February 23 - March 1: Listening/Instrumental Assignment (remember that listening assignments apply to the weeks during which the listening is assigned.)

This next year we will be focusing on one major concert pianist each month. This month is Vladimir Ashkenazy

Check out his website (and concert schedule) a little bit each week: http://www.vladimirashkenazy.com/

Ashkenazy playing Chopin Nocturne in E-flat major: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IvDbx7UVCqE

Question: Who recently played this in our studio? What do you like about Ashkenazy's interpretation?

  1. I want to say someone, but I think its wrong... so... I love the way he brings out the melody. Each note sounds perfect. He sounds completely relaxed and flawless.
