"I just want to spread enthusiasm." That is one of the best sentences I've ever heard.
"sometimes i just write stuff that... comforts me"
[dissonant chromatic playing]
*avant-garde jazz intensifies*
Hmmm yes very comforting
😂
Wrote similar comment, but then found your's and deleted mine :)
Nahre saying her favorite instrument is the guitar is like Adam Neely saying his favorite instrument are the Bongos
@@hypercept absolutely. currently attempting to play the guitar as well.
@@hypercept but you don't have the polyphonic and contrapunctual freedom like on a piano.
@@hypercept wow...that means Albert Kings blues bending on a guitar is much harder to play than Glenn Gould's piano work on Bach's Goldberg Varriation. BTW I like both...sorry I, m not convinced by your opinion.
@@hypercept ua-cam.com/video/ZzkwmhT6oNY/v-deo.html that for me is polyphonic and contrapunctual freedom. ok convince me...how to do that on guitar.
Imagine at the end of an Adam Neely video: *B O N G O S*
I love the way Nahre speaks. It's so clean and comfy. She sounds like a warm hug.
She saying "happy" made me smile.
Nahre : i'm not the most talented
everyone watching : *spits coffee*
hahhaha
didnt have any drink next to me but I did "what, no way" too :)
Yeah, it's one of those things about people with actual talent. No matter how good you are, you end up judging your self against the best there is. And being talented, means you know EXACTLY how good the best are and that is often impossible to achieve. For them, the best is not just a compliment. They KNOW that "the best" is an honest accurate description.
It's true because she does more hard work than talent.
Talent is just something you're born with but the only way to do something that she does is through thousands of hours of practice :)
It’s your joy in music that makes me watch
She is a talented pianist, very humble too
She is a gift to us all, I'm thankful for so much of her content
It's you again
She is.
Really interesting tbh.
What the hell are you doing here?!
im crying when she said "im not the most talented", she works so hard and learn so hard for it but girl, i think talent is in there. she's amazing.
Nahre I've been following you around for over a year now and the growth is inspirational. I pray you stay safe out there in New York.
Also, @ 7:19 that new yorkian accent came out hard with "another" LOL
I love this. Thank you everyone involved for making this “portrait”. I resonate to this 🙏🏼
6:16!!! Such a mood😍 the gentle piano playing in the backgroung, with the snow, on a cosy sofa with her soothing voice!! Beautiful shot!
Beautiful video. Her and LA through their shared passion and enthusiasm for music really make the best hosts for this channel.
She is such an inspiration to me, that thing she said about music as a nutrition but kinda for your soul and happiness, thats so true 🙂
I think Nahre's willingness to step outside the stereotypical classical pianist's lane, experimenting with other genres, working just as happily with digital pianos, synths as well as acoustic grands, coming up with innovative exercises which sound good and motivate people. In a world where a lot of people look down on things outside their own comfort zones, she's successfully shaking things up and blurring the lines between genres, and that's why so many of us are drawn to her work.
I like her so much...very talented but so down to earth....love all of her, skills, talent and personality! She really inspires me to keep going with my piano learning....
I like that she's friendly and humble despite her talents - she always seems so nice.
Very canadian lol
Where has the algorithm been hiding this? I'm hoping to live long enough to witness Nahre become a National Treasure.
Humble, credible, and accessible. Nahre is awesome!
Nahre in her groove is a language I barely comprehend. But when she's out of her comfort zone, she communicates raw and direct, with tons of insight and self-awareness. My two favorite examples are in the episodes Ballroom and the How Classical, R&B and Jass Musicians Play Differently. I learn by watching Nahre experience and express.
Teaming her and LA pretty much guarantees something new is going to happen.
There is something about how cerebral, but also approachable musicians are that I just love. Keep doing you Nahre!
Music becomes rather insular when you live in New York City. You know people who do the same sort of thing you do you keep up with what they are doing. Some classical patrons are snobs and think they are better than people who like other forms of music. I disagree about music being replaced in your life. I sang in a good choir that did not get paid. I know when I get depressed I have to go look for the music to get better. My theory is that we do not select music. It picks us and we have to follow wherever it takes us. Most talented people I have known listen much more widely than they perform. I love your music but I live for your exploring different types of music. You two have helped me come out of the depression. Thank you.
Nahre: "I want to learn guitar. It's my favorite instrument actually."
me: *vision of Nahre doing inhuman double tapping shreding on guitar becaus of her piano background, like Sarah Longfield and Yvette Young*
oh my god
Klaim I'd buy a nahre signature model in a heartbeat
Nahre really is a realistic + relatable role model for me. not in the usual way where talent and hard work and musicality is the sheer point of admiration (although, of course, i still do admire these things about her), but more so the way she approaches being a musician, rather than a pianist. im currently attending a conservatory for a piano performance degree, but often times find myself alienated by my relative lack of obsession with the instrument, and like Nahre I dont feel like im the most talented out of the bunch. i love music in all of its forms and genres, but i am there because piano happens to be the one thing i can do. it's comforting to know that it is possible for a heavily classically trained pianist to explore music instead of just the piano - suddenly none of my practice feels like it's done in vain anymore...
