    I bought a violin, bow, rosin etc. the other day - then an hour or two later a video popped up in my feed from SCMP about this girl in China who practiced violin bow technique with pencils and juice cartons because she couldn't afford a violin. Made me think how lucky we are just to go and buy what we need as musicians, when there are so many dreamers out there who just can't afford it. Hopefully this charity of yours will make a difference, hey!

      My private piano and music theory teacher told me that she didn't have a piano at home when she was in school, so her dad took measurements and sort-of "drew" a piano on a table for her to practise

    Brahms Piano Concerto No.1 in d minor, Op.15, is my top favourite piano concerto amongst many other magnificent works by great composers.

  • @mariyapianoworld
    @mariyapianoworld Před 3 lety +7

    When I work with metronome, usually I just mark the notes, without using any expressions. This way I can see where I delay or I'm too fast. I hope this suggestion will help you. I have been playing in many chamber ensembles, with which I used to play one rehearsal just before a concert. And also when I played with an orchestra. I usually have only one or max to rehearsals...

    Wish my problems were posture and flow! You're so graceful when playing. I learn piano tough I'm not a classical musician. Right now I'm learning The Show Must Go On by Queen and it's really hard to play it more quickly.
    Also, I really hated the metronome when I first started (specially the beat) and now I actually use it and it really helps.

    My brain keeps filling in the orchestral parts when you practice this.
    I love it.
    To this day it is a total headscratcher that this concerto was a resounding failure at its world premiere.
    If you listen to the Hardy Rittner recording you'll have an idea how it must have sounded.
    How could this fall on deaf ears? It is definately one of the best concertos ever written.

    Hey Tiffany
    I've been thinking about how I found your channel. I checked in your archive - it was a little more than 2 years ago! And I remember sitting on my grandparent's balcony in the sun browsing through CZcams and finding your Vlog. My grandfather died a couple of weeks ago and my grandmother doesn't live in the house any more. But there is still this specific memory I hold dearly. It's one of the moments you come back to years later and realize that they were actually precious even though in the moment itself you were just sitting on a balcony with your grandpa.
    Thank you for creating memories :)
    Also I hope this doesn't read too cringe, just wanted to get this off my chest probably.

    Squirrels are funny...That's what I do almost every day: I sit on the roots of a very big tree for around 20 minutes and relax (meditate) It recharges my batteries. I love that tree. A metronome can help you to achieve Benedetti Michelangeli's level of technical perfection. It can be a little boring (you can easily fall asleep on the piano) and It doesn't seem to help musically too much (mostly at slow tempo). However (paradoxically?) a high level of technical perfection can, in my opinion, stimulate your creative and musical side of the brain (soul). It's always pleasant (stimulating) to listen to Michelangeli's immaculate interpretations...Practice it mechanically first, with the metronome. Once it is perfect and you can play it even faster than you'll play it the day of the concert, you can focus fully on the interpretative approach (musical aspect). It's easier with classical and baroque pieces... Yeah, recording yourself and listening to it helps a lot to understand what you want to do with the piece but it's better to do it once the piece has been studied to perfection... Fundraising / helping others, good deed 👍 ... 🎹
