You can tell that the kids in that family who stayed and watched the whole thing play piano, it looked as though they pleaded with their parents to stay and watch the whole thing. I’m glad there’s so many kids like that who have such an appreciation for classical music
I became entranced with classical music. I’ve always loved music but once I hear classical, my mind instantly knew this was more than music. It transcends beauty itself. Then I taught myself how to play starting with random favorites ( moonlight sonata movement 1 ) then going to chopin… I used to joke around about the dudes who made faces when they played but I know that feeling they have and started doing it as well, it’s art. I love the piano
Kou Music Yeah actually, I asked him to perform this ballade and he said he didn’t have too much time. You can hear him say “short version” in the beginning. Still he performed perfectly 👏
Playing at original tempo in such a crowded place where anyone is hardly gonna listen and comprehend the emulation is not worthy anyways. Whatever he has played is commendable considering the exodus of public there.
We are blessed in Prague that we can admire such a super talent on the streets. I think he can play almost everything perfect. Peter Meso is a super talent and he gets even better every day!
Putting smiles on peoples' faces with the help of some chopin and mad skills. >D Great! ... little fast but man, who can say I played Chopin's Ballade no. 1 too fast D:
The last seconds where the Asian dad positions his son in front of the piano like “see here now! If you weren’t lazy you would have been playing this at age 7 like your cousin!”
He does not care how he played as no one else did. If he played some popular music he'd have a crowd. But a Chopin Ballade...nah, just keep walking....fools.
Way to fast, the way you played it took away the emotional part and feeling of the song, and that should be the part that you should be focusing on, not destroying the piece.
Just listen (or read the comments for that matter)... He said he was in a hurry, wouldn't be able to fit the whole piece and will play a 'short version' instead. He was asked to play this. He accommodated to the best of his abilities.
@@heyho4488 Then he should not have played it at all. Time should not conflict with a piece, it is meant to be played right. This is just an example of how time can destroy a perfect piece.
The technique is incredible but man this speed ruined the piece. I wish I could play it all like you do but I would definitely play it alot slower. It’s a roller coaster of emotions, so imagine transferring all that with that high speed. You focus all your attention on pressing the keys but where is the emotion
This song isn't difficult based on its technical difficulty (even though it's hard ash technically) he rushed it so much and had no dynamic control and when he couldn't play fast enough to keep up with his original tempo he slowed down causing it to sound all wishy-washy and terrible. This piece is meant to be played slowly and then suddenly you explode into flames in the coda but this is just super dry and unenthusiastic. In his coda, his voicing was utterly terrible so his left hand drowned out his right hand preventing the melody from being heard and he made so many mistakes that could be easily prevented if he didn't rush. Its a shame to see this, and always remember to practice more don't be like this guy!
Playing this piece too fast is a problem I wish I had
Piece not song
Who is singing... and the lyrics?
@@youmiau i didn't know it took 2 people to say the same thing for the person to understand

A street pianist not playing "A river flows in you"? I'm in love
or boogie woogie lol
I bet he could play it really beautifully if he played it at it's normal speed
and on a real piano
@@sergiodefreitas1965 and without just mashing the pedal
Was the pianist in a hurry for the train or something? lol
Just joking, the technique was amazing overall.

If he takes too long of a pause, everyone will just start clapping and there's no stopping that

if you dont understand it, dont say its perfect
Grand virtuoso. I hope Deutsche Gramophone finds him!
He looks like a stereotype of an American tourist but plays like a god. Amazing performance!!!!
At least you know it but your speed is crazyy slow down it sound majestic if u do
Storm Rider do you like this? ua-cam.com/video/MNWYcpRJLmo/v-deo.html
Children Story Teller can u stop linking this same video on literally every chopin video pls. Im just trying to read comments in peace.
Splendid performance in such a crowded place
Ballade 1, one of my favourites by chopin
... my favorite too and maybe one of the difficultest to play
It's a masterpiece and it takes a long time to learn this
Ive never heard anyone play 2:53 that way. Im not sure how i feel about it , either
a bit sacrilegious
He says he didn't have enough time for playing the original version so he kinda avoided most of rests
incorrect rhythm and accents so i personally don’t like it but if he’s just rushing because he needs to leave it’s understandable
@@damland1357xDD
NO ONE IN RUSH WOULD PLAY A STREET PIANO
Man I got so nervous for him on that coda lol, but he pulled through!👏🏼👏🏼
Bruh he's actually playing it all from memory
SELF ESTEEM GO BRRRR
Playing Chopin’s ballade on the street in Prague. Life goal.
He is a street pianist and street pianist's usually have their own style. It's not like hes playing in a concert.
That was frikkin fire! 🔥
At least u played the whole master piece
Gotta feel bad for the couple who stayed there for 70% of the song, and then left before the best part.

