Hi everyone! Which piece is your favorite piece to get rid of some aggressions? 😬🤪 Seriously- you should never be aggressive with your instrument… anyway - wishes for the next challenges?
Beethoven's turkish march (Rubinstein's arrangment) is a great way to get your aggression off (if you can play it properly). And I would sugest prelude opus 23 no. 7 in c minor by Rachmaninoff for the next chalenge.
Franz Liszt - Venezia e Napoli S.162 No.3 "Tarantella".
Good for aggression - Chopin Prélude op. 28 no. 22 in G minor - gone in under a minute! Good for a challenge - 6 Études de concert, Op.35 No. 2 "Automne" (Chaminade) 😃
Mazeppa...
Annoying as it is to get every note correct, it’s...
Ps:the hardest part of Prelude in G minor is the middle...
Anything consisting of large jumps or octaves/chords I am fine with...
Part of the reason why I consider Feux Follets harder than Paganini etude 4 (1858
Probably Liszt transcendental etude no 4
I played this piece before, took me about 6 months. And here we have annique who got it done in an hour and eleven minutes.
Like learning the piece down or having to a performance level?
well, as much as she is really efficient learning she did not learn the piece in one hour.
@@r.j4449 I meant the commenter above. 6 months would be a lot of time to just get the piece down.
i tried it some years ago and never got the fast octaves right... but i really enjoyed playing the middle part :-)
@@salazin466 it’s quite of a hard piece tho
My neighbour is a literal profesional pianist, so if anything, listening to him playing makes me want to practice. Plus, i dont understand why people get mad; as long as they are playing in normal hours, its basically a free concerto. Taking a bath hits just different when someone is performing in the next room
Hello Annique! I just wanted to say that I've quit playing the piano for 4 years and you're the reason I am currently re learning it!
My neighbors told me that when I play the piano they listen close to it and try to relax listening to classical music, this really motivated me to keep playing
Been learning this piece on and off for... years... It's beyond my level but it's teaching me to play "thumpy, bangy" pieces without tiring my hands out. That beautiful middle section also has its own challenges in the left hand. Good to see someone with a massively better technique than mine stumble over a few bits, to be honest!
I'm blown away by how fast she can learn these insanely difficult pieces...
Like I take 2 weeks to 1 month month to learn even some simple stuff and I can go up to 6-7 months on a hard piece...
It’s not that hard
@@DavidFernandez-oi6ku great
Diese Challenge Videos sind einfach großartig. Top! Weiter so.
I have just found your channel and firstly what a brilliant pianist you are. What I love also are your comments on the music when you are practicing. It is very interesting and gives a real insight into the music and the problems that a pianist faces. I look forward to following you in the future and thank you for sharing your talent with us. Alan.
I know op 3 no 2 is more popular, but I've always loved op 23 no 5. It's my favourite Rachmaninoff piece, so beautiful!
And the fact that you can play something like this off of the sheets is just ridiculous! Equal parts impressive and infuriating, haha!
I was waiting for you to do this piece for so much time, I'm so glad that you finally did it!!
*_what a pity the result was bad, hahahahaha_*
@@GORILLA_HIGHLIGHTS_-vg1oo Considering it was only one hour, sightreading a really difficult piece, the result was not all that bad.
Wow! Just shows how much hard work, patience, talent and determination goes into perfecting these masterpieces. 🙌👏
I'm playing this right now and I am so glad that I (with my 9 months of practice) can keep up with you after one hour of practice xD
I feel like it is very common for us pianists to humanize our instruments! Keep making these awesome videos! Also, I love how you freak out every time the one-hour timer goes off 🤣
Always a pleasure to see how you approach a new piece! Could you attempt Liebeslied arr. Rachmaninov if you haven’t played it before?
You beat me to it I was going to ask the same thing
Wonderful video. You are very brave to share with us the learning process and not only the end product. Thanks again for sharing!
Mein Gott, du kannst es wirklich. Ich lerne grade die Prelude in C sharp minor und die in g minor ist mein großes Ziel...
Als erstes ist mir aufgefallen, dass Du die gleichen Noten hast wie ich. Guter Verlag!
Dann fand ich es cool, dass Du genau die gleichen Sachen erklärt hast wie mein Lehrer mir immer erklärt... aus der Tastatur und alles muss vorbereitet sein... usw. Tolles Video, weiter so!
Fantastic as always! Your videos are always so inspiring! :)
Love this piece!!!
To watch this channel or rather to listen to it or both - is a highlight really in more than one respect. I pickup musical pieces that I would not come across otherwise, being attached to the „really classical“ period of music, shameful to say but true all the same. Music is not just the sound of it, it is also struggling with how to do it right, just like struggling with one‘s life proper. Thanks for all these moments!
