What’s up guuuuuyyyyyys!!! Hope you are having a great time! Have you played a piece by Ravel? Tell me in the comments!❤️ for everyone who wants to support me and my channel - check out the new Super Thank Button 😇🙏🏻 thank you!!
I began to learn “Pavane pour une Infante Défunte” but I stopped because it was too hard
What's up annique i love your videos your are so talented + you are a hard worker so the result is sublime❤❤
I play a LOT of Ravel. Everything he composed is absolute musical genius. Everything! I play the whole of Gaspard on a regular basis. Also Noble and Sentimental Walzes, Mirior, ...also a LOT of Faure. Would you try out some of the Barcarrolles? Id love to see you try them in this format.
Definitely interested in a video on how the action of the piano works! As always keep up the good work :)
i love how ravel sounds.... but it's so technically crazy! lol. love what you did here though with such a technically demanding piece! keep up the good work!
For the next challenge I would suggest Liszt's Mazeppa, or the Chopin's Polonaise Op. 44, or perhaps the Chopin's Nocturne Op. 9 No. 3.
+1 for Mazeppa
Maybe Debussy's Etudes or L'isle Joyeuse could be good if we continue the line of french composers. (Poulenc Toccata as well as Saint Saens Etudes could be g)
@@SCRIABINIST I was even thinking of putting Reflets dans l'eau for example, but I don't have much idea of its difficulty...
@@ByNormal Technical wise, it's about the same as L'isle Joyeuse, easier/harder than Jeux D'eau depending on your technique. So not too hard but challenging. I don't think Reflets is a good choice because the opening sections don't have too much special challenges to them
Feux Follets, most definitely !
this piece is the entire reason why I started playing piano 3 years ago
I remember when my piano teacher was working on this piece, he showed me that at the beginning he would hook the little finger of one hand around one of the notes in the chord in the other, then play the rapid D# notes like a tremolo, alternating between fingers 1 & 5 - except the 5th finger was playing a note that was already being depressed by the other hand! Brilliant!
This piece definitely belongs in your repertoire, if you ask me. At first it sounds a bit random and avantgarde, but i'm sure if you master it, it will be an outstanding and off-mainstream highlight.
Off-mainstream? Ravel's most famous virtuoso piece?
Ornstein needs more representation.
@@LunaLeaves ORNSTEIN SONATAS
Avantgarde? Are you joking? This piece is a classic in the piano repertoire
Not avant-garde at all. It's deeply Romantic and Impressionistic. Ravel even called Scarbo a "caricature of Romanticism".
I’ve played it some years ago but never was really satisfied with it, I can see it as a lifetime study. Love the piece, extremely fun once it’s in your fingers.
Who's your favorite composer ? I see that your repertoire is diverse.
rush E
The piece is kinda mediocre, no offense
@@capitalistgoose4761 play it then
@@bloba6969 It's a really difficult decision for me, there are just too many great composers out there, and I'm still just scratching the surface. Thus far I could say I enjoy playing Ravel, Prokofiev, Beethoven, Liszt, Kapustin, but no definite favorite!
It’d be interesting to see how well Annique could perform an easy piece in 1 hour
Maybe Liszt/Schubert Serenade could be a good choice. Even though it's not "easy" it's way easier than the ones she's trying now.
@@Nola1222Piano scarbo, one of the most difficult
This is my first time watching your challenge. Thank you SO much for showing the first minute. Our culture is increasingly performance based and we must demonstrate process-thank you!!!
Cx lol gotta love those double sharps 😅😅😅
That was amazing in just one hour, I'd love to see a challenge on the Ondine part, it's so beautiful!
"Ondine"
@@ByNormal thx I'll edit it
thats my favourite piece but i cannot play it yet
The piano at my parents' home has a terrible, sticky/heavy action. It's hard to play trills and tremolos on it. I may be picking a new instrument for myself soon, so would love to hear your thoughts about the action :)
Omg I’ve never clicked a notification so quick, waited so long for this one! 😱🤩
Me too
Now let’s wait for Ondineeee/Le Gibet🥰🥰
That was amazing progress for just one hour.
I’ve played the Pavane for a Dead Princess. It’s a beautiful piece, but very tricky, with inner voices switching between hands.
Wie du das in einer Stunde lernst, ist einfach nur insane. Ich hätte immer noch am ersten Akkord herumgetüftelt😅
Wow! Super impressive how well you did with this over such a short space of time. Well done!!
TIP: For the repeated notes in this piece I have seen people say to distribute them between the left and right hand. Even Marc-Andre Hamelin has to do this trick in order to get all those repeated notes to sound right!
