@@bakuto.1055 Depends on what your taste is. In my opinion, you can't fully pinpoint a style to a composer/pianist but rather to the piece itself. That's why e.g. I sometimes like Schubert pieces played by Mrs. Pires better than the ones played by Barenboim and vice versa. I really like Tiffany's performance of the Polonaise.
8:25 THIS PART. The way the bass still thunders even shortly after the next theme has started it’s kinda like clouds after a thunderstorm slowly disappearing to reveal the sun hOWWWW ITS PERFECT
Give it your best and see what comes around but most importantly: Have fun! Don't play just to be better or to compare yourself to others. It's gotta be a mix of extrinsic and intrinsic motivation. ;) And guys in the comments: Stop talking about years as if you knew the exact amount of time it takes someone to do something at a certain level. It is way more sophisticated than that!
7:19 you have incredible elasticity with these octaves. It looks so natural and sounds unforced with a clear sense of the overarching line. That's just one moment - your whole performance is beautifully judged!
Wow. That was great. The people who made it possible for you to have the Steinway have truly given the world a gift. Can you imagine if Chopin had somehow been able to know that this girl from Hong Kong would be in a NYC apartment playing his music on this piano to the world via the net? It's pretty astounding.
@sam kawalski bruh, have you ever even played the etudes or the polonaise? There's maybe like 4, max 5, etudes that are comparable in difficulty to the polonaise. 10-1, 10-2, 25-6, 25-10 and 25-11
Nice description....😂...I personally would love to have been at Chopin’s first performance of Ballade 4. Coda must have knocked the folks out of their seats....🧨... as I think of your description, I’ve always thought of Scriabin PS 2 in a similar way..starts dreamy meandering>>>erotic urgent~fantasy finish..
RJ Lee lol just because classical music is predominantly European doesn’t mean that it’s white supremacy, though i do think that there is a large need for POC and lgbtq+ people in the classical industry, classical music is beyond the person and transcends the soul, as is all music
I’m struggling on rondo alla turca But this gives me all the motivation in the universe to keep at my piano practice Started to play at the passing of my mother 4 years ago only way to ease the sorrow that invaded every cell of my being I was 59 Merci for this whimsical rendition Unique style of yours TP
You will be saving for six years then:) Cheapest new piano with some sort of "quality" badge costs 3600 euros (Yamaha B1, Kawai K15), sounds nowhere as good as Steinway and weights no less than 200 kilos. You can buy a cheap trash old piano, but you probably will need to pay whole year savings for it to be transported to your place. If you can put aside only 50 euros a month better save for a new bike and ride to the nearest local public music school.
Lorenzo, don't wait any longer: you might be able to RENT a good piano for a small monthly fee (in Germany, monthly fees start around 25,- EUR). If it's a decent seller, they will give you a discount on the instrument when you finally buy it. Go for it!
You can play decent music with a 200 € digital keyboard. I have one like that and it's very satisfying, just add a mudolar sustain pedal and its fine. You can upgrade later for dynamic keys for around 800 €. There is ne point begin piano on a steinway
Tiffany interprets Chopin's poetry with dignity and a sublime touch. The months, weeks and hours that came before allow the listener to witness both your artistry and the timelessness of Chopin's again and again!
10:10! 10/10! I've heard so many recordings of this and always wondered it seems so obvious what Chopin was trying to say and nobody translated it correctly, until you! The greats may have nailed the scherzo section but this is my favorite recording of this piece ever because of the 10:10. Thank you for enriching my study session, Tiffany. I hope I can play as well as you did when you were 12 someday :)
I’ve played this piece years ago. I reaaallly like your interpretation. You are very artistic. Many pianist are all about technique, but you have both. I’m a fan!
I’ve been watching you play for years now… I must say you were absolutely fantastic such exquisite playing… So smooth on every note. Absolute power where it’s needed and a beautiful singing tone where it’s essential…. I think you really captured the essence of what Chopin was trying to convey. Interpretation just loved every minute… You are something else ❤️
The first part is like daydreaming for me, really took me somewhere, the Polonaise is also marvelous. Amazing performance! Btw really excited for the 121th vlog, but take all your time reading the thousands of stories!
Fingers like the waters of an ocean and the keys their land; like all the shores of an ocean from crashing waves against a steep bluff to the gentlest ebb and flow of the smallest tide ;)
Really wonderful performance, particularly the Grand Polonaise, which you showed the playfulness to great effect. I always think this was Chopin having fun, and showing that he wasn't always so serious! Well done! I think Chopin would have shed a few tears at this if he could see/hear it - the passion, the accuracy, the amazing instrument. Amazing!
Bravo!!👏👏 Wonderful playing😀 very beautiful Andante Spianato and Polonaise taken at a good tempo with great clarity and not rushed unlike some other performances
You are very good as a performer. Everything is up close and in high definition today. Your moves are graceful. Your have poise and a good profile. Lovely hands. You do not play too loud or too fast. Some virtuosos are too loud too fast.
This actually made me tear... it was very moving. Best thing that happened to me all week. I don't have enough words to describe how wonderful the music you make is.
Wow! I‘ve been following your channel for a few months now and I have to say that I absolutely love and admire your playing! I can really feel your emotions that you put into the pieces you play and I can identify myself with them (sorry if this is not possible to say in English, I hope that the meaning of my sentence is understandable 😅). Greetings from Switzerland! 😊😊
you know, sometimes I'm really convinced that there is an organized "dislike group" which hops from video to video and dislike it regardless of its content lol.
i think its probably young teens and kids who clicked the video , and because they only like pop music, just disliked immediately and clicked away. you know how kids are these days, they speak through social media. clicking dislike is second nature to them as they exclaim under their breath " lame old people music"
Wow! So beautiful! I'm setting this on infinite loop to play in the background for the rest of the day. This is so beautiful, Tiffany! Thank you! Love your touch! Oh my goodness! That's so beautiful!!! It's like soft and strong at the same time. I simply can't get enough of this. Awesome! Thank you, Tiffany!!! 💙
¡Bravo Tiffany! Chopin thrills us from your piano. Without a doubt you're one of Chopin's top 3 live performers. Thank you very much for your musical gift. From Chile with love.
She always looks for the best sound or voicing when she practices. If she keeps doing that, she will be one of the legend in future. She has been improving better and better
Music played in innocence carries the tune with sweetness and delight, yet a melody played in woes burdens each note with the weight of countless tears.
I seldom hear an interpretation a second time in a row......I am listening for a 3rd time, and have sent it to all my friends! Congratulations Tiffany! You are a great artist! Keep growing and developing. I am sure you will be one of the greatest interpreters of the XXIst Century!🌹🌹🌹🌹💖💖💖💖💖✨✨✨✨✨✨
It somehow sounds like a whole orchestra playing a concerto with piano in a salon. Maybe because you always cherish every single note while playing? Great performance!
To me the left hand is the vehicle traveling the beautiful countryside and the right hand is the couple in love riding in that vehicle...I have heard the second theme in the motion picture "The Pianist" very very nice Tiffany you have never sounded better!!!
What a wonderful interpretation, right there with Yundi Li and Krystian Zimmerman. I especially love non-Orchestra versions. Tiffany has a much more ethereal quality to her Spianato and the Polanaise has great dyanmics.
The way you let the right hand sing is amazing. I love how you don’t let your left hand overpower your right hand. 4:45: Grande Polonaise Brilliante. The high F sound a bit flat.

