Uploaded by: felixardanaz
Video Description:
Ondine, an oneiric tale of a water fairy singing to seduce the observer and accompany her to visit her kingdom deep at the bottom of the lake in the triangle of water, fire and earth. This piece contains technical problems for the right hand, like wild cadenza figures, chordal motifs, and chromatic notes and thirds.
