I remember when I played this. I always hurt the tip of my fingers because I always rushed it. Timed myself one time: fastest I can play is about 52 seconds...fastest I could* play I meant
@zeezeeshredder I mostly agree with you. By definition, it pretty much means to play as fast as you can, but it varies between different eras of music. A baroque/classical "prestissimo" is much slower than a modern "prestissimo". I agree with you that the notes have been played accurately in this rendition, however, it is debatable whether it is played too fast or not. If a piece is played too fast, it can be deprived of emotion and variation in dynamics.
To the people who are freaking out over the Piece being called a "song" : If the people are not musically talented and they are listening to this "piece," WHY ARE YOU COMPLAINING? In my opinion, anyone who listens to classical music (willingly) is a friend of mine. So chill.
Holy fuck that's perfect technique; but the dynamics sound really off to me - There's none of the soft-loud-soft you normally hear with Solfeggietto. Not sure if that's you or the camera though, since bad sound quality can often fuck up a perfect performance's dynamics.
'Oh and for the record it's a "piano" piece, as keyboards didn't exist in Bach's time. Idiot'
'Keyboard' is a generic term for a clavichord, harpsichord or early type of piano, but not usually for an organ. That is how I was using the term 'keyboard'. Of course I wasn't referring to the electronic instrument invented in the seventies, called a keyboard!
C.P.E. Bach probably wrote this piece for the harpsichord, or for the Fortepiano, an early form of the modern piano.

Everyone critisizes the speed in "solfeggietto" and its rather annoying. According CPB, this was meant to be prestissimo so therefore there should be no debate concearning speed and its very hard to show emotion on a speed of that intensity. Lastly, the only hard thing to accomplish in this piece is agility not the 16th notes which are easy to execute.
Maybe it's just my taste; but I prefer to play it medium/slow( like an Andante tempo) because it creates a kind of melancholic mood. But each to his own, and I must admit, you played it well!. Keep up the good work.
@MrOnTheLevel as many, many have said before, this is a piano piece, not keyboard piece. The difference is actually more of the pianos of that time period had a much mrs mellow sound. So it isn't even a modern day piano piece technically.
@mrsilly7789 My guess would be no pedal, at least for those 16th or 32nd notes, whatever they are. I don't know the meter for this piece, but those notes are coming so fast, so I figure they probably are at least 16th notes.
SLOW DOWN a hair....it is a fast song, but its not like playing flight of the bumble bee, its a mathimaticaly driven melody that should be HEARD. you did great, just needs to slow down a notch.
@yitzchak13 You are THE VILLAGE IDIOT .. your mother should have traded you for a piece of cow shit because cow shit is more useful than a brain dead idiot - gangbangers wanna be like you - who will go to prison and be someone girlfriend .. :-)
wow thats really fast!!!!! im trying to learn an easier piece of it and im taking it SLOW but im not sure if i could play it THAT fast!!!!!! wow!!!! Im glad that SOMEONE can!!!! good job keep it up!!!
incredible, you played it very fast and also managed to make no mistakes. I can play this in 40-45 seconds flawless, i'm thinking of uploading a vid :))
to everybody that hates people calling this pieces "songs" i understand what you mean but i call them songs too for the fact that you kinda sound like a douche bag or arrogant when you bad mouth someone for what they call it.
I can understand your viewpoint, and whereas you are entitled to your opinion, a piece is not a song at all. I am in no way offended, or trying to be rude. However, there is a distinct difference between the two. A song has to have vocals, if it does not, then it is classified as a piece. Its similar to saying PC games and Console games are the same thing, but if you said that to a gamer, they would be highly offended. Do you get what Im getting at?
@Handz2God i think you misunderstood me. i understand the difference, and being a gamer i would not be offended by someone confusing PC and console games nor would i be mad. the same can be said with music. i was just saying that some people get too pushy sometimes when telling somebody the difference between song and piece
Oh ,you are right, they are far too pushy. Speaking from experience, most people in the music world tend to be stuck up, its the truth. Especially in the classical music world. I am a diversified musician, so I have had experience in many genres, and met many musicians. So just know, that not all of us are like that, some of us realize that we are as human as the person we are talking to, and that other people deserve respect.
To those who think this is played too fast in this video: the piece calls for the speed "prestissimo", which is the absolute fastest speed in music. In this video it is played very well and very accurately. Definitely not too fast.
@zeezeeshredder the speed is not the problem. The problem is that the tempo keeps changing. It accelerates about halfway through, and then slows down too much.
@zeezeeshredder I like the way it is played. It's more fun and shows more skills. Everyone has different interpretations of playing even the same song. The only thing that bugs me a little bit is the uneven timing. Other than that, good job!
@xxhelendeexx indeed, especially when their mistake is to call a piece a song... in the end it doesn't really make much of a difference what you call beautiful music, does it? It's kinda the same as accidentally calling death metal black.
u play great dont get me wrong but u should slow down at the end and use more dynamics! remember some people here are musicians and can hear those mistakes
Holy sh*t. Man, this is fast. I'm just recently learning this piece but I had NO idea it was to be played at THIS speed. *__* Absolutely beautiful piece, you made it even better.
Aghhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! Why why why does everybody refer to this as a SONG? It's not a song, for God's sake, it's a PIECE! It's a keyboard piece. Ok? Got it? Is this the iPod generation, that has to refer to everything, even keyboard pieces, as 'songs'? How stupid!
@MrOnTheLevel No, but we do live in a world were people like you troll on the internet. I understand some people don't understand music theory, or even music at all. However, you don't need to be a jerk about it. Just say, "This is a piece, not a song."

