[DannieShaw1990]

...teach me >_< :L

[darochato]

I've got that watch!!! XD

[cynthylicious97]

OMG... WOW!!!! 

[jakoson7]

is this easier or harder than fantasie impromptu?

[AndrewBrethour]

@jakoson7 i think this is easier

[dbfan2scfan]

Im learning this right now, you play it better than my keyboard does lol.

[T1NAxTH3xGR8]

@dbfan2scfan SNAP haha xD me and my little keyboard playing this :')

[MarrziThePimp]

THE PIANOS WALTZING! =D

[TEMPORARY5683]

what level is this?

[NotMachinima]

Very nice playing, The only part i find hard about this song is the bit where it runs down really fast. D<

[ptdrawoh]

@NotMachinima

I know what you mean, that part at 1:58 right? D< I can't get that part down, so messy and choppy when I try it.

[Parishrut2]

Your piano playing is rocking, haha, so is your piano!

[vonnmiel21]

that piano's rockin'! :D

[TheShaun6666]

@agenthelios1 if u think that's skillful listen this. Chopin fantasie impromptu

[TheMJJandJDBlover]

I'm practicing on learning this. Wish me luck.

[myNameisSanford]

Damn... I promise myself to learn this one day. I'll get to it eventually.

[JaysEatingWorld]

i tried playing this. i broke my fingers

[McThomas369]

Okay, 17 human are stupid.

[B4PH0M37]

is refreshing to see someone to tap on its speed

[agenthelios1]

How long have you been playing....very skillful. Great dexterity. ..FAVORITE!

[B4sch1r]

i love this music and you played it perfectly i think :D

nice :D

if you got the notes could you send me them pls?

[supersonicdrawer]

is this song possible on a plastic key keyboard or does it need to be bouncy keyed piano. cos i cant play it at this tempo.

[ZombieGamesFTW]

@supersonicdrawer My Yamaha YPt-210 (Which sucks) Digital Keyboard has this song as a Pre-Set song so you can learn an play it. So..i guess u can.

[mylife1221]

I can play this at temp 280 with one hand (not left hand) :D :D :D

[Cema23]

amaZInG!

[earlgangoso]

I really wish i could play this!

[earlgangoso]

Whew! This is really IMPOSSIBLE!!!!

[aghaanantyab]

petit chien (french) = puppy (english)

[vallev99]

@aghaanantyab or small dog

[mylife1221]

@aghaanantyab Small dog, you mean.

[chanchiem]

i like turkish march better, sounds more advanced

[mylife1221]

@chanchiem Not so fast. Rondo Alla Turca has a lower tempo than tis, and it doesn't say 'Molto vivace' at the beginning.

[WaterFor3st]

I miss playing this song. I was never this good and I was only able to play with my right hand but I always improved when I played. 

[Opul3nce]

Love the way his hand flows...

[tombnelson]

@Opul3nce Johnny had a dream that St. Padre Pio came to him and told him to share his talents... and that he plays like he has sausages for fingers.

[DIXIEPAWSpunkrock]

good job

[TheHendersonSociety]

I really enjoy your interpretation, especially your adventurous phrasing of the grace note first appearing in the tenth measure. The only bothersome quality for me is your tendency toward the end to let the accompaniment overwhelm the melody. Wonderful playing, though!

[sonysk84life]

Oh em geeez!! :O I'm trying to learn this song but I can't get both of my hand to play together D:

[rodolphobfa]

Impressive.

[Iispj]

holy shit ur good

[Seethru81]

beautiful

[Teddybear12354fyi]

i'm sooo jealous, i can't get both my hands to work together to play this song :P

[ketchuplars]

@Teddybear12354fyi ahha me too its so hard to do one thing with one hand and something else with the other

[Kurolli]

I HAVE A MUSIC BOX THAT PLAYES THIS! i had it since i was little, I didnt know what the song was called untill now...wow~

[SuperStefan14]

omg^^



[BrittanyGough15]

Your fingers are moving quite whimsical

[yidem5]

felicidades

[pianorags]

nice,has anyone got a link to the sheet music please

[DennisBayazitov]

You're fingers are weird, in the nicest way possible. I mean, seriously, how the hell are they so fluent?!

[girly111111]

your fingers are fluent like water

[terryechelon]

i'm studyng this and it is quite difficult..!!

[1Realmusiclover1]

I want your hands. They're like floating over the keys.

