This version is for demonstration of Myanmar Classic Music's Piano Fingering Style in Key C. It might not be good to sing. Sandaya Aung Win played this music for his fans who are learning Myanmar Classic piano style on FB. Originally (Daw) May Shin sang with Key B-flat. The Key B-flat version will be uploaded on iMyanmar channel soon. Sorry for poor quality video by home-made unedited raw video version.

    Just one more point. I do not think sustaining pedal is necessary for this style of music. Although you would be using the pedal for Chopin's music, you would not use it for most of Baroque music.Also nothing wrong with playing like a pattala. Bela Bartok sometimes treated the piano like a percussion instrument. Before you reply to me, please remember I am also for trying different ways of playing myanmar music but our traditional style has an important place in our music culture.

  • @KMYIN1000

    Please do not forget that even in Western piano music, there are different styles- contrapuntal Baroque music, highly organised classical music, romantic piano music with use of sustaining pedals not to mention jazz piano etc. Our traditional piano music, as admirably and beautifully played by Sandaya Aung Win is a distinctive Myanmar style. If you get rid of the pre-conceptions you will have to admit that it is wonderful piano music. Just listen and enjoy our traditional style.

  • ma pyay det Oh: baung bin hka tal det. ;)

    I will follow pianist1500's example and will not answer to your reply anymore after this. There is no point in debating with someone who thinks Mozart is not that good (in spite of his wonderful operas and piano sonatas and piano concertos which are regarded as the best of the genre by musicians), who prefer single-line piano music to contrapuntal piano music and whose idea of harmony is less than rudimentary.

    It will be like playing harp to a bullock as the Burmese sayng goes.

  • @patrickcharm123 Your knowledge of harmony obviously is based on three-chord trick harmonisation of pop songs. I have been studying music theory and harmony twice a week at a music college for 7 years and still find harmony not easy. Music scholars even now wonder at the way Bach harmonised his chorals. When you maintain that western harmonisation is so simple, you not only revealed your ignorance but also showed that you are pretentious and talk as if you are familiar with western music. LOL.

  • @patrickcharm123 Who is prejudiced? In your comments to me and to pianist1500, you wrote that we will not be able to play this single-line melody without even knowing how we can play the piano and you have the cheek to advise us to learn international music and harmony. I learned piano in Rangoon first and I can play single-line melody as that was the way I was taught in Burma. After coming to England and learning to play harmony with the tune, I do not want to play single-line piano anymore.

  • @MMAsIngs If you have blind faith in that philosophy of urs, there's nth I can do to explain to you, but to let you go, mate. I dare you to play this song, but then again, being blind by all those egos and unwillingness to try out this piece, you probably be remain in ur cynical view.

    when i made my comment, i did not judge you with name, like you are juding me musical ignoramus, but look at you. U listen Beethoven and calling others name? Hope you get mature somedays.

  • @gottuvadyam

    I am not Eurocentric. I love all kind of music- just look at videos on my channel. Your comment about Bach, Mozart and Beethoven is so pathetic and stomach-churning that as a Myanmar

    I am really ashamed about a fellow Myanmar.

  • @patrickcharm123

    Judging from what you said, I know that when you listen to Beethoven's 5th symphony, you will not know that it started in C-minor and ends with C-major Chords, and in between there were modulations to distant keys with distant chords like Chords from A-minor ect. All this will pass you by. Your belief that western music harmonisation is only in the home key is really laughable. Just admit it- you are a musical ignoramus who like to talk about things you do not know.

  • @patrickcharm123 Hahaha, your knowledge about harmonisation is so limited and laughable. So you think that J S Bach, Mozart, Beethoven only used limited numbers of chords. You clearly need ear training because you do not hear the rich harmonisation and counerpoints.

    It is you, who need to be familiar with international music. Dont limit your knowledge of harmonisation by reading books that have titles like' play any song on rhythm guitar with 4 chords'. Hahaha.