Actually, since you are going to rant about this, it is not even that. It is a PIANO piece, this song was written centuries before keyboards ever existed. A keyboard is a MIDI instrument, invented in the mid 1970's, that uses binary encoded electronic waves to synthesize sound. A piano does nothing of the sort, and makes a very different sound. Only the "ipod generation" would fail to discern the two. I happen to be a music major, so I am not musically uneducated, as it were.
@MrOnTheLevel its the cultural generation. song refers to just music in general. if you want to get bitchy and technical than I suppose your just gonna have to deal with it.

I'm sorry but you sir sound like an ass. WAHH IT'S NOT A SONG! IT'S A KEYBOARD PIECE WAH! Musicians like you remind me of those kids on World of Warcraft that get pissed off when someone casts the wrong spell on an enemy. Grow up and enjoy the performance douche.
@Songofmagi2006 Absolutely correct.This modern playing of a piece by a great master does it no favours at all.This music is "Empfindsam" or music from the heart and soul.All the nuances and feelings are missing,and has just become a meaningless musical exercise.
@dancearecul, I think that your opinion is really good, but you must also consider things from the listener's view. If a song is played so fast that it just sounds like a jumbled mess and not like music then you won't have a very large audience. I also think that the performer should play at a comforting tempo as well but also keep in mind what peolpe listening hear. But this song was played well, and I really love it!
Seriously, after Alkan's Rondo-Toccata Etude 'Hands Reunited' you should really try to play the whole piece with one hand... Right or left - and alnernate when it's needed to press two notes.
Maybe sometime I'll upload this great piece performed by two hands synchronously. Not as fast as your version, but way more complicated - both hands make the same leaps and arpeggios. Exhausting!
I loved your perfection. Check Hamelin's Solfeggietto a Cinque after C.P.E. Bach for player piano. Really crazy!
45 dislikes? 45 more people to go die in a corner! THIS IS ABSOLOUTLY AMAZING! great job! all of those people who feel obliged to dislike it or make bad comments are just insecure little freaks who cant get it done hlaf as quickly as you. keep going!
Mjeh, I think it needs improvement. Too much pedaling for example, makes its a bit blurry, and I would say you could use more dynamics; now it's just notes playing after each other on a "straight line".
And i know how easy it is to speed it up, makes it more fun to play it, but it doesn't sound too pleasing for those who are listening to it, so slow it down :)
...no, Chopin's instruments were nearly the same as ours, we can play that rapidly on modern pianos, I don't know what you're basing this on. I understand this is true of the tempos of Czerny and other earlier composers, but Chopin? No way.
the speed is not fast, you have to flay, practice it and then record it, as soon as u know it, u play like that! i played it like that, the tempi is suppose to be 256
This sounded reaaaally rushed... I know this was kind of a joke, but you could make it a good quality performance. I think you could play it that fast but better. You should practice it and get it perfect slower and THEN speed up.... it would be pretty awesome then. You have great technique by the way.
this could be far more intense with accurate work on the pedals and keeping up the same speed.... and really, exactly that (and ONLY that) is whats making this piece difficult to play well...
@aStrimbu I agree, although it sounds nice to vary the tempo, Bach was very "textbook" and liked things done all one way. But please take this as constructive criticism. This is flawless technically! I also like the speed at which you're playing it.
I'm learning this as a 11 year old and I can play about 5 times slower than you! You're doing great!

I also think that the performer should play at a comforting tempo as well but also keep in mind what peolpe listening hear. But this song was played well, and I really love it!

I used to play this song - im sure the tempo was supposed to be a bit slower and more could be done with phrasing. at least you hit the right notes.

Seriously, after Alkan's Rondo-Toccata Etude 'Hands Reunited' you should really try to play the whole piece with one hand... Right or left - and alnernate when it's needed to press two notes.
Maybe sometime I'll upload this great piece performed by two hands synchronously. Not as fast as your version, but way more complicated - both hands make the same leaps and arpeggios. Exhausting!
I loved your perfection. Check Hamelin's Solfeggietto a Cinque after C.P.E. Bach for player piano. Really crazy!

Mjeh, I think it needs improvement. Too much pedaling for example, makes its a bit blurry, and I would say you could use more dynamics; now it's just notes playing after each other on a "straight line".
And i know how easy it is to speed it up, makes it more fun to play it, but it doesn't sound too pleasing for those who are listening to it, so slow it down :)

...no, Chopin's instruments were nearly the same as ours, we can play that rapidly on modern pianos, I don't know what you're basing this on. I understand this is true of the tempos of Czerny and other earlier composers, but Chopin? No way.
JohnEBPiano 1 year ago
@JohnEBPiano In fact, many people play faster than the original tempo markings in the etudes. Have you ever played on an antique Pleyel piano?
JohnEBPiano 1 year ago
@JohnEBPiano Pleyel pianos had smaller keys as well as lighter weighted keys, which allowed pianist to play faster with ease.

This sounded reaaaally rushed... I know this was kind of a joke, but you could make it a good quality performance. I think you could play it that fast but better. You should practice it and get it perfect slower and THEN speed up.... it would be pretty awesome then. You have great technique by the way.

this could be far more intense with accurate work on the pedals and keeping up the same speed.... and really, exactly that (and ONLY that) is whats making this piece difficult to play well...

AddieChristianGirl94 1 year ago
It's okay to play it really fast as long as it's equally fast throughout. This wasn't exactly at a constant tempo, but nobody is perfect.

@aStrimbu I agree, although it sounds nice to vary the tempo, Bach was very "textbook" and liked things done all one way. But please take this as constructive criticism. This is flawless technically! I also like the speed at which you're playing it.

@aStrimbu not true, you should vary your tempo to put your style into it, otherwise it's to mechanical
