that poor second girl; either she didn’t practice enough, didn’t even know the music, or just simply got so nervous that she completely failed playing the piece. as an intermediate level pianist and percussionist, i can say that i have PLENTY experience with overwhelming nerves.
Yeah, I practice a lot for recitals, but I messed up bad one time (not as bad as her, and my piece was much more difficult). It was my first recital after quitting piano for 4-6 years and my whole body and hands were shaking. I was so agitated, and even with my piece out, I still screwed up. I was shaking like hell man, it felt so horrible 😔
It's horrible to put a professional pianist through that. I'm talking about the Mozart piano concerto #20 that was not the one she prepared for? How can an orchestra not give the right piece to the piano soloist? What a champ for saying : I can try 1:41 Wow, I would have walk out.
caroline professional concert pianists usually have around 40-60 concertos committed to memory. The D minor concerto is a staple of the repertoire. She could play it automatically if she had to.
@@bartwatts1921 Well the conductor seems to thinks it was a miracle that she took a minute and was able to play the concerto that she hadn't prepared for and do it without any mistake. Conductors should know? She seemed really shocked and lost for a moment. Are you a professional concert pianist?
@@bartwatts1921 Staple? Maybe to a specific group of people. I'm more inclined to believe Prokofiev and Rachmaninoff and chopin as a standard, But, the empty cadenza for this piece is always either beethoven or just never played. That to me is another indication this piece isn't common among pianists.
This happened to me and my teacher had to go over the whole piece with me... I got so embarrassed and cried after my lesson- I think in of quitting because my anxiety always gets the best of me, I'm not sure if I'm meant to be playing piano as a career.
@@aprilshowers193 Hey! Don't quit! Just relax, nobody is gonna kill you if you miss a note, and talk about it with your teacher, don't keep it all inside. You could play in front of your parents, friends, relatives to earn confidence.
she had prepared the wrong piece and hadn’t rehearsed with the orchestra before the performance. so when the orchestra started playing, they were playing a different piece to what she expected. luckily she knew the piece they were playing and her muscle memory kicked in and she was able to complete the performance.

That’s not at all what it sounds like when a piano is “broken”. A piano is a somewhat simple mechanical device, I can think of no malfunction that would make it suddenly play random notes. I would be very surprised if that were the answer. I also don’t think it’s him pretending to play. I think perhaps he plays a simple part and there might have been an embellishment track that was misfiring. They may still use midi for such things so that it can keep time with the band as opposed to the other way around. Some technology was just coughing up a digital lung. Sounds like a corrupt file. Either that or he pissed off some tech on the crew who sabotaged him to make him look foolish.😀 All speculation of course, but I do have some experience with such things.
Listening again, you can clearly hear the part he is playing and IT sounds fine... I now have a different theory, many bands use a “hidden” keyboardist or other musicians off stage and out of sight to help them produce a large sound that people expect and demand. I think perhaps it’s an intoxicated person who is backstage and decided to play along with the band while the secret keyboardist was away on a smoke break because he or she was not needed on this song! 😂 Honesty, that’s what it sounds like. Someone messing with him.
@@murdockscott the keys got stuck and the piano repetitively played the same notes. If it was a person backstage they would have been doing a whole lot more
Armando Morales I think we are gonna have to disagree on that. I have more than a little experience with music gear and performing myself and what you describe seems implausible to me. But who knows... I guess Yamaha did make digital player grand pianos at one point back when I was selling keyboards so I guess it could be one of those (or the newer equivalent) malfunctioning. But if that is this case, why does he have a piano onstage that can play itself on stage? As a performer myself, I personally would not agree to that. However... since pianos are often provided and not carried with the band from location to location (unless you are a very big act), so I guess it could have been a piano that was acquired locally and had digital player piano functions. But why plug it in to power? He does seem surprised by the whole fiasco. Typically though a standard piano is not capable of playing notes without someone striking the keys. Also, I guess it could be a “fake grand” a digital keyboard hidden inside a empty grand piano shell. That could explain what’s going on. It’s a fun mystery.😀

It’s the scariest feeling when you first come on stage. The mind plays games and for a while you have doubts about playing. But, after about 10 seconds the fear goes away.
@@ludwiggalaxy4277 I mean... you should be able to, unless you’re a beginner student. I still have every piece I’ve played for a recital in my memory, maybe with 1 or 2 areas I’d have to think for a few seconds. You don’t forget a pop song you know after a year.... so of course you wouldn’t forget a piece you’re proficient in!
