I think you misunderstood me a little, but the blame is all mine. I use "modern music" to specifically refer to 20th and I guess 21st century classical music, and I believe you have stated, at least in the past, that you don't listen to much of it or have a particularly high tolerance for it. If I'm mistaken I apologize. I don't mean all music written within the vaguely defined boundaries of our "modern" era.

This is really nice for a modern take on this musical style.
But is it actually a polonaise?

I was learning the Violin and kinda found the Vibrato technique. I found it hard to learn. Really did.
I was wondering, is inducing rapid, but soft pressure on the strings with the left hand fingers is included in the Vibrato technique?

Shouldn't your teacher take care of that stuff?
I don't really understand what you mean by pressure in this case, but from what I understand vibrato in strings is a rapid fluctuation of pitch produced by wrist motion that rolls the tip of your finger back and forth.
I don't play any strings myself, but the usual approach to learning anything new while avoiding mistakes is to take it slow and steady. It might be a good idea to practice slow pitch fluctuation at first. As you get comfortable, you gradually increase the speed of the fluctuations, until it turns into vibrato.
Don't take my words for granted though.
EDIT: This seems to be a cool video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s8OT7EFKE78

Mozart would kick Micheal Jackson's ass.
But in the end, they would fuck.

So this is the worst rendition of Chopin's famous impromptu op. 66 I've ever listened to. But it seems to be really popular for some reason. I think this pianist was also hired to play the impromptu in this piano documentary.
I've never heard a more rushed playing in my life. It's as if "rubato" and "cantabile" were completely thrown out the window in favour of flashy speed and technique.
Am I the only one outraged at Lin's popularity despite her complete lack of musicianship?

Spoiler below!
Paganini's 24th Caprice in A Minor by Alexander Markov.
I think it's very quick, speedy, but you still get the precision with the notes. The tempo is quasi-presto, and that's really fast. Also, his string crossing is fast and he didn't hit the other strings!
The trill at 2:10 is really nice.
He's playing really fast at 2:40 - 2.55 and that's really cool.
His left hand pizzicato is superb.
And at the end, it's also a good ending.
What do you guys think?
