Your work is so professionally made, the cinematography, the technique, the interpretation, the way you explain just the right amount, hope your work gets more appreciations, keep it up
You're an absolute perfectionist and genius with the tutorials that you create! The cinematography and editing of this tutorial in particular is next level even compared to your past tutorials, which are already indisputably the best in UA-cam and beyond. Just incredible. Thank you!
I wanna say really thank you for your youtube videos. Your content, your crucial explanations, your attention to the most necessary points and your cinematographic shots were so beautiful and developing that I got compliments from my piano teachers. I really wanted to say thank you very much. You present the most influential piano content I have ever seen on social media. Your quality like a level of a conservatory teacher. I hope much larger audiences can enjoy your content. I also love the sheet music you added, it’s much more helpful than others on the social media. respects
I mostly agree on everything but the part from the left hand. Chopin is extremely well known for his constant singing in his music. Therefore, the right hand is not the one singing, it’s a whisper in the background for the left one. Makes more sense to me that the first note is the bass and the second note in each group of three is the singing note. Probably I’m wrong
This is a very helpful tutorial. It's really good! I am amazed at the speed of your fingers. The accompanying sheet music is a must to prevent our fingers from being tied into knots! My piano teacher never mentioned Exercises 3 and 4. I don't know why. If I ask him he will probably say he did mention them, but I just wasn't paying attention again. Thanks a lot for your help!
Interesting description by Schumann as charming, dreamy, and soft, in contrast to its "Bees" nickname. As you play it at speeds above 100, it also ceases to be p. To achieve this tempo, you need your piano action well regulated. I even sold my Yamaha S6 SH, which had a silent system that couldn't be regulated precisely, and got a purely acoustic Bösendorfer to play it. Yet, after many years, I still find it challenging!
This is superb - so clear, precise and concise. Not a word is wasted and in half an hour you cover a world of technical and interpretive guidance with this most beautiful Etude. And your performance is as fine as anything on YT. Hopefully there will be more to come please - especially on Chopin Etudes!
Hi, your tutorials became my central learning schedule. I am a beginner and I see so many things from your work, that‘s really amazing and motivating. It takes me a lot of time to dice into all that but subjectively every invested minute gives 5 minutes back in learning courve and joy. Thank you & all the best!
What a beautiful tutorial this is... although i am just a beginner... hearing and then actually seeing the advices and motion unfold has unlocked a new a way of thinking for especially with the left hand dynamics
This is so good, the quality is getting better! Could you do a tutorial for the revolutionary étude op.10 no.12? Learning that one at the moment and it would be very hepful!
Great vid! I don't know if you want recommendations of peices to make videos on but i would really like if you made a videl on Chopin's nocturne in Fm or/and C#m. Thanks, love your videos!
*I beg you:* please teach us to play something by *Scriabin,* sort of his preludes. From op. 16 any № (but preferably №1 or №4). From op. 11 something from №8 to №12
I will make videos on Scriabin’s (some) Etudes at some point, but I haven’t played much of his Preludes, so I can’t promise that will happen very soon, sorry.
I think Schumann was inspired by this etude and wrote his Impromptu Op. 90 No. 2. Or was it Chopin, on the contrary, who was inspired by his impromptu?
Isn't smorz. supposed to be slowing down? you interpret it as "dying" in terms of volume (as a dimin)? Also at least in the sheet music, the right hand's last Fm chord should be played fully, not just the upper C, right? (OK I saw in my version the F,Ab are indeed connected)
@@IgliKullolli-z5c I am afraid that it’s not a good idea to play this piece with a static wrist, not only for musical reasons but also to avoid injury.
Totally incorrect interpretation of the rhythm and meter, considering the fact that Chopin clearly indicates a duple meter. The RH needs to be maintained as triplets as opposed to feeling a 6/8 feel from the LH triplets. The LH is the cross rhythm and should not be felt as the beat, which is what makes this etude much more difficult than it seems. It is not two notes in the RH against one note in the LH. It is the 1+2+ feel of the triplets in the RH against the cross rhythm in the left. Please stop teaching this etude incorrectly!
Thanks for your comment. I want to emphasize that my interpretation is simply one perspective among many. It reflects the best understanding I could offer at that moment. I firmly believe in the importance of embracing diverse interpretations and opposing any notion of a singular 'correct' or 'incorrect' method, as such rigid classifications tend to stifle the richness of artistic expression. Moreover, promoting the consistent triplet feel in the right hand appears not only immensely challenging but also practically unattainable. Chopin's suggested tempo of 112 serves as compelling evidence against such an interpretation. I am not sure if you have seen the entire video, but I never asserted the necessity for the right hand to evoke a sense of 6/8 time, nor did I advocate for a ratio of "two" notes in the right hand against "one" in the left hand. Upon careful listening to my performance, you'll likely find that neither of these approaches is prominent in my interpretation. My focus has remained on Chopin's indication of this Etude being in duple meter, as evidenced by his initial draft in 2/4, which I include in the video. Ultimately, let's remember that music transcends mere numerical constructs. Our primary aim should always be to convey emotion and beauty through our performances. Warm regards!
@@Antune Sorry, but I must disagree with many of the claims in your response. I’m not trying to be negative or combative, but we are not at liberty to change anything the composer has indicated as a means to reaching or justifying “artistic expression” to make the technical and musical execution of the work easier. When it comes to what the composer has clearly indicated, there is no room for “diverse interpretations.” The rigid classification here is the meter, and that renders the RH triplets as the main metrical focus. Of course maintaining the triplets in the RH is immensely challenging! That’s the point that everyone has missed for decades. You might not think that you are advocating the incorrect interpretation of feeling the LH as the beat, but your practice suggestions of linking two notes in the RH to one note in the LH in the first few minutes of your video is inevitably going to cause performers to produce a 6/8 feel for the listener. My point is that Chopin did not intend for that to happen. Music in this style and Era does NOT transcend any numerical constructs, especially if the composer has clearly provided the basic notational information to begin learning the work correctly. The fact remains that the meter of this Etude is duple, the RH is the 1+2+ pulse in triplet subdivisions, and the LH is a cross-rhythm. Unfortunately, many, if not all, of the performances and tutorials on this Etude fail to stress this fact. I appreciate your efforts to help others play this Etude by suggesting practice techniques and such, but the difficulty of this Etude is extremely convoluted and enough so to rank it much higher in the list of hardest-to-easiest lists. It’s time we all start to think about this Etude as a true test of the performer’s ability to NOT fall into the easier 6/8 meter that makes this etude much easier to play. It’s just another example of how crafty and innovative he was in testing the limits…

