Hillary Ellman - Amber Glow on Piano (Robert D. Vandall)

[wargo1]

Hillary-- I am not a piano player so I do not know anything about dynamics, fingering or the pedal ending. What I do know is that this sounds beautiful! Well done.

[domusaurea1]

BEUTIFULL HERMOSO! GREAT GIRL ;)

[TheGrenpa]

I'd love to learn piano, this sounds amazing.

Keep up the great work.

I wish I had that much control when I was 10, it feels like I wasn't half as good as I thought I was

[lumpypoptarts]

Fantastic!

[purpledolphin100]

i was 10 when i played this ...i want some credit -.-

[SpidersAreNotScary]

The ending was muddled. I play this peice all the time, it's one of my favorites, but you didn't have a clean pedal ending. The dynamics needed work, they were mostly the same and way to loud most of the time. I know that people are saying you did this too fast, but you're right on tempo marks - the rit. are a bit slow, but that works the way you're playing it.

Great Job.

[thebby95]

Way to fast! slow down....a lot! your dinamics are to loud too....focus more on those, especially your crescendos.

[shivin7]

Great job! Your amazing.

[pcshrink]

This is my favorite song for the piano! Not a pianist myself, but a friend is teaching me this song so i can play it whenever i want. Keep up the terrific work! ^.^

ndrkula, actually, Hillary is playing this just right. This is Grant, her sister...I am two years older than Hillary and also play the piano. Hillary got a Superior Rating last year when she was judged playing this piece and she skips none of it. If you scroll down, Robert Vandal, the composer of this piece, actually complimented my sister on how well she plays the piece. Good luck with learning it...sounds like you have a ways to go if you don't recognize how well Hillary does with it.

Mr. Vandall,

Thank you for replying. My parents know that you contacted me. They think it's amazing! How did you find my video (just wondering). My parents won't let me quit piano and even if they did, I wouldn't! I am composing another piece right now for next year's festival. If I get another superior, I will get my first gold cup! My piano teacher will be proud that you think she is good! I will tell her. Thank you again. Hillary

[tightsweetpeach]

WOW! I can't believe you found my video. Thanks so much for taking time to view my performance!I played this for the National Federation of Music Festivals this year and received a Superior but it didn't feel nearly as good as hearing you liked how I played it! Thanks again, Hillary

[tightsweetpeach]

Suterk, sorry but all the SP messages come to our main house computer and I accidentally answered you on their acct. Grant is my brother. Anyway, if you didn't mean to brag....why put me down..."you are bad", "I am waaaaaay better". Look for yourself, that is what YOU said about yourself. If that's not bragging, I don't know what is. Anyway, I still wish you luck with your music and on finding some grace and humility. Hillary

[anjelmyrie41]

I love this peice. My friend is teaching me right now. You did amazing, a few misups but waay better than me.
