@@trebleclef9844and piano isn’t just about playing the notes. the sound quality, how u press, how you move your wrist to make the sound resonate, how to pedal to capture the right pause and right emotion…. it seems easy to many non pianists but as someone majoring in music it’s a pain in the ass
Having never really looked into how moonlight sonata is written, this video makes me understand how simple the genius of beethoven actually was. The concept of 3rd movement is about the same logic of the 1st movement! (but crazier and harder and and and)
Ik that I’ve been playing piano for a while, but not that long. I’ve only been playing piano for about 7 months and almost mastered it after only practicing for a day.
these very arpeggios give me ptsd because i can literally play la campanella and chopin waterfall etude easily but for some reason these specific arpeggios are impossible for me to make clean
Adding on to this, play the arpeggio in chords when you're figuring out the tempo, saved me hours of practice. Also (idk rly how to explain this) but every third chord, move your wrists so that your thumb is closer to the bottom edge of the piano, kinda like an in and out motion, it really helped me with making sure my hands stayed loose and I could play at that tempo without missing notes.
You should relax your thumb more when you press 4 notes together at the beginning of the video. You can clearly see how much you squeezed your thumb’s mcp joint inwards.
The time it takes depends on your mental piano skills as well. If you can mumble the name of each tone or just some sounds like di-pi-di-pi... with a certain speed you can also play it with that speed. If your fingers don't follow this method just try to figure out the best technique for your specific hand where you have 100 % control. Afterwards just increase the speed day by day.
@@Abreu24 its english it means "Liszt >>>>> chopin, Beethoven, Bach, Mozart, Debussy, Rachmaniov, Scott Joplin, Händel, Wagner, Pachelbel, Vivaldi, Paganini, etc..
The interesting part about this is that this is not how the Beethoven moonlight arpeggios actually are. The first three notes are simply the ending of the first arpeggio and the arps really start on the pinky. Practicing it this way is generally helpful but it will keep the emphasis on the wrong note (thumb) rather than the pinky (right note to emphasize.
It was only yesterday I discovered a new fingering, which coincidentally is the same as this one in the video..half of the time I'm still playing my old fingering due to muscle memory, leading to some wrong notes due to awkward stretching. I used 1 2 4 5 as my technique weren't as smooth last time, instead of 1 2 3 5. I'll admit I'm not ready for this piece but I'm going to learn it anyways.
This is not the fingering I would use. For people with average hands use 1-2-4-5 on the second inversion or even the first inversion. This fingering is better imo