That’s what I was thinking. Use the left for the chord and the right for the repeated
So fascinating to watch you learn this piece and play it. Thank you for sharing. 🙂
Omg, mind blowing!! You are truly amazing 🤩
Really enjoyed this video, it’s nice to see how you tried to overcome the struggles in practicing. I also love how casual you are in sitting on the piano bench, my piano teacher would have chopped off my legs if I ever did that!
I've been struggling with a Ravel piece... but watching this inspires me to practice because it is very true that one must find those instances to relax so that the wrist can play the notes lightly and quickly. Well done! Yet again another great video. Love this series
For one hour that was pretty impressive!! I’ve played some Ravel and want to learn the Waltzes Noble et Sentimental at some point. I find the hand choreography the most difficult with Ravel with hands often on top of each other. So I stick more to Debussy.
You are absolutely incredible! Without a doubt you have this. It is my favourite piece, I can only dream of playing it. You were so close working just an hour, I am in awe.
as a pianist 4 years ago ravel's scarbo piece is so hard but once you got it you can just do it on repeat to make it perfect
Impressive use of the hour. I enjoy this series greatly, but I caution those with less advanced skills to be careful of applying this to pieces they want to incorporate into repertoire. Unlearning mistakes takes so much time, and in a tight spot, one's brain might revert to the initial error, learned as it was in the setting of high adrenaline/time constraints.
Thank you for never failing to make me laugh :) These videos always make me incredibly happy.
I play the whole piece: Gaspard de la nuit
Ondine
Le Gibet & ( this is hardest for me)
Scarbo
I documented my progress on Scarbo from sightseeing to concert---I started @ 21:00 down to 8:53 in performance.
I currently play Petroushka & Islamey everyday & believe all 3 could be considered the holy grail of difficulty
I also play Busoni's Chachonne in d minor & Schubert's Wanderer fantasy, Liszt b minor sonata & Brahms Paganini Variations, ( the last 2 in 1 concert performance).
I'm working on the Godowski 53 paraphrases on the Chopin Etudes.
They're 10 times harder & often exceedingly beautiful like Opus 10 # 1: where the LH does all the normal etude--adding a RH in contrary motion, still adding a chord sequence, cascading octaves & tons of Bachesque voice leading. I'm a couple of reps from full memory & 80% on tempo( it shreds your tendons--READ---super stretches!)
Always striving...........
I’d really like to see you trying ondine also from ravel’s gaspard de la nuit
It’s a really beautiful and technically challenging piece and I would really like to see how you will solve some of the problems while learning the piece because of the way it is
The history of the piano action is long and fascinating. You should definitely research the development of piano actions and make a video about it. I am fortunate enough to own the very first piano with the Steinway accelerated action. It is a 1931 New York model M that was played and autographed by Josef Hofmann. It was also autographed by Theodore Steinway. Also, I own a 1966 New York model B that has an all original Steinway Teflon action.
big flex
The Teflon actions were horrible. That's why they were discontinued. That wore out around the center pins and eventually started making clacking sounds. It was the one "bad" idea Steinway came up with.
You are adorable and inspiring!!
such an underrated channel! I hope your content gets truly spread around much more! keep up the awesome content :)
I love this piece
So much progress in just one hour! Amazing! Can you make this challenge for a Brazilian piece, like Odeon or Tico-Tico no Fubá?
I have been 3 months into this piece and the one hour progress is so impressive! I should be glad if you could give some tips in general to make the most out of the hour session
Só pretty Annique! I apreciate that!
great challenge , this piece is the one that made me want to learn the piano . i am not quite there yet 😜 but you are , you should definitely put to your repertoire . Good luck 🤞
When I feel like beating myself up I will pull out something by Ravel. I have Jeux D'eau on my stand as well as Gaspard, two pieces I would kill for to play some day. True masterpieces.
Amazing work on a fierce piece of music! Brava! There are performance videos of Martha Argerich (1980) and Yuja Wang (2019) I can recommend. My favorite is the Yuja video with the score. They have very different interpretations, which is a good thing!
I’m so proud of you that you even dare to attempt Scarbo as a 1h challenge! Gespard de la Nuit is considered the pinnacle of Impressionism. Arguably the hardest piece by Ravel. I got stuck with Pavane pour une infante défunte 😀. What’s next on this crazy ladder? Nuages Gris? Kreisleriana? Liszt’s Sonata? Really impressed how far you got here 😍. Would love it in your repertoire!
For the next one I would love to hear you play something more "folkloryc", as a Colombian I have to recommend "La gata golosa" lol, but anything like that would be awesome
Wow so good for just 1hr practice. In my mind its one of the hardest pieces ever
I love you video, you play so well, I learned the piano 7 years ago and I continue to train for I love you video, you play so well, I learned the piano 7 years ago and I continue to train to be at your level but I know I would never be as strong as you 😂😂 Keep it up 💪👍
your editing skills improve from video to video❤❤❤
Rennerhämmer 👍… ein extra Video darüber wäre phantastisch 😊
oof i can feel how painful the left hand is, u did great!!!!!
