<p>Xie Tianjian<br />Haydn Sonata in C major, 1st movement<br />Very crisp playing and good voicing. Although you have good contrast in character, I think the sound can be much more varied. In the more relaxed parts you can explore a warmer and more legato sound and also the shape of the phrases can change slightly and not always be so straight forward. Give dramatic importance to the pauses as well, do not just count them.<br />Liszt La Leggierezza<br />Again, very crisp playing, but it could use a more legato, warmer and lusher sound. Great clarity and very exciting playing, but I think this piece could use more contrasts. Warmth and lightness will make it more beautiful and even more exciting. <br />Chopin Scherzo in e major<br />Very good performance.Commanding and very clear conception. Again, I would have loved more contrasts in sound and perhaps a little more time between phrases, for added clarity and structural definition. Long, sweeping lines could be freer and less straight forward. </p>
