I am no expert, just like to hear. This piece is intense. Great playing. I felt a little bit too fast, but obviously with great precision in each note. Anyway, congrats from Brasil. 🇧🇷🤘. Great talent, is in my list.😅

It is refreshing to see a pianist of today play a piece in the traditional style of the great pianists of yesterday, rather than the cold/mechanical/robotic styles used by the pianists of today. WoO80 is one of my favorites. Well done, thank you! I look forward to listening to your other recordings

It' s really interesting to listen also to your performance in Beethoven, especially in this difficult set of Variations.
Very clear and clever interpretation, close to certain interpreters of the Past, especially of "Austrian" origins or taste...
In this manner the Piece seems to have something in common with the Mendelssohn of the Variations Serieuses, and less with pure " beethovenism"... I like it, bravo M° McCawley!

Mr.Leon McCawley, SO WONDERFUL AS ALWAYS, Thank you for my favourite Beethoven in an excellent your rendition, already I added your video to my playlist "My Favourite Classical Music" and I've heard several your great performances, really your channel deserves more subscribers (lately I'm your new subscriber No.287), my dream is to play the grand piano Steinway, but I play only the upright piano Offberg-Legnica (it's my Father's piano), of course, my "like-thumb up-upvote"9 for your great rendition, again all the best from Poland, have a happy day. Joanna

Wonderful!😊
32 variations in 10 minutes...
Saved me from listening to Brendel's Diabelli Variations yet again...(as a cure for my insomnia... only joking!😊).
Really appreciate your artistry!😊😋
