Extremely impressive! That's not an easy arrangement by any stretch. And extremely good discipline on maintaining bearing and recovering from mistakes. I became more impressed the further it progressed in.
well ! it is very good that your son does play pieceslike this already ! well of course at this video he should practice some more but sure after 2 years later he is become much MUCH better ! impressive to see him play at this age Bach
the solfeggietto needs work. lol i'm just teasing, he has a lot of potential once his hands catch up to his playing level. i've been playing for years and i'm only now about to attempt the fugue. wish me luck >.>
Thanks for the encouragement, when he played this he was ten, his hands weren't big enough to hit an octave correctly. He loved the song and wanted to play it anyway!
this has some real talent! just keep practicing! your really good. I would suggest starting finger exercises. Hanon and Czerny(spelling?) have some really good piano finger exercises.
Thanks, his new piano teacher, just this week put him in an intense Czerny book. Lots of short finger exercises. His hands, when he attempted this were not quite large enough to hit octaves,so he slides off the edge of the keys to make it.
it really isn't that difficult when on piano. if you can play bach inventions than you could easily learn this too i think. but this was written for organ, and organ it is extremely difficult. I know people who have been working on it for like 2 years on organ and they are like in their 30's
HAHAHAHA I LOVED IT! Great job. The Nose was the best part! The first piece is really difficult and the fact you tried to put all 3 hands into 2 is great. Post more :)
Thanks for the comment jmie5. I looked every where for a decent rendition of the original organ piece. This is from France, by Isidore Philipp. It is so technically difficult, really it's too much for his small hands, (octave runs) but he worked on it on his own for about 3 months and he really wanted to do it, so here it is.
Whomever said "Stay slow" gave wonderful advice; it's easy to get caried away with the flow of the piece, I think. It's pretty choppy, yet wonderful overall. You have to remember that this piece was meant for the organ. This little guy is playing all these overlaying melodies with only two tiny hands and lacks pedals for his feet an organ would have. I was looking for someone brave enough to do a piano version; I'm so glad I found this. Great job, little man! Don't stop practicing this.
I love the antique piano and your playing also. The fugue is in fact not little in terms of its contrapuntal writing. Just one probnlem - don't rush.

Nice. But one problem, you move your wrists too much. Keep them still and the song will be easier to play.

Although I absolutely love the Fugue in G Minor and it was very well played and adapted, I preferred the Solfeggieto in C minor.
