This is good. Helps me realised my technique was wrong for a couple of sections that I’ll need to correct. Watching you do it looks much easier than how I was trying to do it.
@@samcrackers Well thats because you need a lot of control, the melody needs to be heard and thats hard when the arpeggios always drown it. Like is always said with this piece, you need to play it very slow and gain the control needed.
@@amoryblaine2123 its to practise really hard ... and understand where is the melody and begin considering that those notes making the melody should sound stronger 👍🏻
Oh que la musique est belle sous vos doigts. Très belles nuances, vous savez faire jouer vos doigts dans les moments vifs, calmes, vous jouez avec votre corps, votre âme, et vous donnez beaucoup de joie ! J'aime tellement vous écouter Monsieur Paul, un grand merci pour toujours !
this piece is so beautiful yet technically demanding. my hand can just reach an octave so it takes quite some time for me to drill. generally my feeling is notes in chords are far away and appergios on left hand requires a lot of travel when the melody develops in later stage. now im at bar 36, just before turning to C major. whenever i feel stuck i come check your video, always helps! :)
Good day, mr. Barton! I wondered if we could hear your take on Beethoven 27th sonate? You did a great tutorial on its 1st movement, but I never found any video of you actually playing it. So please record it sometime :) It would be a great gift to me and to all of pianists who actually learning this piece. Thank you!
Beautiful! As a long time follower of your channel and tutorials, I'm curious as to how long it takes for you to learn a piece like this? I get that with more experience and practice, learning pieces gets progressively easier. Still, there are many layers into music like this and complexity comes from much more than just the notes. I often work on pieces of same length (albeit inarguably easier ones) for months and I tend to practice 1-2h per day.
Thanks, but in truth, I confess I don't have the feeling of having learned Liebesträume at all, and to me music just gets more and more difficult with experience and practice -- but, at the same time it's always as enjoyable.
Thanks for the response! I guess it is sort of a journey with no end in a sense then. When one starts out, they struggle to learn the notes - once that becomes second nature, there's dynamics, articulation, shaping. Always a next level. As a perfectionist, I wonder if that'll ever start feeling overwhelming. :D So far I am enjoying the ride.
Wow! Just beautiful! As a human, I loved it, too😁. My favorite single piano piece of all time is "Clare de Lune", and your take on it fantastic. Thank you for sharing your amazing talent.
Gracias Paul desde Argentina. Esto es además de una excelente interpretación un estimulo a seguir con este hermoso instrumento que es el piano. Saludos!
Learned this several years ago. Had it down for the most part, but 2 parts, 1:20 and 2:50, damn, I wish someone would show me how to do that!!!!! Just can't get them no matter what! WHAT is the trick to doing those????? Don't say "practice", it's more than that! Nice job here Paul!
I started learning this song from the middle section. I figured if I learn the hard section first, the beginning and end will be very easy since I’m already familiar with the technique and theory. I was pretty much right considering I learned the beginning 60% faster than the middle
@@rebecahgokee7815 not the op but I also recently finished this piece. I have played for about 3 years and all in, this piece took about 90h over 3 months. I do have a teacher although I learned this one on my own.
How dou you play the sequence from 0:20 to 0:23 /0:24 so clean that you only hear the left hand melody? I can play this piece but I never perform this sequence and 1:42 - 1:46 so well. I dont understand how I can press more notes at a time but only the core melody is really reaching the ear. Please help me :(
Excuse me, how do I play this with my small hands? (Nine keys enough for single hand but hardly to play other keys and do more actions when spreading my fingers to ten keys, which is extremely tired for my fingers.)
Hi, may I ask how to you arrange the padel? Because the way I arrange them is by the chords or per bar and the piece sounded messy with lots of "sounds". Would like to seek advice from you as I am using this piece as an examination piece. Thank you.
It took me 2 months to learn this piece and I can’t play allegro yet. More so a moderato and my first cadenza is muddy 🤪 The second cadenza looks difficult at first but once it is mastered. It is auto pilot for me.
Hi paul just wanted to know how long it would take to get that climax part down where you're right hand plays octave Ab and E octave then you come back in to play Ab B E in both hands. I have been trying for a while and some days i get it perfectly but other days its nowhere near ready for performance
I need some advice, I know this was published a long time ago but anyone who comes across this may help. There are some parts in the left hand before the cadenza which I struggle to play straight, the ones that say to arpeggiate I already do but some of the ones that dont' are quite long, what would you advice I do for those parts? I could arpeggiate those but it sounds quite wrong.
I have the same problem. Basically what I do, is repeat the same cadenza over and over. Everytime I start is again, I think if what I want it to sound like. Use a metronome, make sure your fingering is all right, and practice only a few notes and jumps of the cadenza at one time.
I have only been playing the piano for a little over 6 months and I know how to play this piece, Scarlatti k.380, moonlight sonata 1st movement, and right now I’m working on Rachmaninov Piano Sonata 2 :3
@@jacobhoover4393 Hey thanks! Right now I’m working on Chopin’s Scherzo No.1 and I finished his Op. 10 No. 1 Etude a couple months ago. I have done a lot of pieces since I posted that comment but I have been on a Haydn kick lately. As far as my next Chopin Etude I am debating between Ocean and Torrent.
I’m a grade 8 pianist, and I wonder if I can this piece as well and beautiful as you did. So far, it is quite easy, but I worry for the climax. Heard that it is extremely difficult. Do you think I can perform this as well as you did, and do you have any tips?
Ok, this makes me Hopeful. Don't see any insane left hand stretches. As someone that only reaches a ninth, maybe this is doable. Been playing for 3 years, 23-years- old right now, and i told myself i will play a decent version of this by the time im 30😆😅.
I want to learn this really bad but my keyboard doesn't have 88 keys. I want at least an upright but we can't even afford a digital piano and we don't have the space in our house so i'm stuck with river flows in you lol
Maybe, this is a bit too difficult, if you haven't even invested in a full length piano? Probably a good idea to play easier, but yet beautiful pieces, build dexterity and technique, and then in a couple years start working on an advanced piece like this.
There's a simple trick to bringing out more melody in any note: Just shift more weight into it. This can be done through angling your hand towards that finger. This only works for the 1st and 5th, occassionally for the 2nd and 4th. If you want to bring out the melody in the 2nd, 3rd, 4th fingers consistently, you have to "raise" the finger higher before you press down the note. Your finger will build up more momentum than the rest of your fingers, assuming you hit all the notes at the same time, and thus only that note will stand out. It sounds complicated when I explain it, but it is actually really, really simple.

