@Pingus175 ~Thank you. I have been critiscised for pulling back a little between sections, but that was really to bring out the bass notes which are rather weak on my piano!
@musicgirl857994 Thank you - and the very best of luck for the exam. I suggest you listen to as many performances as you can, and take the best features of each for your own!
That's great sounding. How much practice did it take. It seems to me that you are very skilled pianist. How long have you been playing piano. I am practicing that song. You played it great though . It's a lot faster than I thought it was.
@shark2235 Thank you very much - sorry about the sound quality, which is better on my more recent videos. I have played for over 45 years, but first learned this piece when I was a teenager. Good luck with your study of the piece!
@pondwatcher Thank you for that. I can't remember why I did what I did, but if the touch of your piano suits, I think the 'cuckoos' would work fine staccato.
@MegapPlayer Either you need to do a lot of practice especially to play this piece, or (better) play lots of other music and studies so that your fingers are ready to learn and play this without too much specific work.
i love all of your performances! whenever i want to hear how to play a piece correctly and with feeling, i always come to your channel. sure, it's great that a 4 year old may be able to play the notes with a semblance of rhythm, but they can't master the emotion or technique that a more mature player is able to.
@brokenlock037 Thanks very much for your kind comment. Of course I can't guarantee that the odd wrong note or (worse) rhythmic misreading might not creep into my videos, but I try my best - especially with little-known music which maybe I am giving its first ever chance to be heard in the 21st century!
@electromoo its possible that he learnt it when he was eight noone knows, so dont tkink you are better than him, maybe he wanna show people how to play this piece so others can learn how to play it correct like he does
@sockmonkeyzruleXD Thank you very much for your comments. I wish you luck with your study of the piece! I am not famous because I never had any 'lucky break', and never won any piano competitions or prizes. Also, anything I can do, a lot of other pianists could do if only they had time to learn the little-known repertoire I play.
@andreagwlo It took me a couple of hours to get ready for the video - but I had learned it when I was around 12, when I would have taken much longer over it!
What do you think of playing the "cou cou"-s as staccato-tenuto rather than legato? Do you agree that it makes the motive sound closer to the naturally produced cou-cou it is inspired by? That is what I think.
@PSearPianist Indeed, it sounds very legato! However, should perhaps the cou cou-s that move upwards (seconds 18-22 in the video) be played legato? My scores suggest so, however, my copy has been revised by a modern pianist. You don't happen to have access to scores closer to the original, do you?
omg sir you need to please be my piano instructor. you are soo talented. Ive been playing piano for four years and i really wish i started when i was little but i hope to become harvard material in the next year. lol
@gbombb22 Thank you! Alas I do not teach piano, but there are lots of teachers out there. If it is any encouragement to you, there is a guy playing piano in the upcoming ' Britain's Got Talent ' final who has only been playing for four years. I have to say, I was not very impressed by him - but then I have never made a big show like that!
@0xXxXfactorXxXx0 Not really. If I had one, I would get someone in to fix it as soon as possible, and I would play my electric piano while I was waiting for the repair!
I know this probably sounds wierd, because I can play this song well, but I can't turn the pages! Whenever there is a page turn I have to do an awkward pause and it ruins my whole song. Thumbs up if you agree!
@guggle690 Well, because I am bad at memorizing, I probably spend as much time on organising the page turns as I do for learning the music I play on this channel. The edition of this piece that I use has the page turn at quite a convenient place. I always turn up the corners at the bottom of the pages to make the turns easier. Good page turning is something that comes with a lot of practice, and there are some accompanists out there who make the page turning process part of their 'act'.
@freyalovemiley Well, I've been playing for a long time. Alas I am (and would look) too old to appear in any competition! I wish you luck in the events - when you play just imagine you are providing what you would want to hear were you sitting in the audience.
I used to play this piece as a kid, and i went on to have an obsession with some major french composers, namely Debussy & Ravel. Whilst at uni i thought, i know i can play technically, but i can't seem to always read and play when it gets really tricky. The answer was to composer my own hommage to Debussy. I hope this inspires any other children out there learning the piano today. enjoy! (i've created a video response called "Ballade Des Cascades"
@PSearPianist only that the earliest french composer that i personally came to realise through my piano playing was Daquin. I am merely reminiscing, and i always thought it interesting that most of the french composers that i know and love are very much from the 19th/20th century. Thank you
@ala0ngr I have done that - someone has put a recording on YouTube. It is interesting to hear it, and to note that at around 0:46 (on the recording, not my performance) they pull back slightly between sections to make the bass project clearly - exactly what I do on my video, and some viewers did not like!
@casutal I think that if you could memorize a piece after playing it once you would be a phenomenal memorizer. I can play a piece fifty times and still not memorize it. Some people will naturally remember a piece after working on it for a while without even thinking about the memory process.
Hello. Would you please listen to my composition? I have a composed a piece in a similar style to this and think you will be pleasantly surprised. My composition utilizes a variation on the main theme of this composition and is overall baroque in nature.
When you click on my name, it is the first upload on my channel "Baroque Rondeau by Christian Chuquihuara"
Please give me a thumbs up if you like it, or a thumbs down if you do not.
Thank you for taking the time to watch and listen to it.
@SizilianFreestyle2 Thanks for your kind comment. Of course there is no 'right's speed for this piece, as no-one knows how Daquin himself played it. I like it quite fast, but that's just my taste!
@PSearPianist : Of course I like it. I'm learning to play this sheet at the moment. I wish I can play as fast as you do. I have problems when trying to play fast :-(. You're so great :X
@alixandthemachine Well, I think you should play it at whatever speed allows you to express to an audience what you think the message of the music is.
I love your comment! I hope you got the homework done. Perhaps, after hearing some music (even mine!) you may have done it better than you would otherwise!
wow amazing! I really admire people who can play the piano so well... Indeed a piano virtuoso you are. I've been playing the piano, but I'm not goog in sightreading.. This piece is grade 6 in my book...This is so difficult. I wish I could see you some fast etudes of Chopin...
Thank you for your kind comments (both). I think this piece is actually grade 7 in the UK (I realised the other day that I had played it for my own G7 exam many years ago). I have played quite a few of the Chopin etudes - but they are 'played to death' by other pianists, including lots of performances on YouTube, and I'm not sure I have anything to new to add. There are some other fast studies and pieces played by me on this channel though!
Wow! I really admire those who can play the piano so amazingly well! Indeed a piano virtuoso you are! I've been playing the piano, but I'm not good in sightreading... considering that this piece is a Grade 6 piece in my piano pieces book... It will take me months to master this piece... just like what happen to my studying of Mozart's Rondo alla Turca... Very Good! I'm looking forward to see more of your videos.
wow. excellent! this is a hard song, i have the sheets. it's just that i am having a hard time sight reading and counting at the same time. any advice on howto improve sight reading skills? thak you!
Thank you. I am not a teacher, but the only advice on sightreading I can give is: do lots of it, in different styles of music, and listen to recordings (easy to do these days) so you are doing a combination of sightreading and playing by ear when you learn new pieces.
@PSearPianist ok. thanks for the advice. i am really having a hard time. maybe because i started taking up formal training when i turned eighteen. well, thanks again! :)
nailed the page turn! :p great performance! in my opinion the tempo is spot on, possibly a tad faster in the mind of daquin.

