Bach Before Breakfast : Fugue

[romymistique]

Nicely played! And I see you like watching Brainpop!

[SilenceTheQuiet]

YOU. MADE. MY. DAY. this was amazing! thnx for posting!!:)

[Pixel00PeaceAndLove]

Sorry, but I don't like this. Playing Bach is not only playing something with your hands. It means understand something that Bach wrote. You have an exellent tecnique (i don't know how to say it in english, sorry) and you play Listz very well, but not Bach.

[FarStarz]

@Pixel00PeaceAndLove Yeah, you need to understand Bach, yeah it's not just playing it with your hands. But seriously, how do you learn except by doing? Ever tried figuring out how the subject and countersubject work together without playing the fugue blindly a hundred times? Bach is fundamental to learning any composer; even if you don't play it very well (and here I disagree with your opinion on her playing), you can still learn by doing it.

Sorry for ranting, but this is important to me.

[anon0106]

Err.. just to say, this is tagged on classical when it is clearly baroque...

[PianoChick36]

No Bach. No breakfast.

[theeasybeats]

excellent.......

[starkey7uk]

How is she a "douchebag"?! She already has a good technique, all she now seeds to do is to shape the music and to bring the voices out.

[orchdork775]

haha just like pablo casals :D

[Hatsuharu87]

wow, bravA =)

[Liabellstichting]

This is very good! BRAVO good traning

[Liabellstichting]

This is very good!

[roxyhappi]

uhm.... How? the hell? is this possible?

[hoof2001]

Can you post a video of you tackling the Goldberg Variations? Would love to hear/see that :D Please???

[iPlayPiiano]

Damn I hate you.

All you do is show off!

C'mon.

Bach Before Breakfest?! "WOOOW YOU ARE SO AWESOME!"

Sightreading To Zanarkand?! "MAN I WISH I CAN DO THAT!!!"

Piano Prodigy Parody?! "WOA I'LL NEVER BE AS GOOD AS YOU!!!"

Danse Macabre?! ... Don't get me started.

Here's my problem.

All you do is play pieces that require a high level of technique, so you can show people how good you are.

Even though your technique IS of high level, I don't like your playing. Learn to play with emotion.

[eddiemperor]

@iPlayPiiano Hey Salieri!!!! be Nice!!! she's Just a Little Girl.

[iPlayPiiano]

@eddiemperor Sorry, I got carried away.

But the fact that she is a little girl is what angers me so much. Again, all she does is show off, I hate people who do that, especially younger people. It's like she's been told all her life that she is awesome, and then telling people she is. That's a little arrogant, especially from such a young person.

Then again, sorry for my comment, reading it now makes me wonder why I actually posted it..

[eddiemperor]

@iPlayPiiano I know what you mean perfectly i don't blame you, I started playing at the age of five myself but quite the opposite, i was shy :), But we have to understand that these little treasures are the ones who are still keeping true music alive today and for the Next Generations to come and we need to apreciate the fact that at so young age she likes Bach. other little girls prefer Dolls :) these kids need to be appreciated even if they show off.....because that's true innocense. God Bless

[weedybong]

@iPlayPiiano i agree with you she is a little douchbag not only cos shes showing off but cos you cant tell the voices in that damn fugue shes too young all she does is desecrating bach

[Wolfsrain90]

@iPlayPiiano I don't get it; how is she showing off? Because there's a video of her on YouTube?

[XxBlownAwayxX]

@iPlayPiiano Haha, someone's jealous.

[iPlayPiiano]

@XxBlownAwayxX Hell yes I am.. Anything else?

[nousernamewhatsoever]

BBB - the Bach Before Breakfast group.There should be a group like that.... :P

[casey2ification]

woah, how old are you?

[erroll9621]

@casey2ification it doesn't matter.

[rotsteineva]

I love the way you play!!! and I´m addiced to BACH!!!!

Keep on playing and working that well!!! Greetings from Madrid, Spain ps: your spanish is perfect too ;)

[jaycethepianist]

its very good :)

just try not to accent notes at the end of phrases. There are a couple of notes that stick out a little. But other than that, well done

[pianopam1]

How old were you here?

[baroque500]

In some parts, hands need to be even. Also, you need less punching out the notes on strong beats: it sounds very stressed, like you put too much effort into playing. It should be light and effortless. In the long leap, feel free to take time. The non legato was too jumpy or clogged up in places. Try to build stronger fingers with Dohnanyi exercises. Bach articulation should be pricky, not staccato. This is a job well done overall; I am just pointing out the weak points.

[Bramborail]

Oh my :-D Genetic mutations *thumbs up* :-D

Music is lovely beautiful

(every time:))

I think you are great person

(What a beauty:))

[9855kikka]

fantastic

[Ellinidara]

[elisaevinha]

Celia, congratulations! You really are very talented and very hardworking too.

I admire. You go too far!

[JuyoNi]

[JuyoNi]

[GustavoHBsAs]

Bach is my favorites. Ask your Daddy about "Electronic Bach".

[Thiagosenna03]

prodigio.. parabéns' :)

[littlebachbwv]

[begowey]

i love music of bach XD

[hoof2001]

Can you put more videos of you playing Bach up?