the control in her hands is amazing. Whenever I try to play a quiet but fast piece I sound like I'm trying to aggressively slap a child
In my opinion this should be way louder and clearer but thats just my opinion.
That metaphor got me laughing so hard, so relateable!!

@@meylaul5007 try listening to Kissin. I don't know what it is, but he just never dissapoints.
I barely play guitar but I get it.
Tiffanys touch is unique!
Exactly
IKR
In what way?
Her hallmark is her feather-soft touch.
Also her interpretation of every piece she played.
Edit: I'm the 180th like.
i feel like a feather after listening to this
I feel like a feather too.
I feel so weightless
frictionless
I don’t play piano but dang she inspires me to practice.
Yeah we got some hard work all of us to do
8:25 THIS PART. The way the bass still thunders even shortly after the next theme has started it’s kinda like clouds after a thunderstorm slowly disappearing to reveal the sun hOWWWW ITS PERFECT
That's actually pretty cool
I wonder if a similar effect can be achieved on an upright too(with the proper control from the pianist of course)
@@lifestyleastherapyafterstr9423 me too!
0:01- Andante Spianato
4:44- Grande Polonaise Brillante
Brilliant performance!
I just got my first keyboard 2 months ago, i hope i'll be able to play as good as you in the future!
cool, I´m planning to buy one myself soon once the lockdown in our place eases
Sure! You just need 30 years of study. Easy...
@@oscarc.2705 Deliberate practice and many things are possible. She's also only 23 I think (if my math is right from one of her other videos).
@@oscarc.2705 You don't need 30, around 15 will do.

