Take 1870 was priceless! I have trouble with the double hand arpeggios up and down the keyboard. Love your videos and your delightful personality. Your love of music always shines through. Best.
I love the fluttering sound that level 5 gives. I remember when you first showed it in one of your previous videos, I couldn’t stop listening to it. It puts me in a entranced mood that no other piece or patter has ever done
Level 10 being a mix of Liszt's texture and chords which have more 'contemporary' and less 'romanticism' colour sounds absolutely fantastic, seems like almost no one explores this sort of thing, although it sounds like a mix of everything that's great about classical and more contemporary style! Bravo Nahre ❤
I have small hands so the maximum i can stretch is to the 9th key. As a result arpeggio practice used to irk me. Now I'm motivated to keep practicing until I'm fluid. Hopefully like you one day ❤
Fantastic video, would love to see more 13 Level videos from you. The thing that's great is you're explaining specifically what's going on at each level, referencing classical pieces, but applying it to a more simplified chord progression which makes the learning aspect of it much easier to digest. Bravo!!!
Hello, i'm a pianist and piano-teacher, big fan of your channel and i ESPECIALLY enjoy anything you post on piano- playing and - technique. Thank you! 🙂
You do a great job. It helps that you have a nice voice and the kind of diction that never tires the ear, on the contrary. Keep up the great work. Your calm and inviting demeanor is also great, and you don't come off fake and extra-friendly - which is annoying; you just keep it normal with an overall good vibe. I love it.
Nahre, you creativity and musicality know no bounds! I love listening to even your exercises! My favourite channel of all time and I’m still smiling after the video has stopped! 🙂
I find that level 4 and 6 are my favorite and most achievable techniques, now that I know what they're actually called, I can learn them much easier Thanks Nahre :D
Level 10 reminded me of Ravel's Une barque sur l'ocean ❤ arpeggios with different rhythmic patterns that need to sound consistent while emulating sea waves 🌊
Wow, today I sought out Nahre's channel bc i was perplexed by the "too low" note in the score of Une barque. Google tells me the first bosendorfer with extra bass notes was built 1909, but that's 3-4 yrs after miroirs.
Working on that Chopin op 10 no.1 seriously these days. I found that it is the best piece for exploring relaxation of the hand, which is imperative to performing it at high speed. Any unnecessary tension and you'll wave goodbye to your wrists/tendons after a few runs.
You'll probably never read this but I just wanted to say you are INCREDIBLE. To say the least. Thanks for the awesome tips and lessons. A most grateful fan...
Thanks Nahre! This is just so awesome!! While playing arpeggios with long stretches, it is best to bring the hand to a relaxed position after the notes are played. Something I think is helpful while playing the difficult variations. Examples 0:53 Level 1 1:09 Level 2 1:35 Level 3 1:47 Level 4 2:44 Level 5 3:06 Level 6 4:19 Level 7a 4:28 Level 7b 5:47 Level 8a 6:00 Level 8b 6:19 Level 9 6:46 Level 10 (My favorite!) 7:18 Level 11 8:16 Level 12 9:25 Level 13 - This reminds me of Amédée Méreaux Etudes.
Sometimes, I manage to convince myself my piano technic is not so crappy, and then I watch your video and feel again I play so badly! I always hesitate before watching your video to preserve my motivation. But at the same time, you are like a guide to show me, maybe not what is atteinable for me, but what path I should take to go on improving. You present her very beautiful patterns. I'll try to integrate some of them in my playing style. Thank you so much!
Be kind to self - the fact that you are making music this way is beautiful and is contributing something in your own life and the lives of the people around you.
Hi Lady Nahre. Thank you very much for sharing your wealth of knowledge and breaking it down in soluble portions that even a beginner can understand. You are truly amazing and awe inspiring indeed and in deed!
You have inspired me to seek help from people who understand music software for composing, arranging, studio audio,...and as you very humbly do, so have I...and am finding kind and helpful people, who are willing to teach what they know I was abroad and I returned to Italy for a short time .... I take the scores of Bach's Urtext with me ... and I take them with me. Start over. Thanks!!!!!!!!
I have studied (listened lol) the Godowski Etudes as well as the Alkan Etudes, and they seem impossible. But after hearing Hamelin nail them, I am convinced he is an extraterrestrial. I think the Chopin Etudes hit the sweet spot of perfecting a technical challenge while reachable to aspiring concert pianists. And they remain beautiful to listen to as well. Liszt took it even further well into the realm of the technical demands a modern concert pianist needs to overcome.
It was slightly counterintuitive to hear such a large space while seeing a manifestly small one. The great thing about the pro version of the BBC piano is that you can dial in exactly how much room you want. Watch Paul Thomason’s walkthrough to see how many shades of gold that mine is capable of producing.
6:00 I do believe Liszt's Un Sospiro uses this (although there is a melody being played in the LH at the same time) Incidentally that section of Un Sospiro is probably the single most beautiful piece of music that has ever been created in the history of the human race imo
I just watched your WIRED video on the 16 levels of complexity for playing the Happy birthday song. Wow! The adding of beats and changing its style really inspired me!
I’m currently studying Op 10 no. 1, it really takes a lot of practice to play those cascading up and down arpeggios really well at quick tempo. Patience, patience, patience is all I can say!
Very clean play ! congrants! Level 14 arpegios Liszt's Transcendetal study No2 (2nd edition) and Level 15 Liszt's Transcendetal study No2 (Douze etudes 1st edition)
I guess that level of difficulty also depends a lot on the size of one's hands. It seems to me that's quite important for arpeggios. Thank you for the video and I wish you all the best!
That was fascinating for making sense of classical compositions, which I, as a non-musician, always thought of as a semi-arbitrary collection of notes. At least now I can recognize some of the patterns of arpeggios if I see sheet music. As for playing, I'm afraid I'll need a level before level 1.
I'm not a piano player, but I still enjoy watching this type of video to give me ideas on how to practice harmonica. There are some interesting bits in here that I think would transfer over.
Thank you for the advice! I think I want to try and learn Beethoven’s piece mentioned in the fourth level. Arpeggios continue to be quite difficult for me, and I think this would be an excellent way to improve, even if only slowly :)
Ugh, as a pianist and after watching Nahre play her arpeggios so well, I think I'm gonna spend some time on them again... XD
She’s an amazing pianist!
Me too !
I was about to say the same thing lol. I love scales but never practice arpeggios. I think I will start practicing them after watching this.
Ugh? what new nonsense is this I'm gonna have to read everywhere
@@phutureproof it's... just a word
"Difficulty level does not correlate to how good the music sounds." You have no idea how much I needed to hear that. 🤣 Great tutorial. Thanks.
All I have to say: You are a genius!
Take 1870 was priceless! I have trouble with the double hand arpeggios up and down the keyboard. Love your videos and your delightful personality. Your love of music always shines through. Best.
Godowsky’s birth-year (1870) 😂 and thank you…!! 🙏🏻
@@NahreSolOoh, nice Easter egg! Impressed if you’ve gone very far down the Chopin/Godowsky trail…
As someone who grew frustrated with piano because it was hard, I wish I stuck with it.
Nahre makes piano sound absolutely beautiful.
The Level 10 piece - Triple Layer Arpeggios - really melted me. So beautiful.
Such an awesome video
Beautiful playing. Educational video. I have 30+ years using keyboard instruments and I struggle with Level 2. 🙂
because level 2is in fact harder than some of what is on higher levels here, not exactly accurate levels ı'd say, but each to their own
Level 2 ain't that hard
Level 14 is easy!
I love the fluttering sound that level 5 gives. I remember when you first showed it in one of your previous videos, I couldn’t stop listening to it. It puts me in a entranced mood that no other piece or patter has ever done
Muy buemnissimno gracias and chile ,Carlos ❤
Thank You, Nahre....Superb, btw....