Your beautiful smile makes everything an A+😁 but the piece itself…wow respect for what you do in one hour!
For 1hr and 11min of practice this was a definite 10.. so much improvement in such a short time.. I'm flabbergasted o.o .. amazing job 👏 😍
This a surprisingly good way to practice, thank you! The time pressure actually helps a lot with the nitpicky stuff
Gosh I’m leaning this song😭 thank you Annique for choosing this song for this video❤️
I rediscovered this channel after maybe 1-2 years? Its amazing to see how far you have come, i remember when you had like 12k subs haha. Very awesome to see you are still very similar and you also have merch now! Pretty cool stuff
i'm glad I came across this series. i rarely see other pianists practicing so I can't tell if I'm practicing right or learning the correct way!
Hi. THANKS SO MUCH for this and your other videos. There are a lot of piano-playing RUclipsrs (I mean, serious ones who play, like, real music very well), but you're the only one I've found so far who talks such sense about wrist technique, moving away from the keys, not bashing downwards into the piano and things like that. I really appreciate your affirmation here; someone just occasionally think of the poor pianos huddling under the assault, or even the ears of the people sitting in the concert hall (though I can see the argument that they might have brought it on themselves)...
Myself if I want to blow off steam I just scream, swear and break things, but not in the same room as my piano, who's a peaceable sort of cove that I'd hate to see hit by a flying frying pan. Funnily enough I've never found music to represent anger very well. It's too damned beautiful. I do like playing Chopin's Revolutionary Etude, but I suppose that's less angry than tragic.
I got a digital piano, at the moment it was the best choice for me... It's almost a year since I got back to Piano and your videos are so informative, thank you!!
I learned this in 2 weeks for a personal challenge, and found that it has a nice balance between muscle memory and playing by eye. I didn't play it again for 4 months, (I found that it wasn't usable for the exam level I was studying towards) and upon returning, was surprisingly able to make it through OK.
A brilliant piece that I would highly recommend learning. You can do it!
I love this piece!!!
It's so good to open RUclips and see a new video ❤️🎹
Amazing ! 👏
🤣😂🤣😂🤣🤭🤭🤭🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣 I laughed sooo hard after that 10 minutes try. You are brilliant!! You hear me? Brilliant!! Yes, show must go on! I love you! I must try that too. It already was on my bucket list, but now I will have more courage. Thank you! Show must go on!!!🤗🤣😂🤣🤗
Playing with metronome is my favourite part of the work ☺️ especially pieces with rhythmic motives !
I love your challenges :D
Looking at the comments now, I think there’s a message that needs to be spread amongst internet piano students:
-Anique’s sight reading abilities are not super avobe average: that’s what’s expected from you as a high level classical pianist (as she is).
The fact that she can learn such long (or short depending on pov) chunks of music sheet in 1 hoyr shoud make you reevaluate 2 things:
-1 you should be practiscing your sight reading as it will skyrocket your learning curve (you will read more pieces)
-2 maybe you should downgrade a little on the pieces you play: if it takes you 6 monts to a year just to be able to play a piece it is waaaay above your level. You should expect to be able to play your ‘hard pieces’ in 2 months aprox. And then yes, it can take up to 6 or 12 months to refine it to perfection.
Yes you can do whatever you want, but if you keep on trying to play (more like musically destroy) super hard pieces you will loose so much time and regret it afterwards. Enjoy simpler pieces, there’s so much easy and BEAUTIFUL repertoire.
You’re welcome :)
how do you practice sightreading effectively?
Two thumbs up! that was amazing.
I've tried this one and I feel MUCH better now thanks!
I recently found your channel and am quite enjoying it. You're a very happy person; even when you make a mistake you laugh and keep going, whereas I always get mad and swear when I'm playing and make a mistake. Your approach is probably smarter.
I never go this fast when I'm first learning a piece. I go one hand, then the other, then together, then speed up. If I'm having trouble with a section I go back to one hand at a time until I've figured it out. You pick things up a lot faster than I do, but you're a professional who plays for an audience while I'm an amateur who hates playing in front of others so your goals are bigger than mine. As requested I'd give you 8 out of 10 for picking up the new piece so quickly but mark you down because you go too fast and make a lot of mistakes. I suppose the aim of the challenge is to get through as much of the piece as possible in the time allotted, but I strive for accuracy over length played. Different strokes for different folks.
