  • you have very good techique i want to see to play mozart piano concerto 21 the allegro

  • You put much emotion and head-bobbling in while there are still so many wrong notes.. slow down and try to make your playing perfect before you play it "up to speed!"

  • assholes

  • there are fake notes!

  • there are some fke notes in the left hand in the 15 second, please check them, and the last chord before the chromatic scale of the left hand is wrong also. at 1:40 there are more mistakes in the left hand. i suggest you to reviw it all the piece again, cause if you become profesional, you have to know the piece perfectly, and that not only involves the notes, but the dynamics you are not doing too

  • Amazing ! :P

  • You have a fantastic talent but you play way way way too fast.

  • @theepsilon2010

    agree.

  • I cried with emotion because of this. Fuck puberty... :@

  • terrific, huge talent you got!

  • good musicianship is all not about playing well but also to have good heart and respect another musician. Good or bad we dont criticize but encourage. nobody says we have to upload perfect performance videos here. if you are a musician and you fail to see this boy's talent but rant more about how bad he is, shame on you.

  • easy

  • Fantaisie Indiantu

  • @omguanyin lol dude.. that was mean

  • All of you who are heavily critisizing this kid need to really think. He is only a child and most of you who are throwing out hard accusations, ask yourself, can you even play this good? When he is older he will greatly surpass many great pianists. So next time you want to act all tough and completely tear down true talent, why dont you think before you speak. Thank you.

  • 1) Tune your piano

    2) Practice the allegro agitato sections more before you speed up

    3) Play the correct notes in the easy mid section

  • Comment removed

  • AND! the way you move your head is really doesn't really compensate your lack of emotion and/or passion ...it actually looks too fake

  • i don't give a fuck if you are 4 or 20 years old...

    you may be very talented and w/e the fuck you want to be called BUT this one sucks

  • @juiceforjoe HES 8! i cant play this, im 15! my fingers cant position themselves to full pace.

  • good 

  • Vas muy rápido y no la has estudiado como es debido y no tocas las notas que son.

  • your piano needs tuning xD

  • u should practise MUCH more before putting such a terrible display of this beautiful piece.

    this vid is a total disgrace to chopin

  • @anonymous176932 dude he's like eight give him a fucking break

  • How old is he?

  • HORRIBLE

    THATS NOT CHOPIN...

    ITS FANTASIE IMPOMPTU BY BEN NOT BY CHOPIN...

  • @Sashomei

    i wanna see u :)

  • holy sh*t! my fingers cant move that fast.

  • your piano tuned?

    A lot of wrong notes!!

  • Comment removed

  • Very good Meiestro

    

  • I can't imagine how one would begin to try learning this song

  • @tarjr94 its easy but you will need allot of time and practice tho

  • @jwilliams575 no its not easy. wtf?

  • @jwilliams575 i can play this

  • amazing job. wish I could play like this lmao

  • Very nice, but you should try a bit slower. Choose a tempo in tune with your skill. Concentrate in the music, the sound, the harmony, the beauty of this wonderful piece, and not in showing off yourself. You will make much more beautiful music. Play it in a very lower tempo till every note is clearly heared. Only then, start increasing the speed.

  • Get your left hand steadier, your right hand was OK just work on getting the notes right. Get your fingers over the keys in a steady arch for speed over the keys. Honestly the Largo section needed more pedal.

  • Congratulations you can play what I cannot yet, I have got chopins 24 preludes down and number 8 op 28 being the hardest of the two, finally and I find this rather young pianist to be ammusing. You really should have that thing tuned though, and I agree even is a goal to set out for, but otherwise than that well done.

  • Bit sloppy.

  • nice job, bro.

  • de la verga!!!

  • tempro is out !!!! try harder!!!! nice vid

  • i notice how on the left hand you dont play some notes! and you need to clean it more... im guessing you can play this better since its been a long time! good job though! you are amazing!!

