Here’s me playing some Debussy! I might upload another take to clean things up. Anyway, Enjoy Arabesque! #pianomusic #piano #pianocover #classicalpiano #classicalmusic #claudedebussy
I just wanted to say that the fact that you uploaded this version even if you had that little mistake at the final part, helps me a lot as a pianist. I'm always concerning about everything being perfect, and you're being a reminder that no matter the mistakes, we can share beautiful interpretations. Thanks a lot.
I can relate to being a perfectionist in both piano and drawing. In a performance you don’t want to stop if you make a mistake but you gotta role with it. It makes the music a little more human rather than playing perfect. Playing everything right is expected and that’s boring. So thats my long take haha. I’m glad you liked the video
Thanks so much! Learning this piece can range from days weeks or even years depending on where you’re at in your playing. I would practice the song by breaking it down into sections playing VERY slow one hand at a time. When you can play it at that speed then try it a bit faster and try adding both hands. Hope this helps!
@@joaovieira6863Clark de lune is definitely much easier in my opinion, getting the polyrhythms spot on in this is very difficult compared to clair de lune which doesn’t really have any polyrhythms
That is one beautiful piano just right for Debussy's music and one sensitive interpretation. I will return for inspiration when I decide to tackle this piece and its polyrhythms.
Thanks! Coming across a public piano is so fun and i bet I’ve played this. I got most of it down. Maybe I’ll work on memorizing it all. It just takes practice. Thanks for watching!
I saw on your profile that you are self-taught, how long have you been playing? Playing this piece is my dream! I only have 8 months of practice and I'm also self-taught, hence the question Beautiful performance ❤
I’ve been playing like since I was ten so a little over a decade. Im mostly self taught started learning by ear and worked up to reading sheets. Thanks for asking
Hey thx for liking my music! Right now my songs are momentarily private on RU-vid because I would like to copyright them before I make them public again. Once that’s done I got much more projects in store! :) Edit: You can view summer was here on my Instagram at Instagram.com/tommyhofmeyer
Wow, you played this beautifully! This is really helpful for me as I'm struggling with fingerings in some areas. How do you do the pedaling for this piece? I'm confused when to use the pedal for this piece.
Thanks for watching! That’s a good question. Typically you want to pedal when you play a new chord do the sound doesn’t mush all muddy. As to fingering that takes practice getting down the muscle memory. I always am writing down the fingering and chords that are a struggle. Good luck learning the piece!
One of my favorite Debussy piano works. Always seemed a shame he didn't give this one a descriptive title because it is another one of his beautiful float away, dreamy pieces that warrants a title more than s style indicator. Maybe "Water Sprites"?
You’re right, I’m a beginner learning this and from what I can play, He seems to be guessing, and relying on the sheet music which is fine as it proves his sheet reading skills.
