  • Yes, and you're absolutely right - it isn't very easy at any speed.

  • wow this was fantastic. ive been playing for 12 years and i just discovered chopins etudes and i really wanna get started on this one though its definately overwhelming. either way great job the noise is a bit distorted cuz of the camera but all in all it is excellent!

  • Thanks much for the undeserved praise, Nick! If you're just starting the etudes I'd recommend a few of the lighter ones to get you up to speed (literally & figuratively) like Op 10 No's 9,10 & 12 & Op 25 No's 1,7, & 10. This one is of medium difficulty IMHO and should be tackled, I think, after one has about a half dozen of the others under one's belt. Good luck.

  • might not be good, but better than me. how long did it take you to learn this?

  • Well, I learned the notes in like a week. But playing it right can take years and years. As you can see, I still cannot play it, even after 30. But you might have better luck, sppe. Keep on trying. Don't give up.

  • how did you work on this? it was great to me, although not perfect to others. cos im attempting this too! dun have a teacher now though, self study.

  • Julia, I'm not really the person to be asking this question because the others are right-I do a terrible job. I'm glad you liked it, though. But I will tell you that in practice, you should follow 3 golden rules: "slow, slow, & slow" & make sure your arms are supple, not tight. You definitely need a teacher at this level. Try to get one. Thanks much & may good fortune follow you always.

  • op. 25 no. 10 is the octave one right?

    That one isn't very easy at normal speed...

  • Nor should you ever want to, Tomoliena. I mean this is a blurry, over-pedaled mess of a performance without any musical redeeming qualities. I commend your courage for tackling such a daunting piece. Good luck. incidentally, V. Igoshina is one of my fav pianists too. She starred in a movie, "The Mystery of Chopin" several years ago and performs lots of Chopin's music in it. Check out my Revolutionary Etude here. I'm a little more proud of that. Bye!

  • Im learning this piece but I can't play like you.
