    those written down fingerings will be a huge help when reviving a piece you haven't played in a long time

    This is so true. Whenever I crack open an old piece, I always want to high-five my past self for adding them in.

    Very helpful video. I recently bought a music book (music from minecraft - easy piano collection) that has 'easy' piano arrangements, and while the arrangements might be easy, it had the bare minimum amount of finger numbers in it, and a few of the fingering suggestions just seemed downright bad. Having some principles/a guide to follow as I try to figure out my own fingerings is very useful!

    I've mastered this song a month ago but I watched the whole video and I surprisingly noticed many differences on how I play it vs how you play it. But my fingering is comfortable as well so I won't try to change it :)

    I'm glad you use this piece as an example of your fingering rules, which are all basically common sense, although we not always follow them. One of the problems that I face is ornaments, such as mordants and trills, which feel better for me using my second and third finger of my right hand, rather than say, my second finger and thumb or fifth and fourth fingers. So if I may, can I add another rule to the list? There is nothing gospel about fingering; if something feels more comfortable for you, for the size of your hand, or whatever, then feel free to change the fingering or modify the rules to suit your particular situation.

    Hey, thanks for the tutorial! This is my first (proper) classical piece and I have managed to learn almost 80% of it :) I had one question though. You mentioned that playing both 114 & 115 together would sound really good. I checked on KZread for such a combination but wasn't able to find a video where these both were bridged properly. In the video I found, there is a 2/3 measure rest after 114 and then 115 is played. I was wondering if these two minuets could have some melodic bridging rather than a simple rest?

    I would say in general, the finger pattern is essential if you want to properly move through the pieces fluidly. With that said, with other pieces I've played, the person must have giant sized hands such as George Winton's Cannon in C. My hands are just too small to reach say thumb to pinkie so I have to adjust. It's situations like that when I do change the fingering but mainly because of the reach of my small sized hands. Think of say a bunny rabbit trying to do the same fingering as say a Panda. Wouldn't make sense right? Thanks again fro a great video.

    Ha ha ha! George Winston does have a large hand span. Anecdotally speaking, my mom has tiny hands, but can comfortably reach an octave and is religious about editorial fingering. She has tiny hands, but a very good "hand span" - her thumb and pinkie can create a 180-degree angle. My hands are similar (but larger). So what I'm trying to say is, though I agree, I think even the small-handed among us will experience physical changes over time that allow for some reaches and fingerings that would once have seemed impossible. PS, I didn't intend that to be so long-winded - sorry!

    I'm actually learning this piece right now so great timing! I've been adjusting my hands so that my 2 and 3 fingers play the trill because I find it quite difficult with other fingers. Do you think this is okay in the second half even though it goes against the rule of keeping fingerlings similar?

  • @PianotvNet

    @PianotvNet

    7 жыл бұрын

    Sure, but with this caveat - practice trills with other fingers too, as finger warm-ups/exercises! Sometimes you'll just be stuck doing a 3-4 trill, so it's good to train for it when it happens. :)

    Wait a second. The mordent of the bar #8 is Bb A Bb A. Then in bar #9 happens the same. That mordent shouldn't go A Bb A? Oh, SHIT. I'm reading in Spanish and in English. There are contradictions: in Music Theory it's not trill and mordent, it's INFERIOR MORDENT and SUPERIOR MORDENT. The TRILL is the SUPERIOR MORDENT: If it's on an A, it goes A Bb A The MORDENT is THE INFERIOR MORDENT if it's on an A, it goes A G A. Theorists, come together and make my life easier. GOD DAMN IT.
