Beautiful! I like this piece and the way you play Chopin.

@kumagaimegumi Thanks for watching!

great job on the dynamics! unlike other people who play this piece who completely ignores them and just play however they feel or think they should. fine if they composed it but CHOPIN did!!! FOLLOW THE FREAKING DYNAMIC SINGS!!! there are reasons why they are there!!!

OH MY GOD.. wtf is this? first of all you go too fast especially at the second page.. it is a waltz you know and that means you have to take it a bit slower!! at the end you so beap killed it. when I play the piano, I enjoy it, and have fun with it, also at concerts because I love it.. when you finished you should not have let your hand that way over the piano.. it looked to me that you hate the piano and it is boring for you!! SO GIVE UP!! you have to respect the piano! GGIVEE UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Good job Anand, glad to see you've kept up with the playing. This is Vishnu, your junior at IITK. :) Is this a practice room at your university? Our practice rooms have pianos that aren't half as good as the one you're playing in this video.. so I ended up buying an upright piano (not very good either but it does the job). Keep up the good work!

[anandramanathan]

@liszt85 Hi Vishnu, Good to see you here. This is a practice room at the university. The pianos are generally good. This was probably one of the best.

You play measure 13 and every repeating measure in the song wrong. That F, the low one before you jump the octave, is a tied note. It's slurred AND tied. You don't double it. You hold it.

[anandramanathan]

@RizOMG My sheet music agrees with what you say. I've heard different versions of that and chose this particular way because I liked it. Thanks for the comment.

[tsvasu5]

very nice interpretation and well played. Just curious for how many years you've been playing piano?? How long did it take for you to play this piece so well? i really enjoyed listening this B minor waltz. 5/5

[anandramanathan]

@tsvasu5 Thanks for your comment. I've been playing for the last 11 years (That sounds so long!). This piece has gotten better over time. It sinks in and one sees new things in it.

I learned the piece first on a keyboard (without even weighted keys!). When I switched to playing on a piano, I spent a few months re-learning this piece (my first version of this in 2006). Over time, my technique improved and I revisited this piece, recording this version in 2009.

Thanks for listening.

Anand

Gud, Gud ... :)

I see that you're playing the urtex

[anandramanathan]

I was not sure what version it was, but it was good nevertheless. Thanks for letting me know.

[anandramanathan]

Good luck with it.

[doelman]

I like it. I'm learning this piece too!

[doelman]

@pianomasterplayer If you really are a piano master player you shouldn´t act so childish.

[pianomasterplayer]

@doelman ... go beap your self!! If you only had a clue of what music is... you wouldn't talk

since I have been a teacher for over than 20 years and I also have played with the most known musisians in the world I know what is right and what isn't.... so shut up!!

[doelman]

@pianomasterplayer dude.

[LenaSilaeva]

круто!!!молодец чувак!))))))

[anandramanathan]

Thank you!!

[milloselmejor]

I liked the other angle better.

[anandramanathan]

When making the video, I didn't realize how important the angle was in being able to see the keys. Sorry about that.

[cmariamagda]

Wonderful!5*****

[anandramanathan]

Thanks

That was beautifully executed (it would be lovely to have your name) I enjoyed it so much that I have archived it in my future projects playlist for further reference..

In tune