For your next challenge, I would really recommend Rach's Prelude op 23 no 7 in C Minor. It's such a beautiful and underrated piece that I think would be really fun to try and play in an hour
Magnificent!
YES I LOVE THIS PIECE ♥
Sorry but I feel attacked when you stopped to read those chords one by one, eyes squinting with the “uhhhhhhhhh” 😭 that’s literally me on a daily basis
Imagine her trying to play Études d'exécution Transcendante d'après paganini no.1(random question I have a piece with the dynamic Sffz and FFFF how you would you play that)
When i saw you going to try Scarbo, i thought "You're not going to get very far in to this piece". Good effn luck girl.
Thanks for these inspiring videos 😊🙏 that really encourage me to practice consistently (currently Chopin's etude op.25 n.1 and op 33 n.7 by Rachmaninov), as the closest to a teacher that I have is a pianist fruend who coaches me a little bit 😅.
I would be very interested in a piano mechanics video. Also if you feel like playing Scriabin op42 n.5 for your next challenge, I would love to hear that. I wish you the best 😎
Hi Annique! I am currently learning Moonlight Sonata 3rd movement. i am 15 years old. Im having some trouble on the Alberti bass on the left and right hand. Can you make a video on the piece or maybe just the Alberti bass Technique?
It would be cool to do une barque sur l'océan by Ravel too! It's a bit less obviously difficult, but I imagine very tricky to get right!
I really hope you do the other two next!
OMG You did incredibl./ !! Could you do the Ondine from Gaspard de la Nuit or just continue practicing the next steps of Scarbo pls ???? !
I was waiting for this videoooo
Beautiful! Now only the other like 15 minutes of the piece lol!!
I don't want to be offensive, but it is kind of nice to see Annique struggle and try to overcome it. Her performances are usually darn close to perfect after one hour. I wonder how often Ravel forced himself to play this piece and how he fingered the repetitions.
I suggest when the beggining, you swap hands. For the stave on the top use ur left and the repeated with your right for the following reasons.
1: without hands that are over tenths you cannot fully play the entire chord. Like me.
2: if your a righty then your right would be stronger than your left and it would have more stamina to play those repeated notes
And for the repeated just use 111111111111 for fingering
Very technical piece. Had the side notes not been indicating wrong notes were being played I would never have known she was making mistakes. Very great accomplishment.
Deciding to actually sit at the piano is of course the ultimate step forward.
Ravel is unadulterated awesomeness.
Do you have software that can highlight the notes you are playing as you run through the piece?
Annique so beautiful 😍
Having played/performed the entire suite, it is definitely one of the most difficult pieces ever written. Now, in Scarbo, you must play the repeated notes with alternate fingering. The wrist alone can never control the speed and sound properly. Also, you may never get an excellent enough piano that can accommodate such intense wrist action. Also, the wrist repetitions create a different sound produced by your body. If you prefer it then I can't talk you down from it.
Remember that when you are playing the repeated notes within the body of the piece, make sure you play in the LARGEST beat possible NOT the smallest. Also, when playing those higher octave-type quasi-tremelos(as in just before the big PAUSE, at the beginning) keep your fingers quieter and lower to the keys. Your right hand seems to be flapping around too much. In a nutshell, for Scarbo, economy of motion is the real key. Best of luck and I look forward to your finished product. Gaspard is well worth the hard work to master!.
This was very impressive after 1 hour or so. Scarbo is incredibly difficult. Later on in the piece there are the "famous" parallel 2nds in one hand. The only Ravel I've really played are two piano concertos which are great fun - the LH concerto is very tough.
Echt schönes Video wie immer! 👍 Auf Deine Frage im Video hin, kann ich sagen, dass ich an einer näheren Erklärung der Funktionsweise eines Flügels interessiert bin.
Absolut! Ich unterstütze das :)
Gaspard de la Nuit has no key, Annique! Crazy piece! You should say more about the tonality. This is ETA Hoffmann.
Hi Annique!! I hope you can play this challenge with Tchaikovsky's Swan Lake Opus 20 I: Scene! It's one of my favorites :)
Please do a video or series of videos on piano action!
❤️❤️your videos!
I believe the C. Bechstein Contert series action is totally built in house 👌🏻
would love to hear the third movement of ravel’s sonatine!! i’m learning it for my diploma so i’d love to hear u play it
Nice video :D the repeated notes doesn't necessarily have to be executed via left hand. I do it with right hand, 321321321321, and the harmony with the left hand instead.
It’s difficult to play with 321 and having 4 32nd notes for each beat I think, it’s uneven. Do you count each beat too or just play randomly?
