Ask and you shall receive, here is Fantaisie-Impromptu by Chopin!! With this piece we are now halfway to 100 videos, I'm truly grateful for you all as a community and love reading your comments on all of my videos - you are the reason Rousseau exists. There is more than one piece of Chopin's where he has taken inspiration from Beethoven, sometimes directly and sometimes subtly, but it's clear he was a great admirer of his works. Can you hear the Moonlight Sonata quote here?

@@default7712 I’d recommend just doing the octaves for the right hand and then add section in the middle using the 2nd and 3rd finger and playing it as chords. Then you can begin to break that up and playing it slowly. The left hand in the beginning shouldn’t be too difficult to do with the 5th, 4th, 2nd and 1st finger, but I don’t know how big your hands are so you might have to move your hand with the movement if that makes sense. When you get to the B move your hand and use the 5th again and the 3rd, 2nd 1st respectively on f# A and B. Hope you don’t mind me telling you this haha-
For anyone here researching for school, this information might help. Chopin composed many of his famous works on his death bed and he also asked for the sheet music of those works to be burned (including this one) in his fireplace. He wanted this piece to be burned because he thought the melody sounded a lot like Beethoven's 3rd movement of Moonlight Sonata. This piece was published by his friend (who didn't burn the sheet music because he thought that it sounds really good) after he died along with most of his other works, Chopin didn't quite experience the wealth and popularity that Liszt had. Chopin had a very sad life but he made the most beautiful romantic pieces in my opinion. If that bit of information helped you to react to this piece, I'm really glad to help. Edit: I just discovered that he actually composed this piece to sound somewhat like Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata but not just the 3rd movement. He composed this piece as an improvise of all the movements of Moonlight Sonata (as the name suggests "impromptu"), but he initially wanted it to sound like a piece of its own but he accidentally made it sound a lot like Moonlight Sonata. I personally think that it doesn't sound like the Moonlight Sonata that much, but if Chopin said that the 2 pieces sounds similar then he must be right. Besides, my ears are nowhere perfect and I don't have perfect pitch and I have little to no knowledge about Music Theory. There's also a meaning to the name "fantaisie" but I'm too lazy to research about it.
@@flips4life892There are many similarities that this and moonlight sonata 3rd movement have. For example, both are in the key of C Sharp Minor and I actually also think that the fast arpeggios sound the similar to Moonlight Sonata 3rd movement.
@@sagittariusa581 I get the fast arpeggios but plenty of pieces are in C sharp minor so I personally don't really feel like that's a notable similarity. Also the tones of the pieces are very different in my opinion. Moonlight sonata mvmt 3 is fast, intense, and dark, whereas this is fast of course but to me seems more "beautiful" and soothing especially during the slow section. I don't mean to be annoying and just trying to start an argument, I just personally disagree that this resembles the moonlight sonata
@@flips4life892 If you notice even at the start, those first arpeggios are basically the ones you play at the start of the 1st movement of Moonlight Sonata (and even in the 3rd). At 1:20 too the left hand plays the same notes you play in some parts of the 1st movement.
One day, after dinner, while my younger sister and I were lounging about in Mr. Gopher Wood's yard, we spotted a fledgling Charmony Dove all on its own. That baby bird was tiny, it didn't even have all of its feathers, and it couldn't sing. When we found it, it was already on its last breath, having fallen into a shrub -- probably abandoned by its parents. We decided to build a nest for it right there and then. However, thinking back, that winter was unusually cold, with fierce winds at night in the yard, not to mention the many poisonous bugs and wild beasts in the vicinity… It was clear that if we left the fledgling in the yard, it stood no chance of surviving until spring. So, I suggested we take it inside, place it on the shelf by the window, and asked the adults to fashion a cage for it. We decided that when it regained its strength enough to spread its wings, we would release it back into the wild. The tragic part -- something that we'd never considered -- was that this bird's fate had already been determined long before this moment… Its destiny was determined by our momentary whim. Now, I pass the power of choice to you all. Faced with this situation, what choice would you make? Stick to the original plan, and build a nest with soft net where the Charmony Dove fell? Or build a cage for it, and feed it, giving it the utmost care from within the warmth of a home? I eagerly await your answer.
My sister played this so much everytime I hear the start I’m like oh well here she goes again. She graduated piano 2years ago. Now she left to study overseas it’s been really quiet at home. She’s one of the best pianists I’ve heard. When ur around a good pianist you can really hear the difference.

