Love this etude!!! Prob one of the most underrated Chopin etudes

[@Octavio12341000]

Yes, totally underrated and has a unique sound

[@2muchz]

@@Octavio12341000 it kind of reminds me of the chopin op 10 no 5

[@kofiLjunggren]

Yes, I would say that these two are just as unique

[@lordgothajix527]

"havent played this piece over decade, so i missed note or two"
Don't flex on us mortals Josh

[@ivarsandvik9838]

Big F to us all

[@abhichakladar5279]

Very glad to see someone as knowledgeable and esteemed as yourself has taken the time to give us a tutorial on this rather underappreciated etude. Thank you very much Professor!
(Also nice haircut)

[@lczq6737]

One of the best pianists on earth

[@LASoundCrafter]

I have your recording of all the Chopin etudes, I guess released in 2011. Slight imperfections here and there but the overall technique and pure musicality are outstanding - you never seem to allow the overall line escape you. On the record cover you look very young.

[@Murcielag0scuro]

I've been waiting for this one! Thank you, Josh!

[@sevildogan1807]

this helps for a number of other pieces as well! Thanks Josh!

[@DenZhdanovPianist]

Thanks so much Josh, a truly valuable blog with really professional advises which inspired me to start my own one...

[@lczq6737]

I love the Chopin etudes. Josh have you any tutorials on Liszt transcendental etudes?

[@Max-yp1iw]

damn they are just so incredibly hard

[@lifepianolessons4681]

Josh great as always, very clear explanation 😁

[@derielrodiguez9590]

Thank you this helped alot

[@jamus1217]

Brilliant as usual. Thanks!

[@ivarsandvik9838]

Ah yes, I have waited for this. Thanks!

[@ollyhudson9931]

I would love it if you could please take the time to show us Chopins’ Etüde f - moll Op 10 and 9? That left hand is a killer to play...

[@Un1234l]

Lovely.
Bummed there's no full recording of you playing this with polish.

[@LASoundCrafter]

I believe there is - he recorded all the etudes many years ago. I have it on Apple Music.

[@Lucas-dg5wc]

Wow, I am learning this at the moment. What a coincidence

[@KangarooCrap]

great tutorial josh I was wondering if you were planning on uploading pro practices for the transcendental etudes

[@dennisg.9887]

Would you please so kind to explain me how I can learn to read notes for the piano without having lesson in music schools. Can I train my skills through UA-cam videos or should I buy me some books. What do you think ? Thank you

[@LB-ow6lp]

There's a lot of examples on Pinterest. It helped me a lot together with these tutorials of Josh. 🍀 good luck

[@michieldolfing]

Hey Josh, thanks for this video! Could you maybe consider doing a ProPractice video on Ravel's Sonatine, if you have learned it? Thanks! 🎼

[@rongtanaka8361]

I feel like all your video volume is very low compared to other youtubers. Increasing the overall volume is much appreciated.

[@reynardmoses]

Hey Josh , you're one of my inspiration to play piano, do yo have love's sorrow rachmaninoff tutorial ?

[@Andy_a7]

Hi Josh! How did place you a camera on the ceiling? and thank you for promoting classical music!
p.s. 3d E note above middle C is a bit out of tune ;)

[@benarochmodiin5264]

[@thatguy928]

Zimmerman’s the best Chopin interpreter bar none

[@metteholm4833]

Hands 7-7½ = need of focus on relaxing right hand between chords.

[@Noah-cb5gh]

Much easier than liszt's etude d'apres paganini no 6

[@bjbmbc]
