His tempo beautiful. What is absolutely impressive though his is dynamic control. A lot of piano players nowadays lack that quality. That control is amazing
For me, the music is moving and utterly persuasive at this tempo. I've heard it played more slowly and with a great deal more rubato but this performance seems just right in every way. Many thanks...I've loved this piece since childhood.
This correct tempo portrays the tranquil and reflective mood one feels when gliding in a gondola. It's not meant to portray the actual speed of the gondola in water.
Okay but to everyone saying that this is being played too quickly, it quite clearly says "Allegretto" in the description. It's intentionally being played this quickly.
Joann Cat No, no i mean in the description of the video. The guy playing this is playing it at the speed it's labelled as him playing. That's all I was saying- that people shouldn't be surprised, because the description tells them what tempo he intends to play the piece at. I'm not sure what tempo my sheet music says, and I don't have it anywhere near me to check, but either way, that was the point I was trying to make.
Cette musique se déplie comme un livre d'images plein d'étoiles, où viennent filer les oiseaux, tourner les farandoles, claquer les crécelles et danser les sorciers 👀
This is still one of my favorite songs to this day...and I quit lessons as a kid in the middle of learning it. Unfortunately I don’t have the discipline to teach myself pieces like this without an instructor anymore. 😔
Помнишь, порою ночною наша гондола плыла.... Мы любовались луною, всплескам внимая весла. Искрились волны лагуны, где-то в дали голубой Плакали нежные струны. пел гондольер молодой..... Пел он про небо и море, про голубую волну, Пел про блаженство и горе, пел про любовь и весну.....
For the ones that say toooo fast.music can be fast or slow its the players style so you cant say that it has to be slower then that.there arent any masters like this anymore love your playing!:)
Elsa Frozen just to show you where you made a BIG mistake is that when it comes to classical music you have to stick with the composer's requirements in order to retain the mood of the piece. If the piece was created to be slow, then it should be played in the same speed. Also, it is nice to add some details of your preference in the piece, but not too many. The piece was supposed to give out feelings of melancholy and drama when played. That's what I believe and I hope I didn't disturb you.
For those who things the tempo is too fast. You are not correct. It is stated ob the sheet Allegretto which means a bit slower than Allegro (which no doubr you are aware means "fast").
Hush up everyone, it wasn't too fast. This is a piece that sounds nice a variety of speeds, and I personally enjoyed this interpretation. You could go even faster without ruining it tbh, but this is a fine tempo.
It's one thing to get all the notes right, and it's another to convey the desired tempo and dynamics! That's why my own performance sometimes sounds soulless to me albeit fine to others. You are splendid!
À mon sens, c'est de cette façon dont cet Op doit être joué, soit de façon simple, direct, sans trop chercher à marquer l'émotion outre mesure. Car ce qui se dégage d'elle est instantané, limpide, chaque note est touchante. C'est pourquoi il n'y a pas besoin d'en rajouter. Elle est peu à l'image des plus belles compositions de Satie, une de ces compositions qu'il est difficile de jouer autrement que simplement, au risque que ça n'apparaisse un peu trop surjouée.
Great Job! It's supposed to play like this, like water rippling, not the actually boat itself. Doubt y'all haters can even play it. It's freaking ALLEGRETTO!!!
This ain't supposed to be plaied slower. One of my piano test during my childhood was with this song and I plaied it approximately the same speed that he is doing. The examinator gave to me a perfect grade for my presentation, and I'm pretty sure that they know more than most of the people saying that it's too fast.
Mendelssohn himself can play this piece at the tempo he intended and still get critized here.
Lol
And the word criticised should have 2 c’s in it! Lol and either s or z! 😊😊

PREACH!
Tamar Mack on my copy it says Adante sostenuto
Joann Cat I've just checked again and it still definitely says "Allegretto tranquillo"
Tamar Mack I know, on whatever copy you're playing, but I have the sheet music in my keith snell level 7 book and it says adante sostenuto there
Joann Cat No, no i mean in the description of the video. The guy playing this is playing it at the speed it's labelled as him playing.

For those who think it's too fast, the marked tempo is allegretto tranquillo, so it's not supposed to be too slow or mushy.
💁PREACH
Slow sounds boring. This version is just right
This is a masterpiece, thank you for sharing your gift!
That's not gift that's practice
@@rugtea7993 yea but the dedication needed to practice at that level and the emotion are gifts
I found a wonder !!! This brilliant song talks to soul !!!
Love the steady tempo and the dynamic to this piece!! Very well done
I love it😍
Brilliant. The depth here is incredible.
Beautiful!
what a beautiful piece of musical art
Absolutely breathtaking! Thank you for sharing your talent. This just made my day!

