One of the most difficult piano pieces by one of the most difficult piano composers, taken from one of the most difficult violin pieces, taken by one of the most difficult violin composers.
@mauriii Yes, this piece you told me is worse. But you can't say that La campanella is easy. But besides Liszt, there is Chopin too that it's hell, like "torrent" or "black keys" just as two examples.
A person I know had to take a full month pause after practicing and playing this piece even faster than in this video. He stretched his hand too much and his muscles got damaged.
@@quel2324 okay I see I'm wrong, but you too. 1-Liszt composed the grandes etudes BEFORE the transcendentals, as the transcendentals are revisions of the grandes etudes. 2-this is not a transcendental, and it's not a grande etude. This is the paganini etude no.3, as it's based on paganini's second violin concerto
@@bartoldo5898 Wait, there's a difference? I was making a joke, sort of. I have the sort of perfect pitch that makes my head assign a key to a song somewhat automatically. My head always grouped this particular piece in Ab minor rather than G#, and that would make that note an Eb. I assumed this was because of a small bias in my subconscious: my favorite song, Emperor's New Clothes by Panic! at the Disco, is in Eb minor. My head likes that note. But you're telling me there is an actual difference?
Im actually impressed to everyone who can play this monstrosity! La Campanella by Paganini was the real song. It was played on the violin but half the song included the piano too. Once Lizst found this monstrosity, he wanted to recreate it on the piano. So he firstly learned who to play it on the piano, next changed a few notes, then transposed it down to G# minor, and lastly, made the left hand. Even though many cant play this, I still pay respects to all pianists around the world.
Oh yes! Eddy's La Campanella is exquisite. Though they are having a lot on their plate, Brett's 2 mil Tchaikovsky drop and the upcoming 2020 tour. Will they even have a chance to play the piece?
I love the dynamic of this piece. One moment, the left is the bass and rhythm and the right is the melody, the next they're both the melody or bass, then again they change, but the left becomes the melody and the right becomes the rhythm. I've always loved it when songs shift in tone like that
2:08 I like how Raf performed this trill with the 2 notes ONE semitone apart instead of 2 semitones apart. It’s an excursion from the usual people I’ve heard La Campanella and it really reinforces that childlike, yet psychedelic and threatening Lisztomorphic feeling that the piece has.
I’m always left baffled after hearing this and watching the notes and realizing someone can move there hand this fast🤯 great piece of music but I play piano as a hobby so I’m never gonna undertake the process of learning this Leviathan of a piece. 🔥👀
The fastest parts, they cannot. Many claim to, but i always see them slow down when they get there. Two possibilities, then exist: 1) Liszt also slowed down a little at those moments. 2) Far more likely, he was one of a kind.
I asked my dad if I could play this, he told me "without any doubt!". Then I ask my piano teacher, and she said this song is one of the hardest songs ever... I was so sad 🤣 Edit : Guys, I'm French, I'm not good in English and I wasn't aware that "song" and "piece" aren't the same thing... Please be comprehensive 😒
I'm not going to press read more until after I post this comment. You'll probably say something predictable, that you still can't play it. Hahaha, subversion of expectations amirite? Not really. I'm expecting this. I'll click "Read more" now.
You might as well try. I’m trying as well just for fun. Turn the playback speed down to 0.25, separate the song into parts, and learn both hands separate. Hope you do try!
It might be hard at first but ones you get it like you are comfortable at playing this song, you can play it. I was just like you thinking “Man i will never play this song” but ones you practice hard enough you can actually play the song. At the end though when you already know how to play the song it begins kinda boring and youll never know people are amazed...