  • argggg, okay get your piano tuned first...

    then work on the quality

    i hate to critisize but your quality is actually really crappy =/

    keep working on it though

  • you're being harsh on him, it's just fun learning high level piece of music... Well done mate, no matter how many mistakes there are that's just great cause it takes a lot of time learning it and you really have to want it bad to go through it all!

  • nightmare

  • O tocaba mal o el piano estaba bien desafinado

  • that's horrific. i'm sorry but you should be more precise with your playing. the opening section is all about being precise. that's what creates the crisp and the eerily dreaming effect.

  • in fact guys see you play this song knows your a master i think that was some of them are so hard with you ..good job

  • Needs work

  • As previously mentioned,It is ALWAYS better to play an easier composition with the quality of 100 than to play a harder composition (Fantasy Impromptu op.66) with a quality of 55(or less).

    And the more you continue following this method,the more you will be going towards the wrong direction.

    Don't you like Chopin 51 Mazurkas or the24 Preludes?

    I love them.

    Quality is always the most important concept in everything in the world!

  • @The55555SSSSS this is very true, as i have recently discovered. i'm 14 and venturing into beethoven and other famous composers. this is great advice!

  • I'm sorry to say, but this is weird. :S

  • May i ask - ?

  • You have composed your own version of Fantasie impromptu. The half notes doesn't exist in the real work. Horrible.

  • @apodots Do you realize how incredible difficult this piece is to play? You are a worthless peice of musical shit to have made such a rediculous comment to Ben. I hope your fingers get cut off and you never get to play again, then we'll be able to say "horrible."

  • @ryry617 He says the truth tho. He lacks technique to play this. I wouldn't dare recording this without knowing i wouldn't do so many mistakes.

  • VERY GOOD BEN!!!! I ENJOY THIS WORK OF CHOPIN!!! THANK YOU!! <3

  • instead of doing all that theatre, thing about doing WELL the piece.

  • Even though you show a lot of potential, it's best if you practice then show us what you got.

    Listening to this, I feel like you're saying, "This is too hard. Here's where I've gotten so far. On to the next piece."

    I admit this is a difficult piece; I've seen it myself. I know people that have taken months learning this in order to perfect such a masterpiece.

    Please don't disgrace Chopin with shoddy performance. No offense. Just practice then perform the real deal.

  • Really nice!

  • use the pedal!?!?! >.>

  • BRAVO! you tackled the piece in a form that much pros wouldn't dare to. don't mind all those creeps telling you to enhance your performance in their comments, they're just jealous.

    chopin would probably give you a handshake if he heard you playing this in your age, and so do I. congratulations

  • @migas28 Don't be silly!!! This performance is a starting point for more practice, nothing more than that. He got through it and he will probably do better like now maybe, 2+ years later? Because this was not a good performance and you know it if you have played piano some years yourself.

  • @SquealingGucciPiggy I have, and I happen to think that this is pure talent, and that was what I was trying to convey in my comment.

  • @migas28 No disrespect, honestly, but then I think you should listen a bit more to classical piano master pieces and good pianists. I´m not saying this boy is bad, but his performance sounds like the very first time he ever got through the entire piece.. at best.

  • @SquealingGucciPiggy I listen to a WIDE variety of piano master pieces, played by many good pianists for your information. and when I said "pros" in my first comment I was referring to people who play the piano well. of course you can't compare this kid to legendary pianists, but you gotta give credit where it's due, and if you don't support new talent, well, then... I don't know what to say to you.

    if you prefer flawless pianists, by all means, there are hundreds of videos of them in youtube

  • @migas28 "you tackled the piece in a form that much pros wouldn't dare to"? then you call all persons criticizing the performance creeps? do you honestly mean that? have a look at Kyle Landry for example, playing in his boy's room at home: /watch?v=saof7FN_cwk

  • @SquealingGucciPiggy yes, I call creeps to everyone who disregards the talent of this boy. I've watched Kyle Landry's performance and i personally don't like his interpretation of Fantaisie-Impromptu (or Prélude 4, for that matter). I have nothing more to say to you, except repeating that if you want perfect pianists, go look for them and comment on their videos

  • @migas28 I have nothing more to say to you either, apart from the fact that I completely disagree with you and that any piano player or lover can hear that he was very rushed to upload this before practicing properly and he should work on the constructive feedback given in some of the comments. Several notes in the very easy largo section are even wrong migas28

  • crazy\

  • U are really talented. Keep up the practise and everything. Very nicely done.

