Ayaan Ghauri Yeah did you really expect to see tutorials on this channel? Only because you make tutorial videos, it doesn’t mean that others have to do it too. And yeah, he plays better than you. But how germans would say: Nicht verzagen, bleib dran
So many of the beautiful pieces I love are here. I never really thought about them being sad , I 've just admired the talent of the composers, and enjoyed listening to every note. Feeling bless I can hear!
agree on the "not sad", to me, most are calm and actually slightly hopeful. It's like a "yes now it may be a bit sad, but it will get better soon"-vibe in them for me.
@@walidmarmal4509just because they are in major keys doesn’t mean happy, all about context. It’s a very basic theology that major means happy and minor means sad.
I find them melancholic, but not sad... I'm not crying to any of these...but maybe that's because I don't know much about classical music or the stories behind each pieces...
As funny as you come off with your content and personality, you play so beautifully. My piano teacher always wondered why my playing sounded best only at certain times. She didn’t know those were the always the saddest times for me. I hope you’re doing well.
One thing that fascinates me about Chopin and always have since I was a child, is that the man had the ability to put into notes his feelings. You can hear in the notes the desperation, the sadness, happiness - all the emotion he wanted to express when there was no microphone and all we had was 5 lines to write music on.
My 3 year old with autism absolutely loves this video. She loves piano and these songs calm her down , sending her right to sleep with a little smile on her face ❤ Update: She is 4 now and has a fantastic ear for music. She has been teaching herself to play by pressing keys and repeating the note/sound with her mouth. It is absolutely wonderful to see and hear. Lessons starting soon! Maybe she will be this talented one day ❤
imma be honest, I came here to decide my funeral music. I have probably 60 more years so it won't be for now, but I know I want peaceful classical music to play bc I think my kids will feel better
@@lovelondon806 I see it as a pensive sadness. Kinda like how you feel on a rainy day. Not happy but not totally depressed either, if that makes sense.
I got my piano 10 years ago, which is like an awkward teenager of you started as an adult. At about 25 years, you really settle into being a musician on that instrument. And you start over if you switch instruments, too. So, trust me, looking can't help me...lol. I'm still a mess. I still play live and look down and the keyboard and go "Who the hell are you guys?" I STILL make mistakes. Idgf, but I still make 'em.
I wouldn't say Clair de Lune or Gymnopedies are actually sad, they are nostalgic, full of longing, but not really sadness. Maybe more of what is called "saudade" in Portuguese.
@@yourclassics5115 Which means nothing in terms of sadness. It's just a notation from the time they couldn't send you a Whatsapp to explain. Also, Satie was well know for his jokes about conventions (e.g. Three Pieces in the Shape of a Pear). Finally, we'd have to consider whether it's "one of the 10 saddest songs for piano". Bach's "Come Sweet Death" comes to mind.
@Samuli Karjalainen: I don't find either sad, Gynmopedie reminds me of flowers and springtime. Satie's Gnossienne however is very melancholic, supposed to be about the Cretan myth of the Minotaur and Ariadne and Theseus, but I think its a very gothic sounding tune and think its appropriate for what's happening at the moment.
I don't know why I like sad songs, they take me away from this ending world in still tranquility and soulful peace. Thank You for your knowledge on these songs and piano skills. I would've never found them on my own.
It seems like you still just little kids :) . It cares what age he is at . Because it says in which generation he is . I argue whit you . I only see and hear these new generations listening to Rap or Pop and other ...
A good pianist does not use sheet while performing. Sheet music is for learning, transcribing and playing casually. Pianists are supposed to reflect their souls into the pieces, not read from a paper like a casette player. As a player, looking at sheets while performing feels very restrictive since sheets dictate a lot of aspects to your playing and as an engineer, I fail to ignore them ie gotta get that tempo right, oh it is an 8th so I must get it exactly as it is, must obey the metronome in my head, here comes legato cant use pedal... There are no 8ths, legatos, pedal dictations, tempo and forte restrictions when there is no sheet. It is music, purely filtered through your soul. When I used to arrange, I always transcribed last to my liking (piano is not my first instrument obviously). Soul comes first.
Vinheteiro,Can I get a heart? Your biggest fan here! Your piano videos make me happy everytime and your Ideas are awesome!! Literally, there's no one like you!
1:39 I feel like I could listen to this while on a rainy day and I'm sipping some good coffee/tea while looking out the window. I could just.... f e e l it
It reminds me to Korean/Japanese drama somehow...but I don't know why or which one... I don't even watch many Korean/Japanese drama...in fact I'm not a fan of drama or TV series at all...
Nocturne’s aren’t sad, they’re supposed to be romantic in a nostalgic sort of way. They just sound sad compared to all the heavily rhythmic and bombastic stuff that’s common these days.
Those are some grand piano pieces. Not really sad, but they DO give off a gloomy atmosphere with a faint glimmer of hope as the keys March among the canvas.
Estava há horas tentando descobrir o nome da música e do autor que me emocionam tanto e finalmente encontrei você tocando... obrigada a você e a Chopin - Nocturne nº 2!!!! As demais músicas são lindíssimas!!!
