- François Couperin (1668-1733): "Le Tic-Toc-Choc, ou les Maillotins" (from the "Pièces de Clavecin", Third book (1722) 18th Ordre in F-Major)
Dušan Holý - piano
Formula: RR-A-R-B-R-C-R-A-R' ... (I added one more time A part in the end.. I like it, it fits - as a small recapitulation.. sometime I put even BA (without refrain in between) to the end like "backward-recaputilation" ... also sounds good..
*****
In the past, I've got some request to post some video with closer detail on hands... So, I hope Couperin satisfies this requirement properly.. :)
Thanks for watching..

I can't stop listening to your amazing performance ♥️
@@tamuna36 Thank you! I hope I will be able to create some new "content" soon. :) .... everything is so "weird" now.
The posture and the humming/singing are very gould-esque...
including the " no feeling machine " attitude ... listen to Sokolov if you want to taste this delicious piece
@@isabs8616 ok, Sokolov's playing is unbeatably beautyfull. But if Sokolov is the only person in the world, who plays this piece better than Dusan, I think, Dusan can live with that very well :)
Beautiful performance-Perfect tempo and mood. :-)
Thank you. Wish you happy fishing!
I can't believe he just pushed thru those difficult second part the same speed and ease as the first part. that's amazing. and the final improvisation is very to the point of baroque style. Sokolov's version is amazing for its delicate touches and crispy pearly tones and articulations and control. This one stands alongside his for its speed and bravura on youtube without doubt.
Yes. Thanks. I remember recording the piece on this specific piano in school because this piano has the quickest response.
Again - this wasn't "try" to record the most delicate and cultivated-touch-version ever. Comparing this to Sokolov - as the others do, it is completely "out".
Brilliant rendition! You are immensely talented.
Thank you! Always having fun is the key.. :)
That speed.. Amazing main melody of the left hand.
You are the devil !!! ♥️🎼👍
Dušane, spadla mi brada!
Ahhhhh.... "Marcela is back!" :)
Pusu neupadávej. Potřebuješ žvejkat jídlo a mluvit s okolním světem. A to dost dobře bez spodní čelisti nejde! Tak honem, nasaď zpátky!
@ ❤️🎼
Dušane, já Tě sleduji a poslouchám stále! 😘
Co skladba, to pekelně těžká a brilantní hudební pecka 👍
Umíš ! ❤️🎼
Your skill is really amazing... I've heard dozen versions of this piece, but never with that dexterity ! Really impressive, congrats !
Impressive and splendid performance!
Thank you.
Incredibile!!!!!!😳😳😳 Complimenti!!!!! BRAVISSIMOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Thank you. Happy that you liked that. 😎
I would love to be in the room..beautiful work
Einfach herrlich, das zu hören
Danke schön. Ich freu mich, dass es dir gefällt...
Absolutely love this 🤗❤️😊
Thank you! You can also check out the new version which I uploaded couple days ago...
I have watched this video dozens of times - it never gets old. Unlike some, I love the tempo at which this is played. I have also seen Sokolov's version (on a tuned piano, in a concert hall) and have also enjoyed it very much. We all know that there are many ways to play a piece, as your sock-in-the-mouth version of Couperin's Tic Toc demonstrates; (Olga Scheps has a slow, lyrical version that I also enjoy as it showcases the charm of the piece.) I don't see any need to choose "one" interpretation as the "correct" way to play Couperin's Tic Toc Choc, although I do understand that we all have our own preferences. But how boring the musical world would be if every piece were interpreted the same way by everyone!
Even though this performance was "just" a practice piece at the conservatory, I am glad you filmed and posted this. I have - repeatedly - experienced much enjoyment from listening to it. It expresses wonderful vitality. Bravo!
Comment worth "virtual gold coin". Fully earned!
My trust in humanity is a bit stronger now.
.... :) Not a long ago, some guy commented on my "shorts" with Knight Rider theme cover that "I am fake". My fingers "don't match the sound". ... :)
People today let scammers steal their money on the phone but video with me, playing piano is not trustful enough... Up-side-down-istan we live in.
.....
Thanks for the comment. When I get little older and I feel older than here, I may record Tiiiiiic Tooooooc Chooooooc BPM45 or so. Lets's see...
Or.... I should just try on my "new" piano which I finally have at home. So much to play. :)
Best version I heard. Bravo!
Thanks.
Lindíssimo!
BRAVO !!!!!
Thank you..
You can play it quickly, but can you shape it and have line? I can see the Gould influence, but he always had wonderful shape, rounded and cantabile (literally 😂) tone, and wonderful arch.
Don't misunderstand me, I like the improvisation, but I feel like you can make this even better! ❤
I think I should write one big:
PEOPLE, THIS WAS NOT CD RECORDING, THIS IS NOT THE ULTIMATE AND FINAL RENDITION. THIS WAS JUST ME PRACTICING PIANO AT CONSERVATORY AND FILMING FOR FUN.
