I assume it took him at least some weeks to prepare the materials, record, edit, etc. A lot of work for us!! Thanks Paul!! Will start learning this etude :)
You are beautiful mein freund! You have transformed my whole repertoire! I've never been able to play in front of people for the last 40 years and now I do recitals on a regular basis. Played this at a dinner party while everyone was talking and it was a great experience, because they camouflaged all my mistakes! I tell everyone about you! I've had great teachers at great conservatories in Europe and great teachers here is the US, but nobody taught me HOW to practice until I met you. You're an angel from Himmel!
"The faster tempos of Chopin's studies only have technical benefits to a pianist when the foundations of technique are strong, most often brought about by slow patient practice." Brilliant statement and one of many that indicate your high intelligence and great ability to communicate.
The mindset of looking at vert shorts passages as small etudes in themselves really helped me. Not a quick fix, but definitely a fix, also improving my practising in general I guess. Thanks man
Paul Barton - THANK YOU SO MUCH. I was stuck at this study. There is nothing better explained as your videos, really, you saved my piano studies in this whole lockdown... Big thumbs up from Brazil!
I reealy feel like we need to all nominate you for the Nobel Peace Prize for all the Great Work you do for the Arts, Humanity and the entire Earth. God Bless You, Paul!
What a legend. Amazing pianist and teacher, so good at teaching and patient and methodical. Shows a demonically difficult passage and speaks gently like reading a bedtime story. This is one of the best things I’ve seen on TH-cam
who says ?? if chopin had 2 left hands then he also had 2 right hands his genius was that both his hands could be made to play the same stuff what i mean is that he could play a melody with his left hand and bass in the right and vice versa . that was his brain hence a genius thats beside composition of course
This is truly revolutionary. It's about time someone brought piano instruction out of the stone age-- what a wonderful idea. Thank you Paul. Can't wait to see Chopin's Etude 10/2 and Un Sospiro (2 of my favorites). Here are my requests, even though they are all over the place in terms of difficulty: Rachmaninoff Moment Musicaux op. 16 no.4, Chopin Ballad 1, Chopin Ballad 4, Rachmaninoff PC #2 (technical parts), Rachmaninoff Elegie Op. 3 no. 1, Debussy Claire de Lune. Would love to see any!!
It's incredible how much simpler it actually is when broken down and analyze, the tumultuous pounding of the keys give it a expression that make it sound convoluted to listen to!! but i learn this piece just recently and it's so fun to play!!!!
I especially love listening to the crisp clarity of 12:17 you can distinctly hear the marked G,G,Fx and no binding or hesitation on the weaker fingers. For me, this is one of the hardest parts in this piece to polish.. Brilliant!
Interesting to note that knowing how to practice is what teaches should be showing their students to do and these videos extend into the way one can work at the piano and its multifaceted as you know and takes a lot of patience and work. Its called discipline which is not a word that we want to hear but its necessity to make progress and reach your goals. I would like to say that is called more the Art of Practice, sort of being in the zone unlike a certain form of Zen Like Apprehension. Nevertheless, Bravo to Paul Barton who is a blessing and a great teacher. Thanks Paul and I am grateful for having discovered you here on the Internet.
shubus same here unfortunately i had great zeal but now i realise a great teacher is a MUST otherwise many hours will be wasted and bad habits learned therefore giving up
12:16 YES! everyone talks about the third page but never that one bar! Sometimes (guiltily) i'll just pray that my left hand can cover up the sloppiness of it, but it's so staccato it's in plain sight for the ears!
Thank YOu So Much Mr. Paul Barton For Giving Us a very detail in how u practice and improve each section in this piece and also explain so much useful information to every pianist in youtube u are such a great teacher!!! U give So much time on recording all the hours you practice then everything include in a final video not many people are willing to do the same thing as you did Thx!!!!