I’m a professional pianist, and suffer from stage fright. It’s debilitating, but I think most of us get through it by saying “this too will pass” or “most people won’t notice a mistake.” But I think the biggest is “no matter what, people will eventually forget this ever happened and it’ll never bother me again.” The knowledge that my bad performance may be immortalized for life for comedy will haunt my dreams now 😭
If you have stuff memorized, my damage control is to quickly start playing some other piece hopefully seamlessly enough that the confused audience doesn't know what's going on!!!!! (Can't do that in a concerto though!)
Ugggh, playing solo recitals or having to play as a soloist is nerve racking. Playing within a band or with at least two or three other people really relieves you of a tremendous amount of pressure. You really need nerves of steel when performing solo. Playing solo at a cocktail party where everybody is milling about and not just sitting there in silence just looking at you isn't that bad either. But recitals....don't like them.
As a bassist, I can say I’ve never felt this pain. However I have failed a few chords on bass in front of people so I do know the tension feelings and stuff lmao
Well , we all have to start somewhere - I recall my first time performing before an audience - a solo french horn number - could barely hold the instrument save for the trembling - but got through and , on the positive side , found my inner strength as a performer 😌
Something very similar to the second one happened to my little sister a few days ago, actually. She was playing "We Shall Overcome" on the school piano in front of the whole middle school (400 people). The night before, she had been crying and stressing about the upcoming performance, as she hadn't been practicing at all!! Just as you thought her situation couldn't get much worse, right before she played, her teacher said she had to sing the song, too. She didn't know all the lyrics. But, you know what? She did amazing! She sang the song with incorrect (but not really noticeably incorrect) lyrics and played simple high notes and low notes that sounded like the song she scrambled to practice the night before. It really sounded great. Of course, some of my idiotic, waste-of-space classmates were chuckling about her shaky voice (and some even were trying to imitate it), but people like them are in every school performance. They're just some thirteen-year-old trolls who would mindlessly joke about anything. It was her first performance, and I am extremely proud of her. Afterward, she claimed she felt relieved that the whole thing was over and that *she did it*. And that is extremely commendable. "A journey of a thousand miles begins with one step" - Lao Tzu.
Any idea what went wrong with the piano? I'm sure it's not a real Grand Piano, but the body of one with a digital keyboard inside.... I'm wondering if some MIDI Strings or something were playing the wrong sound? Oh well that's technology!
The lady playing the Mozart number 20 scared me the most. I had a dream once that I was to perform for a full concert hall, but I hadn’t prepared properly and was uncertain with a few pieces. I was terrified. I woke up before I started playing!
All winners I reckon! Dude having a jam in a tube station, real beginner playing in front of loads of people and doing well, great pianist didn't have the sheet music, axel as fucked up as the equipment but able to see the funny side....all good stuff!
I saw Chick Corea break a piano string in the middle of an extended piano solo. He didn't even blink. Just kept building the solo for another 5-6 minutes, occasionally incorporating the broken string (G above middle C) into his solo as percussion.
La niña del #3 me dio mucha pena... Aunque al menos debería haber aprendido unas cuantas cosas en esos breves momentos: Pensar bien las notas del principio, antes de empezar, para situarse en el compás, no pasar delante del público sin dar la cara y saludar de frente a él al terminar. Ésta actuación pudo producir dos cosas en ella, rechazo absoluto a volver a pisar un escenario o considerar esa primera intervención como un primer paso en lo que se ha dado en llamar "tener tablas". Espero que tomase partido por la segunda opción... En todo caso, bien por ella, supo salvar la pieza del desastre absoluto. :)
I fell down the stairs after my piece in a piano recital and landed at the feet of the teacher's best student...I was so embarrassed. That was worse than having brain blanks during my song.
@@jessereeks8520 That's not the point. The point was that wasn't a performance. That was a guy walking up to the piano and playing the Entertainer. Yes he fell apart at the end, but that wasn't a performance. That clip shouldn't have been in the video.

P Nizzle No clue what you’re talking about, a children’s piano has chimes
P Nizzle Also it’s not an “1800s” piano I’m speaking of, all pianos have to be restrung that way, including modern ones, you can’t change the core principle of a piano.
I was there for the GnR concert, and I had no idea what was happening from my super far seats lol
The second one wasnt even a fail it was just so brilliant and a win for sure !!