... at the beginning. People judge this "record" as if it was studio professional recording.
Do we listen to Richter, Ashkenazy or Gould "how they practiced?" (Ok.. with Gould, we may have a few archives...)
But my point (and I wrote it already like 5times here)... - How can people even "compare" this home-made record with something from Label CDs or Sokolov playing in Berlin filharmonie, I don't understand.
And about "shaping" and "rounded tone"... maybe I don't feel it like that... maybe I do feel this piece very mechanical and "primaritize" this instead of making it "nice lovely tone".
Fair enough not to agree with me. I can't please everyone's taste...
And who knows... this is already over decade old record. Maybe today, I'd feel it different.
Really amazing !!
god level
For sure not. Good thing about classical music is that "god level" is unreachable. Bad thing about classical music is that "god level" is unreachable.
:)
Whoa, this was IMPRESSIVE!!!
Hehe... Thank you!
Bravo bravissimo bravoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
Absolutely brilliant.
Happy you enjoyed! D.
"Wonderful"
Bravooooooo!!!👏👏👏
Want to echo previous comments about the clarity of this interpretation (and the lack of necessity of the Gould-humming). Doesn't take away from the accomplishment though, you plays this as clearly as if you had two keyboards, and retains the musical line nicely throughout the complexity. Very good!
Que c'est beau Bravo
Bravo!
Thank you
Amazing ~~
Insane!
Ah... c'mon. Don't exaggerate.
Wow that's awesome
I am surprised at how much this sounds as if it could be Padre Soler.
meraviglioso.
great!. I owe you a beer
Cheers, mate..!
che talento...ma bravo!
Amazing!
I have a doubt, the version for clavichord can be played on a piano or that version was adapted to piano ?, because I understand that the harpsichord version uses two manuals.
a is correct. We play the piece from the same music scores on the piano as on the harpsichord. No adaptation/trancription. As you can see, it is little bit tricky because some notes are "doubled" --> both hands play on same note. Actually most of the time, both hands are very close. But it is playable.
Sokolov approve
No no no!!! There are some other comments here around and they say: "Sokolov is even more impressive". I think they are all right. Sokolov was recorded by professional team in Berlin philharmony concert hall, where he played on of the best Steinway piano in the world and probably was preparing for his tour for like half a year (as he always does... --> more than half year of preparing and than concert tour for couple months). Compared to my video where I just took my camera to school where I just practiced this piece (for couple days) and recorded myself for fun..... Well. Yeah. I agree. That is way LESS impressive. :)
@ Write what you want but for me your execution is wonderful. ;)
@@rodluc2001 I was kind of trolling/joking, man.. :) Appreciated of course, thanks for your comment(s)..!
Durchgeknallt, aber genial. Bravo !!!
Marvelous! A fantastic piece and a fantastic rendition! I own Couperin’s “Pieces d’Orgue” and his first 2 “Livres” or “Pieces de Clavessin” but don’t know where to find this piece at the moment, but no matter....really great playing, awesome!
Pieces de Clavecin - 3rd book, 18th Ordre in F... :)
Dušan Holý oh cool, thanks! I’ve been buying Barenreiter’s books and they’re only up to Book 2!!!!
you can find it on imslp . org webpage... search for "couperin pieces de clavecin" --- you will find Volume 3, there page 90. (just checked that out, but youtube does not allow me to post the link)
Dušan Holý oh cool, that’s ok...I’m familiar with imslp.org....i have downloaded Kerll, Telemann, Handel, etc. from them...but I didn’t know they would have Couperin’s “Livres”....very nice, thank you!
Bravissimo!!
What's the trick to playing the notes shared by both hands like, for example, the first note?
hehe.. difficult to give an easy answer. just try to think every hand different, like if you were playing on two registers. Right hand plays faster notes so it goes closer to the keyboard (making smaller but quicker movements) and left hand goes on top of it playing in more "jumpy" style... Of course you have to cheat this little bit - if I remember well, the first note is written long like it should stay for the whole bar which is not possible in case you play on one register... In that case, light pedal will do the job.
I think the most important is to follow your left hand... Try to think only your left hand (give it all the importance) and make your right sort of "automated" ostinato.
(and also - right hand plays more on the edge of keys while left hand goes deeper to the piano...)
Thank you so much for the timely reply! (Given the date of the upload I was a little doubtful you would reply hehe, glad to be wrong about that.) Your advice makes good sense making the piece much more approachable. I'll give it another go!
I have also heard this played by Grigory Sokolov and I like his version better as it is not so fast and the music seems to flow better . We all of course have favorites and other people probably like other versions better . Peace to you all . T
Nádhera... :-)
Genial
:)
🎹👍🏼
This is the fastest version that I have ever heard but not the best. It doesn't sound like Couperin's music. Thank you for posting anyway.