The best of the best are not talented. They make it up for it as you clearly do Nahre Sol. You're marvelous!
I watch because she is inspirational and educational.
The sequence you were playing at 4:20 very much made me think of the piano in Breath of the Wild. Absolutely beautiful! :)
gotten more out of your vids than anything ! thank you thank you and thanks a lot!!
Hi Nahre , thank you for sharing this video about your life’s journey with music as your guide. I am a composer and musician for many years and I am inspired by such a young, talented , enthusiastic, self-aware musician such as yourself. I can see by the comments in your videos that you inspire many people. “Happiness is not something ready made. It comes from your own actions.” ―Dalai Lama XIV
I look forward to every video you do. Your presence makes the videos, your love of it shines through
Congratulations on your sincerity. Thank you for sharing a little of your life story.
She is simply amazing, and an inspiration to us young musicians. I wish her the best :)
Why I watch your video:
I never had an interest in classical music until I watched you play. Because your hand movements are mesmerizing to me. And then I started listening to the incredible sounds that came out of them....
Her love for music shines through. What an inspirational personality and talent.
I feel like she's the most important musician today, the curiosity of music and wanting to explore sounds, learn history and appreciate it makes me want to learn too
goal accomplished Nahre. If there is one thing I always feel after watching and listening it is enthusiasm.
I think that the things that make Nahre Sol popular on UA-cam, besides the obvious ones like being a brilliant composer and pianist, are the ability to speak well, understand and analyze music, and express her own thoughts and analyses to the camera clearly and honestly. Also the editing and production of her videos is quite good.
She's a musician, educator, technical analyst passionate sharing person! God bless her!
I have never heard anyone who could channel great composers. After seeing her videos, I automatically analyze every piece of music I hear.
Wait what? Did Nahre say her favourite instrument was the guitar at 5:05?
guitar rules
When you start out on an instrument at the age of whatever one digit number, it's quite unlikely that it'll stay your favourite instrument given that it was your favourite instrument to begin with. I started on clarinet when I was a child and now my favourite instrument to listen to is the oboe.
I play both but mostly self taught on guitar. I was pretty mobile for my 20's and an acoustic guitar is just more portable. And I got more work as a fill in guitarist than keyboardist. There is always someone who needs an acoustic guitar player for a small room. But every chance I got to play a decent piano was a joy.
It's not uncommon for people who've played an instrument for a long time.
I am also a pianist and composer and the piano is certainly not my favorite instrument to listen to, and/or write for.
Rasmus n.e.M you started on clarinet and now your favorite instrument is an oboe? God bless you.
Always blessed to hear from the sound crew !!!
Love to see more in depth videos on the both of you guys! Love to learn the reason behind your 3 names Nahre! Hope you and LA and the rest of the Sound Field gang are being safe and smart! Can't wait for the next video!
More videos about Nahre pls :) Tk you, @Sound Field!
When I was a kid I would see the music documentaries in PBS. They were the late 1970s documentaries that had so much green an orange lights, so they had a warm feeling to them to them.
This video's content feels so much like those documentaries from 40 years ago
Loved this piece on Nahre! Thanks for all the wonderful videos you two and the crew :)
Nice watch! Compliments to everyone involved.
Music expresses so beautifully the soul and emotions she’s right! The keyboard presentation and guitar dope! She has sparked even more love for Music! For real watch this until the end very interesting! She has a real passion and sticked to it!
Nahre Kept my faith in music alive! Thank you for being such an inspiration🙏🏾
Lovely !
This video is so great and is so, I don't know, it has some comforting feeling. It was really well edited also, it looks like everything fits so well.
*But I still want to known if "Sol" in Nahre Sol it's because of the Sun.
If she were a metal musician, would she be...
... Nahre *DEADLY LASER* ?
Agreed; this is a lovely, charming video and musical portrait.
i get what you mean. her soft voice with the piano in the background is cozier than reading a book on a rainy day.
idk. Sol can be a note name (G in solfege), or the word "love" in Korean.
@@coldackotatsu8020 How could I forgot about G? uiahua.
so cool!
it's very encouraging to see you coming from a cultural perspective that I can relate to. It gives me hope to share my love and enthusiasm for music in the way that you do. thanks to the team for producing such great stuff!
I love Nahre's music I learn a lot from her :) Her channel and Rick Beatos are my favorites :)
thank you for being such a big inspiration nahre!!!
I love your work!
Thank you for making this video about Nahre.
Very inspiring
You're so fun and an amazing talent! Lovely! :)
Nahre,
You are an extremely accomplished pianist.
Love your touch, tone and rythim and sort of your impressive " all-terrain" tecnique.!!
Congratulations!!
Unfortunately, I am light years away all of that ,but still love it.!!
Regards from Torrente, Spain!!
She seems like such a wholesome person ❤️
6:11-6:14 The Hard working beats talent if the talent isnt working hard enough
You Go Nahre!!!
