Chopin Etude Op. 25 No. 11 “Winter Wind”
Mike performing. Recorded Sunday, August 15, 2004. This is perhaps one of the most technically difficult pieces in the Chopin repertoire. As such, some technical difficulties throughout the piece hold me up a bit, but this is otherwise as good as I got it that day shot on camera.
I sometimes play pieces a little differently than written (especially my mistakes!). Here, I end up adding bass in two places: just before the recap playing the A an octave lower, and in the coda, as a suggestion from Godowsky’s version, I continue the descent of octaves all the way to the bottom of the keyboard.