Reminds me of lubomyr melnyk (illirion, beyond romance) or ravel
I have small hands so the maximum i can stretch is to the 9th key. As a result arpeggio practice used to irk me. Now I'm motivated to keep practicing until I'm fluid. Hopefully like you one day ❤

Always love your videos ❤️🔥
I’ve only watched 2 or 3 videos. I love you already.

Spitfire audio is my favourite library maker. I am so glad they are sponsoring you. You, a world class pianist. I admire you so much.
I love this channel so much. You are part of what redeems the internet. 🙏❤️
Thank you Nahre here from Aalborg Danmark it helps a lot God bless I'm pianist in Aalborg privilegium churches and institution

This tutorial is just pure gold. Grazie maestra!
I'm a guitar player but big fan of your videos Nahre, keep up the great work!
Nahre, you creativity and musicality know no bounds! I love listening to even your exercises! My favourite channel of all time and I’m still smiling after the video has stopped! 🙂
I love the idea of Level 13. That’s another universe 😂
The universe of Liszt and Rachmaninoff.
I find that level 4 and 6 are my favorite and most achievable techniques, now that I know what they're actually called, I can learn them much easier

As ever, a marvellous combination of sound sense/advice and brilliant creative originality.
that sound when you change levels was so beautiful
also good composing
Thanks Nahre! This is just so awesome!!

