Frédéric Chopin - Polonaise Héroïque

[Mrsnexochy]

So great! I really admire you!

[waterbird91]

YES! GIVE ME POWER! polonaise heroica demands power!!!!!!! You play very well, and by memory yet. I need the damn sheet in my face. Listen to Vladamir Horowicz, he gets down on this piece. Gimmeee POWER and DRAMA!!!!!!!

[Hitherto90]

Slow and steady wins the race.

[MultiPolarius1]

to miał być Chopin a nie lokomotywa na stromym podjeździe

[Wrooblas]

yea, and this is the proper tempo! everyone want to play it faster, they don't know that the tempo like this is the good one! i'm glad to hear it like that. well done. greetings from Poland (Chopin's national country ;))

[ricardopaez13]

Brindo por vos!!!



[Lorenzodu69]

You're great. Can you give me your hands please ?

But i would like to listen that in HD xD

[MuzicSoundz]

Amazing! 

[gumslinger]

Amazing man. It's depressing to think music of this calibur will never be written again /sigggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhh­hhhhhhhhh.

[TheSingingCello]

@gumslinger never is a speculation, there could be someone sitting there doing it right now... with 6-7 billion people in the world it becomes more likely.... consider there were less than 1 billion when he was writing it.

[xxh3llfir3xx]

nice technique man, but the only thing i'd suggest is simply to add MORE POWER! it's a polonaise, you should play it with the glory and legacy that Chopin himself regarded his home country.

[rcdinh91]

respect for Chopin...

and this man

[alienor0342]

my aunt (RIP) was playing like that and she gave me the piano passion...

[farah73]

are you a libra or an Aries? we are very much alike in our musical taste. all the pieces you play are my favorite and i played them. i also have a gotee since i was 17.

i'm not shallow, i just wanted to know your horoscope. i'm almost sure that you're a libra. if you're not, just tell me in private so i don't look stupid :)

cheers

[889michael1]

Great!!

[onceigoblack]

what the fuck? any one in the thriller video has more life than the way u play this piece.

[InSaNiTyRaNgE]

ooohhh i like your militaristic feel to it. tweak the speed to a little faster. just a little

[cyberlain08]

No puedo creer tu habilidad.. lastima la carencia de emocion en tu rostro :( pero la interpretacón es impecable!!!

[PyrateQueene]

What are you doing on YouTube!? Bravo!

[MistyBluesMoon]

superbe! bravo!

[baaboy83]

u r perfect man ..

i like your playing ..

better than the rest ..

just keeo it up and don't care to the stupid comments in here !

:D

[kellykellytong]

best version!!!



[earnshaw27]

Wonderful!

[nateb666]

Damn man. Keep working on your tempo and volume, and you will be one of the greats.

P.s. STOP POSTING ON YOUTUBE, AND START GETTING PAID MAN.

[maxtormaxtor]

Ummm... WOW!

[jmkeller]

Great job, but more heroique! There didn't seem to be much passion.

[dianahuntergoddess]

AUSGEZEICHNET!!! bravo!!!!

[killingangel707]

Lol Please don't tell me you played this by ear like your other pieces cuz that would be badass.

[turokrocks09]

You're very talented!!! I'm very impressed. Bravo!!!

[kempff95]

too much pedal iprefer rubinstein!

[TheLovelyPiano]

I love your tempo. I try to play this too fast like others. But I can master it in tihs tempo. I love it.

[chaussonaph]

you must be not very tired after that...

[Paulo78180]

Superbe, même j'aurais attendu un peu moins de pédale !

[Dnava28]

I totally agree! Even too slow in some passages but... Anyway, congratulations, it's a difficult piece and you've played it pretty well! Hope you can improve your performance! ;)

[TheLovelyPiano]

Paulo78180 - Pedel is subjective. You like a little less pedal, he likes a little more, right?

;)

[Paulo78180]

Bien sûr, mais il n'est jamais interdit de donner son avis, je crois que le système des commentaires sur Youtube sont là pour ça, non ?