I asked an old piano teacher about a speed exercise to play faster, since pianists are like fighter pilots because we "feel the need for speed", and he showed me one you probably know, where you start the right hand at middle c then skip d to play e f g a then back down, moving your thumb from c to d and then back up. When you get one full c octave up, go back down to middle c reversing what you first did to go up the octave. Again with your right hand, put your pinky on "high c", skip b then play a g f e then back up to b and so on, eventually returning to middle c. Then do the same thing with the left hand but down from middle c (c skip b agfe to start, etc.). Eventually you can put both hands together. I never could get my left hand to be as fast as my right, and that's really obvious when playing the exercise hands together, but it's still a good technique to get faster. As usual with technical work, I got bored and added a cdefg line before doing the cefga just for some variety. You can also do 2 octaves instead of one. Anyway, nerding out a bit here.
I also don't use a metronome unless I want to see what the tempo should be, but then turn it off again right away because it's so monotonous and annoying, so kudos to you for hanging in there with that. I also don't know why your neighbours would be mad at you unless they're head bangers or something; classical music is great to listen to unless you're practising at 3 in the morning. I most like to play at 11 at night before going to sleep, and did that all the time I had a house, but now that I'm in an apartment I don't want to disturb my neighbours so I play during the day or early evening.
LMAOO I LIVE for your editing!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Great Video, you´re so inspiring
I've been playing the piano for about 4 years and have been practicing the piece for 15 months (about 20 minutes a day) and can now play it to the beginning of the middle section. It will probably take me another 15 months to play it fully and at the tempo, but it's worth it to me. 😄
@ Annique It's amazing how far you got in 1 hour and 11 minutes. By the way, my neighbors usually don't hear me because I have an e-piano and don't turn it up that loud or play with headphones.
The editing on these videos is just becoming more and more unhinged and I love it so much
That was impressive. I put 20 hours of practice in it and didn't finish the piece and you do 1/3 of it in one hour.
I enjoyed hearing your practice tips, particularly regarding the repeated notes and pushing away from the keys instead of into them. I'll try to practice these.
Nice - as always!
Love it!
"Des is n es!? Mensch!"
I love it
You are very inspiring!
Hi Annique.
I really enjoy this format and I'm sure you inspire people when you post these pieces. #showmustgoon
This piece is so freaking hard. Dang. Respect for you too even try this one
I'm quite lucky with neighbours too, but since I switched to a real piano I often wear my headphones (not much for pieces, but when I feel I might be a bit annoying with articulations or scales 😅). Also, I'm not good, I'm only learning so listening to me has to be dosed 😂 thank you for your video Annique, I really enjoy them. 💗
I'm learning this piece now!
You're doing great!
It is so helpful to See These Kind of 1-10-1 Challenges. Someone like me can learn a lot! I always thought about how it would be learning this piece. With my very Limited skills I perform like 1 day - 10 weeks - 1 year 😀😀😀
I learnt this in my teens
I still make mistakes at the jumps
And the fingering for the heroic section starting with an e flat chord is so much easier for people with larger hands! I only realised that when I got older
Loll i really enjoyed the video!! I love how energetic you are, you always make my day when you post a new video.
My piano is a digital one so I usually play with headphones on, I guess my neighbors like it better this way.
" I tell my piano the things I used to tell you." I think that quote of Chopin just sums up the situation, Chopin is a relatable person indeed!
_were you already energized while writing this?_
It looks so easy when we look at you !
This is one of my favorite classical pieces
Did this for my senior recital - spent a semester on this 😐 love your videos
An actually relatable pianist on youtube lol
I agree with you Annique, I have big hands and still the chords make this music a nightmare.
Btw, I'm not crazy I don't talk to my piano, I talk to my fingers asking them why are they so bad at playing
HEY I REQUESTED THIS TO YOU SOME MONTHS AGO, YHANK YOU
amazing
Hi! This is wonderful!
Echt schönes Video (wie eigentlich immer)! 😊👍 Hoffentlich kann ich mal einem Konzert von Dir beiwohnen. Es sieht alles danach aus, was Deine Virtuosität am Klavier angeht. Leider ist in diesen verrückten Zeiten aber überhaupt nichts mehr sicher.
I have no problem practicing. I have an N3X hybrid piano. I love the fact that I can turn down the volume while still having much of the grand piano experience.
J'adore ce prélude. Je n'imaginais pas qu'il était si difficile
Yeeees a new video ❤️ for the next time can you play Lieder Ohne Worte op.19 n°1 (Mendelssohn) ?
Hallow Annique...congratulatuons...😊
Well play ! Was funny, it's really hard to play this !
