These a truly special videos. Listening to Schumann’s work on the actual piano that some of this music might have been composed on is like being in a time machine to a very important musical past. Thank you for making these videos.
Thank you for listening to her music
@@TiffanyPoonpianistI have a slight impression that the piano is out of tune ,it was fine
Repent and trust in Jesus. He's the only way. We deserve Hell because we've sinned. Lied, lusted stolen, etc. But God sent his son to die on the cross and rise out of the grave. We can receive forgiveness from Jesus. Repent and put your trust in him.
John 3:16
Romans 3:23❤😊❤❤😊
Clara Schumann's composition output stopped because of her struggle for Robert, for their seven children and for her most impressive career as a concert pianist to keep up the family after Robert's early death. Today we still can appreciate the beautiful pieces she wrote as a girl and a young woman. Your intuitional and artistic way of getting into the composer's mind and your fantastic playing help us to do that.
Clara schuman is realy somthing different, I never listen to this but I'm actually quite surprised, love it.
Thanks to you Schumann is growing on me.
You are so damn talented it almost discourages me from becoming a pianist. The colors you bring into your playing and the control in your playing is just spectacular. You know exactly what to bring out in your playing, what the composers were thinking in each measure, and which emotions to bring out where and when. I geniuenly think you are one of the best of this generation
I was listening to the 3rd movement of her piano concerto when the notification appeared, this is definitely a treat!!
Seems like you had a great encore!
I feel transported to a new level after seeing you first experience Clara's piano in your previous video, and now seeing & hearing this beautiful nocturne from it's Mother's own "voice" 💞🎶🎹🎶💞
Thank you Tiffany .
Beautiful
Clara Schumann is so underrated
@TiffanyPoon beautifully played
The sound of the piano express a special feeling
True... Thanks!
two years ago you introduced me to clara through this piece and i'm forever grateful. i learned it immediately after listening to your recording and to this day remains one of my favorite pieces i've played. holds a very special place in my heart :)
Ohhh 🥺🙏❤️🎶
What structure have designed Clara in that piece? What's the harmony behind it? If you really appreciate this piece, you can easily answer this sort of questions.
Otherwise you're just a dilettante.
@@JP-ku5hw I'm surprised by such cynicism and bitterness. It is totally uncalled for when someone is genuinely expressing their subjective appreciation. Furthermore, you should take a closer look into philosophy of aesthetics in order to better understand what type of position you are claiming to hold, and how that is not the only valid perspective. Appreciation of art, explanation of art, creation of art...all these concepts are inseparable from ontological, epistemological, and existential questions of the world that require vigorous analysis. Delving into them would probably enable you to become a bit more humble and generous towards others (and towards yourself).
@@SE013 Well, I'm afraid you got the wrong end of the stick. I'm just claiming that the musical theory and the structure of a piece are connected in some sense. Of course you can enjoy a piece without those factors, but you'll deeply understand a piece when you identify this sort of details).
But that's true. I didn't read a degree in philosophy at University and my questions were about a certain MUSICAL aspect (rhythm, harmony, structure...), not about philosophical and subjective problems..
@@JP-ku5hw Are you really think someone will answer this question? When a person says how much he like something, and then you just randomly say: If you can't answer this question you don't apprechiate it. It's senseless.
Please, as Tiffany everytime says, be kind. Seems like many people are not kind to you, but you shouldn't be the same to other people.
I'm sure her spirit would be proud of your playing her work on her very own piano..... Truly beautiful.... The piano being old just gives that unique experience of sound and emotion..... Thank you.
Thank you, I tried my best...though could be better
Once again, beautiful, and very wise words indeed.
I fell in love with this piece just from the little bit you played in your last vlog, it was my first time hearing it. So afterwards, I listened to a few interpretations including yours from 2019 because I wanted to listen to the full piece. However, I felt like something was missing. This video is that missing piece, it is beautiful. Thank you so much.
Fantastic, God blessed this.
My favorite piece of hers!
Thank you!!
Thank you for sharing all the new music and for playing it for us. It means a lot to me.
You are always an inspiration for me. ❤️❤️
DAYUMMM the self reflection on the end is so GUUUD. i love it
Great comments at the end - when we recognize the value of others - then we ourselves start to grow.
Truly wonderful!! And wow that piano!
I stopped what I was doing just to watch this because I love this nocturne so much and discovered it to thanks to you darling. Thank you so much for this beautiful music video
Wonderful!!!
