![6 pianists from Vitale's school play Czerny op.740 (complete) [1/2]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/bSYR6jjrQZY/mqdefault.jpg)
My piano teacher : If you don't practice your scales you will be told to play the number 5 500 times till everything even out !
Hahaahhaahhaha
Op. 299, Op. 599 and Op. 740 are the most played Czerny pieces
But I love op. 261 too, and they think they could be more played too.
i play alot of the op 599, but i am working on the most impossible one. the etude op 740 no 50
Op 849
Ty
And op.849 821
Propably my favorite piano collection of all time... love no 12 so much
No soul
so you have nothing in your tiny brain , it's sure
It sounds a bit like beethoven sonata 17 first movement
Who loves listening to piano exercises? It's like watching people working out in the gym.
Idk how the hell this could crack a top 50 piano collections list
At 1.00.51starts what sounds completely like H.Berlioz March of the Trojans. Beautiful.
Love Czerny.
Do warm up exercises before trying and unless you can lightly (notice the aim at the beginning and the dynamic markings!)... roll around the keys in serious FUN , Czerny wrote many simpler ones to bring you here ! Knowing how to be CALM ENOUGH to KEEP breath-ING IS ALSO ESSENTIAL!
Op 299 is Old Testament. Op 740 is New Testament. That's Czerny Bible.
Op.692 Is better
@@czeynerpianistproducercomp7155 yes from musical standpoint 692 is top but concerning non-plus-ultra fundaments of mechanism 299 & 740 are probably the best sets of studies ever written. Just my 5 penny opinion of course.
hahaha nice one
Op 849 is a warming up !
Lol
I love it. Thanks a lot.
Love czerny exercises, wish I could play as fast as this.
Certainly loosens my arthritic fingers though.
Thank you very much.👍
Great work ...sounds unreal .... too perfect...
It’s a midi lol
@@alexandercarroll9707Not a midi. Someone is playing it, but it's sped up
Great Job!!
finally you uploaded op 740
Superb and very familiar to me
2, 14, 31 and 50 are the best, lovely arpeggios
50 reminds me of mereaux op 63 no 60
50 are the best !
Imagine dedicating the time and effort of recording this
I love this songs
Really
i had check if the speed of the video was normal , my god
Thank you for a detailed listing of the exercises w/ their time markings. Can you tell me what animation software was used to turn the pages? It's so cool.
I think he played the pieces at 0.75, I can clearly hear the piano now. This is prove that this is not computer played or MIDI. I might be wrong, but I highly doubt it. Although the microphone is not good, this is still not a hate comment and I really appreciate your hard work.
Yess, if this ain't midi it's sped up for sure...
@@AsrielKujo for sure
@@kitsuen.m im sure its a midi though ..
@@AsrielKujo I think it is midi but I don't know.
@@kitsuen.m we really cannot be sure
Thanks
They are actually pretty pleasent to hear
1:00:51 I love no.37
6:27 I love it😍
The only problem with Czerny's etudes is the unenterprising harmonic schemes. The constant shifts from tonic to dominant become very tiresome before long.
@jeff henderson Czerny composed tons of music that was never published; it was "for the shelf". He worried that if he composed "serious" music his reputation as a pedagogue would suffer, as his teaching pieces were his bread and butter. His "serious" works (such as symphonies, string quartets, and sacred music) are quite accomplished, sometimes outright brilliant. It's a good thing that he composed what he wanted to so that we here in the future can enjoy it.
Think it’s just traditional Etudes instead of concert
Etude number 28 has 2 german augmented 6th chords if I remember correctly and some secondary dominant chords and I think it also has a diminished 7 chord as a substitute chord. Keep in mind its the 1800s, how enterprising do you want it?
I get your complaint. But that's what I like about Czerny's études : that the harmonic progressions are predictable. His études are meant not to be harmonic masterpieces like Chopin's études for example (yes, Chopin's études have musical and technical appeal!), they're meant to get the student working on specific techniques, like octaves or arpeggiation, etc. And sometimes people just want that predictability.
@@musiqal333 Yes, of course. But one has to listen to them as well as play them, and the predictable harmonic schemes cause the etudes to become rote finger exercises with little musical interest. But Czerny also composed music (like his piano sonatas) that are much more musical than his pedagogic works.
Czerni 50. Dulces recuerdos. Que. Sabio.
47:08
50 are the best !
My piano teacher gave me this to practice at my own accord
Are you playing this on a 1995 Casio keyboard?
I think it’s MIDI
Wo-
I think Record at slow tempo -> Edit at fast tempo
@@user-mb6mj5gf8x no, it isn't
@@MiScusi69 are you sure? Sounds like it
@@MiScusi69 Aww man
How come that the A melodic ascending minor scales in the end of Study no.17 are written all in semiquavers??On my music the last of the scale is in DEMISEMIQUAVERS?!!!
fast and good.
Did you have to change your electronic keyboard after all these most brilliant plays ?
Wonderful
14:12 35:44 37:22 40:30 1:05:43 1:14:09 1:15:57
32, 33, 45, 49, 50
Who is the pianist ??
Impressive !!👏
9:19 wow
9:55 this is so the romantic era
42:10
❤❤❤❤
I ask myself like a layman who does not practice 8 hours a day can play Allegro and Presto so quickly with the 16th notes.
This gives me a headache and makes me dizzy
34:04 Sounds like Ocean Etude by Chopin
Well it's different, since ocean playes not an arpeggio of 4 notes for octave, but 3.