Listening to a lot of great pieces like this makes me think of my deceased father that died three years ago and I cry every time.

May your mother rest in piece and think about all the great music up there.
@Oreo Smith yeah, it might appear incredibly hard if you don't have a tonne of experience with music, but it's not super difficult. Still hard, just nit that hard.
This is for sure a piece I want to learn. Not yet, I feel I don't have the experience and technique to play it now, but this is so beautiful I have to know how to play this masterpiece. A challenge and a hard piece, but not impossible if you give it a try!
@@Velnox I agree. I tried playing it a couple months ago, and I found that the amount of times the middle theme is repeated might be more intimidating than everything else.
My piano techer came over today for a lesson and played this at the end of the lesson. Its so amazing to see someone play this for you live. Its so different to watching it on a video.
When i first started learning this piece, i thought i would never get to the end- the polyrhythms, the tempo, the finger movements...everything about this piece was so hard for me it actually almost made me cry. But Im now proud to say I can play this piece almost completely from beginning to end. Of course, I still cant play as lightly and effortlessly as Rousseaue does, but Im extermely happy to be able to play the piece i fell in love with at my first hearing, it made me love piano more

This is by far my favourite version of this piece. Many pianists rush through the intro like their stool is on fire, but here, though fast, you hear all the notes clearly instead of mush. Truly wonderful.
so this song was published 4 years ago, the chance of anyone seeing my comment is slim, but i just wanted to say i am 13 years old, and i have been playing piano for 6 years. this is the best interpretation of this song i have ever heard. i want to ask my teacher to learn this song. i listen to this every single day. amazing work @Rousseau

@@ckckck555yeah, it's more accurate said like this. In term of musicality, fingering and raw difficulty this one is very far from a ballade no 4, prélude op 28 no 16 Hades, Hungarian rhapsody 2, Grand galop chromatique, Mephisto waltz, any transcendental etude, so on and so on. But yeah, it clearly is a difficult piece, I play the piano since 2 years and I won't dare try to learn fantaisie impromptu until a year or two.
I gotta say Rosseau's the only one on youtube that can play this piece so naturally and serene other pianist play this way too quick and it just ruins the feeling you get when you feel the music and connect with the composer. hats off to you Rosseau Edit: I found another good version search Fantaisie Impromptu yellow launge Daniil Trifonov plays this as well, expressive and smooth with the appropriate feelings and tempo :)
I feel ashamed of myself that I forgot how to play this piece. I was literally killing myself to learn this, and it took like a year of 2-3 hours a day to perfect it. Always remember to practice guys! Edit: Thanks for all the support guys, muscle memory is a godsend! It's not quite at the level I used to play, but at least I can play it again.
@@8wm232 True story😂 And @Hime: He didn't have any French influence growing up near Warsaw, even his father was assimilated.

When I was three years younger I was often listening to this in my free time. Now, I’m finally able to play this masterpiece. Chopin’s my favorite composer and I have been playing the piano for already 10 years. The feeling of playing the “super hard” piano compositions I’ve heard since I was little is the best, sincerely