[spartya]

Good man =D

[hanahisbabo]

why is the piano moving btw..

[EmHenn11]

@hanahisbabo It's probably on wheels. I hate that!

[alitlemomentinmylife]

hahaha ! in the second 1:23 he yawn

[hellboyreloaded]

why everybody thinks of this piece as a "hard piece", i'm playing the piano for 3 months, and i spend only 3 days learning it, and believe me, i know what i`m talking about...

[makidude]

can you post a video then?

[hellboyreloaded]

ok.. as soon as i got back my video recorder i tell you

Sorry for my english, I'm not from the U.S.A

[surferchickluvschips]

@hellboyreloaded theres a difference to playing piano and knowing how to play it !! this guy is playing it !! you just know how to play it ! so stop showing off !i don't care if your a musical genius but the rest of us aren't so go join the einstein club and leave us "lesser" pianists alone

[hellboyreloaded]

but wtf are you talking about?i know how to play it, and i CAN play it, i'm saying that this is not that hard, like you are saying motherfuckrs,i'm not saying i'm a "musical genius", go fck urself mthrfckr.

[StinkWoo123]

@hellboyreloaded lol ther is a huge difference bettween playing the piano well and playin it bad. My music teacher was one of the best pianists in the country at 12 and was the 1st person in england to pass graduated board with 100% for wach piece. He then went on to be one of the best french hornist`s (duno how to spel plural) in the country... All this takes LOADS of practice...Hes been playing for 50 years 5 hours a day and this piece took him 3 days to learn. Dont tell me it took you 3days

[hellboyreloaded]

@StinkWoo123 mmm can you tell me what is the difficult of this piece? is only a musical scale... just 1, and the rest are the same, onl in the middle part is different, but that is really easy, the following part is just practice, i don't see nothing difficult here...

[StinkWoo123]

@hellboyreloaded mwaha the speed?? playing it fluently with speed...acuracey?? All this would take rather a long time... O and calm down with the language dude.

[hellboyreloaded]

@StinkWoo123 he's not really playing it fast enough, in fact, he is playing slowly, and changing the bit too often. This week i'll upload a video of me playing it, i'll call you as soon as i upload.

[paradoxy666]

@hellboyreloaded well, wheres the video?

[Choiboi1994]

@hellboyreloaded ok I admit, this is not the most difficult piece to learn, however it is still difficult, unless your a prodigy you should not be able to learn this in three days, ask yourself if you lying or not. if you are not, then good for you, your amazing.

[hanahisbabo]

@hellboyreloaded there is so much more to music then just playing a peice. you have to get the acuracy and the style of the peice right. sure i believe you can play the notes but im not quite sure how good youll be

[mycahman]

it hurts my hands when i try to play this

[zece1314]

It's not bad at all, your interpretation.

[HeadHunter92294]

It kinds sounds like mario at like 0:40

[zoetutiigirl17]

esa cancion apenas la estoii aprendiendo a tocar, pero me saka de quicio lo rapida ke es... aunke sigo haciendo el esfuerzo xD

[Aqueousfoboy]

haha a mi tmb me desespera que vaya muy rapido XD

[pseudocaveman]

You're meant to slow down in those tricky parts, anyway. It's how the piece was written. The tempo constantly changes.

[stone412]

Your fingers must glide through like butter whenever you play that, you're so used to it.  I give you props, man. Well done!

[110v1]

:o ooooooooooooo!

[GraceFuLAttk]

graceful

[apvivi19]

Yeahh avnit, I don't think you'll get this down anytime soon haha.

[GraceFuLAttk]

hey man

1st 30 seconds already :P

[GaarapunKx3]

awesome! and yes they did!

[blurb72]

how do you get your wrist to not wobble?? its like ur fingers are just gliding over the keys!!! i hav trouble with this!!

[incamanrique]

i just finished learning this song, i dont play it like the right speed as you do. i like play it faster sometimes and it sound like retarded but, amazing job! :)

[chiisanahoshi]

wow! does anyone know what grade is this piece?

[VirtuaLcUb3]

@chiisanahoshi grade 8

[hughesho1]

in the forth bar i wonder if the last 2notes are unneccessary. In the sostenuto part the left hand is overweight. The whole piece is too firm and lack of vivace

[Allevithebest]

i think it isnt a good esecution..

