nyankoframeI went for dinner with ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
itsacz last night at Bellevue Square, and after dinner we were wandering around for a while, and we found a music store. It was like offering a dying man water. :P
He ended up buying a ring-bound collection of 75 pieces (I saw some too, and one of them even had The Banjo and Kitten on the Keys as novelty solos!!), while I bought three scores. One was a collection of Scott Joplin's rags (I didn't know the Maple Leaf Rag had words...), and the other two were a set of Chopin's Ballades and Nocturnes each, including the famous Ballade no. 1 in G minor, which was featured in The Pianist.
And I decided to try it.
...
I must be insane. :D
But I can get (somewhat) through the first 5 and a half pages, although it of course sounds nothing at all like what it's supposed to be... ^^;;;;;I doubt I'll ever reach "Maksim"'s standard, much less a professional recording...
Edit: You can buy the soundtrack here on Amazon.com.