6:46 Level 10 (My favorite!)
7:18 Level 11
8:16 Level 12
9:25 Level 13 - This reminds me of Amédée Méreaux Etudes.
The last step, though humanly impossible to perform, did add musical value finally!!

So awesome of a demo and influential for all, so a big bless for Nahre Sol!

Bravo, Nahre!! Wonderful and so beautiful, as always!
Oh, and I was surprised that 25/1 wasn’t included but then again you covered all the bases.
Thanks again, from Japan.
Nahre, you are fantastic! It's a pleasure to watch your videos, all inspiring and challenging! Brava! Thank you!
Enjoyed all the middle ones -- they either were music or sounded like music. And so well and smoothly played. Great tips also. Thanks.
So lovely just to watch you play. You’re amazing and I send my warmest wishes your way chica. Have a lovely year. ❤

Incidentally that section of Un Sospiro is probably the single most beautiful piece of music that has ever been created in the history of the human race imo
I love that piece so much
He also does it in a section of Spanish Fantasy
Also in Grande etudes de Paganini no 6!!!! 😊
Appreciate the tips and instruction!!!
Nahre Sol, you are the deal ! Your art is just amazing !
I just love how effortless you make this appear.
Excellent Pianist & Musicianship.
God bless you.
Scriabin op.17 no. 5 comes to mind. I thought it would be part of the list.
As always.....AMAZING! And beautiful to actually see it played. Thank you Nahre!😁👌😸
Your technique is a joy to see.
I just watched your WIRED video on the 16 levels of complexity for playing the Happy birthday song. Wow!

I'm so inspired to write my own arpeggio exercises after watching this, thank you so much, you're amazing.
This is a really complete compendium for piano-arpeggi. Really useful, Thank you Nahre!
Very clean play ! congrants! Level 14 arpegios Liszt's Transcendetal study No2 (2nd edition) and Level 15 Liszt's Transcendetal study No2 (Douze etudes 1st edition)

Nice video and awesome technique!
I can only say……WOW! As a non pianist but a lover of classical piano I appreciate the difficulty of that which Nahre has just shared. Thank you Nahre.
This is dope!💥
Just enjoy listening (to the sound of the piano) and watching (the choreography of your handsome fingers) !
I'm not a piano player, but I still enjoy watching this type of video to give me ideas on how to practice harmonica. There are some interesting bits in here that I think would transfer over.
Ms. Sol , you are a good pianist also a good piano instructor . Thank you.
Excellent masteries of the keys!!!
YES this is the plateau buster I’ve been waiting for!
This is exactly what I was looking for. Thank you so much for this fantastic video!
Thak you Nahre. This is the video I needed.
So awesome. Could listen to you the whole day (even if I never had the discipline to practice it myself)
WOW!! I have ALWAYS wanted learn this but have not had must success....gonna hit the practice field hard now Nahre!!
Thank you Nahre ! I’m starting piano and I’m level 1 😂 but I work everyday since july 😊 I visualize différences better now 🙏
0:27 To become as fluent as Nahre in any *sce-Nahre-o* ... what a thrilling prospect! 😅 😊
Such a good and entertaining video Nahre! you are amazing.
very kind of you to help us
Did not expect the chopin godowsky from you tbh, brava👏🏻
Fantastic content, your knowledge and explanations are amazing.
Thank you so much! I could kiss you!! You are the best teacher that I've had. You are a genius Nahre! ;)
Thankyou for this wonderful piano class.
Wow, you're a wonderful musician ❤
Tremendous overview of arpeggios and their use.
Wow, excellent! Every example clear and sounding great. Thank you!!
Just an Amazing Tutorial by Such an accomplished Pianist. Thank you for taking the Time To Inspire others.😊❤
outstanding content, advice , accuracy, delivery... fabulous. thank you Nahre!
Waiting for your webinar today : Practice Like a Pro with Randall Faber and Nahre Sol. Sooooo excited!!!
Wow you are a great player and teacher both! Kudos. Love your vids.
Thank you for the advice! I think I want to try and learn Beethoven’s piece mentioned in the fourth level. Arpeggios continue to be quite difficult for me, and I think this would be an excellent way to improve, even if only slowly :)
Pianist’s Day Off!! 😂😂 You’re awesome! 💜
What an entertaining yet educational video.
Really nice video for piano learners.
👍👍👍👍👍💐💐💐💐🙏
At level 13 now your just playing Cuban Timba 🎹😂. Awesome video!

Harikasınız. Çok teşekkür ederiz. Türkiye'den sevgiler ❤
Ok, I had to drop it at level 10 - when you I'm seeing 7-lits, I'm done!!
Love her videos - she is a virtuoso and she is so cool!!
