Hi Gerald
Thanks for listening and commenting and I'm glad you enjoyed it.
Personally, I wouldn't call it masterfully played because the
microdynamics were not to my liking as I'm not a good enough player to
have adequate control over them. However, the gross dynamics are to my
liking and achieve what I set out to achieve. It's probably just a
slightly poor choice of words, but I'd take issue with equating loudness
with being expressive, or lower volumes as lacking expressiveness.
Although, to be fair, I'm guessing at the vague area that you're
referring to, because it wasn't clear -- a time index would have been
more useful.
Thanks again.
Cheers

Hello Q,
All in all a very good piece and masterfully played. So my criticism is
on a high level: I would try to play way more expressive, forte than
piano from about 2/3rds of the piece. I believe at that point you play a
C^7/C# chord . From that point on I would play harder until the
F_minor^(#7) chord, then go soft again. (I'm using latex-style here:
F_(something) is F subscript something and F^(something) is F
superscript something ). hope you get my point.
But again: Very well done , I listened to it 3 times in a row!
Regards,
Gerald
