I'd rather play than march!

ann

How quickly does he play this?! I had to do this as a piece in a competition once many, many years ago in our local town hall. I set off at quite a rate, faster than I'd practised, nerves I suppose, but somehow managed to get to the end. The comments from the judges were that it sounded rather breathless! Nobody told me I was supposed to breathe as well! Anyway, hope you enjoy this performance.

P.S. I won!!

Well done for winning, Ann!

(I’ve often heard this piece in recitals but not as fast as Lang Lang plays it.)

I love Dave Brubeck‘s different approach to the title - Fazil Say has quite a cool slant on it, too.

I thought he took it rather slowly.