[reptila98]

Celia, I'm really impressed, what can I say....You teach me lessons of piano effort and improvement in each of you videos. I thank you for appreciating classical music.

[ibe8pud]

This is soooooooo AMAZING!!!

[VanesaWeiss]

Awesome!

[LeonardoAldama]

Hablas español???

Por que tocas Bach antes de desayunar??

[reptila98]

jajaja sus papás hablan español

[LeonardoAldama]

Ahhh, es que yo no sabia reptila98, tu tambien hablas muy bien español. :)

Lo que me sorprende a mi es que esta niña toca super chido y se me afigura que es muy sencilla y hay otros pianistas que tocan aca con su estiilo muy creidos y esta niña toca mejor que ellos.

Saludos

[reptila98]

Jajaja a mi lo que más me sorprende es que sin ser niña prodigio toque tan bien el piano y con tanto sentimiento:P, muy madura es ella, por eso me gustan igual que a ti sus videos. Tschüss:P

[LeonardoAldama]

SIp, coincido contigo.

Yo llevo unos meses con el piano, pero no tengo tiempo suficiente para practicarlo como quisiera jaja mas vale tarde que nunca no? :)

Saludos

[reginoasibal]

DUDE!!! ur awesome!! Im 11 and I'm still nothing compared to that!!! :)

[PhilippeLernould]

excellent !

[maraljan]

What's a genetic mutation? LOL!

Start a new video game entitled "Celia"... a genetically mutated girl who has superpowers playing piano to defeat evil monsters!

[tonedeafpianist]

lol :P

[matsuuradesune]

I say, look for a harpsichord :)

The many magics that happen when harpsichords are around :D

[GodGiftedMusician]

Why do you play bach everyday before breakfast>? lol It's to... hard lol I have a hard time with Bach. I like Beethoven. (I like Bach too, his is just ... different.) I have a Bach Prelude that I am playing in about two weeks for some judges and I just had my thumb broken. lol it's going to be fun! hahaha...

[colfranz1278]

Encore!

[PhillipLWilcher]

There's no better way for a musician to start their day than with Bach. Bach and Chopin are the two composers I return to again and again.

Well done!

[SoldierPiano]

woops that last comment below mine i meant to put this

i didnt said i want to be pround bt i hate ppl who are being SHOWOFF

Just calm down. It's not showing off, it's music.

[SoldierPiano]

[ilt201]

[Pingletons]

"Not bach before breakfast is f%#k before breakfast." Anyone know what the heck that is supposed to mean?

[Pingletons]

[semmis91]

i didnt said i want to be pround bt i hate ppl who are being SHOWOFF

[Pingletons]

Just calm down. It's not showing off, it's music.

[rolandinooo]

Very nice job.. .I'd like to play as well as you. Bach is not easy

Good continuation, i'll come to see your concert :)

[fetentissima]

oddiooo ke il professore le corregga la postura! è brava ma fa venire il mal di mare! i polsi devono stare fermi e diritti.. per esprimere intensità puoi muovere il corpo ma non le mani su e giu.. -.- in bocca al lupo

[Emusic18]

Great performance. Your the next Glenn Gould.

[YAYdudette234]

Man! that was awesome, and I bet if you keep on playing you'll be off the chart

I hope you get discovered XD

[familymio]

how old r u now, im 13

[Crackers729]

how many hours do you practise everyday?

[dereczynski]

Great .Just a word for the future .Not every heavy part of the bar needs to be made that heavy.You are a young supertalent so I am sure that You can understand the concept of the horizontal and vertical in music.One of the ways to balance these two is to sometimes understress the obviously heavy part of a bar.

Good luck and forgive if this advice comes across as arrogant.Was not meant to.

[SUATSENEGER]

mecaguen en naa tocas como alicia de larrocha yo soi un pianista ilicitano y de verdad me as sorprendido yo ya e tocado esa obra mucho mejor que tu a si que te tienes que ir aprendiendo que yo te gano .Por cierto no toces con el pigama o con otra prenda que estubieras tocando que es de mala educacion

[Rebekahgirl2]

I am glad she smiled at the end. I was beginning to think that she didn't even know how to smile because she like never smiles. I like this piece.

[Jemeela]

i'm amazed and jealous

[marcelo17752080]

adorei ela tocando!

muito legal!

[coolesonic2]

Why you want Chatarge dead MortiChatargo?

Hannibal never planned to attack Rome he yust wanted to let Rome see that Chatarge was not yet defeated

[reptila98]

you make honor to bach music

[JohnBach]

Yay for Bach. I'm a Bach (as my username shows).

Have you ever done any harpsichord pieces?

[MortiCarthago]

I wish I could play well because then I would play Bach every morning too! What a fabulous way to start the day...

[LonePianist3]

Nice way to start a morning. Play Bach, eat cereal and go on Brainpop.

I should start playing piano in the morning just to start my day well...but then again, I'd wake up everyone else too early...lol.

Awesome video!

[0k13r4n0]

how long do you think it takes her to perfect a piano piece?

