<p>Liu Pinxin<br />Liszt Waldesrauschen – The title of the piece calls for “whispers” or “murmurs” – it was often too heavy and too aggressive. the long melodic lines should be shaped better, with more elasticity. try to keep the tempo at the climax of the piece. pay more attention to different texures. </p><p>Beethoven Sonata Op.2 no.3 – overpedaled in many places. The character could be more playful in the beginning. there are many contrasting sections in this movement – make sure that those differences are clearly communicated.</p><p>Chopin Scherzo no. 2 – very well played – the most successful of the three pieces. careful with the pedal, explore more legato in the lyrical passages, more difference between the melodic and accompanying textures.</p>
