  • i've just started this piece, and i really don't like the accidentals, it's well good though how you play it :)

  • great job! =)

  • Great!

  • I wanted to say "piece", but you know, I think in my language... Вы русская?

  • ¡Muy bien! Aunque debo de estar de acuerdo en que le pondrías más gracia si hicieras énfasis en los "dynamics" como dice el caballero. De igual modo, lo tocas muy, muy bien.... Thanks for the interpretatio of this wonderful peace!

  • i have to say it was very good but no where near perfection. mainly because i didn't hear ANY dynamics in this piece...you played forte the entire time. the ending of this piece was suppose to be pianissimo, then 2 diminuendos xDD but i guess, regardless of the dynamics....well done :o its a rly soft piece and there's only one section of forte.

  • Gee, check out Wolfgang Amadeus over here. She said she wasn't using it so is it really any surprise that every technical direction isn't represented?

  • excellent!!

    but i dont think i can pull it off in my exam..im 15 yrs old nd this peice is rele hard for me ;[

  • u dont do the repeats! AND I LOVE IT!!

    lol

  • mui bien

  • I think it is ok......

  • i played this when I had my schubert recital. cool. this piece sounds so old-fashioned. but still, ear-catching.. mmm..

  • It lacks feeling. very boring

  • some attention to dynamics would be nice and finger balancing to make the tune prominent

  • i'm learning this piece for my exam on the 16th september.

    you know the tempo is 88 beats per crotchet?

    well my piano teacher thinks each BAR is worth one beat... so she thinks 4 quavers are crammed into one beat, which is wrong (and nearly impossible)! i've tried telling her but she won't listen! lol

    anyway well done u played it well!

  • grr i hate the octave jumps

  • i play this song but Im not as good

  • kewl

  • Very good!!! That was fast. I'm trying to learn this song, but at 0.32 to 0.35 I always mess it up lol. Hopefully during the exam this song does not fail. How long did you take to perfect this?

  • Very nice!!! Excellent finger placement...and tempo- I tend to smack my fingers everywhere....Lack of skill lol.... Well...I suppose slowing down at 0:11-12 a little...i think it gives the piece more feeling 0.o..Ive heard many people play it that way... But very well played!!!

  • damn that was good....i struggled at this piece..but i managed to get thru it...also grade 7...and i started grade 8 now...

  • Any tactics to practice this song? Such as movement of the fingers? I've been trying it for 2 days but still cannot catch the feeling of playing this song.

  • A nice one!

  • I liked this, although I felt quite a lack of dynamics. But that may be because I just listened to Horowitz's version. :)

  • I am playing this for Grade 6, and I have just started this. I actually have a book full of Schubert for it though, which is harder to read. Do you suggest getting the ABRSM book for it and the other pieces?

    BTW, really, really good, you are obviously skilled COUGHMOZARTCOUGH.

    I struggle with the 0:10 - 0:14 bit, and 0:21 - 0:26.

  • Ahh, you're in the UK? Okay, you're probably right, because Europe, (especially Russia) have a much more advanced and harder piano grading system.

  • No,at the end of the syllabi, all the grading systems are virtually of the same difficulty.

  • Same difficulty, but higher expectations. This is because there is higher difficulty at the beginning, so pianists can play much better at the end.

  • OMG! U completely put me to shame and make me incredibly nervous for my grade 6 exam, tho thankz cuz i now realise how much work i need to put into it!!!! FAB x

  • Are you sure this is grade 6? I am playing it for grade 8.

  • That's wonderful!!! Unlike me... T^T

    I can't get the fingering...

  • Bravo!!

  • Hiya, Got Any Tips For The Fingering On The Thirds, I Can't Seem To Get Them!

    Doing This One, The Gigue And Rumba Toccata At The Mo =]

  • hiie nice playing! i wanted to try this piece but my teacher said tat it was hard. so i took the prelude. :D

  • Wow how do you hit those notes on the left hand jumps. I try for hours, but I still can't get it. Spectacular job!

