Wonderful tutorial! It a joy to watch you teach! Beautiful dress, too.
Thank you for your great message! I really appreciate hearing that the lesson was helpful. How fortunate we are to have this passionate work to learn and to play, and to be able to "clothe our feelings in sound!"
Thank you so much. I love your passion, your devotion, your love and vibration to music. So bad you’re so far, would have loved to have as a teacher, you give to music a very high degres of meaning.
Hello Michel, thank you for your thoughtful and meaningful words. I appreciate you speaking to what I believe music is and can be for us:
a sacred offering which immediately comes back to us and nourishes and uplifts our spirits. Very best wishes to you and with your playing!
why did 17 people click dislike? she played very nicely and thank you for posting.
Hello Jian, thank you for your kind message which I appreciate hearing! Best wishes to you!
Jealousy and envy that is all that I can come up with.
Sally and her playing are simply lovely
@@EternaLivesMatter
Envy is the right word.
Jealousy is the characteristic of wanting someone all to
oneself, not wanting the person who one is obsessed with to escape one's control. HUGE DIFFERENCE.
Thank you for your thoughtful message, Abby!
Thank you. I am working on this now. It's an amazing piece.
Sally showed me such beautiful and interesting places in this intermezzo that the work inspired me to further practice and discover Schumann's compositions ... I like Estrella, Chiarina or Chopin from the carnival ... I love poets from children's scenes ... and here you have shown me another dimension of Schumann ... his probably most intimate ... love and passion ... Thank you and I hope that you will bring many more inspiring videos. 👍😊
Hello Jozef, thank you for your wondeful words about this tutorial! I am very happy to hear that you are inspired by the lesson and the love and passion this piece proclaims. I'm glad you are also exploring many of Schumann's other compositions. Thank you for your support of my work and your encouragement for more videos! All best wishes to you. 🎵
My friend in university used to play this all the time, now that he cant show me I am so happy you posted this video. Thank you for this!
dear Sally, I cannot express enough thanks for your video. I was lost trying to work on it , and thanks to you I can understand it at last, and more important FEEL it. You are so sensible and talented, generous also . Thanks again
+hubification Hello, and thank you for your wonderful words! I'm so happy to hear that the lesson helped you in not only understanding the piece, but in accessing the fervid emotions as well. My very best wishes to you!
What an amazing video! As a blind pianist trying to learn this piece, the breakdown has been so so helpful! Thank you
Hello Kevin, thank you for your beautiful and moving words! It is especially meaningful to hear that the breakdown has been so helpful! You are an inspiration for me and I'm sure for many other readers as well. 🙏 With very best wishes to you and with your playing! 🎶

+Ayse Ersan Thank you, Ayse, for letting me know the lesson is helping you!
Best wishes to you in your mastering of this magnificent Schumann Intermezzo!
Thanks!
Dear Sally, I have known and loved this heavenly piece for a long time and as a hobby pianist with intermediate level I found it too difficult for my level...until I watched your tutorial!! With your structured and clear analysis and the charts on your website, I have started practicing this piece and pretty sure that it will work out! Thanks again and keep up the great work :) Best regards from Germany, Abdalla
Dear Abdalla, thank you for your wonderful responses to this lesson and the chart! Your words are music to my ears! I am thrilled that you now have your chart music sheets to work from and that you are finding them helpful. I loved making this chart because it made such a difference for me and my students in learning, understanding, and memorizing the piece. I am sure you will play it beautifully and with much feeling and confidence! With very best wishes to you! 🌠
I'm fascinated by those charts you create...
Hi Suzanne, I'm glad to hear this. The charts have really been helpful for me and for my students to more easily learn and track the music!
Best wishes to you.
A beautiful and fascinating revelation of this piece. Thank you, Sally!
You hit that F major solution soo goood at the beggining it touched my soul
Hello Filip, thank you for your meaningful words. I know the F Major resolution you are talking about. This measure in the very low register of the piano fills my being with great stillness. It is a brief repose to catch our breath before the next section of driving relentlessness resumes. Thank you for your insightful comment, and best wishes to you.
Don't you think this could be thought of as a joyful and light reminiscence of Beethoven's moonlight sonata ? Thanks for sharing this magnificent moment.
I do hear similarities to the Moonlight Sonata; three-part writing, melody in the soprano, an interior voice in broken triads, and a foundational bass line that gives support & grandeur. Both works are such powerful and personal statements. Thanks for your comments!
...and let's not forget to mention those fabulous dissonances in both pieces!!!
Your play IS my fave for this Schumann's pièce.Too it went to my feeling ,Heart ...bravo! Which piano IS this a bosendorfer ?,i used to play this in 1980 on my grand Pleyel #3 from 1913 ...thancks for your comments over this masterpiece...
I CANNOT THINK OF A MORE HEART-STIRRING PIECE OF MUSIC FOR ITS
LENGTH THAN THIS MASTERPIECE BY ROBERT SCHUMANN.
AS PROFESSORESSA CHRISTIAN MENTIONED IN HER TUTORIAL ON THIS PIECE, INSPIRED BY ROBERT'S LOVE FOR HIS WIFE CLARA, CLARA SCHUMANN WROTE IN TURN ABOUT MUSIC: "ART, WHAT A BEAUTIFUL GIFT
INDEED. WHAT IS MORE BEAUTIFUL THAN TO CLOTHE ONE'S FEELINGS IN SOUND."
I JUST RE-MEMORIZED A POEM BY WILLIAM ERNEST HENLEY, (WHICH I REDACTED), TITLED: "SOME LATE LARK SINGING." THE WAY THIS INTERMEZZO SINGS, AND WITH ITS SERIOUS, SERENE AND MELANCHOLIC ATMOSPHERE, IT IS A FITTING PIECE OF MUSIC TO PLACE WITH
THIS POEM BY HENLEY, PARTICULARLY BECAUSE OF HOW SIMILARLY EMOTIONALLY
PULLING THEY BOTH ARE AT THE END.
