4:10 why is the chord 2 tones above of what you really play in the paper sheet?
i used to be able to play this before my kids were born. Not at all perfect but all the way. After 4 years, I'm half way through again. The hardest parts are yet to come
Dear Paul, thank you very much for your marked score! I am just starting working on this master piece, while realizing the original score is not enough to play it as it shall be. Many many thanks!

Amazing!!
Thank you so much sir for the wonderful tutorial 🥹🫶 I find this pieces is very very difficult to digest, but after watching the whole video, feels like it's getting better much much much more! 🫶
So much praise from others, yet pretty much no one points out whats wrong. The way this person has learned this piece is incorrect. From 03:57–04:02 you have to hold those half notes, yet he throws them away this is the most annoying thing. It's what adds more to musicallity and distinguishes great musician. Not to mention wrong chords/with skipped notes in many other parts. Person is skilled, but this piece was played dismissively.
Thanks for the practice notes, I am actually gonna play this

Thank you you’re are the best!
best song
Great pedagogy showing by example how to play a wonderful piece of music. Knowing that you have a family and that you are engaged with your community as well as being a top-flight artist and teacher adds even more appreciation for me of your music. Thank you!

Wowww!!! So much respect. Amazing work.
My dearest Paul, this performance is frankly heavenly. The pitiful human mind cannot comprehend this outstanding performance. Your level of playing transcends all of us mere mortals. Your dexterity is biblical and your technique is sensational. All of us must look up to you as a God, and that’s the least we can do.
Seems like there's a couple bars of missing sheet music around 7:33 (bars 153, 154). Otherwise great video!
Lovely video. Ballade 1 kind of makes up for all the shit humanity has done in the last 80 thousand years. Like, it justifies our existence as a species…
this felt like three minutes, i can't believe this was ELEVEN minutes long! This is probably the most beautiful piano piece ever written
My favorite version of the coda i have ever seen. ever.
I madly love this piece, sometimes it seems to give me some kind of heart attacks, p.s: thanks for the tutorial and the beautiful performance.

Amazing… and Paul makes it sound so easy – like "just another day at the office" 🙂
Amazing Paul! I have somehow never heard this Ballade before, and it is an amazing piece of lyrical genius and your expression highlights every facet of it. I could go on and on but obviously you know every bit of it and even more amazing is that you are enabling others to channel this expression by following your careful tutorial! I think this piece in totality is a little beyond me but I would love to start with a few sections because you make it look so enjoyable to play. 🙂 Bravo!

Thank you so much!!! This lesson has been very helpful to me.
These first few sconds of music just before Paul starts to introduce the video… Instantly got Yuzuru Hanyu in mind. 😀
Wow!

Lovely. It' s the one that was played on the Pianist movie when the German soldier found the Jewish pianist. It was so beautiful.