  • horrible, please practice more.

  • @mvs13I2 Yeah he's not horrible but PLEASE PRACTICE a little more and DO NOT rush.

  • this was not hte best interpretation but who cares xD he is so young and even better then me :D

    ITS GREAT

  • Stop acting like you're better then him... I think he's awesome!

  • i thought you were good until about :23 you need to work on the right hand, and i dont think its a problem of dexterity its a problem of studying the music, so you study and you will be much better because you are fully capable of playing this piece:)

  • The right hand is pretty sloppy on this one. Slow down and get your piano tuned.

  • music teacher for 30 yrs. BRAVO

  • I love how there are some comments admiring his playing, and some comments totally denouncing his playing...

  • You played the whole piece really well, but from 0:25-0:45 you're playing the two notes between the octaves as acciaccaturas, or even as chords! Please don't it's lazy!

  • What a disgrace! Playing like a fucking robot! No soul no nothing. Speed isn't what makes you a good piano player.

    One last thing: your piano is out of tune!

  • @rest47777 hah wtf chill bitch this kid is like 9!!! Chopin would call you a faggot.

  • what the hell r u doing?! what do u think what that is? different version? i dont think thats fantasie impromptu

  • people are so critical. that was epic any way you look at it. i would LOVE to see ANY one of these people play what this kid does. *at a younger age*, mind you. assholes.

  • A ton of kids do lol

  • i wasn't saying this kid is the only one that could do it, i was making a point about people being critical about stuff like this. i don't doubt that there are plenty of kids who can play this. just don't go beyond "constructive criticism" and flat out insult the kid.

  • so sloppy = =

  • Back for another listen. Absolutely beautiful Ben. Happy New Years to you. This is one of your best.

  • out of tune but other than that, fantastic

  • truly amazing keep it up

  • oh my g he is good....so good

  • OMG, that piano is ugly! so sad...

  • I think its just the camera

  • Amazing Ben.. You are truly a prodigy and I wish you nothing but the best. I adore listening to you play and I hope to hear much more!

  • give him a break. he's 12. i think it's amazing.

  • i dont think your hands are big enough for this song yet, and i didnt hear any pedal, but at least you know your notes, its just that your hands cant reach all of them, but chopin's hands were abnormally large so its okay.

  • Actually, Chopin didn't have abnormally large hands. :p

  • it sure looks like it in his music, 13ths require pretty big hands :) but maybe he was just awesome and found out lol way to do it

  • you piano needs tuning

  • I think to it's too difficult for you but very good

  • Wow Ben. I know you are great. But i did not know you're this great. How'd you play in such manner?

    Professional. @-)

  • yeah pedal might add alot 2 it if u werent using it.

  • did you use the pedal?

  • Really enjoyed watching! Thankyou and keep going;-) greetings from Germany

  • Ben your talent is SO AMAZING. I wish I could play as good as you. Really love the sound of the paino being played. *****'s my friend enjoyed my listening.

  • I can tell from the music itself that this song is pretty hard. And this young man can play it far better than most 20 year olds.

    I myself am trying to memorize the keys so that I can have a running start at learning to play the songs.

    I am 15 and can only master twinkle twinkle little star. My mother plans to get me a piano (at least an electric keyboard) to play on...Piano has run through her family for years, and I'm the only one who doesn't know how to play...

  • very very good

  • es una version improvisada o modificada?

  • um...its ok lik i mean great work and all but its not really up 2 scratch maybe more practise...........

  • ugh you're pretty good for the time you've invested in it but this is not a good version of fantasie impromptu. We can't expect you to have good interpretations at an age so young though, so good job. Oh and your sheet music might be incorrect in a few places.

