This is the correct tempo for Reverie. In my opinion, I like it slower. But the tempo that Debussy has, it is meant to go faster than you would think.
This is my favorite intreperation of Reverie on youtube. I love the motion you give to this piece. You give it wonderful coloring and a bring a new dimension to it without robbing it of its inherient musical design. I love it. I haven't been able to play it anyother way since watching your vid, and I am very thatnkful for that. Wonderful job. Wonderful.
I don't see why people are complaining so much about how he plays it! If you took a random person who didn't know anything about this song or piano, they would say this is beautiful and i agree. If you think you could do a better job, post a video of you playing this yourself.
i can hear rubato(unnecessary ones) + rush, relax, no ones goin to say ur bad or watever, jus play the song nicely. Careful of ur pedalling as well, tis piece is not a sudden staccato.
I learned this when I was 11. I am 12 now. May I suggest that you could slow it down just a bit, it's a romantic song, not a race. I know I am in no place to critisize, but just some thoughts to put out there. I try doing it by memory ( I saw you turn the page) I learned this song in 7 months and preformed it by memory.
I really love this piece....well Debussy is one of my favourite composers so...xD But yeah, I think the speed is good, if it is slower it can become boring although if it's even faster it'll have no emotion, I like it :) but there's something I need to tell you, but please don't be mad, you can just try this out: try to variate the speed in some parts and also exagerate on Fortes/Pianos like you were gonna die or something! :D
I loved to study this Reverie...please continue! :)
good technic but i would say a little too fast at the beggining ,,, and a little bit more emotion but you played it very well... im still getting this piece im almost done... so i cant talk much ..lol but thats what i think
The tempo is ok at certain points, but it's ok the vary it. Clearly, this is a good performance, however it feels a little dry. It lacks the emotion that is intrinsic to Debussy, in my opinion.
en mi opinion la interpretacion deberia ser màs variante en la velocidad, refiriendome a cada pasaje. la velocidad en si es buena, es la màs correcta, pero hay compases en los que se requieren màs sentimiento por asì llamarlo, no por salir de la velocidad tempo establecida desde un principio quiere decir que està mal interpretada la pieza
This is definitely one one of my favorite videos on youtube...you are amazing...I have been taking lessons for almost 2 months now...I can't wait until I am able to play as lovely as you do!! : )
I'm working on this piece, so I'm microanalyzing...... please delete my comment if you don't like it - I won't be hurt.
I hold the Van Cliburn recording of this piece as the "Gold Standand", so I strive to emulate it. I prefer his mild use of tempo rubato and his gentle interpretation of the melody from the LH to the RH.
Also, VC's recording is distinct in the subtlety of the staccato on page 3. You might also like his dynamics in this recording..... very evocative and dreamlike.
So beautiful! My Brother in law played DeBussy music when I was a young girl which brought it with so much emotion that I will never stop loving these pieces!!
I believe that it's very refreshing to hear this piece played a bit up tempo, and this is a beautiful interpretation. Both of your versions are, this one inparticular because I think you still tell the same story that Debussy intended while telling it in a different way. Innovative, fresh, origional and very, very well played. Bravo and Encore!!
i think its too fast too.. the metric doesnt go with the period of debussy.. the way to write this pieces was metric cos its the right way to write a piece no? but the way to play it is not metric its more.. Mmm feeling? i dont know.. but you played it good ^^
i must say you did a fantastic job, being a pianist myself.
but i also must say that "andantino sans lenteur" (without dragging)does not mean play as fast as possible. Yes, Debussy loved expression but you lose it with your speed.
slow it down a little and you have a killer track =)
Although you played the piece wonderfully, an important aspect of impressionist era compositions was the pauses. If you do not slow down, you miss the point of the music almost entirely. Regardless, you are still a magnificent pianist and I enjoyed the video.
I continue to be surprised that so many reviewers do not note the (compare with version II) comment in the title of the posting. version II is in response to comments on the more rapid pace this first version.
perfect tempo and dynamics. I used this as an example and I just finished the song. Thanks. I personally like it better than the slower version. I feel like this version engages the audience more rather than put them to sleep. But both versions are beautiful regardless.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
way way waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay 2 fast.slow it down at the beginning. your playing it to fast so you can't get the feel of the dream. its an absolutley beautiful piece please don't reck it. cheers
shouldn't forgot it is not chopin, but Debussy. its impressionism, not romanticism, it's the clime what matters more than the melody. i think he did it excellent.
ok, overall it's pretty good but you really have to mind the dynamics!!!!! It sounded really monotone and places where you should of really brought it out, you didn't. also what happened to the half notes on bar 63?? You played them quarter notes...as everyone is saying, it is a little fast, which is ok if that's how you like it, however, you sped up from the beginning tempo so be careful!
You do play well. I must admit that I only found out about Debussy because of Twilight. But since then he has become a serious competitor for my favorite piano composer (Chopin beware!). Great job, keep it up.
I listened to the 2nd version and actually prefer this one. It doesn't sound too fast to me. It seems just right. I am using this version as my example as I practice.
my god sir....Debussy would be proud that his music could be reproduced so exactly...and i am happy that i could have heard a recreation of a legend!!! thank you for that.
Nicely done. In this age of electronics it's wonderful to see what hands-on practice can achieve. Even turning the sheet music at a natural break is something to onsider. Nice tone, lovely.
I'm currently working on learning how to play this piece. You really captured the flow and mood of the piece. I hope I can play just as well. It was beautiful.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
From my personal opinion this work needs a bit more expresion 'cause it sounds a bit mechanizised and with poor expresion....playing the piano is not only pushing keys...it's abou expression....
my gosh, i envy you.. i would LOVE to play like that. I love the sound of the piano.. its so relaxing. ^_^ and you play so well! i took piano lessons when i was younger, but never learned to play especially well. i can play a few songs, and read basic music, but no more. and what i CAN do and read is out of practice and rusty.. i'm so jealous. lol ^_^ beautiful...
I think I must make a comment. I welcome critical comments, such as "You rush too much...".... It was in fact in response to such comments that I recorded a version II of this piece, and suggest in the title that the two performance be compared. isteveisquared does not indicate whether he listened to this second recording. The declining civility of subsequent comments is unfortunate, and I think inappropriate.
Unpleasant commentators? The comment function serves the purpose of letting viewers express their opinions. I had just done so. your comment was unpleasant in the fact that you were complaining. hypocrit.
i want all those allknowing unpleasant commentators to post the videos of their versions so that we can compare. if,not, then shut up, eff off and let the music roll. comprendo?
..Too rushed for my taste. Also too rigid. Debussy needs to breath and sigh. The end of phrases need to have a small moment of extra time before you begin another phrase.