Beautiful
Nailed is bit wrong he did play wrong notes but on electric piano on the streets and this tempo is amazing
Chopin Blade n1 op 23 in g minor
Literally everyone came in the last 10 seconds
The last seconds where the Asian dad positions his son in front of the piano like “see here now! If you weren’t lazy you would have been playing this at age 7 like your cousin!”
It’s nice and all but rhythm is literally all over the place, listen to Tiffany Poon play it
He was in hurry because he had to go somewhere
Bravo
Ive seen him there he was incredible. I asked for canon to be played
He is a street player , good ,verry good but street player......
when you practice 40 hours a day
Increadible
YOU CAN SEE THE LAST TWO GIRLS THAT CAME ONE OF THEM KNEW THE SONG AND BOBBED HER HEAD AHHH!!!!
wtf why does he have 19 subs, he deserves more.
Una pieza simplemente maravillosa....hasta las lágrimas. Saludos desde Chile.
Yey…chopin🔥🔥🔥
He does not care how he played as no one else did. If he played some popular music he'd have a crowd. But a Chopin Ballade...nah, just keep walking....fools.
Amizing pianist ahahaha
I like it -- usually it's too slow for my tastes :) This version is exciting.
Hey Mr everything, please upload some more amazing outdoor piano performance, thank you 😂🥳
amaizing but it is beter if you less fast
how can anybody even dislike this
Cause he played it too fast, for my opinion is a good pianist but I didn't like his performance
This piece would be played in 9/10 minutes, he literally played it in 6.30 minutes
I think he played too fast is because he just wanna show the audience the best part and it's okay
It's not that perfect...... but it's really good 💯 he needs some more practice. Keep it up......... sorry to say this but you ruined this 🙏
1:56 asian boy: ez
The title makes it sound like a porn advertisement 😂🤣
EXCELLENT execution though!!!

He says short version at the beginning because he didn’t have time. Also I don’t think the uploader is the one who performed 😅
It was great! But it sounded pretty messy at the coda which is pretty understandable since the difficulty of it
Playing Chopin in shorts is such disrespectful!
Sir this is 6 minutes long
tempo
Chopin Balade n°1 opus 23 in g minor
I apologize, but it sounds like a complete other piece. I can notice nothing by Chopin.
A little saucy one. That is one Sacriligious boi.
LINGLING WANNABE
Balade no 1
He plays it so causally...
SLOW DOWN.
He didn't have much time to play it.
@Mr Wiseman oof
read the other comments...
He's tryna show the best part of this piece
Is it me or does he has some physical resemblance to Chopin?
Sorry! Is very fast!!!
ballade 1
a lot of mistakes but very good.
What model is it?
It's my favorite Song (i'm a pianist)
Lmao if u a pianist them call it a piece 😵😂

Song lmao
I'm italian and i'm so young sorry
theres some key didnt get registered, polyphony not enough damn
*Koczalski wants to know your location*
yeah its impressive that hes fast but thats not nailing i couldnt feel any emotions

Too dirty and fast in the Coda part, needs more interpretation
too fast and no hard, no felling
He has no time so he is speading.....🤣
Your rythm is a bit off and the tempo is too fast. Overall, great performance.
He plays the piece very fast and that gives him a very bad interpretation.
Not nearly enough emotion and no rubato. Shame really.
To fast brother,not emotional
I um.. honest opinion but I dislike it due to incorrect rhythm and the sheer number of wrong notes lol
yo tocaba asi pero me dio cancer :'v posdata: muy bueno
And this is what years of piano practice with no heart or soul into it looks like. Feel bad for him. Maybe he can't hear the keys?
ThatBoyGuru He was in a hurry, at the begining you can hear him say "Short version"
I'd blame it on him being in a hurry and playing on an electric piano.
ThatBoyGuru please listen and subscribe. This boy is amazing ua-cam.com/video/MNWYcpRJLmo/v-deo.html
I’d rather he play it at tempo and stop midway than speed through it
He butchered it, my ears are bleeding
