I remained absolutely amazed when I saw Chopin Revolutionary study on youtube played like that :
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pQxyQktNFwc&feature=related
Besides the fact that this study is hard played with hands, it is remarcable the fact that he played this study in an acceptable tempo and not with his hands only, but his feets ( because at the organ you are playing not only with your hands on the ” manual” – that’s the name of an organ clavier , but you are useing pedals that works like a clavier and you have also to pull the mecanism to fuel it with air ). So, watch and be amazed !

Sibiul ( Hermannstadt – the german name ) a place that deserve to be seen. Sibiu was named in 2007 European Capital of Culture for the year 2007 .
It’s a beautiful place, with a boheme atmosphere, full of history, kind people and with a great museum : Brukenthal.

Yesterday I was at a brilliant piano concert at Philarmonic George Enescu, a concert conducted by Sabin Pautza with Nelson Freire as soloist.
What could be more fabulous than Nelson Freire and Brahms ( he played piano concerto no.1 ) ? …Maybe Martha Argerich I would answer, but not in that night…she wasn’t there 
The contrasts between piano and forte, his way of playing : relaxed and sure of himself, with an attitude like “everything was under control” and what made me even more happy was the fact that the played as second bis, Brahms – Intermezzo in A op. 118 , an intermezzo that I’ve played.
I enjoyed this concert a lot. I’m waiting for the next one…

My beautiful dog that has 13 years old…I have her since I was little, we grew up together, we take walks together, we run, we are having fun together, she’s playing with a ball that make sounds when she bites it and I’m playing piano, so we make a great band 
She is a daschund – the country of origin is Germany ( in USA are called sausage dog )
It’s a great experience to grew up with such a dog : brave, loyal, funny, playful, with strong will.