Lovely interpetation!! Thankyou
This is amazing!
Beautiful❤️
É simplesmente de tirar o fôlego! Conforme vou envelhecendo, mais vou ficando envolvido pela música de Mendelssohn
A very elegant and enchanting performance. Thanks, Joel.
Thank for posting
Excellent.
Magnifique. Musique romantique et le pianiste TOP
I love your tempo...I'm practicing it at the lower speed but will aim to play near your tempo. C'est tres bien interprète
.
D'accord
amazing
This is still one of my favorite songs to this day...and I quit lessons as a kid in the middle of learning it. Unfortunately I don’t have the discipline to teach myself pieces like this without an instructor anymore. 😔
Love it
The last handful of measures were ethereal, in all senses of that word.
Chanson sans paroles...qué belleza!
No me canso de oirla
That's really fast going gondola. I'm surprised no one fell in the water yet.
Good job though.
Michelle Ma that was good😂😂😂😂
I play this piece for my 7th grade RCM piano exam and that’s exactly what my mom said. xd
Alan Cheng 7th gRadE?? Woah, I though It was easier although I learned *technically* in two days
@@alancheng7177 i am in 5th grade and i learn it too for exams
Michelle Ma 😂😂😂
Lovely tone and cadence. really works for me.
J'adore ce genre de la musique :)
Amazing!!
My favorite
superbe.
I first listened this in allegretto so I can't listen to other speeds,it's very calming and mysterious in this speed if you ask me.
Rest in Peace man.
Just terrific playing. i have bookmarked this. i will eventually get to this piece in suzuki book 6 and hope to be able to play it someday.
I absolutely love it!
Well played 👍👍
Everywhere I've heard it has been at this tempo so I thought it was fine
Speedy gondales
two years later and this joke is still horrible
3 years later
3 year later and this joke is awesomw aghahahahahaghaghaghaghaghahahhahaha
Six years later and this joke still sounds stup..d
Tomas Plasil: I also feel it's played a bit too fast
Well done! Nice playing!
Amazing !!!
indeed

Simply Beautiful ,a great interpretation of his music!!
AWESOME
Very nice
This felt more like a speedbot than a gondola
gorgeous, wonderful
I also try to play this - the music is really touching my mom said
Thanks very much for your Music!!!
😍😍😍
wow!!!
Vəə musiqi ruhu təmizləyir ...🪐

Beautifully played, really sounded like a song !
The "Lieder ohne Worte" are my favorite piano pieces by Mendelsohn. Bravo Mr. Hastings!
와안전 잘 치셔서 감동받았어요ㅠㅠ 이 분 엄청 잘 치신다 손!!^~^

I agree with tg 4q3 its like playing a slow song with the fastest tempo you can because it’s free style yeah
@@tg4q391 true
Another name for this song is Venetian Boat Song from RCM book 7
Nobody is said that his tempo is too fast yet there are like soo many “hate” comments like wtf
For those who things the tempo is too fast. You are not correct. It is stated ob the sheet Allegretto which means a bit slower than Allegro (which no doubr you are aware means "fast").
Beautifully done.

Све једно, ја сам уз ово одрасла и сазрела!
This piece is so so good... what are some other similar ones?
Hallo, surely i think Chopin nocurnes are wonderful and quiets song similar to Mendelssohn . Ciao
there's the other venetian gondola lieder from mendelssohn
i literally just typed in gondola song in the search bar and this came up. glad i did =)

I can play it, you probably can't play it.
@@bryanwu2721 profound words from Mr. Anime PFP over here. Clap it up guys, he's obviously got a 200 iq.
I’m learning it, so if you, O so wise in the ways of this piece can help a newcomer...
But it also says tranquillo, I'm confused 😂
Edit: but he plays good ngl
@@fishwithbutter he played good
Great playing! I just uploaded this piece too :)
A beautiful performance, but the song is meant to be played way slower than that...it's a gondola, not a jet boat!
True
This is one of my favorites comments ever.
Someone's going to fall over if you play too fast.
But its not actually suppossed to be play slower. The marking is 56-63 for the dotted quarter note in 6/8 time
Irina Downing so please post your own performance or shut the hell uo
I'm from Thailand
good for you

11 for me.
I'm 12
It's kinda easy
@Iva Wang Noice
This song is actually super easy! The problem is I have 2 days to learn it. lol
... but its allegretto *tranquillo* ... i would have done this speed for some parts, but not the whole song :[
잘 쳐요
The hardest part for me is the (don't know how it's called in English) part where he trembles with his fingers those three times
Its called a trill
Thanks
In professiona musi it's called "Tremolo"
zakaster gabriychuk its called trill
Satsuga not to tell you that "Tremolo" is a greek word :D. It derives from Τρέμουλο (trémoūlo).
das ende des trillers in takt 34 (bei 1:09) ist übrigens ebenso falsch, auch bei der wiederholung :(
Por qué no habla nadie en español o creo que me metí en el vídeo equivocado 🤔 no, si estoy en el correcto 🤣😮😱 que alguien me explique!!!!!😅😁😭🤣😀😗
Yo si hablo español😎 y la cancion esta HERMOSAAAAA😘
