Hi everyone! Which piece is your favorite piece to get rid of some aggressions? 😬🤪 Seriously- you should never be aggressive with your instrument… anyway - wishes for the next challenges?
Beethoven's turkish march (Rubinstein's arrangment) is a great way to get your aggression off (if you can play it properly). And I would sugest prelude opus 23 no. 7 in c minor by Rachmaninoff for the next chalenge.
Good for aggression - Chopin Prélude op. 28 no. 22 in G minor - gone in under a minute! Good for a challenge - 6 Études de concert, Op.35 No. 2 "Automne" (Chaminade) 😃
Mazeppa... Annoying as it is to get every note correct, it’s... Ps:the hardest part of Prelude in G minor is the middle... Anything consisting of large jumps or octaves/chords I am fine with... Part of the reason why I consider Feux Follets harder than Paganini etude 4 (1858
My neighbour is a literal profesional pianist, so if anything, listening to him playing makes me want to practice. Plus, i dont understand why people get mad; as long as they are playing in normal hours, its basically a free concerto. Taking a bath hits just different when someone is performing in the next room
My neighbors told me that when I play the piano they listen close to it and try to relax listening to classical music, this really motivated me to keep playing
I'm blown away by how fast she can learn these insanely difficult pieces... Like I take 2 weeks to 1 month month to learn even some simple stuff and I can go up to 6-7 months on a hard piece...
Been learning this piece on and off for... years... It's beyond my level but it's teaching me to play "thumpy, bangy" pieces without tiring my hands out. That beautiful middle section also has its own challenges in the left hand. Good to see someone with a massively better technique than mine stumble over a few bits, to be honest!
I have just found your channel and firstly what a brilliant pianist you are. What I love also are your comments on the music when you are practicing. It is very interesting and gives a real insight into the music and the problems that a pianist faces. I look forward to following you in the future and thank you for sharing your talent with us. Alan.
Mein Gott, du kannst es wirklich. Ich lerne grade die Prelude in C sharp minor und die in g minor ist mein großes Ziel... Als erstes ist mir aufgefallen, dass Du die gleichen Noten hast wie ich. Guter Verlag! Dann fand ich es cool, dass Du genau die gleichen Sachen erklärt hast wie mein Lehrer mir immer erklärt... aus der Tastatur und alles muss vorbereitet sein... usw. Tolles Video, weiter so!
I feel like it is very common for us pianists to humanize our instruments! Keep making these awesome videos! Also, I love how you freak out every time the one-hour timer goes off 🤣
I know op 3 no 2 is more popular, but I've always loved op 23 no 5. It's my favourite Rachmaninoff piece, so beautiful! And the fact that you can play something like this off of the sheets is just ridiculous! Equal parts impressive and infuriating, haha!
To watch this channel or rather to listen to it or both - is a highlight really in more than one respect. I pickup musical pieces that I would not come across otherwise, being attached to the „really classical“ period of music, shameful to say but true all the same. Music is not just the sound of it, it is also struggling with how to do it right, just like struggling with one‘s life proper. Thanks for all these moments!
I've been playing the piano for about 4 years and have been practicing the piece for 15 months (about 20 minutes a day) and can now play it to the beginning of the middle section. It will probably take me another 15 months to play it fully and at the tempo, but it's worth it to me. 😄 @ Annique It's amazing how far you got in 1 hour and 11 minutes. By the way, my neighbors usually don't hear me because I have an e-piano and don't turn it up that loud or play with headphones.
I got a digital piano, at the moment it was the best choice for me... It's almost a year since I got back to Piano and your videos are so informative, thank you!!
