Mr.Sawada You are my favorite on this Chopin competetion. There are so many good pianist in the world, but pianist who can move, touch listener's heart is rare and that's you my dear. I kept awake middle of the night to watch you playing the piano. I adore you so much, and thanks to know you and your chopin. You are the best to me. Biggest love from South Korea🇰🇷
Thank you for doing the impossible and generously showing your music to the rest of the world. What a thoughtful and grand performance. You’re a gifted pianist with such strong foundation. Don’t ever stop playing!!!
가슴을 크게 울리는 너무나도 아름다운 소리입니다. 연주를 듣고난 후 바로 팬이 되어버렸고, 우승하시길 기원하고 있습니다. Miss-touch는 신경쓰지 않는 편이라 그마저도 너무 좋게 들었지만 아무래도 경쟁을 하는 대회이기 때문에 조마조마했습니다. 부디 긴장하지 마시고 소나타와 협주곡 같은 대곡들도 잘 소화하시길. 언젠가 꼭 라이브로 듣고 싶습니다. 🙏 🙏🙏
Савада сан! Я желаю, чтобы даже тень печали или горечи не коснулась вашей прекрасной души. Оставьте эти чувства нам, вашим почитателям, пожалуйста! Судьи или жюри это не высшая инстанция! Не изменяйте себе и наша любовь всегда будет с вами! Спасибо за эпически прекрасное исполнение! Желаю вам много, много счастья!
Your playing was just so beautiful and transparent! Hopefully, there will be chances for us to listen your live concerts somewhere in Japan or the world!
Can someone transcribe his interview in the comments so I can translate it into English? Not only I admire his performance but the message he sends. Despite the language barrier, I can feel his sincere love for Chopin’s music and he shows it like no other during the performance. Thank you Mr Sawada.
“Today, in the middle of the first piece, I got blood in my head and played not calmly. I regret that I dragged that into my next performance. But my main thought was to just have fun. Before the performance, I was the most nervous and stiff I've ever been. But I remembered all the fun things that had happened since I arrived in Warsaw, and I looked at the photos I had taken with various people, and I tried to have fun and enjoy my performance. I have a few regrets about tonight's performance, but I think I achieved that goal. Thank you very much to everyone who has been watching my performances in Japan. And I'm sorry for keeping you up so late at night. After this, many people, Japanese and pianists from other countries, will be performing, so please support them as well. Your messages are encouraging the pianists, so I hope you will support them in various places. Thank you very much. I put a lot of effort into this program, first of all because it was a collection of my favorite pieces, and secondly because I was most particular about the Barcarolle, a late piece by Chopin. I played it through study and trial and error, trying to find a way to express mature but contradictory emotions without being too outwardly expressive.”
If you turn to be a medical doctor ,you can write prescription like “Chopin piano concert 2 in F minor ,OP 21 at h.s. PRN for sleep. That what I am using it!! It works very very good! We had to fight against this terrible Corona Virus so many Chopin’s music helped me to go this virus.
