A M A Z I N G ! Virtuoso playing way beyond super, Cole! Your analysis was informative (the text was good, though not a patch on seeing you!) - but your performance was dazzlingly stupendous! Earl Wilde's arrangement is testament to his genius and the sheer exuberance of the original Gershwin. I hope the cross-country move went well . . . but it won't have had anything like the excitement and pizazz of this Etude!

Well, the piece certainly lives up to its title! This is my favorite of the Gershwin/Wild etudes I've seen from you so far. I know you said the sixteenth notes in the waltz section aren't as hard as they sound, but that really isn't saying much! Fantastic job!

Glad you liked it! Yeah, you can never believe the Waltz section is possible until you actually manage to play it :-)

Damn it I wish Wild was still with us so I could write to him and tell him how brilliant his arrangements are. Your excellent analyses emphasise that further It took me months to learn Gershwin’s own 2 page setting, I’m never going near this one ! Cole do you play these from memory or use music ? Great video, very agile performance (how many takes , go on, we are all friends here …). Awesome work “Move across country” you’re moving again !! 😮
