The three-octave scales are daunting. I like how the A notes in the right are played the same time as the A chords in the left. I feel "safe" each time I complete a scale and reach the next A. The same in the F# scales. Always practised scales 4 notes to the beat. The uneven division in H.R.2 threw me for some time.
You are so special both as a musician, as an educator and as a person... Thank you for presenting your ideas in an honest and sincere way that will benefit us. What you said on this subject is really valuable. To make music well and be satisfied with what you do, you don't have to do it in front of all the people with your hands shaking with anxiety. Of course, the applause at the finale is worth a lot, but if everyone made music for this purpose, music would turn into something devoid of the secrets, mysteries and emotions of the human soul. Some people are competent enough to do this job without losing their motivation and love of music.They know how to deal with this well. Let the stage be theirs and let the bond between you and the music you love continue to nourish you as something special that you offer to the people you are close to who enter your home.
Wright is right.
Hi Josh! Thanks for those tips and they really really helped! I am actually having trouble with measure 468 to 471. Do you have any tips on that? Thank you!!!
Awesome. I agree 💯👍
Josh, I told my girlfriend this evening that I was learning Liszt's Mephisto Waltz. I was saying how amazing it was, showing her Trifonov and Berezovsky recordings (she's Russian too). She goes, you know what would be amazing... if you painted the house this summer! 😂
Love your videos Josh! I don't have much time to practice these days w/ work and all, but I always enjoy seeing your enthusiasm for the classical piano repitoire.
I also find that Activated Charcoal helps
Just play it with both hands if that's easier. No need to play it with one hand only because someone once said so and had it printed in a score. Also don"t count, just play as many as you like. I just heard a Rubinstein recording where he added a couple of beats (groups of four 16th notes). These passages with embellishments, rubatos etc. are composed in an improvisational style, and improvising yourself will do the piece justice, as long as you are competent and have something to contribute.
Thank you Josh, it has been very inspiring!!!
Thank you! I already feel more confident.
I bought the course and are enjoying it a lot. Such musical explanation and performance. Thank you Josh.
It's interesting because I've heard that we should rather anticipate the 2nd beat. I guess the result is the same...
Thank you so much for sharing. Could you tell me how much of the Calcium D-Glucarate you take? Like for how long and how frequently?
My goal is to become a concert pianist and a composer but have no winning competitions history but and I’ve told my self maybe I can’t but this before gave me the courage to keep on going
This advice really nailed it for me! I have been told to follow the scales and do the crossing and perhaps it's good in some ways but this unlocked my stumbling problem on the keys when moving! Thanks!
Some good food for thought but coming from a guy who is not exactly short of money (a $900 mic??) ya hafta wonder... I live in small town Mexico.. unlike SLC, there's not exactly a surplus of piano teachers in this little pueblo, Maybe Guadalajara but not here... and that $100K Steinway piano?... maybe in some cartel operatives house (there are a few arond here, they have nice things) but not mine...I hafta make do with (gasp!) a cheap Casio keyboard... has bonus weighted keys though. ..onward with Mary had a Little Lamb...plinkity plonk
thank you Josh
What a great idea!
I play the violin in several folk music and foilkdance guilds and am somewhat familliar with piano, I can play some easier melodies. But im totally lost when it comes to the scale system and or harmony with keys. But this was outmost pedagogic and easy to understand, even for me who is self taught in both instruments.
what type of detailer spray is used in this video?
Hi Josh! I really need some help on a passage with an awkward trill(s) that is driving me crazy as not knowing what to do. It’s from Pletnev’s sleeping beauty, mvmt 2 (the page dance), bars 17 & 33.
God bless
💥 Josh, I'm now dedicated to improve my sight reading technique, but when I sight read a piece, or even after playing it reading, nothing stays on my brain afterwards. When I read it again, it's like always the first time. It looks like my brain consumes all resources to sight reading and disables memory. In order to memorize something, I need to play it very slowly, paying attention, and splitting the piece in sections. I E. Either I read the piece, but can't memorize, or I have to work completely different for memorizing. I'm 57 now. When I was very young, I had a poor reading, but excellent memory. Now, I improved a lot my music reading, but doing that, I can't memorize for example, Scriabin or modern music. But I feel easy to memorize Chopin, Liszt, Beethoven or Mozart, because their music makes sense to my brain. What advice could you give to me, please, in order that I improve my reading and this reading helps on memorization ? Thank you very much. 🎉❤
Hey Josh, an idea for a video which I noticed you haven't touched so much yet: What is musicality? Million dollar question, of course, but I'm sure you would have some fascinating insights given your background. :) I'm struggling at the boundary between following your teacher's directives regarding interpretation and having "genuine" personal musicality.
Hi Ana - great question! I actually talk about musicality in every video - it can include voicing, dynamics (I often refer to dynamics as “shaping”), rubato, how you interpret articulation, and much more. I hope that clarifies things for you. Have a great week and i wish you all the best in your studies!
Should I stop using antifungal cream on it as well?
This man has revealed everything!!!!
Großartige Arbeit geleistet!!!
Thank you!
I'm obsessed with this piece! One of his greatest mazurkas imo. Wonderful stuff as always, Josh!
Thank you so much. This is one of my favorites as well :)
Thank you for the tips ^^
Just have to say: “YOU ARE one of the greatest !!!!!”
Thank you for your kind words
You captured the very sorrowful nature of the piece.
Wunderschöne Arie, so ruhig und elegant, mit leichten Tempo, zärtlich und grandios, Rhythmus Mazurka spürbar, eine herrliche klassische Ballade, wunderbar romantisch, gefühlvoll, alte Volkslied in die slawische Ländern , Meister seines Fachs, Danke Hauser König 👑
he is basically saying please don't be a concert pianist there is no need to add more people to an already competitive job market
I really needed to hear this. Thank you Josh
Thank you🤗
It is 2024 and I just found your channel. This is advice is still quite relevant. Thank you.
Really useful, thank you so much and wishing you every success!
Thank you very much. Brilliant. I found these tips very useful.
We use to dunk my mom's hands in ice water to soothe her itchy hands it really helped her..and also when applying moisturizer take a spoon of ice water and mix with moisturizer and apply it..hope it helps
This looks and sounds exceedingly difficult. Very nice performance.
C’est du très beau piano.
2 deep 4 me!
