Hi Greg, I just started to learn this prelude 2 days ago when I heard the climax and I thought oh I must have that and these suggestions you have are perfect for me. They’re very methodical and accumulative and I am going to do everything as you suggest because when you taught how to play the Etude 25/12 and memorize it first, I have never had such success with a piece of work. I’m still working on that piece and I do find myself still taking my hands apart because the descending arpeggios are not precise enough. I feel like I’m actually able to make music on the etude so I’ve set this prelude as my next long-term project, so I’m working on this prelude, 2 études and two ballades and they’re all at various stages so thank you for this. It’s perfect for me. Many many thanks. 🙏 💛💛💛
To było jedno z moich pierwszych chopinowskich preludiów 😁. W szczególności uwielbiam wykonanie Seong-Jina Cho, który wyodrębnia w interesujący sposób tryl i przednutki lewej ręki
I have just finished watching some of your Chopin prelude analysis videos, and I loved them! I see that you made videos on his Op 45 and the posthumous one in Ab major, but did you know that he wrote another one in Eb minor called “the devil’s trill prelude”? It’s a very strange work but I think it would be very interesting for you to do an analysis on it sometime 😀
The 'other' version - which I, too, prefer - is SO often played that I don't think I've ever heard the manuscript version before. And, yes, I was uncomfortable hearing it and you were right to ask the question. The musical logic is fine though, after hearing it several times. Which will go on the CD? I ask myself!!!😟😟😟
@@gregniemczuk 1) Jan Ekier in his «Introduction to the Polish National Edition of the Works of Fryderyk Chopin. Part 1. Editorial Issues» (one can find online the PDFs for both english and polish versions), argues and insists that the triplet-version, the "Bachian convention" as he calls it, is the one Chopin intended. 2) Apart from that, in the Henle edition of op. 28 from 2007, the editor Norbert Müllemann gives also a quite detailed account of the various problems concerning this particular problem, which I find worth reading for anyone interested. At the end of his commentary Müllemann says that actually is not definitely clear what Chopin meant with his notation. This conclusion contradicts Ekier's absolute view of the issue. 3) However, since 2016 there is another, a third (!) Urtext edition of op. 28 in the market, this time from Bärenreiter. The score is edited by Christoph Flamm and contains notes about various performance issues written by Hardy Rittner. I have not seen this edition yet, but I'm very curious to read what another Chopin expert and editor has to offer on this issue.

Thank you Greg. My favorit sentence is, he was thinking, what he wrote. This would help many musicians!
Hi Greg! Amazing video as always!
It would be so cool if you had a camera with overhead view! Maybe one day :)
I know many people do this. But It was never my style. But who knows.....

It's not 100% sure that this is Chopin's! We don't have proof
Z pewnością kolejny świetny film jak znajdę czas to od razu obejrzę. Ma Pan jeszcze w planach tego typu poradniki zrobić do etiud op.25?
Tak! Ale jeszcze nie potrafię podać konkretnego terminu

Yes, I will see..... Still didn't make a decision for 100%