This is one of my favorite pieces and I did my school project on it. I started it last year but had to postpone because my hand was too small! Thank you for posting! :)
well I think most of the players, playing it too slow, I like this version very much, because there's enough "dreamy" effect by just the melody, no need to push by playing it too slow.
This was really good! I'm playing this song for a contest and I was just seeing how other people played. I play this a lot slower than you just did so I'm going to work on the speed =P
This is the correct tempo for Reverie. In my opinion, I like it slower. But the tempo that Debussy has, it is meant to go faster than you would think.

well I think most of the players, playing it too slow, I like this version very much, because there's enough "dreamy" effect by just the melody, no need to push by playing it too slow.

you're playing it a little fast cause its spposed to be kind of dreamy. its a nice song to play though

On the rain drop section where the melody comes back in slow it down and make it sound like it is trickling. Really bring out that melody.

That's possible! I discoverder this music in "Gran Turismo 4"! However this is not this version! In that game this is a duet Piano/Violoncello.

This was really good! I'm playing this song for a contest and I was just seeing how other people played. I play this a lot slower than you just did so I'm going to work on the speed =P

outstanding job! i am working on the same piece, and this is such an inspiration! beautifully played. well done, well done.
what i've heared from this is more piecy, but mhmm not to critisise because it was beautiful, is to just let the piece breathe a bit more.