I know these are just jokes.. but really, if you ever tried to compose a piece like Chopin.. that's impossible.. that composer was genius, every note have their role, without it it would sound weird and not good. So these jokes aren't really necessary.
@@angels5449 oh i didn't know .. but still, even it's a reference to anything or anybody. It still has the point. I know it's a joke, a said that, i'm just starting new discussion about that.
@@waidi3242 Yup, I get it. Chopin is one of the greatest pianists and classical composers of all time, and his ingenious pieces definitely weren't compose by just dropping something on the piano, it takes so much of practice and hard work, it's impossible to express it in mere words. Yes, I quite agree with you. Absolutely.
Hi Rousseau. I recently got back my exam results for my diploma for piano. The results were what I didn't want but I'll accept it. I failed it. I know everyone is gonna look down on me. Put in my best efforts but nope, still failed. You don't have to sympathise me. It isn't the end of the world. We all make mistakes and we learn from them. But I kinda think this is different and I wasted 2 years of life and spent tons of money into this and the results didn't satisfy me. I just wanted to say that Rousseau, you're my idol for piano and you play very good. Just keep making what you do and keep playing the piano!
Volcano Salami no piece is impossible if you have infinite time for practicing em. This will take several weeks to get the right hand technique down though
I was told that someone who appeared in a simply piano ad that was playing the piano in the vid, is not a noob. Turns out that it was a concert pianist and has been classicly trained for over 10 years. bruh 😂
This is definitely one of if not the strongest performance/recording I have heard for this piece. It's flawless. Everything is just executed masterfully. Given just how hard this is to play, I wonder just how many hours it must have taken him to master it to this degree. To play anything at this level, it takes not just skill but talent as well, and it seems Rousseau has both of those in spades. Very, very impressive. Well done.
@@giorno6727 Lol, not quite but if you take is slow it's not too bad and as it speeds up the polyrythyms get much easier. You'd be surprised at how deceptively hard this song is (not saying it's easy though)
One of the most beautiful pieces of music I've ever heard. In my youth I remember Dorothy Hamill skating to this on a TV special of hers after the Olympics. I've had a crush ever since.
This piece, from what I've gotten out of it at least, follows the stages of grief. First comes the event itself and a person's immediate reaction to it - hence the frantic opening of the piece. Then life goes on(like the constant left hand support) underneath the anger stage right after the event(aka the right hand melodies). Then comes denial - the middle section of the song that seems slower and peaceful like the event never happened. This part goes in for a better part of the piece, like this process goes on for most of the grieving process. Yet there is always the depressed side that takes over right after this section after a person realises the event happened and they are not over this event. Finally, after anger, denial, and depression comes acceptance at the end of the song. Right near the end there is a bridge from grief to acceptance and a person must cross to get over an event/loss. This includes an enormous battle of the mind, the heart and heart. Chopin finally finishes the piece when that long bridge is crossed. Therefore, the piece ends quiet, and peaceful, and yet Chopin is ready to go on with other pieces(like a person goes on with life). Or I could be totally wrong lmao
How tf is someone able to write a piece like that. This piece is divine. While practicing I experience emotions that I have never experienced before. It puts me in ecstasy, it feels like I've taken some kind of drug. I'm speechless…
I've developed a bit of a theory about Chopin. He was diagnosed with a fatal illness at 19. I think he put his lust for life and joy into his compositions.
I was playing this the other day and my sister walks by and says, "Your hands sound like butterflies," and then just leaves the room. It made me laugh, but now it's all I can picture when I play this

I could play up to around 15:00 it’s not even hard
My sister played this so much everytime I hear the start I’m like oh well here she goes again.
She graduated piano 2years ago. Now she left to study overseas it’s been really quiet at home. She’s one of the best pianists I’ve heard. When ur around a good pianist you can really hear the difference.
how long has she been playing the piano??

Friend: Playing guitar hurts your hands
Chopin: Hold my piano
Lucia yes, when I play this piece, especially at 0:25, my hands become so tired, I begin to not even be able to play or use my hand muscles, by 0:46 my hands almost start to lock up, and it becomes an effort to keep control.
@@poisonfish2176 Dang you made a lot progress. Just don't push yourself too much or you might end up hurting yourself, or the piano lols.
Lucia I can play up to the “nice” part, lol. I think my hands just don’t have enough endurance to maintain a high tempo.
I think if you play it with the right technique your hands aren't supposed to hurt
poisonfish 21 maybe trying to play it lighter? That always seems to help. And if nothing works, then just do some technique practice or play slower and see how far you can get. We all have our troubles

@Oreo Smith yeah, it might appear incredibly hard if you don't have a tonne of experience with music, but it's not super difficult. Still hard, just nit that hard.
I think honestly the slower part is the most beautiful part, and the fast part is very exciting. One of my favorite pieces.
This is for sure a piece I want to learn. Not yet, I feel I don't have the experience and technique to play it now, but this is so beautiful I have to know how to play this masterpiece. A challenge and a hard piece, but not impossible if you give it a try!
@@Velnox I agree. I tried playing it a couple months ago, and I found that the amount of times the middle theme is repeated might be more intimidating than everything else.

My piano teacher did the same thing! It really is beautiful
And it sounds even better when someone plays it on your own piano 😍
When i first started learning this piece, i thought i would never get to the end- the polyrhythms, the tempo, the finger movements...everything about this piece was so hard for me it actually almost made me cry. But Im now proud to say I can play this piece almost completely from beginning to end.
Of course, I still cant play as lightly and effortlessly as Rousseaue does, but Im extermely happy to be able to play the piece i fell in love with at my first hearing, it made me love piano more

this is the best interpretation of this song i have ever heard.
i want to ask my teacher to learn this song.
i listen to this every single day.