[XaldBalghostriped]

I want the sheet music with the right fingerings!!

[karymelkandy69]

I just watch this over and over again. this is just ridiculously amazing. lol!

[ursmall9000]

WOW!

[charledouard]

Interprétation magistrale

juste une petite remaruqe , le piano aurait besoin d'un accord

[AmanogawaGalaxy]

*sigh* Someday, I'm going to play like this! When I "play" this song, I get yelled at my piano teacher a lot, I make a lot of mistakes, and it's REALLY slow. Nice job! And wish me luck!

[lovediegoyroberta]

i soo love  this song!

[synysterjazmyngates]

That was grand XD

[yuristaar]

how i'd like to meet chopin

[emerset]

I know he spoke Dutch and French. Im not certain he spoke English, though.

Anyone?

[Mirrellia]

Chopin's a wonderful composer! i luv to play his song because everyone always looks at you like ur a god or sumtin at the end! :D Well played man! 5 stars~

[ameagor]

@Mirrellia :( i belong to the one at the back cuz i cant paly something like this yet.

[youssef5133]

@Mirrellia ya

[gleetooth]

Actually the descending scale from 2:00 is supposed to be faster but thats like really hard to do. your speed is still quite awsome too.

[wuhanbaby]

shiiit look at those freaking fingers fly!!!!

you

are

awesome!!!!

:)

i love this song!

[stephenburtondepp]

I can play this and I'm only 13 I love how everyone gets all astonded when I play it lol

[emerset]

show us

[stephenburtondepp]

I'll try and post it soon would you like me to notify you?

[emerset]

absolutely.

I was learning it, and got down the first half pretty nicely!

Id just like to hear Chopin play it himself though!

[stephenburtondepp]

Figure out a way to let me know. :) And i'd be happy to!

[basodecocademono]

what does: " white men" writed in the description

[gleetooth]

its not writed its writen

[thegabry2]

super!

[synysterjazmyngates]

LOVE THIS SONG!

AMAZINGLY DONE!

:D :D

[icypikachu]

I just totally love this song. Perhaps one day I too can play it as well.

[teresahan1991]

lol, your description... They did indeed. Nice playing.

[timfey]

interesting...：D

[monkey61790]

once again another decent paced interpretation.. i hate the fact that this waltz is called the minute waltz because it sounds horrible played really fast..

[Jenzasan]

what do you expect, hes a man..

[Lity10]

Yeah, but he could shave.. right? Lol.

[eagle1101]

Shaving arms leads to ingrown hairs. If you were desperate you could wax.

[lukethegreat101]

I always have to take my watch off when Im playing, if I don't I seem to always mess up my clef.

Doesn't stop this guy though, very difficult song to play. (at least for me)

[Music4LifeNFun]

I have the sheets, if anyone is interested i can email for free =) the important thing is: Play music and enjoy the amazing sensation. And By the way, you play it really beautifully, keep up with the good work!

[jenayen]

Your version is waaay better than mine.

Mine is kinda for " beginners " ..i think ... XD

anywayz,, You have Golden fingers!, Keep them!

and G'luck!

[Zintendo]

the second half is like 10 times better and the first half is just a big fat finger tongue twister

[hvyyv]

the song its so beatiful and fast, i need the two hand to play the right hand and also i need the 2 hands to play the left hand

[automodelismotegus]

it is not fair to see you guy making it look that easy to play, now I sure I dont want to learn piano, dont even wanna see my keyboard. Amazing!

[deepdeep25]

I really want to learn this piece.  Even more so now that I've watched you play it. Excellent job.

[miryamstein777]

i want to learn to play this song so bad. bravo!

[ASookee]

learnt dat when i was 10 but wow that was FREAKIN Fantastic

[CarsieMisPro]

Nice...5/5 Keep it up

[tobijoh]

Fantastic... I wish that I was as good as you are :)

[HouseAddict8240]

AMAZING!!!!!!!!! I bet your hands hurt after that!

[mario64rocks]

no it actually feels good, it gets rid of stress.

[aghaanantyab]

deadly...

[xoxraffikixox]

i am very impressed, especially as he has no sheet music,so it's to be expected theres no dynamics and its slower

[kriztinandsara]

i can play this and i am in middle school!