[0k13r4n0]

lmfao, she went to Brainpop after she played piano =P

[larkinmusic021]

que has leido eso de chopin?

[mikeslash]

You are so cute, and you play so nice!

It´s so wonderful seeing a young girl playing Bach. Johann Sebastian would love it.

[blueyoyi]

Excellent !!!

[NASIMNASIM]

Wow, I cant wait until she's of legal age!!

[jonnichan]

very well played, are you a pianist that practices all the time?

[bboyZro]

Man! I bet she's some kinda fucking geniuse.

[moklygospel]

it's more than right!to play piano's fuga before breakfast!

[tess1990]

Celia, when will there be a new video? :)

[ettolrahc94]

you are really amazing..how many hours a day are you playing?

by the way, i LOVE your piano!!

[reptila98]

HI, I like a lot how you play the piano. How can I do to improve the way I play?I want to improve very fast because in a future it will be very late. Thanks.....

[all4tubekids]

WOW you are an awsome piano player :)

[violinboy101]

[alors24]

Celia, you are delightful!

[lucienderubempre]

Eres una pianista fantastica!!!...

[morgierules]

You are fantastic! Keep it up ! You are such an amazing player! I play the piano but Im nowhere near as good as you!

[hurtguy]

Do you viewers notice her right foot? She's not playing any legato with Bach, which is hard. The fingering has to be perfect!

[predoje]

@hurtguy that is no make sense what are you talking...

[SMCrotty]

@hurtguy good observation!

[brimasoft]

Excellent!!! I really like this piece!

[cvjucla3]

You can get a killer tan, young lady!

[MCKENSE431]

WOW YOU ARE AWESOME, YOU GO GIRL

[Falaercio]

Muito bonito.

[happpiday]

love the ending

[klopfweisser]

"Too technical"?! You're talking to a child! For her age, she's marvellous, and "too technical" is a compliment. And anyway, it's a FUGUE! And what, "care free life"? Children SHOULD have care free lives. And what might seem care free to others might not be so care free anyway. Cut it out, you people! Celia, you're wonderful. Keep on doing what you're doing. Looking forward to see more of you in the future.

[norcalrobbie2]

I think it was Schumann who said "Let Bach's Well-Tempered Clavier be your daily bread." Whoever is teaching you knows what he/she is doing. Playing Bach every day before breakfast is impressive. Great phrasing of the voices... nice, even tempo... dynamics are clear... ornamentation perfect. Keep it up.

[Debussy20]

That was Beethoven... he learned them all before age ten!

[norcalrobbie2]

No... actually it was Schumann who said that. I have the bio in front of me.

[norcalrobbie2]

No... actually it was Schumann who said that. I have the bio in front of me.

[Debussy20]

oh sorry, haha beethoven probably thought that aswell.

[mrvolvo10]

...the joy of playing the piano, because the music speaks to the heart and soul...

[footlover40]

its not terrible sincerely you play too technical you dont think musical sorry you should be listen richter lol

[lapaloma75]

cosa?Ma che dici?Scherzi....She is very very good and you not.

[infenity23]

That was incredible. Truly. I was, at best, a mediocre pianist at your age. Now I'm ....somewhat better. But no where near your level.

[DedyuS]

you play the piano very good, tu tocas el piano muy bien, en que curso de conservatorio estas?^^

[violingirl33]

I like you and of course your play too

[Meow784]

marvellous! every single voice was heard without blurr-ness.

[indigoblue555]

5 stars ! Which is your best loved composer?

[SinDantes]

Fue preciosa!

[awatkins69]

Amazing. I'm surprised you even enjoy music like this at your age. I remember when I was your age all I listened to was rap hahahahaha..Very good though. A job well done.

[kelsek29]

absolutely amazing. loved it! can't wait to hear more of you

[ailecec]

kelsek, thanks so much for looking. :)

[MuPiLi]

She's amazing!! =O

[omarfarahat]

that's very good for your health :) talented little pianist.. keep it up! also watch out for the tempo and play the forte more deeply and gently

[ailecec]

omarfarahat, thanks for looking and for the advice. :) Tempo is a tricky thing for me. I work on it a lot, with and without the metronome.

[moonlightxluster]

perfect.

[CrawlingMeower]

Cute musician!

[kissesunited7]

[rosie71350]

[kappyrox18481]

[geheimnisvolle]

Celia, playing Bach every day before breakfast is something I would like to do too, if had time to do it... For me it's more about playing Bach rather after breakfast...lool You play it very well. Keep playing! ;)

[enalevets]

Absolutely fantastic. Well done, your videos are a pleasure to listen to.

[ramonmtv]

celia você dá perfect no piano toda vez que toca-o.

[BOSStv]

Playing Bach (or Bethoven, Mozart) before the daily breakfast, this is a GREAT life style! I love it in you, girl! Again, congratulations!! :D

[BOSStv]

Great Celia! Congratulations and a big kiss for you, girl! :D

[benitz]

Celia, you'll be famous... jejeje, I've seen all your videos, you have a natural talent but... also you're beautiful, and have "Carisma"... Don't you like Rock and Roll music...?

[NASIMNASIM]