The very best is to switch to 1.5x speed in the settings... Maybe "it doesn't sound like Couperin's music", but it is quite fun..
Congratulations for your virtuosity ! Perhaps a little too fast for me but it's worth the Sokolov's one !
I agree, the virtuosity is brilliant, but I prefer the Sokolov version because to my ear it has more nuance
Well... If some people even "try to compare" my record (learned in few days as a piano-etude-kind-of-exercise-for-my-fingers), recorded on badly serviced school piano.... versus Sokolov's record from Berlin Philharmony hall (or some similar concert-house), when he played the piece like for a half year, on one of the best pianos in the world, recorded by professionals.... These people must be little bit ..... how ... to .... say.... that...... .... stupid? :)
Don't worry about the Sokolov mentions! There's room in this for both of you. :-)
I think it's "pretty cool" to be compared to Sokolov. The fact that some people can't distinguish the difference between Berlin Philharmony concert hall with one of the finest Steinway pianos and some small conservatory room somewhere in Utrecht, that is nothing to worry about.
Thank you for your comment!
@ P.S. I don't think you need to talk about the piano or room or anything, or to explain or justify anything at all. The performance speaks fully for itself, and is marvelous. As you say here, it's great just to be talked about together with Sokolov. The fact that people are seeing fit to do so speaks for itself too. This is fabulous playing that disguises how near-impossible it is to play the piece on a single-manual keyboard. (BTW, anyone who doesn't know quite how hard that is, please try it! I do know, because I did.) :-)
Chevere
Jára Cimrman má určitě radost!
Maj to v té znělce akorát asi dvojnásobně pomalejc... ale jinak máte jistě recht. Ať žije, "génius" jeden.
hi glenn (thats only a compliment)
I understand. Before I entered Prague cons., I had no idea who GG was. But GG was one of the "subject of fascination" of my teacher (RIP 2 months ago).
His biggest was Sviatoslav Richter who was their family friend, he knew him in person, very well. But GG was very high on the list too. 😃
If you’re up for it, I’d be honored if you’d look over my Duet for B-flat clarinet and piano...it looks simple, but it’s not when you join the clarinet...let me know what you think...I hope you don’t take this as soliciting! I don’t know how to message you privately....sry
You can send the scores to message @ dusan-holy . com (all together). I can read it once I have a moment by the piano. But I have no clarinetist in my close surroundings right now.., unfortunately.
Dušan Holý i just sent you an email testing out the process, i.e., that it doesn’t go into a junk folder, etc.
jojo :-)
Král je mrtev, ať žije král.... nový Couperin. Oponožkovaný. :D
I like it but it's a bit rushed.
This video was never meant as a "final and definitive" performance. I just recorded myself while practiced the piece (and uploaded for fun, but people somehow like it a lot :) ). Maybe you will like my other version better... it is little slower. - ruclips.net/video/Dq4IH12oN5A/видео.html
Don't hurt your back
My back is mostly very fine... I have some pressure in my brain time to time (just when I randomly look around), but my hands, back and other body parts are fine... I do not know (thanks the God and thanks to my good teacher) what is pain or some pressure while playing piano.
I would say the opposite... not long ago, I've moved from town to town and that included lots of moving, carrying, stairs up&down, heavy furniture etc.. and I seriously f*cked up my back... I was also sick that time with some flu, and that all combined together in the result - such a pain in my back which I've never experienced before in my life.. 2 or 3 days I was crippled and I cried after each little move.. Trust me or not - after these intense 2-3 days of horrible pain, the first I could do and feel completely out-of-pain, was ....----- tradaaaaa - yes, playing piano...
2:31 wrong note there and it ruins the entire performance!
I'm kidding, very well done!!!👍
I always leave one "mark" to be sure no one else uses my record under his name.... and historicians / musicologists, one day, are gonna have less job.
I'm kidding too. Thanks!
2x speed
Yes!! :)
Way too fast. You’re missing notes.
"Way too fast" - don't agree. "You're missing notes" - I do agree. Note that I recorded this video years ago just for fun while practicing at conservatory. Also, I could easily edit the video (I mean audio) in Cubase and correct all the wrong notes... but I don't see any simple reason why I should. :)
Watch Sokolov
Even More impressive
Your right about Sokolov, although slower it seems to my ears more musical with Gregory!
Deja pas mal, mais ça ne vaut pas ALEXANDRE tharaud !
Je ne parle pas francais... :(
Una pagliacciata...povero Couperin. Quantomeno Sokolov ha più musicalità anche se neppure la sua versionemi piace
Grazie per averci fatto sapere!!
BRAVO!!!
THANK YOU!!!! :)
Bravo!
