F. Chopin - 24 Etudes for Piano Op.10 , Op 25
For the first time ever the complete set of Chopin's Etudes on Video !   See and listen to the work which is justly considered the ultimate in difficulty - both musically and technically - Chopin's 24 Etudes . Even such piano giants as Pollini and Ashkenazi unfortunately did not leave any video trace of their recording of this piece , let  alone modern performers who grew accustomed to literally " cutting and pasting  "  the pieces together during a recording session - more a marvel of editing than of music-making .  It was up to the artist who first came to fame as the one who turned the tide of sterile and over-perfected recordings with her release of unedited studio recordings . Now she is taking it one radical step further allowing You , the listener , to fill like you are sitting right next to the piano  This is a first  opportunity to be able to watch Chopin Etudes  from the unique vantage point of performer herself . Never before were the cameras so close up to the red-hot keyboard , following the hands like the pianist's eyes would do . The magnificent sound comes from 1923 Wigmore Hall Boesendorfer Concert Grand Piano.