[TheLovelyPiano]

Paulo78180, it is to listen and enjoy the music. Some people like to complain and bring out the worst instead of the best. They are the glass is half empty types who can't be satisfied because nothing's ever good enough. They are miserable, negative people, and a cancer to society.

[Paulo78180]

Avant de traiter les gens de "cancers de la société" parce qu'ils ont osé critiquer quoi que ce soit, regardez aussi la façon dont vous les blâmez, qui est aussi misérable.

[Tomd1013]

haha i dont like society today. dont you wish everyone was more civilized and thoughtful?

[neolithics]

I think I'll always love the Rubinstein version best, but yours comes a close second. :-) This I think is one of the more challenging piano pieces and you pulled it off really, really well. C'est vraiment incroyable...

[Laurentpiano9]

Génial !

[xv3sx]

congratulations. it''s amazing :)

[charly4195]

PianoCriticsKilller, it dosent matter where u are, but if u dress formaly, or at least casual formal, it would show respect to chopin.

this piece dosent require any passion ? ! are u nuts ?

who are you and do u play piano?

oh and i will upload a video of me playing that , soon.

why is your name pianocriticskiller? well, mabye thats your job to critisize piano players...

[TheLovelyPiano]

charly4195, he's dead, deary, or had you ntoiced? lol

I think pianocriticskiller's job is criticize piano "critics" not the players. lol

; )

[TheLovelyPiano]

Awesome!

[charly4195]

dude, how old are you?

you are good, u have it good, but all u need to do is include more passion!!!! hand motions!!!! and youll be perfect!!!!! play it again like that, and wear a suit, i swear youll get thousands of views!!!!! im 14 n i played this but i didnt put on youtube yet!

[PianoCriticsKilller]

charly4195, Wear a SUIT??? He's sitting at home! Do you wear a GOWN at home? He played this PERFECTLY, but you just HAVE to bitch about something. I bet you can't play this. In fact, I bet you can't even play piano. And this piece doesn't require any passion. His hand motions are playing this difficult piece! WTF are HAND

[XPJamieXD]

Wear a suit? Include more passion? Hand motions? Yes because that's what piano playing is about, aesthetic appreciation. Stupid me thinking it was about the music. I wonder why you haven't uploaded your rendition...well when you do upload (which I'm sure you won't) I'm sure you'll be wearing your best Armani. Btw how do you use hand motions whilst playing the actual piece or are you simply referring to throwing your hands in the air at any chord played anything over mezzo forte?

[steph017087]

spank

[astronomo16]

Está bien, pero como una cosa decirte que tienes que apretar más las teclas y mantener más el pedal pues a veces suena el sonido algo discontinuo.

[DariaVelZiutka]

You're really good, keep it up! ^^

[pakko89]

more drama!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[spikedardens]

so good!

[bamadeus67]

possibly one of the most challenging pieces ever written. well done

[Ostirala]

komo tokas o madre mia eres un azzzz

[AvidHobbyist]

AMAZING!

[bluhdstool]

i understand why he is going slow i do the same you can't take this song fast unless you have got it down perfectley

[jeffcao2k]

no matter how fast a person plays, MIDI can always play faster. He plays with a good flavor, which counts. It's art not sports; not the fastest wins.

[miwitza]

i agree, this sounds very, very good

[aestalimonadi]

Fantastic! I got a long way to this, i think!

[eletricap2]

Franchement, excellente ta vidéo. Je vais commencer à travailler cette pièce dans les jours à venir, ça m'a fait plaisir de voir ton interprétation !

[LimosiaPOLAND]

You are really good, I must admit. BUT one remark: you ought to write his name without these "worms" above "e" letters. Chopin was from Poland and the name is Fryderyk.

[FreeTheJambon]

Yes but Frédéric is his "Frenched" (dunno how to say it in English) name.

[foxyjohnuk]

Frenchified is the word you're looking for, and it is this spelling that he himself preferred to be used after becoming a French citizen. :)

[bluhdstool]

ok he is a natural

[XPJamieXD]

I agree, listen to Valentina Igoshina play this...Perfect. This too is beautiful though :]

[ilovemystart]

dans tes montées "chromatiques mineures" c'est bizarre ca sonne un peu trop majeur ?! ou c'est le son peut être...

