    You have convinced me to strive to play Schumann. When I was young, I wanted to play Chopin and Beethoven. I got somewhat older, and I wanted to play Brahms. I am 72 years old. I have practiced piano only on and off. I am retired now. I am practicing mostly Beethoven, Mozart and Brahms. Wrist injury has prevented me from practicing Brahms & Beethoven like I did when I was 50. I have to play mostly Mozart -- but I still practice Beethoven, Brahms, & Schubert. Thank you for encouraging us to keep striving at music. It really helps when you tell us to keep striving.

    It will be midnight on the 29th in Hong Kong, where her parents live, when @Tiffanypianist opens this gift to us. Makes sense when you recall her saying that a birthday is a time to celebrate not yourself but your mother, “who did all the work”. An unconventional view, perhaps, but one of the sweetest things I’ve ever heard. On the long list of things to admire about Tiffany is that she has never forgotten where she came from, in more ways than one; 😉 that is a cardinal virtue in Chinese culture. A healthy ego is a necessity for any performing artist, but with Tiffany, the sense of gratitude for all those who have supported her in charting her lonely path to greatness is never far from the surface - and is acted upon through her charitable endeavours, the way she has found to give back. A more grounded and wholesome “celebrity” (if you count someone who has more than a quarter of a million followers on UA-cam) would be hard to find. If I were one of her parents, my heart would be bursting with pride in this remarkable young woman they can call their daughter. Happy Birthday, dear Tiffany! 🎶🐿

      Hello, FL. Could you respond to me at my email at 100silverdragons@gmail.com? I would like to ask you questions and make comments for your consideration pertaining to the subject above. I felt I could reach out to you because your comments above are insightful and sincere. However, have you ever had an angelic person in your life who has done something substantially wrong? They have seriously crossed the line...and yet they are a sweetheart. I also have a kind nature, but am not sure what to do when an otherwise considerate person has made a faux pas. Corresponding by email might allow us to commensurate freely. I would deeply appreciate your help, especially since you are likely as busy as I am. Thank you.

    • @andresgunther
      @andresgunther 3 роки тому +5

      I just happen to read through the comments and saw this. My respect for Tiffan'ys parents is as huge as my respect for Tiffany herself [even though I sometimes tease her 😏].
      That she has parents who gave everything they could to support her in what is an extremely difficult career is utterly priceless. How many kids take for granted what their parents do for them, and how many kids grow up in a dysfunctional home and have to struggle (and often lose that struggle). Besides her culture and upbringing, Tiff is mature enough, even at her young age, to realize that and be thankful. Priceless as well.
      Regarding another comment further down: nobody is a saint, neither is Tiff. It happens that someone hurts a fellow, often without bad intent. Happens to me quite often 'cuz I can't keep my mouth shut. Tell me about an artist who is easy to deal with, and I give you 100 symbolic Dollars. And I should know; I have worked with artists all my lifetime...still do.... just my 2 cts.

      @@andresgunther Thank you for responding, Andres. I could use help from insightful people. If you have further thoughts on this subject please reach me at 100silverdragons@gmail. Yes, I put her on a pedestal. I admit that is my fault. But is anybody in this community able to blame me for putting her on a pedestal? Right...I didn't think so. This would be easier for me if she was a total asshole. Then I could just rip her a new one and feel glorious about it. But she is a sweetheart. WTF? This is complicated further by the fact that I am usually kind. No, I cannot claim to have always succeeded at kindness. I wish that I could. But I am mostly kind and wish to be considerate to her. It's just that she......Ugh! Thank you for understanding, Andres.

  • @danielortiz4331

    I can honestly say, being Schumann one of my favourite composers, that this is the best performance of the Sonata I´ve ever heard. No one has put the required passion, emotion, loneliness and despair that Tiffany displays here. She even manages to follow Schumann´s indications in the last bars (Schneller....Noch schneller) which are normally underestimated because one thinks it´s impossible to give even more. Overall, you couldn´t have given me a better gift. This is the only way Robert would have performed it.

    • @MaestroMcQ
      @MaestroMcQ 3 роки тому +8

      I completely agree with every thing you said, except for the last point. I don't think Robert COULD have performed it like this... maybe Clara, but I don't think Robert quite had the "chops" to pull off a performance this great.

    Hi Tiffany! I just wanted to express my gratitude for your wonderful, passionate playing on UA-cam. You made me start appreciating Schumann's Music. I have never really put my attention on his work because I didn't know more than his,, Träumerei" but since you have already played lots of his music and shared it on UA-cam, you have kind of introduced me to his music. Shortly said: Without you I would have never got to know and appreciate Schumann's work. The more pieces you share with us, the more I like his music. So, thank you!

    Thank you for introducing some of us to the mastery of Schumann’s work, Tiffany. I’ve rarely seen such transcendently accomplished performances at the piano before. There is a wondrous semblance of spirited reprieve in your tone - one technically proficient enough to speak free the unshackled utterances privy to the realms of certain emancipation. The heart of the composer is brought back to vital life once again, when such a perspicacious fire courageously melds the notes on the page to the mystery of a heart that beats for all those unfathomable inner worlds patiently waiting to be found.
