From personal experience, dissociation on stage was a quite frightening for me, and to see that you have experienced that as well makes me less insecure about my experience. We are all human and Im so thankful that you share your personal experiences with us. ❤️
I loved the edit on this one! The piano decision, cutting in little Tiffany playing the same piece, the soft outro with the lovely animals... All the feels 😺. Thank you for your continued efforts in sharing your journey with us.
I am on a train in Switzerland listening to the Schumann Diaries for at least the 100th time. They are so beautiful. Thank you. Hope to enjoy you once on a concert 🤗
I love the retrospective photos of Tiffany the little kid next to the grown up Tiffany. Such a testament to your dedication and how you continue to KEEP STRIVING! ❤🎉
The piano you chose indeed has such a bright and dynamic tone, delightful!! It's surprising how different pianos even from the same brands can be so different. I guess part of it has a to do with the action, the state of the felt on the hammers? Anyways exciting! And you play the music so beautifully...so nice to hear many familiar pieces playex expertly!
As a boy I had the joy of playing on our own Steinway at home, and I will never forget the force and power of the low end and the pearly mid highs, so I was saying "A1 A1" as you were picking your piano, but you chose wiser for such a large hall. It's interesting how much you listen to each instrument and the hall as well and talk to them. It's like a dialogue, or a dance.
dear Tiffany, aww so sorry to hear you were sick, but to me it feels that musically you were in excellent shape! thanks so much for another beautiful pre-concert video.
Sean Rafferty is a wonderful broadcaster - aswell as being a good interviewer, he has made a real point on In Tune of providing encouragement and exposure to young and interesting artists, for decades now. We are lucky to have him.
I was so excited when you came to London! I wasn't sure what to expect but I have to say your ravel was outstanding. As it built every noise in the hall fell away and as I was swept along I saw the stage shifting and warping, as if you were on the ocean. It was an experience like no other and is a testament to your virtuosity. It goes to show how a live performance can transcend any other experience. I hope you come back to London again!
My friend and I came up to see you Tiffany. You were absolutely phenomenal, the Ravel was the best I’ve ever heard. Nobody would ever have guessed that you were feeling under the weather whilst you were playing! Also, you know you’ve made it as a pianist when you get 4 pianos with 2 actions each to choose from 😂😂
Love this video Tiffany, so interesting to see your process in selecting the piano and the depth of critique you brought to the process. You made a very wise choice and tamed the piano beautifully during the concert. I think your performance of la valse will live in my memory always, simply outstanding. Great saying hello to you afterwards despite having to run for my train home (well worth it!). Please come back to the UK soon (try up north, lots of great places here!).
Can't begin to tell you how much I appreciate this video! This sequence of choosing the right piano, tipping us off to what you're thinking and hearing educated me and I found myself nodding and understanding. That felt so good to be back into the music again, from this esoteric yet essential level. I also found myself moved, feeling what you felt, feeling what you went through, the little flashbacks to the little you, the feelings about the homemade congee... Well. Moved. I do so love hearing music from the inside, the way you do these things for us.
Amazing video. I also very much liked the piano comparison part. I would love more videos focused on this part of preparation for a concert. Thank you, Michael
Beautiful piano music with Tiffany ! I would have been very happy to go to the concert. Schumann 'Papillon' and Ravel 'Valse' exquisite and well chosen Chopin and Bach. I should send you flowers !
My school’s music department piano was a Danemann. Haven’t played one in over ten years! Saw you at Southbank - your preludes were impeccable. Loved the whole performance and very happy to finally get to see you live.
Oooh well done. I enjoyed your vlog, especially all the musicy bits with commentary. I felt so sorry for you getting that cold right at the wrong time!
This was a fantastic video! Thank you for sharing and congratulations on your performance! I find it so admirable that you were so strong through your cold, I can’t work and be sick! You have super powers! 🙌🙌
I briefly worked as a small venue sound set-up guy for minor-league pop/jazz gigs. I also played drums, often w/partial house drum kits (especially while on the road). And was a record label touring band manager for a minor artist. I really appreciate the whole potential "saga" of decision-making/etc... involved in meeting the instrument you must play just before your performance! Very impressive.
I don't know how I missed this video until now! 😭 Thanks again for a truly amazing concert. I was in the 3rd row! This video really demonstrates just how much care and attention you give to picking a piano that enabled you to give such a memorable experience to your audience! ❤😘 - @14:54 "I scream, you scream" - we all love ice cream 🍦 😂🤣
Such a different focus from Dublin. Doubt free, focus is on the hall, choosing the right piano, getting the set up just right, so that you can perform your program confidently. And apparently you succeeded much to the delight of your audience. Wish I could have attended. Congrats Tiffany! On to Amsterdam!
Wonderful to hear you on Radio 3! Only the very best musicians are invited onto the 'In Tune' programme - Sean Rafferty is a great presenter and very good at introducing young artists to a wider audience.
Thank you so much for this video! So insightful and interesting to hear (and see) about the BBC radio & piano testing for the concert. Sorry to see that you were ill. I loved the way that you played everything & I loved the tempo and feel of the Bach - particularly prelude no2. Stunning stuff!
