    As a classically trained pianist, the rhythm was definitely the most foreign concept to get down right away. Unravel took me three weeks, I can't imagine performing it in an hour! Hope you get the opportunity to get through the whole arrangement.

      @@vivago727 Yeah I saw the description. The techniques in that arrangement (3-hand tech, rapid jumps, one-note tremolos) remind me of some pieces by LIszt and Rachmaninoff.
      And yeah this arrangement is sadistically difficult (technically and musically) that even Animenz himself would have to simplify a few sections during his live concerts to conserve his energy.
      Also this arrangment is extremely faithful to the original song which is why I think its his most popular arrangement (along with that it's insanely hard).

      @@patnaakbar3573 he's the arranger though? So he's clearly extremely well versed with the material, and knows exactly how he wanted it to sound. And there are some good covers, where the pianists learnt it in only a few weeks(which isn't a lot). There are so many pieces that are a lot harder than this too. So, you can't really call it 'pushing the limits of the piano'.
      That's something I'd use to describe things like the Chopin-Godowsky études, as Godowsky was able to demonstrate through those études the advantages that the left hand had over the right, which was something that hadn't been explored in as much detail as Godowsky did with them.

    Don't worry you did great for only a bit more than 1 hour practice, as you said the rhythms are not easy on this one, + the large amount of polyphony and different techniques used. I don't know if you're aware btw but Animenz lived in Germany for a while and studied piano in german conservatoires. And he's a huge fan of Beethoven so that makes quite a few common points with him haha!

Learn to play this song for me!” He even downloaded the music for me. I was so touched by his sweet request. Then, he handed me the sheet music with a devilish grin, and played Animenz’s video. His birthday is 1/25. Ummmm - so not funny!😂 I’m 50, I laugh the same way you laugh bc its so DIFFICULT! I put this to the side for a little, and told him I’ll work on Bluebird after his arrangement of Amazing Grace. I will say my youngest got me good!

    From my experience, this is one of those songs that can only be improved with time. The isn't as much mental gymnastics as it is physically. The techniques required to play this piece are some of the most frustrating imo: octaves, tremolo, fast arpeggios, and even repeated notes. Plus some poly rhythmic patterns that have to be played extremely fast. Leaps don't help neither. My advice is don't play this song without at least 5-7 years of experience. There is a lot of chopin and lisztian inspiration in this song from what animnez said, so that should be enough to give anyone an idea of what to expect. This was an excellent attempt, and I'd love to see her experience from page 3 onwards.

    Rhythm is defiiiiinitely the thing I struggle with the most consistently. Like, any given technique feels like it just takes a reasonable bit of repetition, but internalizing rhythms that are dramatically different from what I'm used to takes like, 10x as long, every time. It's the sole thing that makes ragtime feel so difficult.

    Well, I've played some of the Animenz's covers (Unravel not included; I've tried it once and found it way above my level). My favourite one is Kimi no shiranai monogatari (Bakemonogatari ED). Yeah, his covers are great, but really challenging (both technically and musically). For me those pieces are more than just covers; he used original songs and transformed them into real virtuosic piano masterpieces. And I really like his scores, because they are usually ok to read (well edited).

    Oh, it is actually reassuring to hear that even a high level player like you can have trouble with unusual rhythms. The last piece I learned, Rachmaninoff's Elegie, I ended up spending over 1 hour just figuring out the rhythm in a few small sections. I felt really stupid, but that was a very challenging piece to me.
    Despite the unusual patterns, how do you think this piece compares with difficult pieces from the standard classical repertoire? I don't know anything about anime music, but I've heard that this arrangement is extremelly difficult. I wonder how it compares to a Chopin etude, for instance. From the score, it looks like it has some very unpianistic sections.

    • @jailedspell6946
      @jailedspell6946 2 года назад +1

      I've played quite a few Chopin etudes and Animenz's Unravel and unravel is much harder than most Chopin Etudes although not quite as challenging as double thirds or winterwind, it certainly sits close though.

    Pop and rock music is also a pain on the neck as for the rhythm. Also, the scoresheets also are not written the "right way" as we have learnt on classical music schools . I use to place a mark on each and every bit in order to get accustomed to the complex rhythm. Notes are never a problem

    Don't beat yourself up on this one, this is probably the hardest one I've ever learnt, took me a while keep coming back to it, and nailed it just once, and since have never managed to again! Now I just can't hit the keys at the right speed or miss the key entirely, but, I did it once, that was good enough for me! Keep at it though, from what you did in such short time was frickin amazing!!! And... believe it or not, Animenz's video with him playing this song with the black and gold piano, you probably have seen the video, even he hits the wrong note mid way through with his left hand! It's a low note, but can you spot it? The only flawless video I've seen is the digital piano, the one that in simplistic terms looks like a dance machine with the notes scrolling down from the top, THAT one is perfect! Anyway, amazing effort ❤

      My background, self taught, been playing for over 30 years, took me a good 3 years of trying this piece, on and off, I love this song so much ever since I first heard it, so wanted to get it right, I'd try for ages over and over, get frustrated when I messed up, would leave it for a while then gave it another try, did this multiple times, drove people sick of hearing me try to play it, then one day.... I nailed it, every note! I literally jumped out of my seat, arms in the air, and shouted YESSSSSS!!! Scared the life out of my poor cat as she lept right off the sofa 😂 I was so happy, gutted I didn't record it, as I had given up recording my efforts on this well over a year before lol, but I knew I did it, thats all that mattered to me! But yep, skill or fluke, that was the only time I nailed it! Sadly, since then, arthritis in my hands started and I just really don't play anymore as it gets painful and been told I shouldn't play the piano anymore to prevent it getting worse, so now... I just appreciate others and their amazing skills, like you! 👏👏👏

    Wow :D actually makes me happy to see you struggling too :D Like Liszt and chopin are no thing, but that one german dud hitting Records in terms of Views on a Piano Video with an ANIME THEME, literally kills it. Animenz is one of the greatest pianists i ever saw. Its kind of random for a classical Pianist to present Anime-Music and many conservative Pianists laughed at that. But then if they see this guy arranging an own version of some Anime Theme, these people go bonkers. Animenz is the modern day example for a revolutionary Pianist. Awesome that you tried the most viewed Pianovideo on youtube :D hopefully we get more Animenz stuff in the future
