    I had clear favorites before I got back into practicing new pieces. I still love the big 3 iconic Debussy pieces. Just added "Reverie" and "Claire de Lune" to my practices as well as Lizst's "Gymnopedie" and Handel's "Passacaglia" The list is now 8-9 pieces and includes the usual "Fur Elise", "Moonlight Sonata", Bach's first 2 "Minuets". I am also working on a couple of easier Schumanns but not the one you played. They are all beautiful but many on your list are just out of reach for now. But I have a good list of pieces I "visit" once in a while just to torture myself. Knowing how difficult the future is makes practicing the "easy" ones more productive. I am getting better faster so there is hope that I won't suck forever.

    All of these are just super famous pieces that get started immediately, I thought this video would be about specifically what makes the intros great, but all of these intros are just what the piece sounds like the whole time! An ACTUAL example of a good intro would be Appassionata 3rd movement, it perfectly sets the mood, but it's actually an intro, not just... you know, the piece.

    I’m a little surprised Chopin’s Waltz in Eb was chosen over some other pieces. Don’t get me wrong, that waltz is probably in my top 3 favorite pieces by Chopin, but I don’t think too many non-pianists are familiar with it. I think more people might be familiar with Chopin’s nocturne in Bb Minor, or even his funeral march? Or perhaps Revolutionary Etude, or even Black Keys Etude? 🤓

    Hi, hope you're doing well. I just got some question. So basically I can play entrance from phyx ion. But I have a big fingering problem which reside in the following with the left hand. Fa, do, Fa, sol, la b, sol, fa, do, fa, sol, si b, la b, fa, do, sol. (all notes on the same 8th) And that at 260 tempo. So what's the position you would suggest. I got used to 2,5,2,1,2,1,2,5,2,1,2,1,2,5,2,1. But that really don't work with such hight tempo. Anyone who'll answer this will be my hero! ❤

    Can you make a tutorial how to strengthen those fingers ? I have a big problem in performance stage. The keys of piano which I practice are required a Force about 2-3g to touch. However, the keys of piano at performance stage are super heavy and required about 7-9g to touch. My tutor simply said that I just need to come soon to play and get familiar with grand piano. But only 10-15 minutes are impossible to get familiar with the heavy touching and everything were mess later... 😢 (no more time because it's crowded and only 15 minutes per pianist) Are there any exercises to strengthen fingers stronger ? I mean it's required to strengthen daily, not before the stage. P/s: most of time I practice on upright piano at home and I have not many chance to play on grand piano.