I rediscovered this channel after maybe 1-2 years? Its amazing to see how far you have come, i remember when you had like 12k subs haha. Very awesome to see you are still very similar and you also have merch now! Pretty cool stuff
Hi. THANKS SO MUCH for this and your other videos. There are a lot of piano-playing TH-camrs (I mean, serious ones who play, like, real music very well), but you're the only one I've found so far who talks such sense about wrist technique, moving away from the keys, not bashing downwards into the piano and things like that. I really appreciate your affirmation here; someone just occasionally think of the poor pianos huddling under the assault, or even the ears of the people sitting in the concert hall (though I can see the argument that they might have brought it on themselves)... Myself if I want to blow off steam I just scream, swear and break things, but not in the same room as my piano, who's a peaceable sort of cove that I'd hate to see hit by a flying frying pan. Funnily enough I've never found music to represent anger very well. It's too damned beautiful. I do like playing Chopin's Revolutionary Etude, but I suppose that's less angry than tragic.
I learned this in 2 weeks for a personal challenge, and found that it has a nice balance between muscle memory and playing by eye. I didn't play it again for 4 months, (I found that it wasn't usable for the exam level I was studying towards) and upon returning, was surprisingly able to make it through OK. A brilliant piece that I would highly recommend learning. You can do it!
🤣😂🤣😂🤣🤭🤭🤭🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣 I laughed sooo hard after that 10 minutes try. You are brilliant!! You hear me? Brilliant!! Yes, show must go on! I love you! I must try that too. It already was on my bucket list, but now I will have more courage. Thank you! Show must go on!!!🤗🤣😂🤣🤗
Loll i really enjoyed the video!! I love how energetic you are, you always make my day when you post a new video. My piano is a digital one so I usually play with headphones on, I guess my neighbors like it better this way. " I tell my piano the things I used to tell you." I think that quote of Chopin just sums up the situation, Chopin is a relatable person indeed!
I recently found your channel and am quite enjoying it. You're a very happy person; even when you make a mistake you laugh and keep going, whereas I always get mad and swear when I'm playing and make a mistake. Your approach is probably smarter. I never go this fast when I'm first learning a piece. I go one hand, then the other, then together, then speed up. If I'm having trouble with a section I go back to one hand at a time until I've figured it out. You pick things up a lot faster than I do, but you're a professional who plays for an audience while I'm an amateur who hates playing in front of others so your goals are bigger than mine. As requested I'd give you 8 out of 10 for picking up the new piece so quickly but mark you down because you go too fast and make a lot of mistakes. I suppose the aim of the challenge is to get through as much of the piece as possible in the time allotted, but I strive for accuracy over length played. Different strokes for different folks. I asked an old piano teacher about a speed exercise to play faster, since pianists are like fighter pilots because we "feel the need for speed", and he showed me one you probably know, where you start the right hand at middle c then skip d to play e f g a then back down, moving your thumb from c to d and then back up. When you get one full c octave up, go back down to middle c reversing what you first did to go up the octave. Again with your right hand, put your pinky on "high c", skip b then play a g f e then back up to b and so on, eventually returning to middle c. Then do the same thing with the left hand but down from middle c (c skip b agfe to start, etc.). Eventually you can put both hands together. I never could get my left hand to be as fast as my right, and that's really obvious when playing the exercise hands together, but it's still a good technique to get faster. As usual with technical work, I got bored and added a cdefg line before doing the cefga just for some variety. You can also do 2 octaves instead of one. Anyway, nerding out a bit here. I also don't use a metronome unless I want to see what the tempo should be, but then turn it off again right away because it's so monotonous and annoying, so kudos to you for hanging in there with that. I also don't know why your neighbours would be mad at you unless they're head bangers or something; classical music is great to listen to unless you're practising at 3 in the morning. I most like to play at 11 at night before going to sleep, and did that all the time I had a house, but now that I'm in an apartment I don't want to disturb my neighbours so I play during the day or early evening.
It is so helpful to See These Kind of 1-10-1 Challenges. Someone like me can learn a lot! I always thought about how it would be learning this piece. With my very Limited skills I perform like 1 day - 10 weeks - 1 year 😀😀😀
I learnt this in my teens I still make mistakes at the jumps And the fingering for the heroic section starting with an e flat chord is so much easier for people with larger hands! I only realised that when I got older
I have no problem practicing. I have an N3X hybrid piano. I love the fact that I can turn down the volume while still having much of the grand piano experience.