@@ThaPAnthemI don’t count each beat, because Ravel is going for timeless mystery rather than calculated approach.
definitely a hard piece lol........I've played Ravel Miroirs, Jeux d'eau etc......never tried to play this though....
für mich als keyboarder ist das sowieso ein rätsel, wie manche dieses stück auswendig können. ich kenn das vom hören einigermaßen aber diese art komplexität ist erschlagend
Not just Yamaha but also Kawai make their own action (Millenium III for Kawai, and it seems to be a very good one).
I was just listening to this piece and u made a video about it lol
I love hearing you take on more modern-era repertoire! It's good to hear you play outside of Chopin, Beethoven, Rachmaninoff, etc. Would love to hear you take on other composers who pushed piano-playing to the limit during the 20th century!!! (Ligeti, Messiaen, etc.)
Oh! Also, a small note for the beginning, you're actually doing too many repetitions for the thirty-second notes (only 4 notes per beat) making it actually harder on yourself 😂.
A suggestion for the next challenge would be the Chopin Waltz op. 64 Nr. 2. (If you haven't played it before obiviously)
I think it is a really nice piece and (even though I haven't played it myself), it looks like it is not too hard, so that you could actually manage to play though the piece after the challenge.
More like.. GASP..ard de la Nuit. 😳
You should do Chopin's Berceuse if you haven't already. It's essentially a study for the right hand, but would make for a great 1:10:60!
Anyway my 2 cents. My favorite version is the one from Ivo Pogorelich. That's said, this piece has one of the most energetic rhythm of all times, but Scarbo, means btw treasure in Polish, it's a gnome, is not only scarring but also smiling and funny. Now, if you listen carefully to the end, Ravel writes an homage at Schubert's ErlenKönig, with the scale in the left hand. Schubert used this motif. Ravel btw knew everything, there is much From Schumann also in his work (not here), some less known Schumann pieces. OK, now i just wanted to say that most people play this TOO FAST ! I would like to hear once a rather relaxed Scarbo, not on steroids... As Slow as possible ! A little bit slower as Pogorelich even.. That would be a nice experience...
maybe scriabin etude op8 no12 for your next 1Min, 10Min, 1Hour challenge. Such a beautiful piece, im wondering how long it will take to learn the peace
hi Annique i think that it is important to understand the machine of the piano to get the best sound so i think an episode about the mecanisme of the piano wld b useful
i'd love that video on piano action!!!
Hey great video! Could you maybe try the Sabre Dance next? That’d be super cool
Can you do a video like the « history music crash curse » one ? It was a nice concept, everyone liked it if i recall.
you = good person
If you haven't already done a video on arpeggios, could you do a video on methods and ways to build and get better on arpeggios? (:
Does anybody know what song is played in the background of her practicing during the one hour?
Yes for technical video about piano
Would love to see the first movement of Gaspard de la nuit (ondine)
Your expression was exactly the same as mine when i started this ahah
It was written for Piano Tuners by the looks of it.
Great video as always. Where did you get that studio ghibli shirt?
I'm studying Gaspard right now. I encourage you to read Le Gibet. This is an absolute sight-reading nightmare...
Would love to see any of the later scriabin sonatas in this challenge, maybe the 5th?
🖤🖤🖤
Can you do a 1min 10min 1hour challenge on Scriabin's left hand nocturne next please?
Good idea
Hi Annique. I find your videos really beneficial. Thank you very much. I am an amateur clarinetist. I think I really need resources to follow like your TH-cam channel. Do you know any classic clarinetist who produce videos like yours? Or could you advice me any resource? Thanks again :)
I recommend for your next challenge to do Op 75 No. 5 (Le Sapin/The Spruce) by Sibelius, its such an underrated piece by Sibelius and very beautiful
I was dying to cross my "t" and now that I have chance, I am ready for the trills. Sometimes I have problems breathing and have to time the rhythm to the tempo and the pitch. I keep getting very high pitch at the end. More practicing...
The story is hard stuff!
Amazing video you are incredible, can you please make the hungarian dance no 5 please.
Ontzettend leuk wat je steeds laat zien, dankjewel! Ik speel het tweede deel adagio assai van het pianoconcert in G van Ravel. Het is een arrangement gemaakt door Albert Tiu, een conservatorium docent in Singapore. Hij heeft het zelf ook op TH-cam staan. Ik vind het adembenemend mooi, echt een van de mooiste orkeststukken die ik ken. Ik zou het zeer waarderen als je van Rachmaninov, etudes tableaux, op. 33, no. 7 in G minor een video zou willen maken. De maten 26 tot en met 29, ik kom er niet doorheen... Vingerzetting is een groot vraagstuk. Maar ja, al die verzoeken 🙄
