This piece is like the ups and downs of one's life. Words cannot describe the kinds of feelings that go through me when I watch someone play this. The first time I've watched a live performance of this was in Warsaw with full of tears. It was truly incredible

1 year ago, I don't like this piece... Always asked myself why Rousseau played this in his 1M sub celebration.. I listened to it again several times and now it's my favorite. Chopin's music are the best

I really admire her version of the piece most likely due to the fact that something is just inherently different by the way it is played. Not in the notes but rather, the intensity of emotion. Nonetheless whenever I am stressed out during a tournament set/match I'll always put this on and will instantly be calm. Excellent performance. Can't wait to listen to more of the Chopin songs you perform. ^^

ZackATTACK42 Ahh but of course. When Chopin is your favorite musical composer and you've listened to nearly all his works of beauty am I not allowed to call his masterpieces, true works of art? I mean look at our eras popular "music" I wouldn't dare call anything produced today "songs". To me the word song has the connotation that it is something of art, something that can truly be appreciated, understood, and felt. Sure in my opinion all Chopin's songs are masterpieces, but if I know as such why dull the word masterpiece? Let's stick to my complimenting of the pianist rather than shaming me due to word choice. Shame on you for not knowing my connotation of the word "song". haha :) (Just teasin')

English is an interesting language for me as it is tied for Euro-Portuguese as my native tongue although due to primary school I quickly was forced, in essence to forget Euro-Portuguese and further my English skills. To not deviate from the point of this thread, the use of the word "song" is subjective to my own connotation.

She weaves a powerfully communicative web here ! I've never heard anyone take the octaves as fast as Poon at 5:48 & on.

There's no doubt that Tiffany is a talented and brilliant young pianist. And I love the Ballade. But for me, she played it too... vivaciously and ambitiously. I think it needed less of everything, if that makes sense. There's only so much rubato you can play before it sounds too indulgent.

#TiffinatorSquad wer u at?

Technically superb. Personally I like more contrast in dynamics and tempo after the A major section - The waltz section was played so fast it was hard to make out the notes. Also I think the stretto chords leading up to the A major theme and again just before the coda were played way to loud - the music must spring forth from them and by playing the preceding bars more subtly the effect is enhanced. Overall very, very impressive though :-)
