszt: Oh, so pole dancing?
Chopin: Get out of my apartment.

The Chopin mazurkas and the polonaises are some of my favorite works by him. Thank you for this gift.

[hadrienjacquemoud]

I'm sure in less than a year, I'll be proud to say that I followed you at 2K. You'll be at the million in 1 year I'm sure about that

[m.moonsie]

There is a reason why Mazurkas are in the THIRD stage of the Chopin competition. Beautifully played!!

Are you wearing Lord Vinhetero's Mozart outfit ?

Thank you for playing my request! never thought you'd upload it so fast.

[yasins]

This is my favorite mazurka. I have listened to Horowitz's performance of it so many times

[chillaf]

Thanks for playing this I have been watching your videos for a while now and I'm amazed by your motivation to perfom all these beautiful pieces just to share it with others and not because of something else at least that's how I see it, may you clone yourself mate.

[pablovalverde]
