    I would like to learn piano some day but a fun fact. You just helped a gamer who plays "Osu" a rhythm tapping game which does require trills using keys on a keyboard. And you helped me improve tremendously. I can not only tap faster up to 850 taps a minute, but tap more consistently from the minor changes using the advice from this video. I'm sure it works wonders on a piano, thanks for the insightful video.

  • @constracted7331
    @constracted7331 6 лет назад +53

    The pinky and ring finger trilling is the most annoying out of all of them! La Campanella is especially good at killing the poor ring and pinky fingers, so is Chopin’s Chromatique etude. Very nice video as always; your animations are definitely superb. Trilling is one of my weak points so I will try out some of your exercises. I especially liked your balance example, i.e. the pencil example. I never thought of it that way.

    • @NahreSol

    • @chenyanhao676
      @chenyanhao676 6 лет назад

      I think the second etude you’re able to get away with 3-4 chromatic runs, stuff like hammerklavier 1st or op111 2nd mvt is just impossible to use 3-4. Most pianists cheat during these movements by missing out a note in the trill when they reach for a chord below

    • @constracted7331
      @constracted7331 6 лет назад +3

      banson houry I am studying Chopin’s Chromatique etude and you cannot get away with all 3-4 fingerings. It'll just end up being harder and diminish the entire purpose of playing the etude. Missing a note in a trill could arguably make the melody clearer due to no clashing of the trill notes with the melody line, which creates dissonance. Such is the case with Beethoven’s third movement of Waldstein; many pianists substitute a note of the trill for a note of the melody to juxtapose the melody from the trill. Personally, I would prefer a piece be played as written, and I favour the trill notes not be substituted. While yes, some pianists do substitute trill notes to cheat, I would also think some concert pianists are capable of performing the trills featured in Hammerklavier and op. 111 despite their sheer technical and musical difficulty but don’t for the sake of emphasizing the melody.

    • @chenyanhao676
      @chenyanhao676 6 лет назад

      Majed Kalaoun Cortot recommends 3-4-5, not exactly a pinky trill

    • @constracted7331
      @constracted7331 6 лет назад +2

      banson houry It is in most cases more demanding than a pinky trill, especially because of the dyads you have to play with the same hand. There's also a section in which you have to swiftly alternate between the 4-5 fingers as you're descending while playing dyads with, again, the same hand. That, to me, is much more challenging than a solo pinky trill. Nevertheless, in my original comment, I stated that Chopin’s Chromatique is good at torturing your 4-5 fingers (which I think is pretty clear haha), not that it includes trills.
      Cheers,

  • @benw3864

    Honestly all your trills are incredible lol. For some reason trills and strangely certain arpeggios are troubling for me. I was floored by how smooth your 3-4, 4-5, and 3-5 were because my fingers quaked at the strength I observed there

    Hi! So, I watched this a couple of years ago, and meant to start practicing my trills. Life intervened, though, and it took me a while to get around to it. However, I would often recall your demos in the video, and have been practicing most days (slowly at first to avoid injury, of course) for a couple of months. Since I don't have a piano right now, I've had to make do with table tops, etc., but they work pretty well. Also, when watching Barry Harris' videos (and your bebop video with him) I became interested in his "dim 6" scale, worked out the fingerings, AND his block-chord style of playing (like George Shearing), so have included multiple-note trills in my practice. Thanks for being here to remind and encourage us in our practice!

    Yeah, trills! Immediate like!
    I love les barricades misteriuses. It's actually my current alarm clock sound (when it goes off I let it play through)

    Good video but I wish you had also mentioned sharp/flat trills: I find such trills much trickier because the fingers are on different heights to begin with and it almost always sounds uneven or my fingers just get tired quickly :(

    Had to slow down the 7, 8, 9 and 10 per beat to see how it feels. It actually is an awesome exercise and not so hard to do right when you memorize the patterns in your head, the problem is playing with your lightening speed... it'll take me some months of good work i reckon. Thanks for sharing

    This is cool, I liked the idea of writing the trill out and trying it out at different subdivisions/speeds.
    Also, I find that practicing chromatic scales with alternate fingerings, 1&2(&3), 3&5(&4), 4&5(&3), 3&4(&5), and 1&2, can be helpful

    Very nice sounds, and very clever ideas. And whoa, you're fast! I never thought of using more than two fingers for a trill, sharing the load. But then again, I'm a guitarist, so I'm trill-challenged and only my left hand really gets it. Maybe that's why BB King wrote The Trill Is Gone? ;)

    Saw this video earlier today and ignored it. Then I seated and began learning Vivaldi's spring. Got frustated with trills and opened youtube, and here the video was again. RUclips knows things about me before I myself do!
