    Projecting my perception of the vocal parts was actually such an interesting exercise. I'm less of a fan of this particular opera than Madama Butterfly and Turandot, but it sure is fun and uplifting to hear and play. Puccini's music really captures with nuance the down-to-earth human quality of music in a natural way which is enabled by the sufficiently free use of complex harmonies, something I've been craving alongside the more epic, expansive, and virtuosic pieces by Ives, Sorabji, and Medtner.

    I appreciate you bringing out the vocal lines, because I literally have flashbacks of the opera with your playing. Both watching it with the score and listening in the background is so satisfying.

    I love your reduction series, you're really great at it. I hope to hear more of these orchestral, opera, and concerto reductions. Can you play the Alkan transcription of Mozart Piano Concerto in D minor?

    When I got to around 3:00 I was bracing for impact because from experience, the upcoming tremolos which are so characteristic of a lot of piano transcriptions of orchestral music doesn't really do a great job of really conveying the original orchestral part and usually ends up kind of annoying to hear xD. However then I heard you play it and I have never heard a more convincing way of playing those.
    tldr: epic playing

    Hehe Tosca when? Absolutely amazing playing and interpretation. Unique in a pianistic perspective of operatic conversations apart from the big lyrical parts. Thanks for this performance, we need more opera without words that actually works😅

      Might be on and off when it comes to posting these opera transcriptions since I mostly just learn and record it on impulse

    Would love to see you tackle the piano reduction to Wozzeck someday. Berg seems like it would be right in your wheelhouse, plus it would be a great practice/study resource for people learning Wozzeck (myself included)

      Is there a solo piano transcription for that?

      @@Musicforever60 no, just the orchestral reduction on IMSLP
