please don't think you're boring on youtube, your content is very original, where else are we gonna find a down-to-earth piano genius traveling the world? ^^
I agree - I love classical piano and I find it so interesting to see all the behind the scenes from the live of a Classical Pianist..
It’s more worth it watching a traveling pianist‘s vlogs than to watch most boring old family vloggers who’s kids are into sports!!!
Also, don’t feel like you have to make content for our sake. We will enjoy whatever you give us
I agree. If she wants to post less often I support it, I don't want to be a shore, but at the same time, I don't want she thinking we are bored or something. It provides a very different energy from most channels, a more calm (in an authentic way).
EXACTLY my thought!! It's a truly unique and fascinating perspective, thank you Tiffany for offering us this glimpse!
The fact that you're getting 6 year olds into classical music is testament enough to how incredible a musician you are, Tiffany. Don't ever think you're boring, I adore the special tranquility your vlogs bring and am always excited when a new one comes out.
From the bottom of my heart, thank you so much for what you do!
🙇🏻♀️🙏
Thru your videos I've come to realise that a professional concert pianist is very much akin to a professional athlete, a very finely-tuned physical, emotional and mental human being who works intensely at bringing all those parts into unison at a specific moment in time, with the goal of bringing that perfect performance together, a performance that only exists in their mind until they create the reality.
Boring? Psssh not even. It's so nice to get to adventure with you and just a small glimpse of your experiences makes it amazing. Thank you
love is never boring.
music is love.
I feel always better after your video than before.
come back soon.
Really enjoyed your Video ! Thank you for allowing us to watch them !
thanks for labeling all the music you played! it really helps when I want to listen to the unfamiliar ones.
for anyone else like me, the intro piece is from R. Schumann's Kinderszenen (Op. 15, No. 1)
its so incredible to see how far youve come in the past 4 years. very inspirational
Still not far enough...🙇🏻♀️🤞💪 Thank you for coming along my journey 🙏
@@TiffanyPoonpianist the ongoing journey is what makes life fun and exciting ❤️ im happy to stick around 😊
Attracting young audiences to classical music is what counts, a lot.
Gotta revisit the "Faschingsschwank"! Haven't played it in 22 years.
Thanks for sharing and taking the time for us.
barcarolle in f sharp major just wow...simply sublime, thankyou
You are not boring.
Although you may say you show the same things over and over again, there is always something new that you present to us, even the little things you noticed in your journey like that birdsong sounds in toilets there and the fact that you stayed in a place where you had easy access to outstanding natural scenery. It's refreshing to see someone like you who's so keenly observant on stuff that many people simply overlook as part of the mundane. Also, showing your sensitivity to ever changing factors (e.g. jetlag) which affect how you play on various occasions highlights the human element with what you do. Keep it up.
Just have to note that your successive yawning from 9:03 made me drowsy from yawning too. 😆
Like your Finland tour. Enjoy much your spirit💕🌷🎼🎵🎶
Like what you said *looking forward not the past* You look gorgeous even ending in front of a bathroom😮 Always looking up on your performance... Astonishing finish at the second half😳
dont worry if you feel like your videos are getting worse or anything, because for 1 they aren't and for 2 even if they were we wouldn't really care. just keep having fun, making videos or not. don't feel doubt, and be confident. music is just vibrations in the air, missing a note has no consequence in the world whatsoever. just enjoy it
Dear Tyffany, you are not boring at all. When I listen to your train of thought, it's like hearing myself. That's exactly how I talk. 😁
One of the clogs I enjoyed the most. And watched every single one of them
I think for me and many other people you are a deep breath of fresh air, you're the opposite of boring, you're truly inspiring
Hope you will go to Paris someday so I can watch you play
Thanks for everything
Tiffany, even if you chose not to do piano related stuff on RUclips I’d still be subscribed :) I love your vibe in general. So infectious and calming.
Glad to hear how conscious you care about your physical and mental energy so that you manage to prioritize things under such overwhelming learning process!
Always enjoy your playing and learn from your "random" yet wise thoughts in your sharing :)
I VERY MUCH fell back in love with the captivating art of classical/orchestral music bc of this video. You are literally a mesmerizing being, and your unfathomable talent and self discipline is breathtaking. The way you become "intimate" and make you and the piano compliment and compromise with watch other is UUUUGGHHHHH AWE INSPIRING 🥹🥹🤤🤤🤤🥰🥰🥰🫶
What a great recital that I still remember fondly. So glad to be there listening your music and met you in person. We drove for 3 hours to Mäntä just to listen your live concert. It is so unique feeling because we are used to watch your vlogs and following your trips in front of screen. When we are one part of the your journey the experience is totally different, it became unforgettable. Your music on that day was amazingly beautiful and the audience were completely in your flow. That's why we encored so loudly.
❤You are truly an inspiration. You have no idea how many people you are inspiring every day.❤ Thank you so much for your passion for piano, your curiosity modesty for the world. You are not boring at all. ( happy to hear you like Finland^^ )
Ohhh it was also very special for me to finally meet you and other audiences from behind the screen after all these years. Thank you for making the drive and for the kind words ❣️🤗
@@TiffanyPoonpianist 😘
Back again with another banger vlog! love everything about it and the background music is always perfect ❤️
Aww thank you! Matching music with scenes is always my favorite to do in editing :)
Mendelssohn's Songs without Words just makes my heart flutter every time
I feel seen 🙏
@@TiffanyPoonpianist I felt like that this whole video 😭🫶🏻
Yeah, I was not familiar with that Mendelssohn piece and it stopped me in my tracks -- had to find out more about it immediately!!! For me it's a "so beautiful -- must learn!"