  • For someone who is 12, and has had around 5 years of piano, this is very impressive.

    Amaaaaaaaaaaazing!

  • terrible? don't you think your over exaggerating, or were you just trying to be mean? you fail at constructive criticism,

  • you are fantastic!!!! how old are you?

  • Absolutly awesome, you error are only details.

    nice. Keep playing

  • amazing :]

  • nice effort keep practicing and you'll have something amazing

  • you need to tune your piano and get a new yamaha grand!!!

  • Many Kisses to you my Sweet Darlings. And Once again hats off and many roses for you! Muuuaaahhh... take care always and God bless! ;)

  • you playd alot of wrong notes bu otherwise it was good ;)

  • nice attempt...try to end ur phrases nicely, too technical at de moment...

  • well i don't think he have talent now .. he HAVE talant .. dis is just amazing ... and look him .. he isn't a adult yet .. how will he play than ? a master he will be .. great Ben .. great.... on what age you started playing piano my friend :) ?

    your fan Dennis ;) haha

  • super la music de chopin Fantasie Impromptu continue comme ça bravo !!!!!

  • Great my friend 5*****

    Claude

  • WOW

    Amazing

    I was literally sitting with my mouth open.

  • Muy bien, sigue adelante, me gusto mucho , felicidades chico.

  • how long have you played, my friend has played for 7 years, and can play this song, but something about his seems more artful, and he dosent even try when he plays, he said this song is a verys easy song

  • it is

  • expressive but watch out for notes

    and the tempo's a bit uneven, even for rubato

  • hey ben how long do you play the piano, i think you have much talent.

  • too fast..

  • the tempo is the corret tempo :S :S :S

  • how do you know?

    the pianist can play it whatever he/she wants.

    in this case os too fast...but he still playing well

  • not at all

  • Bravo B

  • Beautiful Ben!!!

  • DevilSinz86 (

    Lets see you then

  • HPIracing111

    Who the hell do you think you are ?

  • this fucking sucks..... Many mistakes not clear... i can do better.

  • Give him a break...he's like 10.

  • HPIracing111

    OH Yeah! lets see you do better then !

    Leave little Ben alone he is brilliant !!

    Those who can do ,those who cant criticize

  • dont even get me started buddy haha

  • I'm currently learning this piece, and I have to say, this is extremely tough to learn. It's like having your left brain and your right brain play different pieces at the same time while ignoring each-other at the same time. I hope to have this piece on my YouTube channel one day. For now, I'd like to say thank you for giving me the inspiration to keep practicing this (extremely annoying and tedious) piece....well mainly in the beginning. The middle doesn't sound that bad to practice. :P

  • your description of this song was basically spot on. haha

  • i heard mistakes and u didnt use enough pedal and U NEED TO USE MORE DYNAMICS!!! gosh all of these people post videos of themselves thinking they are soo good for being able to play a difficult piece but they dont use dynamics so they arent actually that good.

  • Eh? His dynamics are fine, and his phrasing is gorgeous. And he's only 12 (I think?), so some mistakes are understandable. The only advice I can give is for him to make less unnecessary movements with his right  arm. Doubt you could do any better HPIracing.

  • Man You Are Very good, great job. How old are you?lol

  • Geez, how old are you...? Watching vids like that make it look that easy.

  • Wow! Outstanding job! Keep on going!

  • Your fingers were flying and dancing like butterflies in a garden during a sunny day,

    with the grace and elegance of a ballerina.

    That was Great !!

    Batista.

  • damn dude u got talent

  • How did you learn this song?

    You only went to piano school for 1 1/2 year!!

    YOU ARE AMAZING, FUN AND FULL OF LIFE,

    I listen to you every day, I love your own compositions, especially 'The last dance of a butterfly, and the Rock Boogie woogie,and to Mary.

    keep playing and enjoying life !

    Thanks, Batista.

  • Ben, one astounding thing about you is the STRENGTH of your hands at your age. Do you work out with weights?

    Bests regards,

    Memphis Piano Joe