I’m so proud about Maria Joao. She is just amazing. Love her💛
Axl Roses singing is even worse than the piano
Thing was that Axl rose acrually sang with good breath support but without grit that's all
Why do you say this?
lmao do u actually have any idea how good he is
F
@@nakkilama If he was really that good, he should have been able to play the song in other keys too. I think that's a pretty regular requirement if you're a professional music artist.
literally forgot my song at a recital once and cried for hours after
Aw that sucks :(
It’s the scariest feeling when you first come on stage. The mind plays games and for a while you have doubts about playing. But, after about 10 seconds the fear goes away.
That Axl clip actually had me crackin
When you practice for a year and then forget the song
EJ Tamayo can you remember a piece after a year? No.
@@ludwiggalaxy4277 I mean... you should be able to, unless you’re a beginner student. I still have every piece I’ve played for a recital in my memory, maybe with 1 or 2 areas I’d have to think for a few seconds. You don’t forget a pop song you know after a year.... so of course you wouldn’t forget a piece you’re proficient in!
This literally just gives me anxiety
I’m a professional pianist, and suffer from stage fright. It’s debilitating, but I think most of us get through it by saying “this too will pass” or “most people won’t notice a mistake.” But I think the biggest is “no matter what, people will eventually forget this ever happened and it’ll never bother me again.” The knowledge that my bad performance may be immortalized for life for comedy will haunt my dreams now 😭
Omg 0:55 I feel you..😭
If you have stuff memorized, my damage control is to quickly start playing some other piece hopefully seamlessly enough that the confused audience doesn't know what's going on!!!!! (Can't do that in a concerto though!)
Emily Redwone you feel her when she didnt bow down for the people who clapped
Same happened to me once, trying to play Rondo Alla Turca, horrible experience, I was so nervous that couldn't control my hands😑
I can relate to the man at the start that’s how that song sounds most of the time when I play it
🎄Great!!💎Merry Christmas!!🎁
There is no greater anxiety than failing a performance and then having to continue it
I thought she was ill, but that was an exquisite recovery for the Mozart. Bravo.
The 1st guy still played the Entertainer better than me.
Ugggh, playing solo recitals or having to play as a soloist is nerve racking. Playing within a band or with at least two or three other people really relieves you of a tremendous amount of pressure. You really need nerves of steel when performing solo. Playing solo at a cocktail party where everybody is milling about and not just sitting there in silence just looking at you isn't that bad either. But recitals....don't like them.
As a bassist, I can say I’ve never felt this pain. However I have failed a few chords on bass in front of people so I do know the tension feelings and stuff lmao
Well , we all have to start somewhere - I recall my first time performing before an audience - a solo french horn number - could barely hold the instrument save for the trembling - but got through and , on the positive side , found my inner strength as a performer 😌
Yeah Axl, blame the piano 🤣
So unfair making fun of the second person -
Once when I was playing I forgot the whole song and they had to bring the sheet music on stage, I cried so much and never had it happen again
Something very similar to the second one happened to my little sister a few days ago, actually. She was playing "We Shall Overcome" on the school piano in front of the whole middle school (400 people). The night before, she had been crying and stressing about the upcoming performance, as she hadn't been practicing at all!! Just as you thought her situation couldn't get much worse, right before she played, her teacher said she had to sing the song, too. She didn't know all the lyrics. But, you know what? She did amazing! She sang the song with incorrect (but not really noticeably incorrect) lyrics and played simple high notes and low notes that sounded like the song she scrambled to practice the night before. It really sounded great. Of course, some of my idiotic, waste-of-space classmates were chuckling about her shaky voice (and some even were trying to imitate it), but people like them are in every school performance. They're just some thirteen-year-old trolls who would mindlessly joke about anything. It was her first performance, and I am extremely proud of her. Afterward, she claimed she felt relieved that the whole thing was over and that *she did it*. And that is extremely commendable.

3:14 madre mia que hermoso
SrBill y cual fue el error ? No entendí
Shutup
@@gabrielmonterroso8395 no hubo error, ella improviso al final y le salió todo bien
I was never a huge fan of Axl, but I’ve seen G&R live, and I was specifically impressed with the way he played that song on piano.
Any idea what went wrong with the piano? I'm sure it's not a real Grand Piano, but the body of one with a digital keyboard inside.... I'm wondering if some MIDI Strings or something were playing the wrong sound? Oh well that's technology!
That first one 😂 don't give up keep practicing !!!
If you ever mess up something that you can't come back from, flip through the sheet music in confusion like it's missing a page
The cringe. I’d like to see TwoSet react to this.
