This is a great performance. You rarely hear this etude played with such sense of the singing qualities of the music. And the tempo is quite right, not too fast, not too slow, she just lets the music take its time.

[aambrioso]

Wow! She pulls such a tremendous sound out of the piano with such a light touch. An amazing performance!

Non conta la Sua eliminazione...nulla conta Maestro Tiffany.
Lei è nella storia del Concertismo, i Suoi fans si contano a migliaia, il suo talento per Noi, Maestro Poon, ignora le tristi Giurie dei noti Premi...

Great playing that elegantly reveals all the richness in the texture of this etude..

[alandynin]

Beautiful dynamics and phrasing...
She gets this .

[Supralaska]

Il est bien déplorable qu'une si excellente pianiste ait été éliminée, surtout pour les raisons exposées.
Elle a une excellente technique, un doigté magnifique, une interprétation légère, sensible et joyeuse.
Quelle déception et quelle perte de crédibilité pour ces jurés de cette prise de position dans un concours si important ou seule la musique devrait avoir une place !

[karolpawlowski]

Sir Fryderyk Chopin is the pride of Poland! The whole country is very proud of him! 🇵🇱

[pianovirtuosofan]

I love her magical touch. Why she didn't won the Chopin competition back then🙄

[musicandcoffeere]

Me sorprende ver como crecio esta chica, verle en esta competición, me conmeve ver como ha evolucionado en su música, ya que, en su repertorio en esta competición son la mayoría estudios. Bravo Tiffany

We should not look at the surface to make conclusions. Posting the scores online doesn't mean that Chopin Competition is fair. It was beneficial if the competitor had studied with a member of the jury or had made a connection with the jury. In fact, jurors are often accused of giving high scores to their friends' students. Although some jurors were not eligible to rate their own students, they could give very low scores to other competitors who were better than their own students. Therefore, the outstanding competitors most likely could be easily eliminated.

Great and truly original interpretación! Bravo Tiffany!

There! At 1:09 she plays the triplet so seemlessly (listen to the middle voice the G-Ab-D)

[bludika]

this etude sounds like a dream, no idea why it's not played as much

[christinehu]

I think she played better in the preliminary round than this stage, but she was still outstanding among all the  contestants.Why did the jury make such a decision?What a pity !

[miroslavtokarski]

I don’t know why it is called “the most unknown Etude, ” it sounds really nice, especially when played by Tiffany

[MrInterestingthings]

Many of the pianists all study with the most important teachers Dang Thai son someone here mentions may have been responsible for her not winning and that his students went away with top prizez . This is the best Ive ever heard this etude played Listen to Cherkassy, Lhevinne, Cortot, Slobodyanik others and this certainly has best recorded sound . Poon is fantastic

[classicallover]

Dang Thai Son had huge power to influence the competition result. Three of his students won 3rd, 4th & 5th prize. Besides, exactly how many winners and finalists had made a personal connection with him in any way? Can any insider tell us the truth?

[lunchmind]

Music should not be a competitive sport. It is meant to communicate, which does most effectively.

[skydream]

Cant believe the fact that she wasnt one of the final members. It's definitely wrong.
