Fantasie Impromptu. A beautiful piece of art written by Chopin. Good, jazzy interpretation.

Cam is a little on a slow side , and longer movements of left hand are almost not visible . That is my assumption why the title is "Watch his left hand" .
Anyway , the fingers on the right hand are almost invisible because of the speed that they move ...
I do not play the piano (and I never did ) but i think that orion is right that the right hand is doing most of the work here .

The "simple" left hand is much harder to play, because of the distance he has to cover. It's about long range precision. Hitting 10 free throws in a row is much easier than hitting 10 in a row from downtown. Just look at where HE is looking and you get a feel for it. The stuff on the right hand he can pretty much play while talking to his wife and feeding the kids at the same time - even though it sounds more impressive.

#7 is right, it's about those distances he does. I can understand that for non-musician the right hand is most impressive but for a professional it's not. I can honestly say that my right hand can do the speed but it's my left hand that is always dragging behind.
Try an experiment, put two coins on table, 34cm apart (i have no idea what that is in inches cause that is not a real unit). Try hitting them alternatively with your left hand eyes closed.. Yeah, now put 24 in a row and try hitting them in any sequence, with your eyes closed. Then put 5 for the left hand, in a row and try tapping 1st, 3rd and 5th as fast as you can... Which one is easier? Then do both, at the same time.. You can still hit the fast right hand part put your coins are now all over the place. Pick them up and start saving for a real instrument.
