This was lovely - thanks for posting

I like the liberties you took with the tempo. I think it adds to the expression of the piece.

Lovely....

Thank you.

my friend jason played this for regional piano competion just yesterday. this is a wonderful piece but its so hard.

To entertain is a gift, thank you - Gene

I like your piano inizio. I thought at first it was also by Sibelius.

That is just like the way i play it, except for the sort of climax after the octaves, I would roll the chord a bit faster. Nice job!

Beautiful, what's the brand name of grand piano?

Pretty good :) It's a hard piece. Consider a bit more fluid, constant tempo. Rubato is good, but I feel sometimes the tempo fluctuatations are rather severe or jerky. I'm sure by now though you have the piece down pat.

Yamaha C3 ? 188 cm ?

you're right my comment was less than clear -- but anyway I take back what I said. I found this again and thought it was excellent, really. I guess I was just wrapped up in the way I had it in my head back whenever I wrote that., and I am truely sorry for degrading the performance with the whole 'down pat' thing.

Fluid and still constant tempo? What the hell are you talking about :)
