    Your persistence has paid off. You played it like it was the first take, not like you had it. Keep plugging away. Your musically in this piece is excellent👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

      Thanks. Funnily enough the first take was very similar until I messed it up right at the end.

      @@DanielLearnsPiano I suggest that you practice the ending many times first even though it’s in the beginning too. Many times repeats are the most difficult because we become either overconfident or lose the edge of our concentration. Be patient, it is paying off. Some days are better than others, it’s the learning process.

    I love when you nail a piece, the rythms and the feeling is all there, then you start recording and it immediately sounds stilted and you get that head panic

    • @DanielLearnsPiano
      @DanielLearnsPiano  2 роки тому

      Yes, the pressures of recording are real.
      My teacher told me about a piano event she was helping some of pupils with. It got cancelled due to Covid and the participants were given a choice to record a piece or do a live stream. Many opted to record, thinking that would be the easier option. After if was over they reported back that trying to get the recording was really stressful. And next time they’d probably just do the live stream. That way what’s done is done. There is no going back to fix things that aren’t quite right.
      I’m sure playing live has its own pressures. But at least it’s over after you have played the piece once.

      Probably. But if you screw up, and DONT hit stop on the recording and just let it roll as you attempt the piece again, the pressure is probably alleviated. Maybe.
      Do you do that?
      Great playing btw

      The first and last were the best. 🤦‍♂️ In hindsight, I could have just stopped after one and saved myself a load of time and no one would have known any different.

    That's really nice mate. My hopes are to be able to play at a similar level by two years.
    I've started studying for the ABRSM Initial Grade level, learning such greats as "Old MacDonald" & "Bobby Shafto" lol
    BUT!!!
    We all got to start somewhere eh ; )
    Keep the vids a popping man, they're an inspiration to me and countless others.

    • @DanielLearnsPiano
      @DanielLearnsPiano  2 роки тому

      Go for it! You won’t be playing that stuff for long. The beginner phase in playing the piano lasts a long time. I’d say I’m still a medium-late beginner. You just gotta put in the hours and progress will come.
