I finally got around to splitting this video which I recorded three weeks ago I believe :p
This is one of my favourite Schubert pieces. The main melody is just AMAZING in its happiness and serenity, it really works perfectly.
It's also very very hard to play well... There are lots of arpeggios all over the place which are surprisingly hard to pull off, and what's interesting is that both hands are completely on an equal footing: there are few things that are played by one hand and not by the other.
All in all I think I played a little too fast, but that was because I didn't have much time left on the camera...