wow amazing! I really admire people who can play the piano so well... Indeed a piano virtuoso you are. I've been playing the piano, but I'm not goog in sightreading.. This piece is grade 6 in my book...This is so difficult. I wish I could see you some fast etudes of Chopin...

Thank you for your kind comments (both). I think this piece is actually grade 7 in the UK (I realised the other day that I had played it for my own G7 exam many years ago). I have played quite a few of the Chopin etudes - but they are 'played to death' by other pianists, including lots of performances on YouTube, and I'm not sure I have anything to new to add. There are some other fast studies and pieces played by me on this channel though!

Wow! I really admire those who can play the piano so amazingly well! Indeed a piano virtuoso you are! I've been playing the piano, but I'm not good in sightreading... considering that this piece is a Grade 6 piece in my piano pieces book... It will take me months to master this piece... just like what happen to my studying of Mozart's Rondo alla Turca... Very Good! I'm looking forward to see more of your videos.

Thank you. I am not a teacher, but the only advice on sightreading I can give is: do lots of it, in different styles of music, and listen to recordings (easy to do these days) so you are doing a combination of sightreading and playing by ear when you learn new pieces.

I love playing it fast although I can hardly keep on the pace over the few bars with semiquavers on the left hand but I keep on training ...ah,ah....

Piano practice takes a lot of self-discipline. Never be satisfied with second-best! Good luck with your work on this piece.