"YOU WILL BE FOREVER
ALTERED HAVING THIS MUSIC IN YOUR HEART"
PROFESSORESSA CHRISTIAN EMPHASIZED AT THE CONCLUSION OF THE TUTORIAL. I TRUST
ALL WHO READ THIS POEM SHALL BE SIMILARY BLESSED.
"A LATE LARK TWITTERS FROM THE QUIET SKIES.
AND FROM THE WEST, WHERE THE RECEDING SUN, HIS DAY'S WORK ENDED, LINGERS IN CONTENT, THERE FALLS UPON THE OLD GRAY CITY AN INFLUENCE LUMINOUS AND SERENE, A SHINING PEACE. AND THE LARK SINGS ON.
FROM YON RUSTIC CHIMNEYS SMOKE ASCENDS IN A ROSY-GOLDEN HAZE, CATHEDRAL SPIRES GLISTEN AND ARE CHANGED, AND ALL ACROSS THE RESPLENDENT, VERDANT,
STREAM-FED VALLEY SHADOWS RISE, AND LAMPS ARE LIT, AS THE EBBING SUN, CLOSING HIS BENEDICTION, SOLEMNLY SINKS AWAY,
USHERING IN THE DARKENING SKIES OF DUSK, THAT THRILL WITH A SENSE OF THE IMPENDING TRIUMPHANT, WONDROUS NIGHT. NIGHT! WITH HER TRAIN OF HEAVENLY INCANDESCENT STARS AND HER BENEVOLENT GIFT OF LIFE-SUSTAINING SLEEP.
AND THE LARK SINGS ON.
SO BE MY PASSING. WITH MY TASKS ACCOMPLISHED AND MY DAYS WORK DONE,LET ME BE GATHERED TO THE QUIET WEST, MIDST A CLOUD-RIFTED SUNSET
RAPTUROUS AND SERENE. AND WHEN THE NIGHT GROWS DARK AND MY LAST BREATH DIES AWAY, YET STILL, DEEP
WITHIN MY GRATEFUL
HEART, SOME LATE LARK
SINGING.
THE EXPERIENCE OF WATCHING YOUR TUTORIAL ALONG WITH MY UNABASHED LOVE FOR THIS PROFOUND PIECE OF MUSIC REINFORCES MY FEELING OF HOW IF I WERE A PIANIST IT WOULD BE MY FAVORITE FINAL ENCORE PIECE. BUT MUCH MORE THAN THAT, IT DAWNED ON ME
THAT AS FINE AS ALL OF THE OTHER MOVEMENTS ARE IN THEIR OWN WAY, THE EMOTIONAL IMPACT
OF THE INTERMEZZO IS NONPAREIL. SO MUCH SO THAT, IF I WERE A PIANIST, I WOULD SHIFT THE INTERMEZZO TO THE FINALE, WITH IT BEING WRITTEN IN THE PROGRAM AND EVEN BEING ANNONCED FROM THE STAGE THE REASONS, I.E., THAT WE WOULD NOT HAVE THIS PIECE WERE IT NOT FOR ROBERT'S LOVE FOR CLARA. ALONG WITH THE EMOTIONAL WEIGHT OF THE PIECE, IT WOULD HAVE MUCH MORE IMPACT BEING PLAYED AT THE CONCLUSION, RATHER THAN IT BEING POSITIONED WHERE SCHUMANN PLACED IT. THE MOVEMENT FOLLOWING THE INTERMEZZO CHANGES IN MOOD AND TEMPO SO SEVERELY THAT THE INTERMEZZO GETS LOST, WHERAS IF IT APPEARED AT THE END, THE EFFECT WOULD BE STUNNING, AND LINGER ON AS THE AUDIENCE FILED OUT OF THE VENUE. THE EFFECT WOULD LAST FOR HOURS FOR SCHUMMAN FANS, TO BE SURE, AND "A FOREVER HEART-ALTERING RECITAL EXPERIENCE" (TO KIND OF EXPAND ON WHAT YOU SAID), FOR MANY PATRONS. I GET CHILLS JUST THINKING ABOUT IT.🥶
PERHAPS A PIANIST MAY TRY THIS SOME DAY. OF COURSE WHAT WE WOULD GET IS THE EFFECT OF THE ENDING OF TCHAIKOVSKY'S 6TH SYMPHONY, SCHUBERT'S UNFINISHED SYMPHONY, ET. AL. IT WOULD BE DELIGHTFUL IF A CONTESTANT AT A MAJOR PIANO COMPETITION MADE THE SWITCH AFTER AN ANNOUNCEMENT FROM THE STAGE.
IN CONCLUSION, WHAT IF RACHMANINOFF HAD COMPOSED A SET OF "VARIATIONS ON THE INTERMEZZO
FROM FANTASY PIECES OF VIENNA."😃 🌠✨💥

Vetle Nærø For the sheets in their original format, go to IMSLP/Petrucci Music.
Good morning ! Did you have the tutorial this , because a don't understing very well the english so please sorry my english , thankyou very much !
op?
Opus 26, No. 4
Beautiful! What is the level of this piece?
Hello Sandra, thank you for your kind words! I would say that this is an early advanced level piece. Best wishes to you, and with your playing!
She obviously knows music theory very well, but if I had to break it out into sections and printouts the way she does, I would end up being sick of the piece; it just ends up becoming a pedantic exercise. What's wrong with just making handwritten notes into the score?
But the Op. 26 is tough...I gave up trying to play it after hearing de Larrocha's live Carnegie Hall performance, which was so good that I doubt it could ever be matched by anyone.
