ABRSM Piano Exam (2011&2012) Grade 8 C3 - King for a day

[TheBen2fly]

Another person playing this for grade 8 :D However I just want to know if anyone can give me any tips for doing the trill at the top of p2, or at 1:02 However much I play it I can't seem to get a handle on it. (Btw it's not a reach problem, I can get that easily) Any tips would be appreciate!

[chariswpy]

could you please tell me how often you practiced a day and how long did it take for you to master this piece? Because i really wanna know how long ill take till I'm done w perfecting this song. Thank so much! :)

Really nice playing yo!! I always pick the jazz piece for my exams X) Thanks for helping me hear what it really sounds like, coz my piano teacher has absolutely no jazz rhythm in her :P

[MCHOI1108]

oh god :O im playing this for my 13+ music scholarship in january and mine sounds nothing like yours

[AndySiew1994]

@MCHOI1108 how do you stretch 10 notes at a time?

[vibraphonics]

@AndySiew1994 Try spreading the notes quickly - from bottom to top - takes a bit of practice. Also, you can exercise your hands to stretch them by stretching as far as you can between 2 notes and then stretching a bit further.

[chocolatemilk663]

[SneverusSnapers]

Yep, this is the best version I can find & you can't listen on iTunes or anything because they don't have the piano version...

[naomiforever93]

Best version on youtube so far. Thank you for posting this =D

[lyne1026]

你大細聲做番好D會更好`彈得很穩很安全，但系就好似少左D咩感­情咁^^不過都好好，你今年考？？

[lyne1026]

@lyne1026 sorry 系：你明年考？

[alanchan1024]

I gave it a go today: rDu0_xSrPWM, not as lively as yours ..

[alanchan1024]

Very nice playing! I enjoy it very much. Nice to have the piece at tempo with the right feel. Just that the last RH octave is meant to be an octave higher i.e. reaching the top key of the piano! This piece is in my to-do list too... P.S. are you a teacher or student?