hey Mr Barton you should get one of those electronic visualizer things like the pianist 'Rosseau' you would get so many views because you're so much better at piano then him and you're actually professional with a wide range of repetoire - imagine him getting like a million views for the chopin etude op 10 no4, if you posted a playlist of all the cliche romantic pieces with a 'reactive visualizer' im sure your channel would blow up. If an amateur pianist like 'rossaue' can do you can defintely get more views sorry for essay - im just disappointed that channels like him can garner so many views for quite a dumb gimmick when you are a much better pianist technically and musically .
@@jhdean By comparison, yes; Maestro Barton is on an entirely different level. While Rousseau is talented technically, he lacks the experiential and emotional depth Paul does, who has just as much if not more technical prowess.
Seriously, though?! I watch both their channels, and I don’t see a huge difference in quality between their interpretations. No, Rousseau is not a ‘dumb gimmick’, and although Paul may possess something deeper which he lacks, it is unfair to criticize the two channels, especially when you might not know all the circumstances or quite realize the effort put into any of their videos.
Liszt was the greatest showman in his time.
Paul Barton the greatest in his
Chopin was alive too...
Ajith P S what about Chopin
@@chopinGota Thats simple, Liszt is better than Chopin, afterall, Liszt was Chopins teacher...
@@taki4707 Where did you get that from? 😂
The camera angle really shows the technique needed to play a piece of music like this, thank you Mr.Paul Barton, well done.
For every hour I practice, I am one hour close to play this.
Perhaps in the next decade...
ah, it won't take that long. Maybe a years worth of consistent dedicated practice.
I'll join you in 2 decades 😅
that's why you have to practice 40 hours a day.
@SUCKRPUNCHED really? I wanna learn it so bad but I’m scurred! Don’t think I’m there yet like I just did Chopin waltz 64 no 2.

This is good. Helps me realised my technique was wrong for a couple of sections that I’ll need to correct.

Angry Skipper It’s hard to make this piece sound like it is meant to sound in some measures

Me: 0:09
The guy she told me not to worry about: 1:32
Sometimes simple is better :)
@@kyoushlro true but not in this case 😭
its so nostgic coming back to this video
That piece needs so much of finger control ... to make sure the melody is still heard between all those notes 😓
currently learning this piece, the octaves-to-arpegios jumps in the middle section are driving me crazy
morningaga yes how do I achieve this I dont understand how to get the melody out of all the notes im playing help please

I’d really love to hear your interpretation of Liszts La Campanella
Honestly, this is one of the most beautiful renditions of this piece. Congratulations!
One of my favourite piano pieces ever played beautifully
i really appreciate how you didn’t rush this piece, unlike almost every other recording i’ve seen on youtube 😒
I wonder how the camera is mounted, is it just hanging from the ceiling?
It's mounted onto the ceiling with a movable metal "L" bar I custom made that can slide from side to side with an additional security cable.
It’s google earth 😂
Supersmodato 😂😂😂 classic banter
Timestamps for personal use

Yeah, cadenzas
A FIERY performance!
I love how nice the middle register sounds on this piano
Funny, i've just begun listening to your old take. This is most welcomed, Mr. Barton
No one beats Rubinstein at “Liebestraum” but that is probably the second best interpretation I heard so far.
itsquitegood I think kissins interpretation is very good as well
Lang Lang’s in Carnegie Hall was the best for me
Hoping for a Take 2 of Chopin's 4th Ballade, that one is one of my favorites
How long I have been waiting for this one
He played this literally four years ago
I know, but I didn't rly like that one. This time it's way better imo
I like Tiffany Poon's version so much tho!
simply brilliant, Paul, as always. thank you for sharing your gifts with us!
Thanks for this poetic experience
Paul.
I'm gonna play this someday.
Thank you, Paul. This is amazing.
no comma needed
Beautifully played, sir.
