Which piano piece sounds better?

[Apulu_Imback]

Experience by Ludovico Einaudi

Nuvole Bianche by Ludovico Einaudi

Both the pieces by my favourite Italian pianist. I have learnt the original version of Nuvole Bianche perfectly but I was wondering which one would be better to perform on stage for music competition? For 'Experience' I don't have a violinist, it's solo performance.

This is the original piece of 'Experience'. It's mind-blowing with violin and stuff but I'm worried about it a little since it may sound bland with only the piano because you can hear violin is overpowering in the orginal piece.

yeah the first one sounds so melancholic i like that one more.

2nd one is good too, has a bit more of a melody and rhythm to it.

but first one has it for me. and actually it made me think of this famous piece right here:

I like the first piece better, but prefer the piano tone of the second.

[Apulu_Imback]

Yes because the second one is a pure piano pieces while the first is along with violin.

I notice that the average person tends to prefer hearing faster & more aggressive stage piano performances with more arpeggios in it. Like a very virtuosic & showy way of playing. So, if these two were my only options, I'd go with the first one if I were trying to impress &/or compete.

[Apulu_Imback]

First one is great but the problem here is, the competition is solo. The first one will sound a bit plain without the violin, infact in the original piece the violin is overpowering. I won't have a violin accompaniment. Considering the fact that you can only hear the piano music of the first piece and the second, which one is better?

[Sonorous]

I still like the first one. But I am kinda biased because I've heard both many times before & love the first one the most. 🤣

[Apulu_Imback]

Alright! Thanks for your opinion!

They both have their own place, it totally depends upon my mood which masterpiece i pick.

[Apulu_Imback]

This, can you do this on Paino? 🙃

[Apulu_Imback]

Yes, I can. Give me a week and I'll cover it. Good choice!

[lazermazer]

Make it simple, don't try to add twists and all, kinda spoils the whole music.

Ok why i am in Pink? Wtf

Well, it's April's fool day today. Gag switches the color like this every April fools day.

[lazermazer]

Oh yeah, i knew they do this but forgot the date. 😆

[Nikki1989]

Experience. I love that piece.

[Apulu_Imback]

The original piece is so powerful.

[Nikki1989]

Yes it is. Pure emotion.
