    i am concerned that Marc Andre is not yet _old_ enough to bring the kind of spiritual maturity to these gems that they demand (and frankly deserve) of an artist. the fourfold trill is not some light trifle for a child as say Beethovens opus 110 sonata. one must have suffered tremendous depths of despair to face its austere depths of ever deepening deepness. one must have more seasoning (like a delectable extra crunchy olive oil garlic butter and herb cracker) by the tumult of human existence to even approach purchasing, let alone opening! the score. i am no snob, but no artist of less than 96 years should have the temerity to offer an original interpretation. we have abonded all sense and reason, for shame!

      Very well said. Hamelin simply doesn’t have *it*! Nobody but the wizened ancient pianist is prepared. But Hamelin? No! He simply isn’t ready. When Exercise No. 5 introduces that twist, wherein the hands have a different pattern coming down instead of simply repeating the pattern as in the previous four exercises…handling that requires one who has experienced the twists and turns of life. One must be totally at a space of contentment, awareness, and supreme consciousness to handle that sheer neurosis! Is Hamelin the one? No. I’m sure we sound judgmental, but we must tell the truth!

    After this all-too-brief glimpse of the celestial and the stratospheric heights which one has been thusly elevated, I ruefully and hesitatingly bring myself from prostration at the alter of these revered pianoforte exercises of our Mr. C. Hanon, to come to this electronic medium in order to unreservedly express sheer admiration for the devotion and healing ministry our distinguished artist has lavishly brought to bear upon and gifted us with these beloved and familiar pithy sequences, here wrought with imperious divinity and exquisitely tasteful and nuanced tonal shading. Indeed, the four-fold trill is quite palpably overwhelming, the passionate 6ths cloying at one’s heart, the polyphonic strands an undiluted pleasure for both auricles and soul. Were they ever rendered with such benevolence hitherto?
    The gossamer, radiant glory which C major here affords us cannot be savoured enough throughout the 60, though the true connoisseur may - to spare complete engulfment of spirit - resist undertaking the repetitions so suggestively offered by their author, let alone what might constitute a complete overburdening of the palette by way of transposition. Temptation to delve into marketed editions of ‘Salsa Hanon’ , ‘Jazz Hanon’, or ‘Boogie Woogie Hanon’ might be considered glutinously excessive. No! Dare not contemplate defiling these ingenious gems contained within the yellowed covers of edition Schirmer. And do not be fooled by the austere paperbound exterior that belies a treasure trove of pianistic delectables!
    May one and all enjoy a lifetime’s work upon these salvational studies, having now basked in glowing inspirational splendor under the hands of the esteemed Mr. Hamelin - someone clearly a devotee, a pilgrim of this magnum opus. With a debt of gratitude, we give earnest thanks for yet further exposure to this immortal work.

      Actually C key or A minor (only white notes) is much harder than C# paradoxically. Chopin recommended to start scales with C# for beginners and normal C for more advanced players . The standard C scale is the hardest of them all . For arpeggios is different and F# major is the hardest . C# arpeggio is one of the easiest. So it’s probably why your teacher recommended you to practice in C sharp.

      you keep the same fingering. the point is, well one of the points is that you will have different stretches for different notes. in the first Hanon, you will have to play C#-E# with 5-4, a much bigger stretch than C-E left hand. right hand coming down will stretch C# - A# then B#-G#, much wider than doing it in C.

      If you practice Hanon like Hamlin and Lang Lang -- you will learn to play ...

    I wonder how many people will recognize that when Hamelin says that "this collection provides ample proof of how much can still be said in the key of C Major," he's quoting Schoenberg, who said "there is still plenty of good music to be written in C Major."

  • @lawrencetaylor4101
    @lawrencetaylor4101 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    I don't like to accuse Tonebase Piano of using clickbait, but Hanon is like Doritos. You can't just eat one.
    I would have to buy the entire set, in every key, Major, minor, melodic minor, harmonic minor, all the modes, the diminished scale, the augmented scale, the whole tone, the Pentatonic Scale, the Blues Scale....I'll have to take out another second mortgage on my house.
    Would Marc-André accept grandchildren in exchange? Most of them are potty-trained.