Keep spreading that enthusiasm! We all feel it and vibe off it :)
Superb! This thought about complications in life and how music may try to match it is really nice and deep:)
And great weather/subway shots and editing; many thanks!
Nahre is amazing. Keep doing what you do.
Classical pianist learns guitar videos would be great, you always have interesting ideas and topics!!!
You and LA are so amazing! As musicians but also in how you inspire other people!
This was a beautiful video, about a beautiful and yes, TALENTED person. I am sure I will watch it again. There are a lot of young people inspired by you, and also a lot of older people, many of whom completely understand and associate with staying alone in one room all day, but lack your talent and appeal. I am sure your videos fill some holes in rather frustrating and empty lives. Thank you.
am i the only one who didn't realize the deeper meaning of her most recent album title until watching the first 30 seconds of this video
I have missed you all guys. I hope that all the people that work every day putting together this amazing channel be ok at safe at home. A big (social distancing) hug from Chile :)
Good to hear from you again Gladys!
I hope you and your family are safe in NYC. Thank you.
She's a genius
I don't even play my piano anymore but you are still such an inspiration!
I’ m totally loving your channel and have a suggestion for a genre of music you may not have checked out. I discovered the traditional music of Quebec and was pretty obsessed with it for awhile. The reason it is so cool is that a lot of the songs performed are ancient, but many of the bands reharmonize and reform the music so that is music that is constantly evolving. The groups I recommend listening to are Le Vent du Nord, Genticorum, La Volee D’Castors. They use interesting modes and changing time signatures (they call those “crooked”)
We watch your videos because we love you
Total inspiration
That was a really nice video to watch.
I love this musician she’s very enjoyable and informative and fun and funny!
Greetings from Japan❣️
Nahre, you're correct when you say some classical musicians can be insular. I am one of those people. I can acknowledge that other styles and genres exist, but they don't speak to me the same way my chosen genre does.
This was lovely.
Nahre: just to say hi from Brazil and say your videos always have a nice combination of music, info and humor (!). Loved the jam with L.A... What about a Live jam with him, during this world quarantine?
Ella me hace sentir bien... te queremos Nare Sol !!
Her compositions are very nice!
The reason i watch your videos, is how passionate you are
I thought I had seen all of Tatum transcription videos on UA-cam. I'll have to check out yours.
nahre sol so cooooool
u r truly an inspiration 😍😍😍
Nahre's amazing, but I also wanted to mention that the artistry of the editing on this video is quite awesome as well. (Somewhat less convinced by the camera work though...)
"maybe a part of what's interesting is that someone from the classical music world is doing other genres...because as a classical musician [generally speaking], are quite insular of what they listen to, what music they expose themselves to, what music they play"
that's actually my main reason why i find her videos so interesting! it's so refreshing to see a classically trained pianist like myself to be able to appreciate and write music that is outside of the classical music world.
Beautiful video
My godness, i love this channel. It's showing us a world, a different world with music and magic. Pd: I want to see guitar theme's from Nahre in the future.
Please list all the songs she played! I'd love to hear more.
Reminds me to remind myself that I love music. It's easy to leave music behind in favor of spoken word listening ... podcasts, audiobooks... in this golden age of streaming. I have to not do that. Music is too important, too affecting. Thanks for this vid which I'm watching here in 2024.
She’s right polyvalence gives your différent perspectives on your art or what you do also on life its a nice way to introduce herself with Music
Ok, you said it - “insular” yes, exactly why you’re so interesting, among many other things!
This is by far my favorite video on your channel because it explains a lot about you so I can stop asking stupid stalky questions! (Sorry!)
But I really can tell before you told it, that indeed you love music more than piano, and that you like listening/writing more than playing. I’m quite similar in that way too- though I stopped classical piano after Juilliard pre-c, I felt in some ways my truer musicianship journey “began” as I dabbled in many other aspects like arranging and directing. I’m sure you can relate. End state is an exciting to think about, but we all are benefiting immensely from your love of music. End of rant, thanks for this video and keep it up!
hi i am a new subscriber and i love this channel i think you are an outstanding musician and i have subscribed to your own channel to to. and i play drums so i am so glad i found this channel thank you and hey from sweden:)
It makes sense to me Nahre. ❤️
I forgot what was Nahre's first video that I watch 😅 (most probably the "How to play like (insert composer name)" (I knew not the exact series title 😫😫🙈), or maybe the (insert genre) as digested by a classical pianist 🤔🤔) but it is such a delight to watch her here on UA-cam develop and flourish 💙💙😭😭🎹
watching Nahre Sol or any musician from youtube playing any song warms my heart in times that only makes me feels distressed and worried
I can listen to her all day talk
uuuhhhmmm... few nahresol notes blended with smiles and friends coming from everywhere. Beautiful. Satori moment. Opps... another new world to explore in musicalwonderland. Back to the train
super comfy
No doubt at the 3 min mark the cam op is silently excited that such an awesome frame aligned itself so nicely.
Sol te amo
