Only good piano players get page flippers.

@FeBlandMusic yeah when i found out about it, i could see this part from a different perspective. it helped me understand this piece better and it's also more interesting to play pieces knowing the composer's intentions ! now everytime i come to that part, i think of that story and it always makes me smile haha

[tokmind]

well done

[chubbythechubchubtif]

Good job!

Do you know about Debussy 'poking fun' at Wagner at 1.12 to 1.17 etc. he is 'laughing' at the Tristan and Isolde theme - part of an Opera which runs for several hours.

@5tamzy5 @Treelou101 thanks for your comments. i was pretty nervous in this performance so i was focusing more on the correct notes and not really the musicality. now i'm older (15) and i try to play more by memory, and with feeling too. haha hopefully i'll put up some more videos soon, but i'm kinda lazy. haha

@Treelou101 I think great isnt the best word.It is passable. In 13 everybody can play this notes, but music isnt about playing black balls in a stave.Music is about feeling implications...I dont like small childrens, most often from china, witch have no childhood, just all time play the piano to be good in it, but they dont feel that.just notes, nothing else....I havent heard this one on guitar, I'll look it up, do you have some video with guitar? (sorry for bad english, Im young foreigner)

[Treelou101]

@5tamzy5 she did great >.> shes only 13... this song also great on guitar :D

[5tamzy5]

maybe you have a good sense for breaks, for your age, but notes arent good.In middle part, you miss whole 2 time!!! First learn notes, better when you play it from memory, not from sheets...
