These are really interesting Masterclasses. Katsaris does a very concentrated work he gives technical support and does develop the imagination of the students to get them not just playing notes but to understand the text and also emotional context.
Liszt said in a Masterclass at the end of his life, about the middle section at 16:22 : “Do I care how fast you can play your octaves? What I wish to hear is the canter of the horses of the Polish cavalry before they gather force and destroy the enemy!" (F. Liszt coted by several of his pupils).
In former times this man would have been killed for betraying the secrets of his profession. Its just wonderful that we can watch such a master. Thanks for these videos. They are a must for everyone who loves the piano and the art of teaching how to play it.
Please, can we have English subtitles too. I still enjoy watching this because it's not necessary to understand the spoken language to understand and feel everything else. The interaction.

Thanks for great masterclass! A big inspiration for we
kraftpr he explains this is a war piece and the historical context, that Chopin expressed all his frustration at the political situation in his country (among other things).
I would have loved to have a piano teacher so prepared, but also caring not to bless the sensitivity of his student. This last one is not prepared technically, but he never tells him so, always using another way to let him understand it.
As someone who is actually working on this piece, that really is way tougher than it looks, as if it didn't already look difficult enough. Even if you know what technique works best (which will differ between individual pianists), it takes an insane amount of strength, mobility, and endurance to play it like you're playing singles as staccatos instead.
And it's even tougher to switch directions in the transitional part. You go mostly counter-clockwise then all of a sudden you have to do a clockwise loop 3+ times. Even though it's only 3 loops, that's one hell of a switch
@theadventureinsider I just practiced those 17 measures before the modulation for about 30 minutes a day at a slow tempo for about 2 weeks until I got brave enough to start adding the right hand. I don't think I could play as fast as katsaris but I could at least play it accurately without too much fatigue.
I wish my piano teacher was just like him even a tiny bit. She probably didn't have any passion to teach piano to kids, but teaching for just making money.
@@marshan1226 No need to understand french. All is explained though is "exemple" at the piano. If you really want to undersand, just listen what he is playing about.
Mediocre studdents? What are you to say that ? Do you have any sample of video who can proove you are better than him ? Do you think katsaris will lose his time with a "mediocre" studdent ? No for sure ...
Ja je kan wel zeggen je moet je hand zo houden in deze phrase maar iedere hand is anders dus Cyprien doet het zo maar een andere pianist kan het anders doen. en zijn interpratie van het stuk zal zeker gebaseerd zijn op bronnen en zijn eigen inzichten maar dat gelul over de toonsoorten wordt ik moe van. Hij Cyprien kan wel goed spelen maar zijn masterclasses zijn shit
Are you kidding ? The guy plays excellently , if he didn't Katsaris wouldn't have chosen him for his Masterclass, it amazes me that you ignore that simple fact. The Masterclass is to perfect his playing , technique and interpretation .. hence the name "Master class".
What do you expect from a masterclass ? It is not great to learn some "basic" tricks on How to learn, how to make it ? You critic his scale but you not congratulate him about his Octave (left hand) ? If you want just to listen a "Perfect" "technical" version of this Polonaise then just listen the "Masters" and not come here to critic a student. And you? How's your scale ? It is perfect ? And your octave ?
One of the most talented teachers ever in the history of the world. I don't have the words to properly express his excellence. I just know it.

Dear Professor Katsaris; Thanks for sharing your insights on Chopin with all of us.
In former times this man would have been killed for betraying the secrets of his profession. Its just wonderful that we can watch such a master. Thanks for these videos. They are a must for everyone who loves the piano and the art of teaching how to play it.

