  • what mazurka are you playing? i'm looking everywhere and i can't find it...i want to learn that piece

  • can you give a brief overview sometime of Chopin's harmonic style? any other aspects of his style? Thank you

  • @mymale2003 What other aspects are you looking for specifically? Also, what are you referring to when you say harmonic style? My first thoughts when I think of Chopin's harmony is his high use of chromaticism, and rich broken chords, as seen in almost all of his nocturnes. Is that what you are asking?

  • @mymale2003 Yes, that is basically what I was looking for. Since i am just starting out even though I can distinguish Beethoven, from Mozart, from Chopin, I cant explain or Identify what makes each so different. thanks

  • This is the absolute best explanation of rubato I've ever heard. I only heard about the timing, and leaning on the first note. My question has always been WHEN do I use it? Do I have to know theory in order to know that? Do you use them when playing up scales? It's done gradually, right? To practice rubato, do you think nocturnes are the best pieces to play since they are slower? I pretty much learned nothing except technique all my life, and now my music sounds too mechanical.

  • @ClassicalPianoRubato Thank you for all of your comments. Nocturnes are wonderful to learn this concept. The hard thing with Rubato is that there is no set way of doing things. It is subjective, and everyone feels it differently. However, one can always use the help of an instructor to feel a more "natural" sense of rubato. Feel free to email me with any specific questions about this. I'd be happy to explain more in depth for your specific needs.

  • That was great, thanks.

  • Dude, this is another AWESOME video! I would think that the two things you discussed in this video are extremely important for almost all other music. Your example of bel canto is amazing as you need to determine and bring out the true melody of the piece. Sure, you can play without using these two techniques, just exactly as the music is written but that takes away the emotion and human content of music. So, using these things could push you over other players and turn something into MUSIC.

  • what aspect of pedaling in Debussy's music?

  • It would also be awesome if you could do a video of the pedaling of Debussy. I'm sure myself and many others will appreciate that.

  • Thank you once again for the insight.
