  • "I am commenting on this video to say that I have been playing piano for _____ years and this girl is not that good. She has no paschun and it is obvious she should have done ____ and _____ to make it five hundred times better, like I would have done! I could post videos and/or say something relevant, I just choose not to, it has nothing to do with the fact I'm just talking out of my ass."

  • @XxXTueurDuGarconsXxX Improvisation is a gift, ither you have it or not, and if you have it you can develop it, developing it depends more on you influences, genres you listen to and pieces you played. So you've been playing for 10 years and you can't improvise ==> You don't have that gift,so just focus on playing and that's it. To improvise is to compose instantly,big composers like Beethoven and Chopin, when composing, they start with something improvised then they develop it and arrange it.

  • @dayse if you think you're so much better - im not saying you are'nt, i just dont know you - then make a youtube video of you doing improvisation. ive been playing piano for 10 years (im 14) and cant do improv like that. ill subscribe ps. you kinda are talking out of your ass.
