I'm actually quite surprised that there are people playing bumblebee for a grade 8 exam when literally it is an LTCL level repertoire. Anyway Congratulations on your distinction ;)
We can see you worked very hard to obtain the Distinction. Your playing certainly reflected the mark. A hugh congratulations to you and your teacher 👍👍🎶🎹🎼🙂
Well done playing the flight of the bumblebee. What a legend. Even I did this long before my channel has started. Excellent. Even the comments for that, it looks perfect and it is in the same perfection and pace as Lydian Nadhaswaram, the pianist who plays the same song but he play around the same tempo as yours
Hi! Really enjoyed the performance! As I am also taking my grade 8 exam, I am just wondering if you had showed the book of your own choice piece to the camera as well? Thanks.
bit late but loved the video im actually going to be taking the grade 8 test and the same 2nd and 3rd pieces as you, hopefully i can perform as well as you did really loved the playing though!
Hi, congratulations on obtaining a distinction. I noticed that your own choice piece was under the stipulated timing ( 3 minutes for G8 ) - were you penalised for that?
@@EddiePianoMusic The penalty will not be mentioned in the examiner’s comments. I know someone who lost three marks because the own choice piece was under the stipulated time. This was conveyed to the teacher via email.
@@lstan4573 Ahhh,, i did not receive any such email. I dont think it is ever strictly 3mins in music. Just a guideline, as long as its not too short or long.
The exams now are easy compared to before. There is no point only playing songs as in piano scales are the basis of playing and sight reading and listening is also very important. Getting Distinction isnt as hard as before as you can just record how many times you want. Good effort Though, Congrats on that
yeah, i totally agree. i did grade 8 piano in 2018, and achieved a distinction, but the syllabus and format was quite difficult. now, everything has changed and it’s significantly easier to achieve the highest grade.
Im about to start an ameb tutor after doing normal piano tutors my old teacher said i was around ameb 8 could you please tell me what and how many pieces are assessed for ameb 8? thank you
why would you wear a suit for this, just record it in your pyjamas or something! Thanks for sharing the examiner feedback, good to know that the judges are quite lenient
Okay. Where is your playing or performance which is better? You don't have a prove for this ???? Don't be jealous !!! Be honest be happy for his achievement Very wired!!??
Before you go around gratuitously criticizing people you don't know, you should put in a minimum amount of work yourself to actually read what was written. But I suppose the people who are meanest tend to be the insecure ones who are lacking themselves. Firstly, this wasn't the program he submitted; it was a trial run. Secondly, it wasn't a "narrowly gotten distinction" (as if that even matters); he had 5 points to spare. But most importantly, have some respect for a young person who put themselves out there for the world to see. If you're going to offer criticism, first make sure it actually applies, and second do it in a way that doesn't make people immediately despise your existence.
Arm chair trolling does you no favours. A young person who has put his heart and soul into his music. Nasty comments like this are totally unnecessary.