I have this one neighbor which called police on me because if practicing, but not once, not twice, multiple times! 😢 My solution was to move the piano in the other room :)) ANYWAY I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS!!💗
That was impressive. I put 20 hours of practice in it and didn't finish the piece and you do 1/3 of it in one hour. I enjoyed hearing your practice tips, particularly regarding the repeated notes and pushing away from the keys instead of into them. I'll try to practice these.
I’m trying this method on Gershwin’s Rhapsody in Blue. Happy surprise…..it works. Thank you. I don’t have it mastered yet but working page by page with the 1, 10 and 60 minutes has made a huge difference.
Hi Annique! Well, I don't have a problem with noise annoying neighbors because I play a digital piano (actually a Kawai VPC1 MIDI controller, running PianoTeq). I can set the volume low in the morning, loud in the afternoon (when most of my neighbors are not home), and use headphones "after hours", so everything is good. I think for most non-professionals, especially people who play only at home for their own enjoyment, this winds up being the best solution...
Great work on a great piece. If you get tired of the pressure of the solo limelight, you could have Chantal back for a video. I think we all liked the video with her.
Here are some songs you might want to try this challenge with: Tchaikovsky's Piano Conserto 1. Arr. By P. Grainger Rachmaninov - Italian Polka Liszt - Un Sospiro
Thanks so much for the video of your practicing of the prelude. I am performing this in a recital on June 10th and am very worried about my memory (especially in the beautiful slower section), as well as not losing the rhythm. Relaxing is also an issue for me. I've listened to literally almost every performance of this prelude on TH-cam to get a sense of how others interpret the piece. Perhaps doing this was is not a good idea. I appreciate your explanation of 'pushing away' from the keys. Again, thanks for the video.
Dieses Stück hat mich auf eine Idee gebracht, welches andere Stück vielleicht für eine Challange passen könnte: Brahms, 118 Nr. 3 (Auch g-moll und kraftvoll, hat auch einen sehr schönen Mittelteil)
I saw Rachmaninov prelude i was like FINALLYYYYYYYYY and I saw I G minor not C# minor ooooowwww I like it though but still waiting for the best piece ever (Rachmaninoff prelude in C# minor)
you really need to listen to all of his pieces to say wich piece is the best of his. and there are really much better Rachmaninoff pieces than prelude op 3 no 2. unless you already listened to every of his pieces than what i'm saying is wrong but still....
The only thing I dislike about this channel is how embarrassed I get after hearing the proper pronunciation of names I’ve been saying wrong for years. 🤣
I agree with you Annique, I have big hands and still the chords make this music a nightmare. Btw, I'm not crazy I don't talk to my piano, I talk to my fingers asking them why are they so bad at playing
Hello, Annique, you must really very good exercise to play this masterpiece the right way! Exercise well and exercise every day, if possible. This is something like classical standard, you know. And I wish you to be succesful in your work. I know something about it. You can trust me. I can give you only one advise. Play this piece again and again and again in a slow tempo but of course in a right rythm! It´s a tempo "a la marcia" it means tempo like march in English! It must be the iron rythm like Rachmaninoff did! That´s the magic!
My favorite piece!! I haven’t seen the video yet but I’m sure you’ll play it amazingly!! ❤️❤️ Ps: I do talk to my piano as if it is playing and not me 🤣
Oh yes, the 'pounding' you're talking about I'm very aware of it. I always tried to avoid it but I didn't realize it was a 'thing' to notice (I thought it was just my own preference). I only did notice it in other players and I cringed every time I heard it. I consider it the difference between 'performing' a piece and 'blasting it out' so to speak. I also considered it the difference between a beginner or amateur, and a polished performance artist.
I tried this after about 2 years after playing. It was very hard the first page. But I was able to do the complete middle part. (The 1st Page only did the first two lines)
Oh no, you did not get the play the beautiful lyrical mid-section D: but the first section is probably also what you were aiming for when you wanted to blow off some steam ^^ as always, very impressive how fast you made progress on such a challenging piece
I have Really nice neighbours so sometimes I open window in my room and do full 45-90’min concerto which includes 15-30 pieces and they love it! Some old folks even bring me some chocolate for that hahah so I guess that make it up for the time when I’m practicing revolutionarie etude over and over haha
As usual really enjoyed watching your self imposed torture as the results were magical :-) Also because the g minor prelude is my favorite prelude, especially Hofmann playing it. Also with the abandoning of Russian composers and their works here in the UK by some orchestras; what has art created 100+ years ago to do with geopolitics in 2022!?, I'm comforted to see that some artists/performers haven't.

