Brahms Ballade 10.4 (remastered)
This is perhaps my favorite of the recordings I’ve made for In the Hands — and the remastering really helps. The piece is very low throughout, and the low notes before had a murky, cottony quality. Now they’re rich and clear, and all the subtle little motions in the depths shine through. I only wish you all could hear this without all the MP3 artifacts!
My commentary on the piece itself is in the original posting.

Your recording of this piece has increased my interest in Brahms. I play it for friends to show them what a piano recording should sound like.
Great piece! Wish I could play like that… glad I found something soothing to use in presentations! Will gladly reccomend your site!
After listening to this recording for the first time about 2.5 years ago, i keep coming back to this very one (sometimes a few others) for it’s deep, dark, just gorgeous sound. Brahms rocks!