I absolutely love these videos! They always brighten my day so much, and not only make me so happy to see you living your dream, but also gives me hope that as a young musician(16yrs-Classical+jazz guitar), I too someday May live my dream! I truly hope to be able to see you perform live someday! Thanks for everything!
Dear Tiffany, You poor lady, catching that dreadful Cold just before the concert. But great professional that you are you seem to have aced it. I would love to have been there. I’ve followed your progress off and on since your Juilliard days. This video was brilliant. Thank-you for hours of enjoyment watching and listening to your mastery of the bestest of all the musical instruments.
I hope that you liked London as much as London liked you. Perhaps one day you will be back here to appear in the Proms, before what is arguably the most enthusiastic classical music audience.
Oh my goodness I didnt know you got dizzy and almost fainted on the morning of the debut. This makes me appreciate the concert 100x more cos you did amazingly despite what you went through. Praise Jesus!
Bravo ma belle pianiste! What courage and concentration despite this flu! I hear more Chopin less Schumann. A ravel, here's a piece that fits you like a glove. I find that you have this delicacy and sensitivity for more French repertoire, Debussy (petite suite), and perhaps le carnaval des animaux of St-Saēns. I follow your career progress and send you my wishes of success. Bravo ma belle!
I'm so annoyed I won't be able to attend the Amsterdam debut... They've got you a great venue though. The Muziekgebouw is very nice (try to get as high up as they'll let you to see the sunset). Just get/keep the Concertgebouw on your list of venue to play.
I appreciate that you're a very busy lady - and I simply adore your latest Schumann release; a more spiritually satisfying recording of the Op. 15 Kinderszenen I have yet to hear! - but I would like to make a humble suggestion for a future recording, if I may be so bold. The only recording of Schumann's Piano Sonata No. 1 that is worth listening to, IMHO, was by Annie Fischer... but that was recorded many moons ago and she preferred live recordings to anything "studio-bound" as she put it. It's a very beautiful and youthful little piece of pianistic enchantment that really needs a modern interpretation to make its magic more widely known... and I think you are just the Schumann devotee to make it happen. All the very best to you... and I simply can't wait for your next release! Impatiently waiting, M. Lee Davis
Thank you again Tiffany, you were great! I was so happy to meet you! I remember you mentioning that you were a bit sick but it wasn't noticeable at all. I'm also in the video, twice! I'll cherish this memory forever :D
In a fugues Exposition the first theme always appears in the tonic as the subject (in German it’s called "dux" , which is Latin for leader) and is then followed by a second theme-entrance , the answer, on the dominant ( in German it’s called the "comes" (Latin for companion)). The comes/ answer imitates the theme of the dux either "real" (exactly the same Intervalls as in the dux, just one fifth above) or tonal (slightly different Intervalls, so that the answer stays in the same key). Usually the other voices follow again in the tonic or dominant, the exposition is complete, when each voice has had one entrance.
It was fun guessing which option you chose among the myriad of options you were given while watching you try them all out. The differences were actually pretty perceptible. Glad to see all went well, even though you were under the weather. Fighting the urge to cough, which disrupts flow, must have been a struggle. Surely the congee soup your parents gave you was the much-needed warm relief to get through it. Good luck with your next concert.
19:12 what a gorgeous sixties pop-art design! I love this place immediately. the cat was a sister at heart. (or was it a brother?) the ducks and swans and other animals are some spiritual part of the dharma in this, like the Totem animals to the native Americans. they make me feel good and soothed.
Hey Tiffany iam a aspiring pianist in highschool rn and I wanted to ask you for some tips for going pro i have been watching your videos recently and i am addicted i love how you show the reality of this life style great work love from miami ❤
Stoic performance Tiffany ! The USA embassy at nine elms has the inscription 'Greater love hath no man than the love of God " and I think you do well to search for the piano that sings out. You are welcome to Waltz with me, though I am not very good !
Make sure bring some vitamin C with you and it helps when you start feel like catching a cold. That's how I learned from the tour guide last year in Itlay with a bus full with 40 people. It helped me couple months ago in Dublin for fast recovery in few hours. Have a safe trip and hope you enjoy Amsterdam 🙉 🤗
Tiffany - that was really amazing. My son has been following you and really admire your playing and personality. I hope you can look him up - Haru Mikawa. He currently does his own original composition.
Hi Tiffany! I know you probably don’t take requests but could you PLEASE learn op 24 no 2 mazurka in C major by chopin? Its a very beautiful and short piece!
Apologies for the late comment, but I was there at the concert and enjoyed it very much! Unfortunately I couldn’t make it to the CD signing as I had jury duty (murder and kidnapping charges, we ruled guilty). Was definitely worth the commute in and out of London 👍🏴
I AM GLAD FOR YOU THAT YOU DID WELL AT THE CONCERT. IF YOU HAVE AN ORANGE A DAY IT WILL HELP KEEP COLDS AND FLU AWAY. ORANGES HAVE SOMETHING SPECIAL IN THEM WHICH DOES HELP PREVENT COLDS AND FLU. I LEARNT THIS FROM MY MOTHER MANY YEARS AGO.
I was at the concert and enjoyed every moment. Thank you for a phenomenal performance 👍
Thank you for coming! Glad you enjoyed it! ❤️

