it sounds like shit man..... my friend did this for his senior recital last semester and it was not this bad..... you really have to calm down on you tone, and work on getting a darker more clear more focused tone and take it alittle faster get it up to actual tempo. Sorry if it sounds like im being an asshole but this is one of my favorite pieces and you ruined it.: also as 1800smd000 said.... PRACTICE WITH A METRONOME. Those 16th note phrases are absolutely not in time.
okay, I have know idea what other people were hearing, but I think this was amazing I was looking for this song everywhere. You truly play incredibly well. Don't listen to them haters. Keep up the good work.
I think it need some work. 1st off, its too slow for my liking. 2nd, i'm not too fond of your crescendoing up to your vibrato in the beginiing. as my band teacher would say, your notes are "balloon shaped". Keep up the good work though
I played the piano part for one of my friends. It's really easy and really fun. I learned it in about two hours, and the ending was really nice sounding.
you are using too much of a jazz articulation. You need to develop a classical embouchure. I also have the same problem as I mostly play jazz. Other than that don't get in front the beat, put it on the back side...
your tone sound strange and pitch get a little higher when you are trying to crescendo.the entirety sounds good but the vibrato and tone quality.
there is one more thing i can't get it,there are lots of people judge this performance,why the"views"are higher than other performance which better than this?like Miha Rogina and Nobuya
oh, and your way too rigid in time and artistry. Loosen up and place more empisis on the more important beats to give samba feeling. 1! (+2) +!( 3+) 4! (+).
a lot of people have played it better than this and i'm sure a lot more play it better than you do. This is not a place to brag about how you're a sophomore in high school and play it better. You are truly showing your age.
To be honest, this is not a good perfornace. There are simply too many technical errors. I also don't like the way you attack your vibrato - you do a swell of the note, and it's really annoying to my ears. Besides that, it's good. You have good dynamic contrast and good tone, but you really need to play it better technically.
You need to practise a bit before leaping into this song again. Your sound was very thin:( play it in tempo 112!!! Its a samba and you need to express yourself more!!! But that aside, your very brave to jump on stage and play this piece!!!
That was bloody brilliant, I am playing that for my grade 8, you have gave me some really good ideas for how to present this piece, Thank you ever so much I'm really glad I have found this video

You should stick to jazz and drop classical music.
To be honest, every classical style song you play sucks, not because you have a bad tone(I heard "I love you" and it's very good.), but because you play with no expression, the style is all wrong, and many things are at a slower tempo, yet you still have issues with getting the notes under your fingers.
I can't believe you are a performance major. Someone should have said something about this to you before you became a senior.
Slow, but not boring. Better to take a tempo you can handle and focus on correct notes and good tone. Which you did. Maybe eventually you can speed it up. Nice job.

You did not play this very well... use a metronome and practice the semi demi's really slowly and your vibrato needs work

Your not using the correct style for this song. Your playing it all jazzy like although jazzy wouldn't even describe it since its too nice of a word.
At least you tried...

Wishtoplayjazzwell 7 months ago
dude.
#1: classical tone, not jazz tone
#2: get a metronome, set it at 40 bpm, and practice measure 186 over and over and over.

Perhaps your finger work is not as poor as a kid beginner. Yet, your sound quality is really disgusting - so horrible that I can't describe in words.

your embouchure needs to be adopted more classical.
the first fast run is supposed to be cleaner....it was a little uneven
thats just my opinion

good dynamics.
very thin and timid in upper rage.
very wide vibrato. do u want that?
technical errors.
Slow and perfect better than fast with errors.
keep it up!
