Steven Y. A. Full Member Registered: 01/14/13 Posts: 281 Loc: Toronto	Hi guys I just got my first piano home last week. I learnt piano during first year of college (the dorm has piano room) due to interest in Chopin's work. Played around a year then gave up for the next 10 years. Now I got my own piano I can play everyday isn't that wonderful? I am officially a member of adult beginner _________________________ PLEYEL P124

Polyphonist 1000 Post Club Member Registered: 03/03/13 Posts: 1159 Loc: New York City	Sounds great for a work in progress. I think you need to work on your evenness a little bit. Yes, rubato is acceptable in Chopin, but only to a certain extent, and this may be an example of overuse. Try to coordinate your hands a little better (ie playing the melody in sync with the left hand notes/chords) and have the tempo be more steady. Not metronomically of course. _________________________ Regards, Polyphonist

4evrBeginR 1000 Post Club Member Registered: 06/27/09 Posts: 1175 Loc: Northern California	Very nice sound. Beautiful piano, and welcome to the ABF. Does your Pleyel let you play anything not Chopin like some Beethoven or does it just drop its fallboard on your hands? Haha, just teasing. _________________________ Art is never finished, only abandoned. - da Vinci

Steven Y. A. Full Member Registered: 01/14/13 Posts: 281 Loc: Toronto	I do not mind at all, in fact, shares for sharing, Larry Polyphonist, thanks for the suggestion. I agree with everything you suggested, this is one of the easiest piece by Chopin, though one of my favorite - my poor technical capability still cannot keep up. rubato wise, i like over dosed mazurka 4everbeginer, the piano is lucky to have a master like me - who only listen and plays chopin weiyan, thanks for the comments jrcallan, good luck with it. i noticed there are several different versions of this piece. _________________________ PLEYEL P124

Peter K. Mose 500 Post Club Member Registered: 01/06/12 Posts: 871 Loc: Toronto, Ontario	Bravo, Steven! Tell us again what kind of piano you ended up with. The sound is especially lovely, and I recall you sharing your purchase process, but I forgot the outcome. Hope this instrument gives you many years of joy!