The movement of the hand is therefore very different and i wouldn't compare to ocean
@@AsrielKujo I know how the Ocean works😂 I just meant the sound is similar. Just compare Chopin Ocean Etude middle section in C-Major to that exercise here. (And Chopin wrote that first)
@@SILAS-cb9xl yees, i just wanted to say they might have a similar pattern but when you play them they feel both very different
@@AsrielKujo I Know I am able to play the ocean etude. And to compare them I just learned the First 6 Bars of that Etude😂
@@SILAS-cb9xl ok!
No.49 bar 17-19 is 1 octave lower.
Is it artistic license?
No, it's an error! 😂😂 thanks
I checked my printed edition: it doesn't indicates the 8va. This is the reason why there is a difference between the recording and the video (I used a different edition, there are some other little differences, e.g. in n.19)
@@cleador2806 Okay. but it made climax. Thx!
Also, Where is the difference in n.19?
@@salad-sb5jl there is another edition that at 31:20 shows 8th intervals instead of 10th. I prefer 10th intervals
❤️🎹👍
crazy
No.24 is not in the standard metronome. you think right tempo in that etude?
Also, what "En carillon" means?
I have another (printed) edition, that reports original metronomes, and indicates 108. I think it is correct.
Carillon is the music box
Last, would you tell your video plan up to Op.849(a.k.a. Czerny 30)?
@@salad-sb5jl please see my comnent under op. 672
Who is the pianist ? Can't find it in the description.
Midi work possibly
@@malayaliobservant8915 its cleador
It's Nicolas Sarkozy
the audio is horrible but I like it
YOU ARE USING THE SAME BOOK AS MINE
Maybe op.365 is great
Is this midi? It’s best to state the performer or the software in the description…..
It's the performer, but it's sped up
This is an assault on my ears
Капец! Пойду попробую пару тактов в таком темпе сыграть
Am learning this song and my teacher is Xina
Transcribe for flute !
n 23 and n 41
58:32
1:08:06 huh... why does this sound famili-
_Wait..._

Ohhhh....So that's where Chopin got his inspiration for his Op.25 no 2...
No, Czerny’s op. 740 was published more than 10 years after Chopin’s Op. 25.
Please tell me this was performed by a computer or a machine. It cannot be possible to play at this tempo!
😱😨😰
It was a person playing it but it's sped up
I’m sorry but WTF IS NUMBER 39
Who is playing?
Who plays that?
Que rapidooooooo ._________________.
It's sounds funny if You play it in speed 1.25
How difficult is etude n 50?
These all are challenging and take years of prepritotory piano practice.
@@JP-uy9kq but no.50?
21:34-21:40 can’t stop listening.
Who is the pianist that played this?
@@Dukapoka That would explain the recording quality
Nicolas Sarkozy
@@marcalves6623 ok
Who's playing?
Your computer plays these very well.
Not a computer. It's a person playing but sped up
This is computerplay by a cyborg!!
Seems fast 🤨💨
It feels like it's made using computer
It's sped up, the natural decay is too quick. Still a wonderful recording.
who can listen all those studies ? j can't
I'm at 31, but not at that speed...
39:07
I cant read sheet music well at all and Im trying to play this without a teacher. Im a fool, but a determined fool. Im 3 bars in so far.
gl
Ummm there is a 3 volume czerny intro series for beginners. Start there.
Stai attento che sono terzine però.
Whose the pianist who played this?
Mr. Midi
@@AsrielKujo it’s real he just sped it up
@@bossshrek1241 nop, midi, no dymamics at all and no mistakes
@@AsrielKujo He said that he played all these, it would be almost impossible to get a midi to play these since there aren't known works. you cant even find books for op 365 or anything
@@AsrielKujo I doubt its midi
Joseph you miss me miss you too love miss love and miss you too and I love love and love you too
rip my hand
who performs
The uploader himself
Why they always sound that bad. Not the etude, the recording oof
It’s okay to me. Why?
@@IEEMAZ_Convoluted_14.2.8.5 sounds midi
@@AsrielKujo huh?
@@IEEMAZ_Convoluted_14.2.8.5 personally sounds like he recorded the etudes and sped them up. Not a problem though
This is definitely NOT an equal-temperament piano.
it has to be a midi because this is so robotic
No, it's just a person playing but sped up
Some of etudes are slower than in tempo, can you give me a straight answer?
Which etudes are slower in your opinion?
@@cleador2806 No.12, No.14 and No. 18, No.37 is slower than in tempo.
@@salad-sb5jl because the printed edition I used (that shows the original Czerny's tempos) indicates different values (69 for no. 12, 144 for no. 14, 96 for no. 18 and 60 for no. 37)
@@cleador2806 Also, is No.41's original tempo quarter=92?
and where can I get that edition?
Malísima calidad de sonido....m
0,75 is better, 100% is too hardcore
I can't believe people are here listening to piano exercises played by a computer. 🙊🙈🙉
This isn't played by a computer. It's played by a human, but it's sped up.
Manche Tempi sind anatomisch gar nicht realisierbar! Es ist eine synthetische Einspielung!
Really not a fan of Czerny at all. Just think his music is really quite horrid sounding. Completely chaotic and sounds a bit amateurish
His music is catchy, especially this one
Boooooring
It’s catchy
These midi renditions are just terrible in every way
It's making the piece sound more catchy
These are not midi, as it's a human playing but sped up
@@yuk_notkim7658 It sucks
@@therealtruetwelfth798 Yeah ig
WAY too fast. Sounds stupid at this ridiculous tempo. Try whole beat the way it was intended.
