Kefra plays Mozart's Turkish March (Rondo Alla Turca)

[openfifth]

I enjoyed your performance, mistakes and all !! You've got energy. Keep practicing.

[randomsupastarr1986]

awesome, truly awesome playing of the song!!

[timfey]

u played it very good , and u look like a NBA basketball player called Yi JianLian =)

[EmoGiant]

1. you look like a zombie ;/

2.too fast

3.use dyanmcis to bring it too life

4. its written for a turkish piano, so play it lighter.

get the notes ight after the key change!!!!

.

and use some emotion!!!!!!!!!!

considering all that, its a terrible performance.

you made me LOL for ages at 1.03 and 3.15 :D

[sweetcandy0211]

i don`t want to be rude but can you comment in a more polite way?I guess you are good in playing piano and maybe u r a professional but that doesn`t mean you can comment in a harsh manner.

he is just playing and don`t expect everyone who can play that piece of music can understand that fully.He has at least the talent.If you are in his place...and being insult then how do you feel?

don`t need to be proud

[queencheetah88]

lol, what u think? he show enough emotion, look at him! and i mean, the tempo is ok!

its never mind, how he looks, the most important is how he plays. its an amazing performance, this piece is very hard, im trying 2 learn it 2...

[tamilmanee]

hey kefra...I think there's lots of effort put into this piece...I think it was a wonderful video despite the errors...What's important is that you enjoy the piece and keep practicing it...and people out there...don't just criticize a person...appreciate their efforts too! Keep it up Kefra...Remember "when there's a will there's a way"....and don't let these critisms get to you...just take them in your stride...Keep it up man!

[Toertjuh]

1.51 lol

[Kefra]

I know it's a bad performance. I am not a pianist; I took lessons 10 years ago. I remember nothing. Yes, some passages and dynamics are sloppy; the errors at 1:03 and 1:51 are jarring.

I don't own a piano at home. I am totally self-taught and get to practice very rarely. So I'm proud of this song. Yes, it's rough.

But would any of you have taken up the piano on your own, and stuck with it to learn a song like this half-decently, like me? Think about that before you insult me, please.

[mehdital]

lol at 1 03

[Noxord]

some parts very good , some catastrphal ... :) try again

[AnimeEverlasting]

i recommend slower pace and more feeling! also dynamics! but overall good job!

[ben9torres]

Garb i own u and im like 5 years younger than u

[van3ssavolcom21]

Hmm, some parts were a bit too loud, concentrate on playing it softer and smoother. But apart from the few mistakes, that was good :-)

"The first beats are in grace notes. Not octaves."

OOPS typo... i meant: "grace notes. Not chords."

[norcalrobbie2]

Being constructive here: Watch the left hand in the "C" part (the A-major part with the octaves). The first beats are in grace notes. Not octaves. The "D" part (the F# minor, A maj, and F# min part with the sixteenth note runs) is extremely messy- work on your phrasing and legato. Tone down the left hand throughout, and pay attention to grace notes as a previous commentor said- you have to *respect the piece the way the composer wrote it. Practise slow, and it'll be perfect.

[spoeltje7]

very good man !!

[x0sillyjilly0x]

Very good.

[superignorant]

FUNNYYY

[thethikboy]

Missing some grace notes, essential because Mozart wrote them in.

[oceanboy1993]

wat a butchering of mozart. ur not bad, but put some emotion into it. mozart is hard to play stylistically, but thats the only way it's good

[TimOnTheInternet]

As for the performance of the video, I give it a about a C-. Mozart is indeed a difficult piece. I also read a comment about this rendition being particularly "Beethoven esk". I agree with that, to an extent. I think it would sound interesting with the accents added in this rendition, but also played at about 170 bps. (I'm not going to use the proper Italian terms, because I think that they are archaic and inaccurate to how music should be played literally).

[TimOnTheInternet]

oceanboy1993:

wat (What) a butchering(unprofessional tone) mozart ("M"ozart, capitalize). ur (Your) not bad,(you should add a period and make the next statement a whole new sentence) but put some emotion into it. mozart (Capitalize) is hard(elementary word) to play stylistically, but thats (That's or That is) the only way it's good (Punctuation) Over all I give your comment a F. Your comment was not very witty. If you're going to use the English language please use it properly.

[oceanboy1993]

lmfao XD. dont bother replying back. i dont wanna talk to you. haha

[nonzionistjews4peace]

I enjoyed it. Keep up the good work

[afacandeniz]

very good, thanks

[Keytaster]

oh man... just nice. Keep practicing! Mozart should be light, not that beethoven-ish.

[semperflcarryon]

Dynamics, it was mezzo forte to forissimo throughout, what happened to the pianissimo;s?

[trigonometrymaster]

left hand is too loud at the the end

wrong notes are emphasised in rondo patterns

doing a recording without properly practising, where you know you get it wrong is not good. Playing at start is lively, energetic and concise. Try and keep that going.

[x0sillyjilly0x]

And leaving a comment with constructive criticism, and not spelling all of the words correctly, is not good.

[sancley]

falta mais felling

[halloween88]

i so when you play fur elise very nice i love that one to but this is fantastick

[tedmrpotato]

You are Excellent, I practicing this song on claasical guitar~~ not easy ~~kkk keep going~~

[nightblade37]

yur tempo is excellent man!!! just keep practicing the middle part.Keep up the good work!!

[TBosnyak2]

Excellent, just do it slower. Your doing a wonderful job! Refrain from moving over the work so quickly.

[Azz9999]

lol.. i dont like playing slow stuff unless its romantic.. fast is good... get fingering right

[Fishysquisher]

This song is not a race.. play slower, play softer, don't smash the piano. On the A-major part right after the beginning, watch your left hand. It smashes those notes and sounds very jarring..

[Gotoh]

You're not supposed to hold with your left hand on the bottom of the first page. Holding on that section makes the song sound a bit messy.

[Kefra]

I'm guessing you mean the sustain pedal I use? I've seen two arrangements, one with a pedal marking in that spot, and one without. My personal preference is for a one-beat sustain whenever the chord arpeggio is in the left hand, but everyone's entitled to their opinion. Thanks for the input.

[AgostinhoJr]

i can't lisen the sound

[TheloniusM]

if you keep playing the f# minor section that quickly all you are doing is practicing your mistakes and ingraining them into your hands. Slow it down and fix it.

[karlng888]

good

[ThunderRanger]

WoW he has played alot longer than me and that  wpoor effot but i still liked it cus he dose play it alot better than me i have only played for 8 months

[MrRockin]

Aside from the few mistakes, that was good performance overall ;)...you have the notes down, just need a lil more fine tuning, but Great Job!

[RL82]

I liked it
