Chopin – Etude Op. 10 No. 1 (Waterfall)

Chopin was only 19 years old when he wrote this etude dedicated to his dear friend Franz Liszt. The piece is often nicknamed “Waterfall” because of the impressively fast arpeggios played. I hope you enjoy this moment.

Here we have an extraordinary performance by Valentina Lisitsa, one of the best pianists of our time. Have you heard this study by Chopin? What do you think of Valentina?
