    Watching each new "How to Sound Like" video is like witnessing the diverse beauty of the color spectrum in rainbows. Each artist is extremely distinctive and unique and like all the wonderful colors in nature, there are tons of different colors in sound as well and one can witness them only by wanting to perceive and understand more closely by showing more open-mindedness. Thank you for your immense effort to show all these wonderful colors Nahre, thanks to you all of us started appreciating the diversity more than ever. I truly love this signature series, it's my favorite on the entire RUclips universe! My encounter with this inspiring video is one of the truly definitive moments for which I consider myself very lucky that I live in this information/technology age/era in which the Internet culture shapes our lives significantly and through it, we can have unlimited access to mind-expanding, transcending contents like this magnificent (as always!) work!

    I happen to really like Schumann, you've made me like him even more. Nahre, this is *brilliant* . Your ideas, your technique, your feel. The nuances, the way the piano seems to be an extension of your musical intention, the way your playing just flows whilst giving contrast and depth. It's so alive, so musical, so good.

    I love this series and it's amazing how the structure and visualizations help understand the concepts you mention. First introducing the stylistic elements with little examples and then using a well-known song to demonstrate a practical use case, all the while highlighting and visualizing the various elements with animations or text pop-ups, that is just great teaching! It's wonderful to see analytical clarity, instrumentalist virtuosity and strong didactics come together like this. And on top of it all, it's wonderfully entertaining and a pleasure to listen to.

    Robert was known to give very descriptive titles for his own works and did the same for works by others. In the romantic fashion of the day, he often tried to contextualize in words what the work was trying to express. If you lived in his times, I’m sure you would’ve been featured in his newspaper.