Dieses Stück hat mich auf eine Idee gebracht, welches andere Stück vielleicht für eine Challange passen könnte:
Brahms, 118 Nr. 3
(Auch g-moll und kraftvoll, hat auch einen sehr schönen Mittelteil)
Bortkiewicz: Prelude op. 33 #1 for the next 1-10-1 challenge! The middle-section will be heartbreaking... PLEASE make us happy, or cry... !!! 😉
Oh you gotta finish it, can’t leave us hanging like that 😂
your piano is the prettiest
I’m trying this method on Gershwin’s Rhapsody in Blue. Happy surprise…..it works. Thank you. I don’t have it mastered yet but working page by page with the 1, 10 and 60 minutes has made a huge difference.
This is my favourite piece of music.
You are so incredible
Que hermoso talento
I have this one neighbor which called police on me because if practicing, but not once, not twice, multiple times! 😢 My solution was to move the piano in the other room :)) ANYWAY I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS!!💗
Oh I've learnt the beginning of this prelude before, and I remember it was so fun to play. I've all but forgotten it now though..
2m !!! Niceee
Hi, ich habe das Stück gerade abgeschlossen und erst einmal zur Seite gelegt, aber du hast mir schon wieder viele neue Ideen gegeben, wie ich meine Artikulation und die Betonungen verbessern kann, wenn ich es wieder aufgreife. Dankeschön!
Great work on a great piece. If you get tired of the pressure of the solo limelight, you could have Chantal back for a video. I think we all liked the video with her.
now I am getting to grips with PRACTICING...one small bit at a time...thanks :)
I really love to see how others try to learn sth new, and thats also why i subscribed your channel ^^ btw, hope you can play the Chopin's Waltz in E minor op posth B 65
Thanks so much for the video of your practicing of the prelude. I am performing this in a recital on June 10th and am very worried about my memory (especially in the beautiful slower section), as well as not losing the rhythm. Relaxing is also an issue for me. I've listened to literally almost every performance of this prelude on RUclips to get a sense of how others interpret the piece. Perhaps doing this was is not a good idea. I appreciate your explanation of 'pushing away' from the keys. Again, thanks for the video.
Nice one! 👍🇳🇿
Jajajaja esa entrada fue lo máximo!!!!
I saw Rachmaninov prelude i was like FINALLYYYYYYYYY and I saw I G minor not C# minor ooooowwww I like it though but still waiting for the best piece ever (Rachmaninoff prelude in C# minor)
Both are equally good imo
you really need to listen to all of his pieces to say wich piece is the best of his. and there are really much better Rachmaninoff pieces than prelude op 3 no 2. unless you already listened to every of his pieces than what i'm saying is wrong but still....
@@simaslenksas5280 okay concerto no 2 is better but op 3 no 2 is better than prelude in G minor (I really like prelude in G minor but C# still better)
@@nihalfalcon1444 I can't disagree
Oh no, you did not get the play the beautiful lyrical mid-section D: but the first section is probably also what you were aiming for when you wanted to blow off some steam ^^ as always, very impressive how fast you made progress on such a challenging piece
As usual really enjoyed watching your self imposed torture as the results were magical :-) Also because the g minor prelude is my favorite prelude, especially Hofmann playing it. Also with the abandoning of Russian composers and their works here in the UK by some orchestras; what has art created 100+ years ago to do with geopolitics in 2022!?, I'm comforted to see that some artists/performers haven't.
Annique I hope you and your families are safe
My favorite piece!! I haven’t seen the video yet but I’m sure you’ll play it amazingly!! ❤️❤️
Ps: I do talk to my piano as if it is playing and not me 🤣
*_watch the video to say something, hahahaha_*
@@GORILLA_HIGHLIGHTS_-vg1oo already did and what I said was right, thank you. 😊

@@GORILLA_HIGHLIGHTS_-vg1oo I hope you treat yourself better than others ❤️
@@thepianojournal2570 *_interesting, so, give me a jëllybëan, monkey needs_*
my neighbours actually once complemented my playing as it was calming their child to sleep
Really enjoyable. If you struggle, then I have no chance.
You're too nice Annique!
Hi Annique! Well, I don't have a problem with noise annoying neighbors because I play a digital piano (actually a Kawai VPC1 MIDI controller, running PianoTeq). I can set the volume low in the morning, loud in the afternoon (when most of my neighbors are not home), and use headphones "after hours", so everything is good. I think for most non-professionals, especially people who play only at home for their own enjoyment, this winds up being the best solution...
I bought the sheet music for this prelude the month after i started playing piano again :D in the hopes of one day learning it...
Try Erlkönig next :D
Here are some songs you might want to try this challenge with:
Tchaikovsky's Piano Conserto 1. Arr. By P. Grainger
Rachmaninov - Italian Polka
Liszt - Un Sospiro
You should try Prelude op.3 №2 in Cis moll
