Re: Elégie

Really gorgeous composition and playing!

You seem to have a deep connection with the particular pianos you choose to use. I saw a YouTube where a dude was saying that the problem with Pianoteq presets was that people need to play "with" them. They are vastly expressive, but the performer may not know how to tap into that particular wondrousness, etc...  midrange sweet spot for quiet chords, etc. except through practice.

Wow! Beautiful - who has taught you to play so beautifully? I had to close my eyes and remembered my son. What a wonderful Elegie. For me this is so nostalgic, melancholy, pensive - Thank you Borealis!
Best wishes,

Thanks for your compliment, Jeff ! Much appreciated. Sakamoto reminiscences, maybe ?

This dude seems to be right. Yes, choosing the right preset is an important thing too. And the fxp made by sskuk1, is really inspiring (gave him five).

Cheers !

Thanks a lot, Stig ! I've learned piano with a classical pianist, Mrs Culbertson, a long time ago. Her husband was tubist at the Bordeaux Orchestra. I don't know what she became...

All the best !

Re: Elégie

beautiful piece!  i really like the chord progression.  there's a beautiful color change in there.  also the preset is awesome, thanks for making it available in the corner.

Re: Elégie
