Arthur (6 yo) learned by himself to play his beloved Clementi's Sonatina.

Arthur was out of teacher for 4 months. However he did not stop practicing piano and learning by himself all this period. This Clementi's sonatina seems to be a good one for a birthday milestone. Sometime ago his sister was practicing it for a while and Arthur liked it a lot. So he decided to learn it from the music score and from his memory. This is how it sounds now and Arthur would love to present it to his youtube friends.

Arthur and his sister Angeni just started with their new piano teacher.

  • What a sweet little boy. There is poetry in the way he faces the music, and elegance in the way he plays. With time he will be very good indeed! How long ago was this video made?

  • @zimnaya Thank you for such sweet words, zimnaya! The video was taped 2.5 year ago before his 7th birthday. During that period he was out of instruction and just grab what ever he has to play, this is one of those pieces. It looks like he really enjoys piano and is trying to be better and better. Thanks again and have a good weekend!

  • You learned this yourself? Bravo! just watch out for your pulse and trill, and you'll be fabulous!

  • Yes, he was totally on himself from the first round sight reading till this this video taped ... good he did not know the grade level of this one, otherwise he might have been scared off LOL. Thanks for taking time to listen to him and commenting! Hope you find his later videos better.

  • Arthur- I too LOVE Clementi. I just played this not even 30 minutes ago. I struggle sometimes with measures 42-45 but you really kick it out!! Bravo! Thank you for sharing. Enjoy your musical journey.

  • Thank you! Although there is quite a few mistakes due to lack of instructions, Arthur was very happy that he made it this far before his B-Day. Have fun making music!

  • @Gunnycole rlly he's only six and ur only in grade four dnt hate on him!!!! Come on! He probably plays it better than u and he learned BY HIMSELF!!!!!!

  • I'm learning this peice at the moment, I'm 14 years old and at grade four and one of my teachers top students, Some mistakes, Needs more control over his dynamics and his staccato in some places needs some work. Other than that it's pretty good.

  • @fruitykiwixx Still a Baroque piece, I'm guessing, maybe I'm wrong.
