@@ForeverFall Yes, her brother is Gil Shaham. He's a wonderful violinist. He performs my favorite recording of Vivaldi's Four Seasons with the Orpheus Chamber Orchestra.
Thank you so very much for such an informative video. I used your stretches before my practise and my fingers absolutely loved them! The trill practise is also extremely beneficial. Thank you again.
I knew piano is hard but What in the world of holy hell was this . Stretching fingerings excersizing articulatings sluring pedaling sensing . Did mozart guy did all this plus knee pedal ? Man i respect all piano players but from now on i respect yall a lot more
No don't worry it's only modern piano stuff, because we are so many and the level is so high now that we have to do whole bunch of extra stuff to be competitive in any way
@@amedeofabris1268 hehe thats true that's true (I wonder if old piano guys had competition like nowadays they altogether might come up with lot of old school ish style music) what a world
I got the advice to also stretch between fingers 2-3-4-5, but of course with ease. Am 78 years old. I think these stretches help me avoid "Karpal Tunnel Syndrome". Hand and wrist stretches can help prevent or reduce symptoms of carpal tunnel syndrome by improving flexibility, reducing tension in the muscles and tendons around the wrist, and keeping the carpal tunnel more open.
Best point: If you can imagine it, you can find a way to produce it. Or, more pointedly, if you aren’t conceiving of it, it will never happen! This is true of all instruments - and it is true of conductors as well.
"Don't wait 'til your 30's." Me in my 30's: 👀 These are great. This made me aware of some stiffness in some of my playing, especially during trills. I've been using the Hanon #46 for Trill training, but the Brahms looks like a fun variation.
Orli: both my instructors were Juilliard Doctorates (long ago!). I am beginning the Mozart Concerto No. 5. Any suggestions on how to work it? I also enjoy the prodigy Elisey Mysin and hope he will give this Concerto a go 🎹🍂
Tonebase has provided much entertainment and information. As an amateur who plays mainly Mozart and Hadyn sonatas, piano trios and some Beethoven violin/cello piano sonatas - such a useless lesson. I might improve even if only I notice. Enjoy Orli Shaham's presentation and big fan of both brother and sister.
Thanks Orli. I've waited until I was almost 70, 😉 but it does work! (I do know the legato-- staccato exercises) These articulation hints are marvelous. No one should ever play like Glen Gould recorded--yuk. Thanks again.
Less finger tension, more from the wrist. We're always trying to lessen finger tension, and direct things from the torso, with strong but flexible and relaxed arms (and shoulders!), as much as possible...we want to develop lots of finger dexterity, but the strength comes down through the arms.
She communicates well, but certainly doesn’t have the Mozart sound I want. I don’t know if it’s the method of recording, her or both, but it’s a very brittle dry ugly tone. No warmth or halo effect that Barenboim and Perahia have. Weird that she’s apparently known for her Mozart playing, or is she?? I’ve never heard of her.
Some good tips, but horrific playing...blunt tones, no shapes, taking time anywhere at any time, which becomes unstructured and pretentious, how could she be on the piano faculty of the Juilliard?!
Horrid. No need for such potentially injurious stretches. Such action is never a prerequisite for natural virtuosic playing. And the Juilliard School faculty plug seems a bit arrogant and unnecessary.
If done very gently she has given wise words, especially for small hand pianists. This should be done with care, injuries could happen if any tension passes from a “good feeling” stretch to a “tired” feeling.
Tonebase is wonderful - and so is Orli. (I am her brother's fan too.)
is her brother Gil Shaham, by any chance?

@@hoot2416 oh wow, I've heard him live, didn't know he has a pianist sister.
Her playing is so beautiful!

Greatest advice I had ever got
Quite fascinating! Thank you.
you are awesome
Great class!!! Thank you so much...

Can't tell if you are trying to say you enjoyed this lesson or you found it lacking and didn't learn much
@@danielliang9266 They probably meant "useful" and got autocorrected?
You are in no way being presumptuous by giving advice on how to play Mozart. You play great. Mozart is your familiar spirit...😄

Thanks again.
You are Gil Shaham's sister ? I bought one of his CD's back in the 2000s
Rip Mozart

“The non-brown”???? What a pitiful, racist remark. Remove your race-filter and show us if you have a brain? Certainly no character.
"We all start with 3-1 as our trill"... wut?

A nice sound center of rotation - very comfortable. Why is this controversial? What do you mean whuuuuut?
Wow, can you be my teacher, please?!

Thank you for the wonderful advice! But please, for everyone's sake, don't end the video before the cadence! 😒
Wasn't there a pianist who would always stretch in between her fingers? Like fidgeting with a purpose
O thing Alicia De Larrocha
It is interesting how her recordings with her brother are among the best of the bestest best and her solos are just average. (Mozart only)
Resume:
Nice playing.
Completely useless stretching exercises.
Schumann famously tried to stretch his 5 finger.
4th
The stretching is nonsense and I’m convinced whatever benefit is all in her head
wow ... hills and valleys !!! i'm soooooo impressed ... NOT
Huh?

You're great but there was too much blah blah than playing. 🙂❤
