I've been following Jonah for a few years now. I'm no expert... in fact I'm the exact opposite of an expert... but his potential did seem massive. I can't judge how well he's progressed in recent years, but I'd say he still has a great shot at being a concert pianist.
I feel like dynamics should be one of the first things you learn along as using the peddling but I mean not using dynamics but really just knowing how to use them. It would help him play even more well
Remember, there is always going to be someone better than you at everything, except being you. There will eventually be someone better than Jonah, or maybe there already has been. But if your goal is to be the best at piano, you will fail every time. But if it is to play piano because you love it and to play around friends, you will succeed
He is amazing, especially as he grows. Have you also seen the early videos of Aimi Kobayashi, at ages 3 and 4? At 4 she masterfully played a Clementi Sonatina. She is now in her late 20s, still killing it at the piano.
This boy has a fantastic brain and great hand skills. I am not sure how fundamentally musical he is. It is perfectly possible that he will do something else on a very high level, rather than devote himself to music. Because his entire approach to the piano is wonderfully grounded in memorisation, he often doesn't need to look at what he is doing, and at times does quite alarming things with his head (for instance amazing gyrations in the first movement of the Moonlight sonata).
I honestly think it could seem like he's his a pleateu because of what he was doing in his younger years and the pieces he was learning. Yes, the pieces he is learning are very impressive pieces and impress lots of people, but like he said it took him 10 months to learn Hungarian Rhapsody No. 2. I think there's a chance that learning incredibly difficult pieces too early could garner negative results, simply because there's foundational work that can be built for years and years. Obviously I could be wrong, but I genuinely think learning this caliber of pieces at this young of an age could do more bad than good in simply taking too long to learn.
An example I'd like to mention is actually Lang Lang. If I'm not mistaken, Lang Lang applied to Curtis Institute at the age of 13 with a recording of him playing all Chopin Etudes in Op. 10 and Op. 25. These are foundational pieces that teach very specific techniques and ensure you master those techniques to even play the pieces the way they're meant to be played. Pieces like Hungarian Rhapsody No. 2, La Campanella, and Moonlight Sonata without a doubt teach you techniques, but it's not an actual study of technique in the same way that something like Chopin Etudes are.
Whats ur hardest piece, also i think a good piece to play now (tell me also what's ur abrsm grade) is polkka italienne by rach, arranged by siloti (im learning this now)

I've been watching him for years. I think he's gifted and has a walk in. Anyone else think this?
3 years old, 4 / 5 just crazy no matter the age for this boy
Jonah rocks! His piano playing is on point and so is his PJ's collection!

How do i not give up when i see this stuff
Because If you love piano you play It no matter what

WOW! so clever
yoo he got that one piece shirt at age 6! haha
anyway he must have perfect pitch
6:28 WHAT DID YOU SAY????? xd
I played piano when I was 3 my first song was ode to joy
he's actually 12 at the final clip, he's 13 now
8:30 This is a good point and something I've often wondered. Prodigies at this youngest of age are probably not reading scores.
LONG ... ? At 1-2 hours a day..? No way. That's lightning fast.
I have the same kawai piano as you
That’s crazy
as 14 year old pianist with with 9 years of piano experience I can say I am absolutely defeated
Hes 11 years old with 30 years of experience. Dont beat yourself up.
@@eliargumedo4728 😅
He is the new Liszt for sure.
Nice video
Thanks

Hello I'm new in THIS channel but I'm a fan in the badminton channel but I'm curious are you really aylex badminton ?
Im 12 and started piano at 8 and im self taught so i think im Not as good but im pretty impressive
Whats ur hardest piece, also i think a good piece to play now (tell me also what's ur abrsm grade) is polkka italienne by rach, arranged by siloti (im learning this now)
if you want to continue playing the piano in future you need to get a teacher so you learn more deeply about western music(subject related to piano)
