I had to play this for my exam and i only just scraped it. I played it loads slower and i thought i was playing wrong but then i realised its supposed to sound ploddy (sorry i couldn't think of a better word).
Man, I still can't play it properly... TT3TT This would be a lesson to me, to not slack too much... and play this song more often, more than B3 and C1...
Very good indeed. Just three things I would pick up on. I think more staccato in parts would have made this a more lively performance, especially the last bar. Also, a little more expression and distinction in the right hand arpeggios, around 0.36 i think. Finally, I think it was played far too fast..

im doing this, this guy is great on the first page, but second page needs to add the dynamics which are in there (theres not many lol so i always make them real important and stand out)
im doing:
this piece
little boats water (it has a french name fr title)
Very good, thanks for posting. When you're playing slowly, it would be nice if the camera could be over your shoulder to more clearly show your fingering.
Thank you so much for uploading this video, it has been a great help to my son who is doing this piece for his grade 4 exam next month. I wish you had 'Bop goes the Weasel' and 'Cattle Call' uploaded too!
A pleasure! It is really cheery to be thanked. I wish some of my pupils, for whom I do this would benefit as much as your son has done! (I don't have time to do all the pieces, but perhaps I can do more bit by bit).

i did this piece
i liked it when i first started playing it
and then i got frustrated cause i found it kinda hard
and then i completly freaked out when i did a practice exam with my piano teacher 2 days before my actual exam and i had to start it again 3 times.
i hated it ever since
but great playing :]
