    500,000 SUBSCRIBERS!!! It's hard to believe that there are so many of you here, you are an absolutely incredible community!! To thank you all here is another one of the most requested pieces to be performed on the channel, and with this one we also welcome the third pianist to the channel, Tae-Seung Park. As one of Chopin's most difficult pieces, with one of the most misleading introductions, it's amazing to realize that behind the insane difficulty is also an insanely beautiful piece, and this is why Chopin's Etudes were such a big deal during his time - he revolutionized the Etude.

      Hi piano, if you like a song with emotions you will love a classic song named happy birthday, but is very hard so I don't recommend you learn it. It is said that happy birthday was tried by Liszt once and he died because of the sheer difficulty. It is so hard that only simply piano ads can perform it 😰

    For people who wanna learn the piece, it's easier than it looks. Because Chopin makes sure it is really comfortable for your fingers. I think that it's not the hardest etude because the technique is not very special compared to opus 10 no 2 and opus 25 no 6. For pieces like this, you have to start and see how it ends. Don't expect you can master it in like a month, or even a year. But still like the first page 0:00 - 0:38, the easiest of all, is doable, even for an intermediate player.

      The problem with learning any difficult piece like this, is that you feel a sense of accomplishment. You then listen to the piece played by others on youtube to compare ideas and come across a 5 year old chinese girl playing the piece better than you. . .

      You can play this with a lot of hard work and practice, you only need read the sheet for some days/weeks and don't be accomplished. For example I am not a great pianist like lang lang or yuha, (im not a beginner or a professional) but I learned Liebestraum 3 by Liszt in 15/20 days, 3 weeks ago, and now I think that I do a great interpretation. The secret is read all the pages of the sheet, watch and hear another artist and the signs on the sheet, and record your interpretation when you are learning the piece, because doing this you can watch your mistakes.