Annoying as it is to get every note correct, it’s...
Ps:the hardest part of Prelude in G minor is the middle...
Anything consisting of large jumps or octaves/chords I am fine with...
Part of the reason why I consider Feux Follets harder than Paganini etude 4 (1858
Probably Liszt transcendental etude no 4
I played this piece before, took me about 6 months. And here we have annique who got it done in an hour and eleven minutes.
Like learning the piece down or having to a performance level?
well, as much as she is really efficient learning she did not learn the piece in one hour.
@@r.j4449 I meant the commenter above. 6 months would be a lot of time to just get the piece down.
i tried it some years ago and never got the fast octaves right... but i really enjoyed playing the middle part :-)
@@salazin466 it’s quite of a hard piece tho
My neighbour is a literal profesional pianist, so if anything, listening to him playing makes me want to practice.

Hello Annique! I just wanted to say that I've quit playing the piano for 4 years and you're the reason I am currently re learning it!
I'm blown away by how fast she can learn these insanely difficult pieces...

It’s not that hard

A couple of other Rachmaninov suggestions Op 32 No.13 in D flat major or for something a little less heavy, No. 5 in G major.
My favorite piece!! I haven’t seen the video yet but I’m sure you’ll play it amazingly!! ❤️❤️
Ps: I do talk to my piano as if it is playing and not me 🤣
*_watch the video to say something, hahahaha_*

You are very inspiring!
Oh yes, the 'pounding' you're talking about I'm very aware of it. I always tried to avoid it but I didn't realize it was a 'thing' to notice (I thought it was just my own preference). I only did notice it in other players and I cringed every time I heard it. I consider it the difference between 'performing' a piece and 'blasting it out' so to speak. I also considered it the difference between a beginner or amateur, and a polished performance artist.
Great, I'm studying salsa only🤪😅 greetings from Cali Colombia 🇨🇴✌️🙋🏻♀️🌹
I tried this after about 2 years after playing. It was very hard the first page. But I was able to do the complete middle part. (The 1st Page only did the first two lines)
Oh no, you did not get the play the beautiful lyrical mid-section D: but the first section is probably also what you were aiming for when you wanted to blow off some steam ^^ as always, very impressive how fast you made progress on such a challenging piece
Oh I've learnt the beginning of this prelude before, and I remember it was so fun to play. I've all but forgotten it now though..
I have Really nice neighbours so sometimes I open window in my room and do full 45-90’min concerto which includes 15-30 pieces and they love it! Some old folks even bring me some chocolate for that hahah so I guess that make it up for the time when I’m practicing revolutionarie etude over and over haha
Love it!
You should try Prelude op.3 №2 in Cis moll
Hallow Annique...congratulatuons...😊
Annique I hope you and your families are safe
As usual really enjoyed watching your self imposed torture as the results were magical :-) Also because the g minor prelude is my favorite prelude, especially Hofmann playing it. Also with the abandoning of Russian composers and their works here in the UK by some orchestras; what has art created 100+ years ago to do with geopolitics in 2022!?, I'm comforted to see that some artists/performers haven't.
Oh man, the Walz you put in the back while you explained what you practiced is my nightmare😂
Well play ! Was funny, it's really hard to play this !
I love Rachmaninoff's preludes. Would love to see 23/4 (just so beautiful) and/or 32/4 (jarring and somehow still beautiful).
Very impressive for only 1Min, 10Min, 1Hour, let alone a few months.
6:30 i spent so much time on that exact same spot it took me like 15 straight minutes to get it right
Scriabin op 42 no 5. Please!
i feel your pain. When i am studying a complicated piece (organ) my brain starts melting and i have to have a break for a bit
