Chopin, ballade in g minor
Maybe you know the story, maybe not but now we have a video, well, almost from that event where Alan stood up and yelled in the middle of Montreal piano competition finalist announcement.
Kemal and Rastko keep on working on the etude
and a few other things too. Remember, this is a Paganini etude
and it should be played that way