Congratulations on hitting 300k! 🥳
congratulations on 300k subs! much deserved
Really beautiful ❤🦋
Thank you for a wonderful morning wake up to Clara Schumman =v=
superb!
Amazing video, Tiffany 😊
Wow! Absolutely amazing, Tiffany! What a special experience it must be to play this piece on a piano Clara herself once owned. I really enjoyed your reflection towards to end of the video; I think your words speak to the kind of musician you are. To be able to acknowledge some of the misgivings you had about Clara's nocturnes in comparison to Chopin's, and then to be able to learn, grow, and perform them at this high of a level is a testament to not only your musicianship, but to the kind of person you are.
As a clarinetist, I do not get to perform a lot of works by either of the Schumanns. However, through my additional piano studies, I've begun to understand them more and appreciate the genius of their music. I hope to keep learning and growing, just like you! :)
🙏🤗💪🎶
Have you learned fantasiestucke? Cellists love to steal that piece haha 😛, but it’s originally for clarinet!
Wow. I hadn't seen any of your videos in a while, Tiffany, and this level of introspection and growth from you, as a concluding commentary, is honest and touching. On another channel, one of my former teaching tools, I had subscribed to you since you were a child, and I liked seeing that you had carried your channel forward as an adult. Right now, I see a new growth and maturity in your thought process and analysis that's moved your process forward; please continue this.
Thank you for sharing her music to us.
What a beautiful piece and a beautiful performance. Thank you for this.
This Stein piano sounds so beautiful, i read a while ago that Beethoven once declined a Stein piano because his gentle singing tone didnt allow him play with his own voice, altough he tought it was an isntrument of the highest quality. This videos made me understand more about my two favorite composers Schumann and Beethoven, thank you.
this is the best video on youtube probably
Working on new lyrics came over here found you I am now relaxing. The great Tiffany thank you.
Really good.
That was sublime, thank you Tiffany
克拉拉這麼偉大的女性，流傳後世的音樂竟是這麼的不普及。克拉拉的曲子實在很好聽，謝謝 Tiffany。
Your thoughts after this beautiful interpretation are so modest and well put!
Thank you for sharing:)
Thank you for reading!
Oh my! 1:36 with that little flurry of notes is just breathtaking!
Beautiful playing as always, the end text is quite philosophical and partly inspiring. And congrats on 300k!
That piano sounds absolutely ghostly omg. Love it.
I really hoped you would record this particular piece in this particular piano 🤍 thank you for sharing Clara's music
😊🎶
Beautiful. Thank you ☺️
Thank you Tiffany, I can tell you had to work at this piece on this piano to achieve this performance. You might seem very young to an oldie, but I think Clara was a lot younger when she wrote this nocturne. It is wonderful the piano has been kept in a good condition, to give a fascinating insight into how it would have sounded at the time. You are providing a service to music.
Congratulations on reaching 300k Tiffany, you have earned it. Thanks for brightening everyones days with your friendly and positive nature. Greetings from Germany! I hope to visit one of your concerts one day.
This is an honour to hear
CONGRATULATIONS on 300k subs and this is simply Divine thank you
Beautiful performen
Beautiful piece and beautifully played 👏
YES FINALLY, I NEEDED THIS, A SECOND PERFORMANCE!
OMG I MUST LEARN THIS PIECE IT IS DIVINE AND HOLY!
Wow, I didn't realize how much better a modern piano sounds compared to a 200-year-old one. You definitely brought out the best this saloon-sounding piano had to offer.
The tuning is a little off, that is all.
@@stewartkingsley It's a little more than bad tuning. Listen carefully. Joplin would sound perfect on this antique.
I believe the tuning of this piano is likely different than the piano we are used to today. 100 years ago they tuned A to 432hZ and nowadays A is tuned to 440hZ, a slight but noticeable difference. I agree the piano definitely seems a tad out of tune though
I'm still amazed at the wonderful condition this instrument is in.
When music is your soul and passion. Even if you dont know how to play piano. There's a deep urge that you should play piano or music it brings you to different places that you didn't visit. For my instance I don't know how to play piano but I sing and that is my passion. Even my ex wanted me to sing for here everyday. If I only knew how to play piano. That's a great combination.
Some say Tiffany will notice your comments. I will take my chance. 😊
I read all... 😉
300K SUBS!!! yippee! Amazing playing as always :)
Wow! This is so lovely ❤️❤️ I like much it's pureness. And very important and inspiring what you write at the end.