[middleC17]

I'm debating wether to become a sign language interpreter or a professial pianist. You make me want to do the latter!

[middleC17]

Horowitz style!

[jammydude]

why can't you do both?

=]....either way piano is the best XD

[darek512]

Viva la Polonia!

[anadeparis]

tu joues vraiment super bien!

[jgbushrod]

It's gentle, yet still noble and glittery... lovely as usual, David! Your Chopin is charming

[HopeJoyFaith]

People are saying speed it up but if only they knew how hard this piece is. Keep up the good work. I too am practicing this piece..I just need to get it a little faster.

[BigernFeb71977]

WOW! Freakin' awesome dude!!

[maciex47]

It's perfect. Really great job! I love Chopin. The tempo should be a bit faster :)

[MountCashelTuck]

i know its not about this video but will some people help in the fight against mikecaffey what he says about other musicians is severe defamation of character especially when they play hungarian rhapsody 2

[peduzzi89]

Very nice - speed up a bit and some parts are still a little mechanical but that stuff will come with time. One of the better home recordings I've seen.

[longlivelv33]

He sure cannot compare to the Twin Keys at Harrahs Las Vegas....They are the best!! They play with their BOOBS!!!!

[WoundedKite]

kudos!

[nico22059]

I liked this, but a bit slow! Maybe you could upload a video of you playing it a bit faster, otherwise it´s perfect!

Cheers!

[tyufui]

superbe ,sa serait smat de ta part si tu pourais menvoyer les partition .merci

[Byk232]

Bravo,bravo

[tyufui]

wow fantastic magnifique ,bravo, exelent travail

[milrem]

You are so good like Rubstain!

[heroicpolonaise]

you meant Rubinstein ??

[jackyrouffach]

c'est vraiment dommage : la technique est là, mais alors aucune musicalité ... on a l'impression d'un collage bout à bout ... un grand pas vers plus de sensibilité et ça sera superbe !!! Bon courage ;)

[196823]

too mach rubato!!!

[Drannitchkas]

It is used frequently in music of the Romantic Period you know!

[pacopinoy]

rubato is what chopin did a lot man!

[sniton]

Je viens de retomber sur cette video, et c'est vraiment super, chopin, david, what else?

[halilthe42ndturk]

its a very good performance. but if you sped it up a bit it would sound so much better.

[Enzo24680]

Bravo.The next Cecile Licad,Barenboim and rubinstein.beautiful.thanks for sharing your video's.5 stars.

[oldmansteptoe]

you make it look so easy.

[Mayka99]

AWESOME !!!!

[jtaimeChopin]

Any suggestions as to how to play the intro easily? I just decided to pick this piece up and it's not sounding pretty. XD

:P

[BleuCheveluFille]

ooo...very good.

I like very mucH this piece.

CHOPIN-polonaise(heroiq)

[PatronizedSaint]

Wow.

[zaroziniart]

Superb!!!!

[thamenato]

Wow, good job David!

[blueyoyi]

This is a more gentle interpretation ... nevertheless, the execution is clear & superb!!!

[myblueeyes17]

wow this is beautiful !!!!

*keep the good work up*

liz xxx

[Tlllllllllllllll]

You hands look so smooth like they're hardly moving across the keyboard!!! I also like your slower tempo. That's also how I play it. But you sound much better than I do. I don't know if that's much of a compliment though. ;)

[Tlllllllllllllll]

BRILLIANT!!!!

[marialuciaroca]

sorry pero NADA QUE VER

[phpw43a]

Great job! Keep it up!

[BankFace]

Great job? He's got CDs out and everything! He's DEVINE!!!!

David - I'm a fan! I LOVE your playing. LOVE it! I'm working on this one and 3rd Mvt Moonlight. I'm learning by watching you.

[WinterFrank]

Wow j'aime vraiment ça! ^_^
