I think he means all of them. And yeah, that chandelier looks a little dangerous.

Christ, that pianist. Don't you just want to render him unrecognisable with a clawhammer.

Certainly his inspiration. (If adding a handful of arpeggios to a piece is good, then playing the piece in continuous arpeggio must be even better.) He forgot to turn to the camera and smile, that was the real secret of Liberace.

I wish I had never followed that link. My God... Why are there people like this determined to give the rest of us a bad name? The most common reaction to people knowing I'm a pianist nowadays is "Oh - like Liberace" or "Oh - like Elton John". I later learned in court that slamming my piano lid repeatedly down on their heads is considered 'assault', and not 'self-defense'. Today's courts are corrupt!

He forgot to turn to the camera and smile, that was the real secret of Liberace. Damon, you didn't stick around to the end of the piece! Fast forward it... It is my considered opinion, after much research and scholarly inquiry, including a study of Chopin's original letters in which he responds to appreciation for his performances, as well as a study of the various original drafts of the Nocturne in question in the composer's own hand, that this is the way Chopin would have played it himself. A very genuine interpretation. Thank you, Jon England! --Ahem
