I've always loved Chopin's 1st ballade even though some might say it's over played. but I think it deserves to be revisited all the time because it really has everything you could ask for (magical melodies, emotional climaxes, virtuous challenges..etc)
And yes that's me playing hope you like it😁

Jien dejjem ħabbt il-ballata 1 ta' Chopin anki jekk xi ħadd jista' jgħid li qed tiġi mħallta wisq. Imma naħseb li jixraqlu li tiġi riveduta dejjem għax verament għandha kollox li tista' titlob għalih (melodiji maġiċi, klimax emozzjonali, sfidi virtuożi..eċċ)
U iva, jien li qed nilgħab, nispera li jogħġbok😁
