Etude Op.10 No.6 in E flat MinorFrederic Chopin (1810 - 1849)911:10
       
Katniss Li, Piano
Unlike his other virtuosic piano studies, Chopin’s Etude Op.10 No.6 was regarded as a challenging piece in terms of balancing the bass, the middle voice and the melody. One couldn’t stop picturing a doleful image listening to this music. Interestingly, the tempo people play it in is half or even a third of what Chopin originally wrote.
  
  
Piano Sonata No.13 in B flat MajorWolfgang Amadeus Mozart (1756 - 1791)
        First movement
Katniss Li, Piano
The first movement of this sonata gives off a lively character. It is a standard sonata with its exposition in B flat Major; then transition into F Major. The development contains a bit dramatic colour when the music falls on F minor. And it all goes back to the tonic at the end.
