Personally, this is absolutely fantastic playing. The pianist at the same
use of different orchestral instruments offers the time
most touching, relaxing and surprising piece. From the
start, It resembles the story of an old man who keeps Influenced by
recalling about his life. I could imagine of his tragic Franz Schubert,
love life. It is developing a sense of empathy for the an Austrian
song along with understanding. The intensity of the composer
song increase after few minutes. This creates
excitement and panicky among the audience and the orchestral
musician. The change of tempo creates a little bit of chamber
confusion. There is a scary tone of the song at the choral
middle part of the song. To conclude, I feels like there piano
is no connection between the first and last part of the
song. Each part passed on different emotional feeling.