Clair de lune is more of a melancholic piece, rather than a sad one. Debussy created as an impersionism genre piece. Just my opinion. The piece seems more dreamy and happy rather than a depressing and a sad one.
Im dn totally agree with u, i think its like he want to manifest the past years with all the things in his life... like saddest and happst ones, i think that song was made to remember memories.
For me ist also doesn‘t feel sad it kinda feels like you are in a big world all alone and at the beginning you are happy but then you realize something ist missing you don‘t know what you search all day you are just looking around everywhere but you don‘t even know for what you are looking it is just traumatic and then it got dark and you go to the window and cry because you feel so empty and something ist missing you still don‘t know what is missing and you just look at the window and cry all night
Definetly agree. When I hear Clair de lune I always picture an old person sitting on a rocking chair reflecting on their life and being happy from all the memories created over the years
I can almost read that... its like.... kind of spanish... uuum... es una alegria saber que ( im not sure here) en Brasil hay personas de buen gusto con la musica. No va a parar de llover? Is that what he said? i literally read it in spanish and wrote it o.0
@@Insomniac_Hart I'm a portuguese Native speaker and I can say that our language is pretty similar to spanish but harder. Portuguese speakers are capable to understand Spanish when spoken, it is kinda easy but spanish speakers can't understand portuguese pretty well when spoken. It is due to the fact that my language present more variety of sounds hence we understand them a lot, despite it's very comprehensive when written to each other.
Somos cada vez um grupo menor, Marcelino. Não dá Pra reverter essa onda com a mídia toda trabalhando contra….. que pena! Quanta gente perdendo chance de conhecer obras magníficas ….
@@Yushun-e4i That's not a man thing, lol, that's just a him thing. XDD He basically admitted to being a psychopath in his 13 Types of Pianists video, too, so... XD
For Clair de Lune, I feel sad and like there is something missing inside my little mind. I just find Clair de Lune full of sorrow, sadness, journey of emotion and intensity yet so soft. It touches my soul being a musician that can feel the emotion coming out of the notes..
Clair De Lune is the kind of song that can be played for a calming moment or a sad one. The kind of song you play at the end of a sad movie, some joke and even say it’s the song that will play at the Credits when the end of the world happens; but it is not played for its sad or calm tones, it is played because it is a song with ups and downs, picks up and slows down, just like life. And that’s why some find it happy, some find it sad, and some find it soothing; it’s kinda like your perception on life.
My recommendation for best sad music's on piano: 1. Valsa da Dor - Villa Lobos 2. Prelude op.28 no.4 - Chopin 3. Valse triste - Liszt/Cziffra 4. Concert no.2- mov II - Shostakovich 5. Goyesca no.4 - Granados
@@mauriliocarmo7973 É mesmo, que bom que estou a tocar piano ainda, aprendendo mas melhorando né?! Se tivesse mais gente como antigamente que apreciavam as boas coisas da vida, seria muito melhor.
@@alexandreneto7392 vous gringo! Chopin touche l'âme car il apporte la vie plumeuse au-dessus. Une vie suit une aventure avec la musique exquise. La salive fait une échelle vers le ciel.
Touching/Sad pieces which I know: F. Liszt - "Un Sospiro" (S. 144, No. 3), etc. C. V. Alkan - "Le Vent" (Op. 15, No. 2), "Nocturne" (Op. 22), "50 ans" from "Grande Sonate: Les Quatre Âges" (Op. 33), etc. N. K. Medtner - "Skazki (Fairy Tales)" (Op. 20; Op. 26, No. 1), "Sonata Reminiscenza" from "Vergessene Weisen" (Op. 38, No. 1) F. F. Chopin - Piano Sonata No. 2 (Op. 35), 3rd movement
I don't find "Clair de Lune" sad. I find it more... relaxing. Everytime I hear this song, I think of Ocean's 11 end scene. It feels more like nostalgia to me.
A lot of these songs, I've never actually perceived to be sad, but I think it really depends on how you want to interpret it yourself. Especially nocturne no.2, I've always thought it was about pure happiness and joy that brings tear.
I've been searching through videos like these for about half an hour and finally found the song I was looking for after remembering it was sad. Videos like these are life savers.
@@nameless7546 It's been a while. I think I was either talking about Debussy Arabesque or Debussy Rêverie. I didn't know the song, but the tune was stuck in my head at the time.
I always thought of Clare de Lune as more. Hopeful and defiant than sad, the feeling I get from is is “yeah things are bad and there’s reason to be sad but I am not going to be sad” Gymnopedie is the exact opposite, it just screams the utter despair of loneliness. Concerto no 21 will be and forever be a happy song to me because of Casio. You can’t be sad. When you boost the tempo to 150 percent and make it a bagpipe.
Nice pieces! Thank you. For me, some of the saddest pieces are 1.Mozart concerto #23 the second movement (Adagio), 2.Barber is Adagio for Strings, and Jean Sibelius, Valse Triste
What are you talking about, @Nightmare Symphony? It is one of the saddest pieces going and far sadder than any of these. You must have an unsophisticated ear.
reverie is my absolute favourite. sends chills down my spine when he starts the F1 legato. One of the few songs that actually impact you in todays music