Hi Paul, I took a two year's detour to study the Chopin etudes. Thank you for your tutorials. From the get go, I learned them by playing them all the deeply all way down to the key bed (per your advice,) pianissimo, and in a relaxed manner. All the bumps are gone. Op 10 No 4 I can play at 200 MM. but that is too fast. Patience, persistence paid off. I now feel comfortable playing the so called easier nocturnes and preludes etc. The Etudes, IMHP are indispensable fact for playing the piano
Thanks a lot Paul for posting this video . I am presently studying this Etude and I find your tips and advise very helpful; You are a very talented pianist, and I admire your generosity, which is that you do not keep your talents for yourself but agree to make others benefit from them. Thanks again
Very valuable and dense! Paul I don’t know if you’re getting comments on old videos but I just wanted to tell you I’m taking this video apart with a fine tooth comb and it is amazing so thank you so much I needed this so badly to move forward
This is such a wonderful resource, and we really do appreciate it Paul. Getting so close with No 12 now. I hope to have the video for you before the end of the year, but the proof of the pudding is in the eating.
Hi Paul Thanks a lot for your tutorials. Since Livitsa Valentina released her etudes i've been inspired to attain mastery of all of them! I have since found your tutorials very useful and have shared them with my piano students. You are very knowledgable and fun to watch and just want to let you know I appreciate your mission and wish you the best from here in Philadelphia, USA. Cheers -Matt
That's great! I think that general tips on playing scales, like how one can achieve a smooth seamless thumb passage or how to build speed would be best. Many scales share the same fingerings, so I think it would be ok if you just talked about them in general and gave some specific advice on those which aren't "normal". A long video with links to important sections would be great. Trills and other common techniques could be treated separately as could be major/minor scales. My 2 cents =)
You are making quite a revolution in piano teaching in general, making such wonderful tutorials online. Praise for you, you really deserve it =) (BTW, these studies are too much for me yet, but I enjoy watching your tutorials very much nonetheless!)
I thought Etudes are very difficult pieces and dare not to try. Thanks for your ideas to break down difficult parts into easy to practise sections. I have more confidence in learning Etudes since I watched the videos again and again.Can't wait for more tutorials, especially the Appassionata. Thanks Paul!
Many thanks for the reply Paul. I've been working on your micro-study No 5 for the left hand during the last week and it's definitely helping a great deal! -- a long way to go though!!
I love watching your videos! even if I don't play the piano very much beacuse I play the pipe organ, I really like watching them and just learn stuff that can be help full not only for this specific but in general. You really are a great pianist and a good teacher!
This modulation pattern idea is elaborated in Cortot and you may find versions from pianists such as Ganz,Joseffy and Dohnanyi, it has been taken up for many other instruments including flute. One possible ancestor for it is a modulation passage in Paganini Opus one Caprice 1. I'm sure most good teachers use some version of it - there are traces of the procedure in for example "Michael Aaron Piano Course grade 5" page 6 hints at the mod. procedure adapted to Bach prelude in D from WTC 1..
Cannot be more grateful to see this video when practicing. And could you upload once again for micro-study because the link to google+ is not available :(
Many thanks for another great educational video, I am sure there are many who really appreciate your efforts. I see the upright Yamaha with the sticking 'B' has been gracefully retired!
what I really appreciated is right at the beginning of the video you mention having a good piano which is a factor in this piece. Well, I recorded it on youtube on my lousy piano and right before the decline my notes start to stick because my piano doesnt have good action. Its a blast to play and I put it on. It slows down my time a little. I dont know if I'm aloud to say this but to hear me write in Nanetteski and my videos will pop up. And I have very small hands.
I'm not currently learning this piece, but I found the contraction exercises at 06:06 extremely helpful when it came to playing the cadenza from Chopin's Nocturne op. 27 no. 2. Thank you, Paul :)
I performed all three movements of the Beethoven “Moonlight’ sonata on my senior high school recital after only three years of piano study. There is only two steps to master that movement. 1. Find an excellent teacher. 2. Divide it into very small sections and start at a very slow tempo. If you don’t have a good teacher to show you how to move your hand to achieve maximum speed all the tutorials in the world won’t help you. Watch the tutorial on the 3rd movement posted online by The Bach Scholar, Cory something.
Dear Paul, Thank you so much for putting so much effort in making videos like this for us. I can not tell how much I appreciate your work and I learned a lot from them. One thing about this video I would mention is that I couldn't access the 18-minute "Piano Exercise - Contractions Warm-Up" for this Etude. Can you please recheck the link again? Thank you and I wish you all the best. Looking forward to more works from you.