Go for it!
I played this song when I was 13. I’m sure you can too :))
Don’t be fooled, most of his videos are ai generated
i don’t believe you. this was made 4 years ago. ai wasn’t that advanced. and even now. you heard rousseau say that a lot of things has been going on in his life that’s why he wasn’t posting. if he was doing ai he probably could post twice a day and make 4x the money he does now.

Anyone noticed in 0:25 the RH melody focuses on the lower octave but in the repeat it focuses on the higher octave? Hats off Rousseau!!
It was intended like this by Chopin. Rousseau executed it very well, but so did others.
it's supposed to be like that
Yep, the sheet music has accents ">" first above the lower octave and then on the highest to indicate that those notes that make the melody should be played a little bit louder.
Wow yeah that sounds so good
Hats off CHOPIN!!!!
My Mother was an accomplished pianist. As a child I used to get tired of hearing her play. I didn't realize how difficult and gifted my mother was. She played as well as you.

Yes, I quite agree with you. Absolutely.
Hi Rousseau. I recently got back my exam results for my diploma for piano. The results were what I didn't want but I'll accept it. I failed it. I know everyone is gonna look down on me. Put in my best efforts but nope, still failed. You don't have to sympathise me. It isn't the end of the world. We all make mistakes and we learn from them. But I kinda think this is different and I wasted 2 years of life and spent tons of money into this and the results didn't satisfy me. I just wanted to say that Rousseau, you're my idol for piano and you play very good. Just keep making what you do and keep playing the piano!

I feel your anger frustration and sadness, yet there's a hint of happiness. I feel like I'm in a storm. What an amazing piece and performance
This piece, from what I've gotten out of it at least, follows the stages of grief. First comes the event itself and a person's immediate reaction to it - hence the frantic opening of the piece. Then life goes on(like the constant left hand support) underneath the anger stage right after the event(aka the right hand melodies). Then comes denial - the middle section of the song that seems slower and peaceful like the event never happened. This part goes in for a better part of the piece, like this process goes on for most of the grieving process. Yet there is always the depressed side that takes over right after this section after a person realises the event happened and they are not over this event. Finally, after anger, denial, and depression comes acceptance at the end of the song. Right near the end there is a bridge from grief to acceptance and a person must cross to get over an event/loss. This includes an enormous battle of the mind, the heart and heart. Chopin finally finishes the piece when that long bridge is crossed. Therefore, the piece ends quiet, and peaceful, and yet Chopin is ready to go on with other pieces(like a person goes on with life).
Or I could be totally wrong lmao
It really is amazing how just a piece of music can tell a vast story
How about spending that time you just wasted on actually learning to play the piece itself..?
Whoa
@@arontangen5391 wtf bro? Can he not just enjoy the music? Why does he have to learn it lol what's your problem
whether this was what chopin intended or not, i found your comment valuable. nice (musical) observation
How tf is someone able to write a piece like that. This piece is divine. While practicing I experience emotions that I have never experienced before. It puts me in ecstasy, it feels like I've taken some kind of drug. I'm speechless…
I've developed a bit of a theory about Chopin. He was diagnosed with a fatal illness at 19. I think he put his lust for life and joy into his compositions.
"The time has come... Execute Op. 66."

@@night6127 that's how it should be
Shouldn't it be "shopan"? That's how my French grandma pronounces it lol
Happy for all of you Sunday fans, I'm here cuz i gotta for a piano lesson 😭
I was playing this the other day and my sister walks by and says, "Your hands sound like butterflies," and then just leaves the room. It made me laugh, but now it's all I can picture when I play this
You should make a video of you playing this. Such talent must be shown to the world.
What about the butterfly etude? Play that and tell your sister what its called 😂
Forgive me but when I see it I'll believe it. I can play this too ... when I'm asleep at night.
@@002uzumaki I've been thinking about making videos of myself playing for a while but I don't know! I get really nervous whenever a camera is on and there are already so many piano videos all over RUclips as it is. I don't have a good set up (camera, microphone, etc.), so I'm worried the quality would be really bad :(
If I ever get around to it someday, I'll come back here and let you know!
@@Sircade haha great idea! I'll have to show that one to her