What I love about Tiffany is that she can so easily transition between delicate grace and raw power.
7:19 you have incredible elasticity with these octaves. It looks so natural and sounds unforced with a clear sense of the overarching line.
That's just one moment - your whole performance is beautifully judged!
Love this comment!! I personally love Tiffany’s style and “her take/variations” on a lot of pieces and movements 🙂
That's what practicing Brahms does to you 😂
This video is one of my standbys when I’ve had a rough day and need to calm the turmoil in my soul.
Wow. That was great. The people who made it possible for you to have the Steinway have truly given the world a gift. Can you imagine if Chopin had somehow been able to know that this girl from Hong Kong would be in a NYC apartment playing his music on this piano to the world via the net? It's pretty astounding.
She makes the Polonaise look easy while it’s one of the most difficult things Chopin ever wrote
Not really, i play it almost very good, im 16 and not a professional, it s doable:))
I agree that she plays it very well, but how can you say that she makes it look easy? It looks phenomenally difficult!
@@drpiercy it's a classic comment don't judge him:))
this is one of the easy ones
@sam kawalski bruh, have you ever even played the etudes or the polonaise? There's maybe like 4, max 5, etudes that are comparable in difficulty to the polonaise. 10-1, 10-2, 25-6, 25-10 and 25-11
This woman is musical art personified. Absolutely beautiful.
We missed you!

Great performance, as always!

Very accurate description
Some people think it's time to stop playing White supremacist music. Classical music is the worst example of White supremacy and is racist.
RJ Lee lol just because classical music is predominantly European doesn’t mean that it’s white supremacy, though i do think that there is a large need for POC and lgbtq+ people in the classical industry, classical music is beyond the person and transcends the soul, as is all music
NOOO NOW I'M IMAGINING CHOPIN DANCING WILDLY SKEHDKJEHF
we have been blessed once again
I love Tiffany so much... she literally embodies everything I wanna be as an online influencer in classical music 🤤🤤
I'm speechless. In this life, I can love and appreciate this music from this great soul. So many gifts in this life. Thank you, Tiffany.
Unbelievable that I could watch this for free 😭 thank you so much Tiffany ❤
You learned this in what, about a month or less, that is incredible, taking me well over a year.
I’m struggling on rondo alla turca
But this gives me all the motivation in the universe to keep at my piano practice
Started to play at the passing of my mother 4 years ago only way to ease the sorrow that invaded every cell of my being I was 59
Merci for this whimsical rendition
Unique style of yours TP
@@mariecohen3052 It's a struggle with almost every piece, believe me :)
@@mralcina8726 You'll improve at the process of learning with each piece that you learn - Love the process and be persistent.
She actually played it when she was 12 , so now she just remembered it. Anyway everything she is doing is incredible.
@@mariecohen3052 I'm sorry for your loss. Playing music in an absolutely dark room got me through some pretty tough times.
I will save 50 euros every months now to buy a piano. It's been to long that I am saying "I will..."

Tiffany interprets Chopin's poetry with dignity and a sublime touch. The months, weeks and hours that came before allow the listener to witness both your artistry and the timelessness of Chopin's again and again!
I really love the way she touches the piano. Whatever she plays, she creates a very gentle but controlled sound.
Thank you so much for bringing us to the world of Chopin

This is fabulous. I really like your touch on the piano.
wow i can't describe how much I love your expression
She, just plays with so much emotion!! That’s difficult to do with classical, because everything is written down... But she feels every note!
she knows how to give the piece so much feeling with just her touch - genius
This recording was mic'd absolutely perfectly!
My God . This is officially my favorite piece of music.
多謝Tiffany, 俾我可以一邊做嘢, 一邊聽鋼琴演奏,(有時會乖乖坐住聽) 我唔係好識音樂, 但因為經常在東歐, 包括了波蘭, 所以認識Chopin的音樂,有机會參觀他的故居, 一些教會的人同我講他的故事, 雖然我不是很懂音樂, 但非常喜歡蕭邦的音樂. 在東歐做宣教其中一個benefits, 就係接觸好多音樂學生, 有啲已經係專業嘅音樂人, 我都好欣賞佢地. 希望他日佢地都能成為出眾嘅人材, 也有高尚嘅品格.
再一次多謝你返嚟TH-cam.
We’ve missed you. Thank you so so much for this treat. Hope you’re safe!🥰🥰🥰😀😀😀😀

This is my favorite Chopin's piece and Tiffany did It simply wonderful. It's like a dream ✨
The fingers floating and touching the keys .
Tiffany,you are really amazing.
Her articulation and expression just leaves a mark and makes her listeners speechless
Chopin composed a variety of great songs, but great pianists always keeps those preserved 😊 wonderful performance as always
Really Fantastic! I love how you become one with Chopin himself and with your gorgeous Steinway piano! I miss your videos.
Bravo, Bravo, Bravo!!!
Magnific! She has everything, feeling, touch, and a pair of hands that fly with every note, Tiffany you are excellent and lovely concertist!
Welcome back Tiffany, great to hear you again and wow, what a range of emotion, focus and excitement. Awesome, it’s lifted my day, thank you !

Yup. It's called humanity. Luckily it's only the toxic part :)

Lovely! Listening it while im in virtual class made me feel so good
Excellent original. Carneval op.9, Partita n° 2 and these are eccellent.
Her touch is so soft! Incredible playing and talent.