As always this is an inspirational video... I wondered, whilst not at the standard to tackle the Etudes themsleves, I wonder whether you see your "micro-studies" as a useful study in their own right, and who knows, if they go well, perhaps the whole Etude?
You are an inspiring teacher. I am now indulging my desire to write my own transcriptions for the piano of other composer's music. Once you get it with the Chopin Etudes, it will change you whole view of piano. One should not approach the Etudes with fear, but with joyous enlightenment. It makes you a better pianist Is there anyway I can contact you and send videos to you? Not that I have anything to prove, but anyone with resolve can master them is they wish. Thank you again Maestro Paul
I can't hear English. But I understand to some extent the practice you taught. They are very easy to understand. I really like etude op10.no.4. I'll practice with the practice methods you showed me used Google translation
I‘m currently practicing this etude, and when I play bar 22, my score has a d flat in this measure, but in this video I heard you play a d natural in 19:00 and I wasn’t sure if my score was correct... is it supposed to be a d natural here?
thanks Paul. my previous recording BEFORE using your mico methods was too unevely played, that is not good, speed is not a probelm but playing evenly is a problem. . SO soon I will post my recoding again using your corrctive action and ATM at 120 is my controlled speed before I pass audience stage. I will post it to you and you can tell me if I can speed up further. Do you have your own donation site. I appreciated your help as pointed out by my UK friends. Thanks again..
oh thanks for the response =) I think it would be very helpful if you made some tutorials for less experienced players, such as how to play scales (I wish I could play super fast scales) and other fundamental techniques which helps on achieving higher levels of piano playing. But that's just my opinion, I don't know if there are other people interested on such tutorials. Thanks again, cheers!
It's sooooo difficult!! I should have more patience playing it slower. I get excited almost too often and it ends in disaster. I wanna tear the music sheet and just bang on the piano. Sniff sniff. Maybe in 5 years, hopefully.
Thank you- I'm inspired to find the score and give this a try, thanks to your awesome video. By the way, I LOVE how your piano sounds- bright in the upper register and very deep bass. I've never heard of that make of piano, though?
Interestingly Paul...and I couldn't tell you why, but I find your performance on the old upright yamaha better than the performance on the grand piano. I have a feeling that the higher pitched notes are too light or twinkly rather than the slightly more rich sound of the upright. It may just be the recording itself on the demonstration of the grand piano, but I'd be interested to hear if others actually agree with me.
I guess it's the C minor Bk.1? Playing Bach on piano is quite subjective, personally I love his music on piano and guess you do too (?) I'd be happy to have a go at it on video with tutorial if you think it might help ... (next week maybe)
I thought I could prepare this for my Masters audition next year...it’s so fast and my hands barely reach an octave. I dunno whether I can make it in time.
YESSS same here! I do really feel like being in need of those micro-study exercises! Please fix the link Paul Barton we would be very greatful for that!
Paul is basically providing a half hour piano lesson for free. Respect.
I assume it took him at least some weeks to prepare the materials, record, edit, etc. A lot of work for us!! Thanks Paul!! Will start learning this etude :)
You are beautiful mein freund! You have transformed my whole repertoire! I've never been able to play in front of people for the last 40 years and now I do recitals on a regular basis.

Both here, and on Facebook, I have often spoken about the practice techniques that both Horowitz and Virgil Fox drilled into me at a young age.

I laughed at "totally unwatchable but, it's there" :) loved that
Mr Paul you truly are a treasure thank you so much for these videos from Los Angeles
Your videos are great. You have the gift to easily teach very difficult issues. Thank you very much for this very hard work you've made.
12:16 YES! everyone talks about the third page but never that one bar! Sometimes (guiltily) i'll just pray that my left hand can cover up the sloppiness of it, but it's so staccato it's in plain sight for the ears!
I find it easier using the fingering 2121 / 4231/ 4231 / 4231 in the left hand, it is suggested by Alfred Cortot.
Thank YOu So Much Mr. Paul Barton For Giving Us a very detail in how u practice and improve each section in this piece and also explain so much useful information to every pianist in youtube u are such a great teacher!!!