I see a man of culture
Lol
I don’t consider Maria’s a fail though tbh, just a very big panic. She was still able to go through it like nothing happened
The lady playing the Mozart number 20 scared me the most. I had a dream once that I was to perform for a full concert hall, but I hadn’t prepared properly and was uncertain with a few pieces. I was terrified. I woke up before I started playing!
All winners I reckon! Dude having a jam in a tube station, real beginner playing in front of loads of people and doing well, great pianist didn't have the sheet music, axel as fucked up as the equipment but able to see the funny side....all good stuff!
y’all wrong for posting #3
The Guns&Roses clip had me in tears 🤣
I saw Chick Corea break a piano string in the middle of an extended piano solo. He didn't even blink. Just kept building the solo for another 5-6 minutes, occasionally incorporating the broken string (G above middle C) into his solo as percussion.
I would love to have seen that.
Oh man! The Guns n Roses piece had me in tears 😂😂😂
ITS KEVEN TABOT YEEEES
1:38. Heartbreaking x
Haha, the first one was so relatable. :D
4:12 “Stop. What the f*ck was that?” LOL 😂
2nd one needed more on the damper pedal
La niña del #3 me dio mucha pena... Aunque al menos debería haber aprendido unas cuantas cosas en esos breves momentos: Pensar bien las notas del principio, antes de empezar, para situarse en el compás, no pasar delante del público sin dar la cara y saludar de frente a él al terminar. Ésta actuación pudo producir dos cosas en ella, rechazo absoluto a volver a pisar un escenario o considerar esa primera intervención como un primer paso en lo que se ha dado en llamar "tener tablas". Espero que tomase partido por la segunda opción... En todo caso, bien por ella, supo salvar la pieza del desastre absoluto. :)
The second pianist was such an epic fail it reminds me of my own time as s piano player
I fell down the stairs after my piece in a piano recital and landed at the feet of the teacher's best student...I was so embarrassed. That was worse than having brain blanks during my song.
This made me sweat so much I had to take another shower.
The Axl rose one it was a error of the programation
That second clip creased me up
One time I played for my church when I first started playing piano with CZcams tutorials and had to wait for an ad LMFAO
Back in the old days, Axl would have destroyed that piano, kick some technicians ass, and walked of stage (in no particular order). End of concert.
That first one wasn't much of a performance as it was some guy trying to play a song and screwing up.
Ogany Supreme also it’s hard to play those block chords while standing and he was just having fun
@@jessereeks8520 That's not the point. The point was that wasn't a performance. That was a guy walking up to the piano and playing the Entertainer. Yes he fell apart at the end, but that wasn't a performance. That clip shouldn't have been in the video.
Hilarious video!😂😂😂
0:42 Me when the seminary teacher asks me to play the hymn
hi there i would be interested if you could tell me which is the name of the first song
Γειά σου, το λένε the entertainer
ευχαριστω παρα πολυ φιλε μου😀
Someone knows who is playing the piano at 5:20?
Believer
Believer
전승우 number one: that is the name of the piece, not the pianist. Second, you commented that twice and liked both of your own comments 😂
Sxdistic 😂😂
The same person who is singing. The piano broke.
That happened to me once,I played the wrong key and tried to fix during the process and made it worse
WHAT WAS THAT GUNS AND ROSES CONCERT SOOO DEAD LMAOO
I maybe laughd A LOT but i kinda feel bad for those ppl up there
Edit1: I messed up too at my first concert no lie :P
Edit2: The Second girl made me laugh so much i think she cant read the Notes correctly
What music piece is in the pls. 1:33
Mozart piano concerto no 20
The second one was stage fear + anxiety. Poor girl, can't blame her cause I know how it feels, as I've been in the same situation.
I thought the third one was from a movie, so amazed!
I felt so bad for Number 3
Gotta like kev tailbot
0:28 lol I’ve played on that piano it’s in the underground part of st Pancras
M.J.Pires plays the complete piano part of a Mozart concerto from memory; Axl Rose needs a teleprompter to sing his own songs.
You put a child’s recital on there. Shame on you!!!
EXACTLY!!!!!!!!!! it must have been so sad for her. poor girl! and now thousands of people have seen it.
lol
But it was a really big fail
that is 100% not a child
@@BOT_Ivan what? yes she is
if axl one was in 1992... :D
Second one hurt the most
Its a nightmare for piano players to forget your music while playing it