why and where would he have been killed?
この生徒もかなり上手いけど、カツァリスはやはり別次元ですね
I absolutely loved to see this! Katsaris really knows this piece! Thank you.
Speaking in French and subtitled in Japanese ! Perfect! Thanks anyway for uploading the great video!
Hahahaha...
I can speak both.
Summerbreeze sameee
Thank you very much. It was very helpful. You don't need to speak French to understand. Cyprien emotions and hands explain everything.
Learning french and piano at the same time damn
Japanese too lol
Bella lezione, interessanti tutte le osservazioni! Bravo Katsaris!
フランス語のレッスンなんて別次元
Magnifique conseil à 17:14-17:22 qui donne une si belle sonorité pour différencier ce passage du précédent...
Vraiment utile! This makes me so glad I'm learning French at school.
Im glad I learned japanese and can read the subtitles lol
@@acryingonion lol that works
18:22 okay.
when you trace your piano lineage to Liszt...
How the fuck...
How did the thumb went that fast ?!🤯🤯🤯🤯
Katsaris is a wonderful teacher
Katsaris.......Tu se fantastic pianiste et profeseur honoraire!!!!!!
清水さんは、現在名古屋音楽大学の教授です。
清水さんは、他のレスナーとは基本的な技術が違っていた。ただ、技術志向であり、音楽的には個性的では無かった事は否めない。カツアリスには、見抜かれている。歌手のように音色を変える事と歌う事が、レッスンの中心課題だ。カツアリス自身も、若い時代の音楽は技術的には高いが、ラフマニノフの３番のコンチェルトなど、評判にもならなかった。音色も平板だった。今は、名人級だが、ルイサダも五年間で大きく変わった。傍にいて面白くもない男だったのだと思う。清水さんには会った事は無いが、カツアリスが考えているのは、コンクールに勝つ事～そんな単純じゃない。現役でレコードを何枚も出すようなピアニストが、審査員をしていないのが問題だと思う。日本人にだって、亡くなったけれど種田さん・園田さん・井上さんなど、両方できる人が生まれている。
ほへー、すご
素晴らしいレッスンだ。ショパンの詩的な意味を表現することをカツアリスは求めている。ショパンの生きていた時代の、文化、特に芸術、特に音楽について、上手に説明をする。作曲技術的には、ショパンが失敗した部分であっても、そこには目をやらずに、作曲家の肩を持って美しく音にするのが、演奏家なのだ。モチーフの展開力には、間違いなく欠けている面がある。軍隊ポロネーズ、ソナタ二番などである。ベートーベンには、オペラ・劇音楽・歌曲以外にはない。
Please, can we have English subtitles too. I still enjoy watching this because it's not necessary to understand the spoken language to understand and feel everything else. The interaction.
Thanks for great masterclass!
A big inspiration for we
感動🥺 すごいなーラフマニノフでもこんな動画欲しい
Magnificent
C'est incroyable.
I only wish there could have been English subtitles so I could have learned more.

Thank you.
SingHouse could you translate it and write it in the comments??
@@marshan1226 its 29 minutes i think its a bit too much too translate
Evening hey you don’t ask you don’t get 🤷♂️
永久保存版
adoro questo maestro
6:33 "Back to the Future Katsaris" he looks like a musician from the era of bach dressed like a man in 1993 to give piano classes

Thank you for this very interesting documents...!!
こんな動画があるとは（驚）
Can we talk about effortless and rapid those octaves at 18:22 are? Dear god I've never seen anyone play that little passage so fast!

Heureusement que je suis français pour comprendre tous ces précieux conseils.
idem
さすが東京藝大
It is the third movement of the Suite op. 14.
Hope someone could help to translate it.
How can I hear this master class in English instead of French?
Maybe English subtitles too?
I don't get it. How did the Japanese understood if it was in French?
Vraiment pas mal je valide lol 😂
Fantástico
Can anyone translate this in English for me, I don’t speak French
Edit: Since my comment I have learnt and now speak French (2020)
And u really think someone is doing it for u now?
Dampf Nudel Hey, you don’t try, you don’t succeed 🤷♀️
Stop complaining
I speak french but you're asking alot of work

この生徒さんは日本人？フランス語が分かるのか
流石やな❤
しかしまだまだやわ😢
I used five minutes to figure out if he was speaking Spanish or French😂😂

3BoMc thank you very much

はいどうもありがとうございました笑笑
I have found how to translate the subtitle from French to English thru UA-cam.
Merci beaucoup ! Je cherchais un prof pour mieux interpréter, je l’ai trouvé !!!!
Katsaris has so much ideas that it overloads the student and kills the spirit
Could anyone add english subs 😇?
Katsaris ,u are a brilliant pianist and amazing teacher .I only want to listening to u ,not your mediocre students

Exactly, the dude is not prepared technically. I mean If you are going to attend a masterclass on TV the least you can do is practise your scales!
perotal U sur3 u do better?
He said that his left hand hurts
