Hurbii Ahaha same, perhaps it’s just that I prefer minor keys. It’s supposed to be C major but doesn’t sound like it. But ok, this piece is really fast so um...
Thank you for posting this with the sheet music. I bought Pollini's record when it first came out in I think, 1973. I remember Edward Greenfield's review in The Guardian: " ... Pollini, an artist whose magic hangs by a thread ...". His record of the 24 etudes is one I have played incessantly for nearly 40 years and it still sound 100% fresh, especially this one, my favourite.
Ahr Jay yeah I had to stop playing for a week because of the pain. I think the problem was that I was lifting my elbow too much when moving up on op10 no1
That's because you probably try to play it like "takatakatakataka" when in fact you should think of the passage as a melodic line which "breaths"! Do not try to lift your fingers all the way up it is impossible!
I remember the first time I heard this etude on the LP of Pollini playing all the OP. 10 and this one just sounded like noise to me. It grew on me later.
Its 21.11.2022., my teacher gave me this 1 week ago, i am doing well, i have a competition in a month, to which i will go depending pn if i finish this peice, so wish me luck( i am 14 btw, playing piano for 9 years)
I think this is the only etude I can fumble my way through close to the written tempo lol Well, I couldn't until tonight when something just "clicked" in my right hand.
My ears are cramping up just listening to this I tried to read through this yesterday and couldn’t even recognize it, my goodness the speed you have to play to make it intelligible 🤣 😭
please dont overtrain and damage your wrists/hands... I over practiced for op10 no1 and i was so desperate to learn it that i kept on practicing even though it hurt. I learnt to play it but ended up damaging my wrist in the process... very dangerous ground
@@thatnguyen2981 his hands are too small then. Nobody's hands should be damaged after playing any piano piece unless they're a begginer for that piece.
@@bakuto.1055 really bad take. There are people who can barely reach a 10th and can play the etude very well. Chopin himself had small hands. The aim of that etude is to span from one note to the next, smoothly, note after note. You aren't supposed to reach whole chords.
@@filipmartinovic4594 Most people say Chopin had huge hands and some say even bigger than Rachmaninov's. You're the first person in my experience that is stating the opposite. Are you sure of that statement (= Chopin had small hands)?
The Tokata style of this song is very difficult to bring out the atmosphere. Regato and framing skills are needed, but I don't think it's a problem for Pollini, who has a huge amount of effort and a huge amount of technology.
How sick do you have to be to be able to play this so fast? I play the piano and organ myself for home use. And quite passable. But if it gets too fast, I lose track of things. for that you have to practice 10 hours every day or something. Something else is sure to fall by the wayside.
It's almost funny how Chopin took C major, the least complex key signature, and made one of the most difficult etudes in his entire set Op. 10 (I'm referring to no. 1 not no. 7 here, still love this piece lots though)
To newFranzFerenc liszt -- WHY do you put an ad after every one or two etudes? Do you REALLY think that enhances the listening experience? Its ABHORRENT. You should be ashamed!!! Thumbs down!
0:58 is so beautiful idk why
It's probably because Pollini is superb at pedaling.
So beautifully and wonderfully expressed, with subtleties that are intricately woven. One of the better renditions of this piece, for sure.
I was born in 1957, just in time to see Rubinstein, Gilels and Ashkenazy still performing on visits to Brighton, and Horowitz and Richter in London.
shantihealer Must have been a lasting experience. I doubt many pianists today come close to their skill and stlye
You are extremely lucky
Seeing Richter playing live must have been an extraordinary experience as it is with all the Greats.
Pollini won the Grande Prix du Disc for these Etudes.
Perhaps the best rendition of this piece I have heard, to date.
The Master playing The Master.
This is kinda turning into one of my favourite piano pieces ever O_o I dunno why I love it so much O_o
+mcrettable Cause all those applied dominant sequences in C major
+Fevimaster huh? lol
mcrettable #MusicTheory ;P
***** oh i gotta get me some of that fo sho

I don't know about you guys, but the melody is so catchy for me! It also expresses sadness and joyful
This etude as well as Op 10 no 1 have managed to put a good hurt on my right wrist! Careful! D:

Crispy Agreed. I’m still new to piano, but playing a bit more fluent and legato (when the piece is intended to be played that way) is far less tiring.
Danke für dieses hervorragende Stück. Ich höre es nur zu gerne
Klasse!

Hints of Ballade 3 at 0:44
Chopin always does that, he wasn’t hinting the 3rd ballade ...
Yeah every time I hear that part I think of ballade 3
I am willing to imagine that this hints at the second ballade coda more than it does anything else. Just look at those 2 1 finger repetitions.
currently practicing this etude and i could no longer feel my right hand after many practicing sessions...
wut a pain...
be careful
this is worse in etude n2 (weak fingers)
Take it easy. Even Chopin himself advised his pupils to stop playing if they felt physical pain.
@@delko000 no, this etude’s quite a bit easier than Op. 10 No. 2
@@jackcurley1591 thats what im saying

I have noticed a lot of Chopin's difficulties to be mastered are in the right hand.
depends on which etude
@@delko000 almost all are right hand
@@derekpintozzi2498 almost all piano pieces ever written are for right hands
@@delko000 exactly
Try op 10 no 12 and op 25 no 7
This etude is murder.
My ears are cramping up just listening to this
I tried to read through this yesterday and couldn’t even recognize it, my goodness the speed you have to play to make it intelligible 🤣 😭
1:02 is my favourite part.

so sad

@@bakuto.1055 wrong. even if my hands could reach a 14th, lacking bad posture and form can still destroy your hands..

he plays very smoothly!
Rest in peace maestro
Extreme demon
1:02 is my favorite part
greatly!
idk why but this etude rly reminds me of schumann's piano concerto
A very fine performance of this étude. I have always admired the complete recording but the piano sound has always seemed a little shallow.
Looks like Schumann op.7 in some places)
yes but way easier then shumann op 7 lol
This study sounds like a cowboy bar with them drinking and playing cards
0:18
why do i always find you in the comments?
Has the liebesleid vibe to it
My right write just cramped up from watching this.
לא תרצה אישה או תלך ללא כיסוי ראש או עם איפור ולא ירצה איד אשת חברו כל הנשים יהיו יפות מארצות היופי וגם הגברים מארצות היופי. נשיי יהיו הכי יפות.
0:44 Ballade no. 2 vibes
Ballade 2 coda training etude
Right note etude
I note this one imma get this too

선화예고 입시보는 분들 화이팅
Lol I don’t think this is the hardest. I’ve played this piece and winter wind is way harder.
Thirds, Winter Wind, Waterfall, Torrent, Ocean, Chromatic, and probably a couple others are more difficult.
0:22 Liebesleid?
Omg ur right
Can you sheet me a music sheet ?
Gâo zào cójes!
It's in C major. How hard could it be?
It's almost funny how Chopin took C major, the least complex key signature, and made one of the most difficult etudes in his entire set Op. 10 (I'm referring to no. 1 not no. 7 here, still love this piece lots though)
C major is usually easy to learn, but that doesn’t mean it’s easier to play
C major is just easier to read not to play
C major does not conform to the hands very well. Chopin often taught its scale last, because of this.
Too fast
