ExclusiveChopin: Etude Op. 25 no. 10 in B minor - 'Octave'

【Classical music and nature 古典音樂小站】Frederic Chopin: Etude Op. 25 no. 10 in B minor - 'Octave'. This beautiful piece was played by Edward Neeman. It has Creative Commons license (Public Domain Mark 1.0 Universal) and is provided through www.musopen.org.

Chopin's Étude Op. 25 No. 10 could be considered one of the more difficult of the 24 (or 27) Études .... the rapid octaves, while not easy, aren't as difficult as some of the other pieces in his Étude series.

I read in a commentary that the octaves themselves are not a problem, but connecting them legato and holding the inner notes with the fingers rather than the pedal. This seems to require a lot of wrist flexibility to pull off.

And that Chopin's Étude Op. 25 No. 10 might therefore be considered one of the more difficult of the 24 (or 27) Études.
