      Many thanks, I been tryin to find out about "do you get calluses from playing piano?" for a while now, and I think this has helped. You ever tried - Poneyton Introductory Preeminence - (Have a quick look on google cant remember the place now ) ? It is an awesome one of a kind guide for discovering how to master the piano minus the headache. Ive heard some decent things about it and my buddy got amazing success with it.

    His "Spring" interpretation is so amazingly beautiful it makes me cry every single time I listen to it. His music has healing powers. Listening to his newer album "Sleep" is a game changer because it alleviated my depression and anxiety.

      Hmmm. I was born in Germany, of German descent, and live in Berlin. Still, I am American.

      Nope, you're german with an american citizenship. Unlike european nationalities, the american one isn't worth anything, because it's an immigration country with no ethnos and real culture behind it. You may become american, but you can't become british, german, polish and so on...

    I like Richter's interpretation of Vivaldi's Four seasons. His music gives us calm, peace and joy of heart. This music helps me follow apostle Paul's advice: "...whatever things are true, whatever things are of serious concern, whatever things are righteous, whatever things are chaste, whatever things are lovable, whatever things are well-spoken-of, whatever things are virtuous, and whatever things are praiseworthy, continue considering these things" (Phillipians 4:8).

  • @dt6822

    He is better than Vivaldi. The fascination over his identity is a wrestling many Germans go through, particularly those of high ability - to somehow attempt and reconcile what it is to be German in a post-war world, especially when one displays such superior aptitude and mastery in a field of human endeavour. What I think the Germans are tempting to reconcile is why in music does he flee from his Germanness? Surely that's the one realm we haven't lost credibility in and can be proud of our accomplishment. But I think the explanation is a lot less esoteric and it's simply about his cultural upbringing. And I genuinely think he is better than Vivaldi. His music is more profound by the nihilism coloring his world view. And that is all too German. 😆😅🤣

    • @georgetate6055
      @georgetate6055 2 года назад +1

      C'mon. Vivaldi lived over 280 years ago! Can you imagine a world without Vivaldi, esp. his string works?
      If Vivaldi hadn't written The Four Seasons Richter couldn't "re-work it!"

    Warum Britisch? Wenn er in Deutschland geboren ist und Deutsche seine Eltern sind? Nur weil er in England gelebt hat? Dann wären meine Eltern ja mal indisch, mal deutsch, mal kambodschanisch, mal griechisch, je nachdem, wo sie gerade leben? Bei Michael Fassbender sagen wir ja auch halb irisch, halb deutsch, weil ein Elternteil deutsch, das andere irisch ist, oder nicht? Gibts da nen Unterschied?