I went to your London debut and it was truly amazing!!! Please do come and perform in London again ❤
Aww I don't know why exactly, I teared up watching this ❤ 🎉 Congratulations!
Aww thank you for following my journey 🥰
These videos are so up close and personal, so intimate. Greatly appreciated 😊😅

You sound great. Thanks for producing and sharing with the world.
Oooh well done. I enjoyed your vlog, especially all the musicy bits with commentary. I felt so sorry for you getting that cold right at the wrong time!
I can watch your vlogs hours on end they’re sooo comforting and the way you give personality to the pianos is so cute 🥹😇
Well done, I liked that you stuck with Steinway. The old saying ‘you gotta dance with the one that brung ya’.
This was a fantastic video! Thank you for sharing and congratulations on your performance! I find it so admirable that you were so strong through your cold, I can’t work and be sick! You have super powers! 🙌🙌

Congratulations!!!!!!
My favourite concert
I love the Chopin and animals at the end. Woah. Wiping tears.
Hey just stumbled upon ur channel and really like it! Even got a little nervous as the debut approached closer lmao. Feels so real. Keep rocking on!

Some really great, informative and picturesque edits in this video. Loved the inserts of when you were small!
Best piano performance ive ever seen
I had no idea piano actions could be swapped out, so cool! Great video and sorry you were sick. You played lovely regardless.
You speak sooo well !! Too 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
How I wish I could have taken you for dinner in London while you were here!! Amazing vid, I hope you had a great time here

When will you come play in Los Angeles?
🤞🤞
Tiffany, am sorry myself and my daughter Meredith couldn't be there, we will be next time! Is wonderful to see your behind the scenes vid 💜🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹
I know how difficult it is to perform when you're not feeling 100% well physically. Good for you for pulling through!! The show must go on, right?
Hai Tiffany, I’ve been waiting for your behind the scenes of your Amsterdam concert, is it coming? I was there and enjoying it a lot!! 🎶💓

I have a question about the rights: who owns the rights to the London performance? Will the “rights owner” put the performance online one day?
Apologies for the late comment, but I was there at the concert and enjoyed it very much! Unfortunately I couldn’t make it to the CD signing as I had jury duty (murder and kidnapping charges, we ruled guilty). Was definitely worth the commute in and out of London 👍🏴

Any plans to include Medtner in a future recital?
You said your parents made you congee. Did they fly to London ? They will be so proud of you.
