I really enjoy and love this performance of his, I'm not sure where the rest of his work stands but I do find myself listening to this piece and watching him perform it very often. A very spirited and musical performance I think deserving of the many listens I have given it(at 20 minutes long no less!). Not sure of his technique in any particular light, as I'm just beginning on mine with alan's work. I've seen some "cobra strike" motions and many other little things.

Sorry, I must say I couldn't listen to more than a few seconds because it just seems to be pumping out notes. No musical inflection, it's all square. Of course it's nice and technically clean but not only small and conservative, it's unimaginative! The piece is the Wanderer FANTASY! AFF
