Chopin - 4 Impromptus (Audio+Sheet) [François]

[@AshishXiangyiKumar]

My favourite interpretation! Such a nice surprise to see this here.

Hi Ashish, does it bother you that he plays non-legato whereas it is written legato on the score (for example in the 1st impromptu) and if not why ?

[@AshishXiangyiKumar]

@@Jules-ce3hs Not at all! I don't care what the score says; only that the music sounds good. If any performer thinks a departure from the score produces an effective music texture, they should absolutely go for it.

@@AshishXiangyiKumarTerrible that you don’t care what the score thinks. That type of thinking is dare I say a disgrace to the art of classical music.

Samson Francois versions of Chopin polonaises are absolutely beautiful!

Genius !

[@witsukyai1685]

Such unique approach to the impromptus

[@Isegawa2001]

Made me enjoy Op. 66 again.

[@witsukyai1685]

Everything played in a staccato manner but it somehow still remains compelling

[@leo32190]

Bad and rushed

[@pianoman1857]

too bad he’s probably one of the best and creative Chopin interpret of the 20th century and one of Cortot’s most gifted student