  • The gigue is probably the hardest out of all pieces, and the rumba is my favourite! What mark did u get for ur exam??

  • Wow, you are really good! I'm doing my grade 6 in june or july, and im playing this, rumba toccata and the gigue.

  • Wow! You're good! I suck at this piece like hell man!

  • yes chopin and lizst had 12 keys but rachmaninov had 13 key spand!!

  • i am actualy playing it for 3 months and i have memorise it all!!!

    Just so you know i have an 12 key handspand and i am 10 years old!

  • wow im 13 i can barely hit 10

  • don't bother watching it, it's really bad and doesn't make a good reputation to little children.

  • yea... it's some really crappy cartoon about a talking pig (?!) i mean... it's a total waste of such a gd piece of music... i was like watching some kinda trailer or sth on tv in hk and the i was like wtf?

  • htis is the theme to a chinese cartoon!!!! i heard it at my music festival, and was like wtf???, why is a cartoon theme played at a grade 6 concert, me and my dad wre laughing bad

  • Hey!!! I did this for my grade 6 in May!! Nice one! What other pieces did you do?

    Its excellent, though I think you need more range in dynamics. I actually play this SLIGHTLY faster than you, which is different from what you have heard. You have really good articulation and it was an WONDERFUL performance.

  • hey! you play the piano EXTREMELY well!!!

    it's so nice how you layed it.

    and you uplaoded it on my birthday :D

    thanks!!

  • wow your talent doent end!! i am still trying to play the larghetto maestoso one!!

  • suzy you are AMAZING!!!!!

  • Wow .. I'm learning this piece right now and it seems like how I play is different sounding than how you play. It's probably I'm still playing it slowly.

  • did u try all the songs from the exam book?

  • Erm I don't think im taking it until the middle of 2008 cuz I'm too busy to do it in march and im not ready! But thanks.

  • Yes, I took my exam some time ago.

    The film does not have an English version, so I would advise against buying a copy unless you speak Cantonese.

  • This is really good!

    Did you know it was the theme tune to the Hong Kong cartoon/film McDull?

  • I am also playing this in my exam - it's so good. I love it.

  • I also play this piece and I think you play it very well! You're not playing it too fast, I have a recording of it from Schubert's greatest hits and it is played in 1min 44secs (including repeats!) although I suppose that IS a professional :D Keep up the good work!

  • I think it's good that you played it a bit faster than it's supposed to be (or at least that's what people are saying - haven't checked with a metronome!!!!), it shows you're expressing it in your own way!! great playing in my opinion!! :D

    I keep listening to all your pieces on here and I just have to comment on them because they're so good! haha!

  • way too fast, hardly no dynamics and expression, and you have no technique. stop rushing, the examiners will probably say its ''too rushed'' and plain . no offence:)

  • this sounds so coordinated. I am struggling with this piece for my grade 6. I find it demanding stylisticly and get all stressed out with it! I'm playing this tune, gigue and rumba tacotta for my pieces. Have u taken yr exam yet?

  • hehe i'm doing it for my grade 6 as well:]

    nice playing

  • Wow, nice playing! :)

    I'm doing this for my grade 6 right now. The hardest thing I think about this piece is getting the dynamics right though

  • Way too fast how do i know i play it and you haue to repet some parts!!!

  • Your supposed to repeat at some parts

  • This is really confusing; Moment Musical in F minor and Prelude in C Sharp Minor - those are both pieces also by Rachmaninoff ;)

    Nice playing though.

    Especially of the Prelude [other video =P]. I might well go out and buy some of these pieces, you make them sound really playable. =]

    However, I must say, Lancashire is far better. ;) OJ

  • Great playing!!

    I love this song!!!

  • your right, woO47, hated this piece, told me a long while. my teacher forced me to.

  • wow, he is great! thanks.

  • Very pleasant for ears, but I am using Beethoven allegro woo43, Melodie and Rumba Toccata, what do you think?