[IHAVEOECDANDOTD]

COOL

[StephBerri]

me too. i learned it in 5th grade

[jonmartintx]

This song is very funny, considering what it was inspired by. I read that Chopin composed this when he was watching his dog spin around in circles chasing his tail. Funny, no? You can completely imagine imagine it. lol

[sdthird10]

i lived through the roman ages and the renaissance times

[lord4ris]

Estem. Creo que por eso se llama petit chien :s

Deberian aprender un poquito de francés XD

Jejejeje, está genial que se inspiren con algo tan simple :p

[samperez5]

y emm q es petit chien ps? perdon x la ignorancia jaja

[lord4ris]

mmm...

pequeño perro

o perrito, para que suene mejor :p

xD

Jejejeje

por eso lo divertido y jugueton de la pieza :p

jajaja, y si, por eso la historia de que Chopin se inspiro en su perro cuando vio que daba vueltas persiguiendo su cola xD

[ryanryu]

i like it, it seems like he has his own way of playing the piano.

[NarutoIsMyNumber1]

O.o How? HOW?!!! Wow...

[stephenburtondepp]

This is apsolutly amazing I'm learning it on piano right now

[BlauAngst]

Chopin created this master piece seeing his little dog which was chasing its tail. Then if you hear the song you can imagine the dog.. I love it.

(sorry if I misspelled something)

[pianistedanslame]

Bravo, cet superbe!! [ j'essaye de la jouer mais je n'arrive pas a cette vitesse la!! ]

[deathgod7432]

dude your supose to play this twice as fast

[clickcijum]

Dude, if he played this twice as fast, it would be totally unrecognisable. :\

[deathgod7432]

your wrong

[clickcijum]

1. your/you're

Please correct that

2. That would be absolutely phenomenal if it were played twice as fast...can you show me?

[aswint]

You might be right. I've heard it played faster. But I think every pianist has their own interpretation of the music. In any case, It's well played, although lacking dynamics

[changoldenguy]

i can only play the left hand part:-)

[rondotexe]

Haha! :D

[xRatmx248]

Excellent :D I did enjoy

[killerbunny123123]

that was truly fabulous, really good interpretation but WHY?! the last chord wasn't good! it was supposed to be held for longer, man!

[xxxangelxxx1]

i can play this =D

[nivekia]

wonderful!! fantastic!! awesome!! five stars!!

[leefeiring]

wonderful! i wish i can play as excellent as you do =3

[Teelo888]

greatttt! amazing playing. nice

[traceur13]

For aesthetic purposes, you should lose the watch, but your playing was magnificent.

[FIGSTHEHERO]

lol i agree. :D

[mzbebegirl]

This song is beautifully played, he makes it look so easy! <3

[iceandballet]

i can only play the right hand part, but when i do my hand cramps:D haha. but you are a very good pianist!!

[irenek518]

dude i used to be able to play it. but after i finished mastering it n stuff, i stopped playing it b/c it was fast. and now i cant finish playing the whole thing without messing up. :(

[PhotogenicKid]

i know how to play this, but only the first half.....it took me a week to learn, this is my favorite song.

[vinicile16]

This is the hardest music on my CTK-700

[vjslcs]

jaja q genioo!!!

[a2z95]

this is great! im gonna use it in my utube video called rossiepa eats a cookie cuz u play so well! well i mite.....most likely!

[stevey226]

On the first trill why did you stop quickly? There's no rest in the score.

[PianoManTyler]

Nicely played! im learning this piece right now. heres an interesting fact:this song was orignally mistaken because  "Petit Chien" means "minute song" (minute meaning small) and the english adopted this piece and thought that it was "Minute Song" (minute bieng the time period)and thought that the song was supposed to be played at the tempo 215 so that the piece was only one minute long when finished. the correct meaning of "Petit Chien" is "Small Song" and not "minute song". not fast. :)

[Slicktacker]

This is completely wrong. Anyone who knows any French knows that 'chien' means DOG, not "song". Chopin wrote this song "Petit Chien" = "Little Dog" with the intention of depicting a little dog chasing his tail (seems so obvious now, eh?) :)

[jamesjosuejara]

yea

Slicktacker i correct, and not only in french ,too in chinese... tyker is so crazy this song is faster and is very good faster, and man what is " with the intention of depicting a little dog chasing his tail " i dont now english

[karymelkandy69]

lol! thats so funny. I can definitley see that the dog just runnin around in circles. I learned to play not through notes but my keyboard, its very difficult to play. I can only play the first half and not even that fast.