I have never seen a tutorial with this level of quality! This tickles my brain the exact same way as one of those ASMR cooking videos.
Thank you! :)
Absolutely incredibly tutorials. The best quality I’ve seen on UA-cam actually.

Many thanks!
It shouldn't take that long.
Good luck!
This is so good, the quality is getting better!
Could you do a tutorial for the revolutionary étude op.10 no.12? Learning that one at the moment and it would be very hepful!
Thank you!
I am planning to do that in a couple of months.
Good advice again Antune 👍 next Liszt Ab major Liebenstrum...suggestions...
Thank you. Inspiring. Buying you a double espresso!
Bu video hayatımı kurtardi, teşekkür ederim, çoook iyi❤
Rica ederim, kolay gelsin! :)
Great vid! I don't know if you want recommendations of peices to make videos on but i would really like if you made a videl on Chopin's nocturne in Fm or/and C#m. Thanks, love your videos!
Thank you! F minor Nocturne is on my to-do list.
@@Antune Nice to know! Will be waiting for it. Keep up the good work 👍
It seems as lovely as this piece is, it is also a harder piece not for the beginner..it goes without saying
Yesss so cool excellent tutorial :))))
Thank you! Cheers!
These videos deserve millions of views. Incredbly valuable information, amazing teaching style and beautiful cinematography. Thank you
Thanks for the suggestion!
Happy to hear you enjoyed the videos.
I'm really really NOT used to hearing or listening to the F minor chord, but it sounds quite good
Thanks
U deserve a lot more subscribers
edit : i got u 100+ subs by sharing it.
I appreciate that!
@@Antune omg !
nice video! will you maybe do mozart k310 or ravel jeux d'eau.
im currently learning those :D
Excellent tutorial! Is the Ossia at the end really by Chopin (never heard it before on a recording)?
@@ulrichbecker9333 Thank you!
Yes, it is by Chopin. I also haven’t heard of it until three years ago :)
you dont think its that hard looking at the notes but the dynamics and wrist movement make it 10x harder
May i ask what you're handspan is you're hands look like they can easily hit a 13th
18:56 - Play-through in slower tempo (with pedals shown)
thoughts on a tutorial on rachmaninoff, etude in D minor? ( Op. 33, No. 4/No. 5) would be quiet nice. thanks! happy 2023
At some point, I want to make a video about it. But first, I'd like to cover some Etudes from Op.39.
Please shared the tutorial of schubert impromptu op. 90 no. 2
I am planning to do that in a couple of months!
Hi thanks so much can you do a tutorial of liebestraum by liszt ? Bye !!
I definitely will! Bye :)

I think Schumann was inspired by this etude and wrote his Impromptu Op. 90 No. 2.
Or was it Chopin, on the contrary, who was inspired by his impromptu?
This impromtu is by Schubert
can you make a tutorial of music by sofiane pamart please?
Isn't smorz. supposed to be slowing down? you interpret it as "dying" in terms of volume (as a dimin)? Also at least in the sheet music, the right hand's last Fm chord should be played fully, not just the upper C, right? (OK I saw in my version the F,Ab are indeed connected)
It means both! :)
I have a question... is there a polyrythm somewhere, and how do u play the r hand with the l hand together?
vous êtes si séreux bon professeur merci 😊😊
Can you teach the Op 25 Nº1 ? In A Flat
At some point, yes!
But there are other Etudes on the waiting list first.
❤️☘️
Arabesque no1 please🙏
It's on my to-do list!
@@Antune Thank you so much! I've been practicing this recently
Beautiful!
BTW, Paderewski also played the "ossia": ua-cam.com/video/TqtGKHx084A/v-deo.html
U guys see the shoes too right?
🙏👍❤

My teacher will kill me if i move the wrist like you do . Ive been struggeling try the wrist without motions
@@IgliKullolli-z5c I am afraid that it’s not a good idea to play this piece with a static wrist, not only for musical reasons but also to avoid injury.
