you have the keys memorized... thats about it.. nocturne is supposed to have a very delicate beginning and then get progressively faster. calm way down and feel the emotion, get into it, don't just slam the memorized keys... noob
Your piano may be out of tune and your skills may not be master level, but you obviously have put a lot of time into learning this and I can tell you love it. Nice job.
your mic does not do your piano justice, or its treble is just overwhelming. either way good interpretation of op. 72 people are saying it's too fast because it is difficult to communicate the subtle dynamics of this piece when rushed. but you definitely have the chops 5 stars.
if you think slower is boring, then play beethoven or rachmaninov or something else. Listen how Rubinstain plays this nocturne. I listen to Rubinstein version and i listen to your version and yours is insulting. That is not a nocturne, that is definitely not chopin. Sorry!
The left hand melody should be legato and smooth ! Please notice the background and reason that Chopin compose this piece , he is on the way home on a boat , it is soft and song like ! I am just an amateur piano player , please don't mind my suggestion !
@gianpa Sir, I agree with you. If you play slower, it will lose the attention of the listener. Every piece must keep the listener moving. If you play it slow(er), you will lose the attention and the melodic lines. Well done, now all we need is a Steinway D
Good playing technically and I enjoyed listening very much. Try a slower tempo and a softer left hand on some parts. I also noticed, it could be the upright piano that makes it a little harder to make a smooth sound. My piano is an extremely bright JAZZ piano and I play classical on it, so you can imagine how bad some peices sound on it!
One thing's for sure, dude, I don't like your version; but you're right, the left hand is not that fast, it's just unbearably loud. the whole piece, barring a few moments, sounds too loud (kinda forte, & unless I'm mastaken, this is supposed to be piano...)
anyway your trills are good, your technique on the right hand is okay, it's the left hand that notably falls short of expectations.
Oh my god. slowwwwwwwwww dowwwwwwwwwwwwn. this is not a race. This is a nocturne. I'll upload my version soonish. slowwwwwwww dowwwwwwwwwwn. I repeat: slowwwwwwwww dowwwwwwwwwwwwn. Listen more to the great masters playing it. The left hand is slower, very soft & delicate sounding.
mmm I checked on the score and it says "andante (69)" and it's just how I play it... I play it slower but not faster. Anyways it may be faster than you like it but it's not like "oh my god! this is super fast! slow down!"... I listened a lot of "great masters" that play this one faster than me...
Overall, the dynamic is much too loud for what is marked in the score (it shouldn't really open up until about the third page), and there are a couple of rhythmic mistakes, but your trills are really good and it was a nice performance. I'd suggest to try having a little bit of a lighter touch at the beginning.
I wouldn't say that you're "not that good" either, you definitely have talent that could be developed
hey man nice job! if you love chopin nocturnes you should try his most famous one op. 9 no 2, you should check out my nocturne i played in my videos and tell me what you think...keep up the good work
I know it's out of tune, but i don't play it very much so I don't feel like I have to spend money on it. I'm not that good and that's not that hard, just download sheetmusic (old music doesn't have copyright, just try on www.sheetmusicarchive.net) and try really hard ;)
wow.. that was really.. good.... i don't know if i'd ever be able to play the faster parts the way you did w/o panicking... lol. gj, you owned that piece.
I know i didnt do well on Fue El;ise but i don't feel like getting n e better at it cuz im like egtting sick of that song...so ya idc what ppl think of it ...its my best...well moonlight sonata is my best...watch that if you want...lol
lol it's funny the way you use the left hand to get the right hand nineths (c'mon it's not that far, you can do it! but if you just can't it's ok). This one was better than fur elise but, apart from the errors, one thing I don't like is dynamic. You should work on it. It's all supposed to be pianissimo and the "tam-dadam" thing should come out of the pianissimo (you do quite the contrary). And i don't understand why you speed up in the and...
Well i don't play that well cuz im only 14 and just started like not even a year ago ...so im a beginer..and i only started moonlight sonata in like oct. and finished the last day of 2OO5 [i wanted to finish b4 the new year...lol] ya so i know if get better ...cuz i knwo i'll be playing piano for the rest of my life...

No, I love the way it's played.
Slow is nice too, but it doesn't need to be played so traditionally. Sometimes, it's better to think outside of the box.
Nicely done. I've fallen in love with this piece.

slower is more beautiful and it gives a listener a sense he's hearing a nocturne instead of something like a waltz etc.

@gianpa No, slower is not boring. Just feel the emotion and you`ll find out that Andante is the best tempo of such a nocturne.

Alot of it might be that piano too. Of course, I agree, he does play it pretty fast lacking dynamics, but eh, we're not all Horowitz, right?