Very beautiful playing👍✅
❤️❤️❤️
I loved reading what you wrote in the end. I actually find this nocturne so unique and uncomparable to others. It has this cold evening dew feel to it. Reminiscent of things to come in the future and being okay with things of the past. It’s also written in a unique style so ahead of her time and sounds like late romantics period… that gives it this feminine unique quality soft and bossy woman like who is in love and know what she wants 😍
Thank you Tiffany! Was Clara only 16 when she wrote this?
Yes
The dynamics you achieve are very impressive, regarding the tiny margins on that piano you talked about in your vlog. Sounds great. :)
Long time no see❤
Tiffany wonderful capturing the mood .I hate to be a begger but I would love to you play Clara Schumann's Variations on a Theme.
2:05 this always gives me visions of a medieval scene where I see myself as a Knight in Armour riding a horse
amazing!
never clicked so fast in my life
😃🙏❤️
What a privilege Tiffany!
Music to make grown men cry.
Beautiful! You have made a huge progress since the last time you played this in Moritzburg, and that one already was lovely. Best wishes for your further endeavor! 🤗
...I wrote this before reading your after thoughts. By the way, is the essay you mention available online?

너무 좋다
Something special in this piece. Is the first motive Clara theme Schumann frequently quoted. The descending fifth? I will learn this piece and thanks for the clear fingering :)
I just realized that the beginning theme of this Nocturne is almost the same as in Robert Schumann’s novelette No.8 (in the Stimme aus der Ferne section in mid-piece) I am sensing dedication of one composer to another here?
Yes, indeed, Robert makes a quotation of this nocturne in the Novelette n°8 :-)
PRECISAMOS CONHECER AS MÚSICAS DA CLARA SCHUMANN
Wow beautiful playing as always, also I’m working on schumanns intermezzo op26 no4 it’s a beautiful piece as well👍
You're so comfortable there. 😊
Good touch…..fun to compare & contrast….another fun one to compare & contrast….Chopin Polonaise with Scriabin singular Polonaise 🙂😂
Love the way you adapted your playing to this venerable old instument.
I love the beautiful delicacy of some of her music here - quite original. It might not have the stucture of Chopin or Bach and I might like to add a couple of notes here or there which I never would with the other two, but I love playing this youthful and soulful piece. As you say, it is important to have the humility to play it the way she wrote it, and try to understand her ideas. She was a very gifted composer in my opinion...
Hi Tiffany, are you visiting the Schumann house in Leipzig as well? Didn't know they also lived in Zwickau!
Hey, I've been watching for a while and maybe I missed it, but I don't think you've played arabesque no 1 or 2? Is there a reason or have you just simply not published a video of you playing it? Regardless, I really like your playing and would be so happy to hear your take on the piece. Thank you.
it sounds like a mix between a harpsichord and a piano
What a sensitive piano!
Did you ever make performances in Italy?
I'd be really interested to join :)
This piece has so much personality! You are revealing a treasure.
But still I'm wondering, is it technically possible to improve the tuning and resonances a bit, or is it just the limit because of its age?
(I am a bloody amateur, but my aunt had an old piano that even sounded a little bit similar, but it could not keep pitch any more.)
wonderful. Klara robert Frederick Erick together and deeply
Hi Tiffany
Tiffany,I don't know whether you had practiced Clara Schumann Prelude and Fugue(Op 16) or not,but if you can play op 16 on this piano,I will appreciate about this.
Your performance made me think. This sort of piece is sometimes predictable and even conventional, but I didn’t pay so much attention to these small details, because you’ve performed it extremely well).
Waarom is de piano zo vreselijk ontstemd dwz niet vooraf gestemd??
G.P, thank you VERY much for asking. Tiffany, was the technical tuning different when this piano was new--is the piano out of tune to sensitive modern ears--or is it just out of tune?
tiffany, when will you write your own stuff?
Yes, it's very important to take context into account when trying to understand a composer's music... Your playing is getting more and more mature every day, it seems the pandemic accelerated the process. I have to say that I like the simplicity of this nocturne. I think it sounds much better on a modern piano. interesting video, performance...
So clever. My 💜 melt💦😏😈
I wonder if they sound the same 200 years ago?
First 💗
Can someone tune the piano :D
Repent and trust in Jesus. We deserve Hell for our sin. Lying, lusting, etc, but God sent his son Jesus to die on the cross and ride from the grave to free us from sin. If you repent and trust in him youll be saved.
Romans 3:23
John 3:16❤❤
Why does it seem like people don’t realize that there are two Schumanns: husband and wife.
