Nao Mieno - Chopin Piano Competition 2015 (preliminary round)

[@limitstoprogress]

Great to see young people doing so well!! Thank you, Nao!

[@fars1d3s]

She produces sweet, lush beautiful sounds everywhere, even in the Etudes. Her Nocturne, Mazurka and Scherzo are just what you would expect from Chopin. And her Mazurka is probably the most musical you'll hear at this competition. You can tell Chopin is her favorite composer.

Even the first note that she played was absolutely beautiful, I fell in love in the first minute.

I really REALLY loved her Scherzo, magnificent.

[@b_nadams]

UNA EXCELENCIA

[@carraze]

bravo !!!

[@militaryandemergencyservic3286]

nice

[@zisiguo6852]

At first sight I do not like her somehow stiff fingers and wrists, but her performance style grows on me. It's real strength, no the same thing as stiffness.

[@sender1496]

Nothing stiff at all? I love her technique, it's excellent

[@vcupiano]

Sen Der yeah her wrists are held extremely low but no stiffness that I can see.

[@lukeehrkepiano5061]

That is one of the fastest Op. 10 No. 2's I've ever seen...

她好美

[@AaronCsc]

Who won didn't really matter. It's a matter of preference of interpretation. I personally did not prefer the winner's playing either, some Korean dude. But hey, the ability to compete in such a competition itself is already a respectable accolade.

[@HaploPrime]

Anyone here because of Your Lie in April?

[@toxicbullets10]

[@李昌育-i7j]

她幾歲阿，我不知道

[@gunjo306]

李昌育 这个人好像是东京艺大的研究生

[@marieeugenieguerini8358]

B

[@gunjo306]

这个练习曲No.8比Eric Lu逊色不少，看出东京艺大和柯蒂斯的差距

[@gunjo306]

No.10-2又比刘凯特差的太多，没辙

Beautiful
