Chopin: Ballade No. 4 in F minor (Op. 52)

Changing the mood a bit and sharing some symphonic music!

I've been discovering this ballade for about 4 months (though I haven't practiced every day). Fixed a few noticeable defects in the recording.

Because I've been playing the digital piano a lot, my control over volume and voices isn't fantastic. The D-flat huge part before the coda and the coda itself still needs more practice with a metronome.

The sheet music in the video is the National Edition variation from IMSLP, but I didn't use this variation for practicing.
