What a powerful rendition of the Bartok’s Romanian dances. One can feel so much passion and rhythm!

Mesmerizing. What creativity and spirit! Those pianists are rare.

It seems that you can get right into the heart of these pieces, and bring them to life. Dynamics, rhythm, and interpretation make this performance compulsory!

It’s the first time I hear the forth piece played faster than usually.
Amazing!!!

Das ist richtig gut gespielt. Vielen Dank für diese Aufnahme. Ein Schüler von mir wird dieses Stück bei Jugend musiziert vortragen und hat dann eine tolle Inspiration.

I loved how passion and rhythm is in all of the pieces great job 👍🏻I love the performance ❤

[chriss]

I didn't enjoy learning these when a kid, but it's nice to hear them with fresh ears.
I hope you'll be out and about performing live soon.

Learning to play number 5. Román polka / Poarga Românească (Romanian Polka) 4:06, thanks for the demo!

[irinaschwerdtle]

Als Halb-Griechin gelingt Ihnen perfekt die rumänische (Tanz)-Seele zu interpretieren!! Ganz herzlichen Dank für diese hervorragende Aufnahme!

[theroninpianist]

Bravo!

I played these at my senior recital at Jacobs School of Music and I loved them for their variety and interpretations. Ryta

[diegoneira]

I don't know how is Bartok supposed to be played, but I really loved that dramatic contrast. No. 3 is my favorite, but It never made me feel as intense as your interpretation just did. Thank you!!

[klaraterzic]

super technique, but the lead motives were often lost in the hurry, , , hear these songs being sung in solo and then you will understand,

[Cubanbearnyc]

...Lots of Paprika in that playing ! Brava !