I just discovered you and your channel and believe me, I have come across and watched a lot of pianist channels and none of them are as natural, friendly and entertaining as you, even though they put tons of effects on their videos. Thank you so much for opening up and sharing your feelings with us without any fakeness.🙏🏻🎶❤Hope I will become like you some day😊
That was a phenomenal performance, I could see the passion radiating off your body language. Great to watch and listen to. I love these videos because they offer something very few others can on RUclips. Thank you for another one Tiffany!
You inspire me, Tiffany. Your talent and hard work are always a joy to watch, and your music a joy to listen to.
Thank you for the video! They are so wonderful to watch and listen too-and they motivate me to practice! Because of you, my favorite composer is Schumann, and I enjoy nothing more than listening to a bit of Schumann after a long day of school or just before bed. I’m so glad you had fun preforming this concert ❤
Ohhh!! That makes me happy. Schumann! 😃🎶 Thank you for exploring music with me ❣️
Thanks for sharing what you've been going through recently - and especially delighted to know you had fun with the concert! We are always grateful for the effort you put in your videos. I can't agree more about the editor (though it must be taxing on you), as it's always pleasant to hear your inner thoughts and what you are experiencing, presented in your own personal way. It's something truly valuable!
What a timely and wonderful treat to relax me after a day of work! Wonderful video and the music parts were so enjoyable! Thanks for sharing! Will go to Patreon to hear it all! ❤❤❤❤❤👏👏
I haven’t watched the video yet Tiffany, but I know it will surpass anything I imagine as all your videos do…
I really don’t want you to get demotivated and I hope for success on this channel and what you do…
Dear Tiffany , you are definitely not boring , you never could be ! It's always great and inspiring to watch your videos and listen to the music - and your lovely voice ! ❤🌹🌹🌹
my memories of Finland are water. lots of water everywhere.
and bakeries. water and bakeries. beautiful. a place full of respect and passion.
you suit those blue trousers with the shoes. when you sneaked onto the stage during rehearsing. you look great in them.
is your next gig at the Massimo or Politeama Theatre?
hi, i love your videos. i had listened to your performances before, and decided one day to come back to them, and discovered you made videos like this, and have enjoyed them since. i find them very relaxing as well as entertaining, and find they are very motivating to me as a pianist in college. i even find myself returning to your podcast occasionally. love what you do, as well as many others 💕
🥹 Thank you, Eunice! That's very motivating to hear 🙏
Another wonder that come to us to give happiness to our lives. Also beautiful and charming
Congratulations on what must have been a wonderful concert experience. Good to see you enjoying yourself!
Thank you! 😊🙏
these videos are so great. we get a sneak peek behind the podium curtain and see what exactly means to be a superb classical soloist -- all the struggles included. makes us value the nice performances even more, having seen the person behind the mask. and yay, first ever reporting in from the loo by a high profile pianist 😀😀😀😀
i love how u always open with the same schumann piece playing in the background haha
Thank you for sharing your experience and thoughts ❤
I love your videos and they inspire me to keep practicing even when I get frustrated
Helsinki is very good. Glad you got your luggage and the pouring of the coffee went smoothly!
I really enjoy hearing what your (not) crazy brain has to say, so thank you for taking your valuable time to keep making these special videos.
It has been a rough week for me, and the mix of nature, music, and interesting things in this video (as with them all) just helps to smooth it out. Thank you, and take care.
It is always so inspiring to see you take the challenges that arise head on as they pop up! ♥
Immersion in new and demanding repertoire, crises of confidence, solo travel, jet lag, keeping up with the fan base, and secrets, seems like that just goes with the territory of the path you have chosen, or just simply calls you. Still, it is always a pleasure to look in on your unique and sometimes quirky view of that path. You are exceptional Tiffany, you are able to spread that inexplicable feeling that belongs only to music. Before I stumbled upon you on You Tube I thought the romantic piano repertoire could not interest me, thank you for clearing up that misunderstanding…glad to hear that the Finland concert was ultimately fun and loved that white blouse…be kind, keep striving.
Awww, always enjoy these vlogs and hearing “in the life…!” Wonderful pieces. 🙏
Hi Tiffany, these kinds of videos are definitely not boring, love seeing them, always very interesting, please keep them coming. i keep my fingers crossed you perform in Scotland one day :)
Nice to hear you liked Finland 😄. I was very close to coming to the concert, but unfortunately I couldn't this time. Fortunately I can always enjoy your RUclips videos 😄. I've also followed your journey for years, you are doing great and are very inspirational 😊.
Great video as always!
Thanks!
Thank *you!
Your content is amazing, I was waiting for a new video!
My dear you appeared tired and no you are not boring so cast that aside. Tiffany. I have started following you recently. At 71 years I’ve had a lifelong love for classical music 🎼 and piano in particular. Once as a young boy dreams of being a classical pianist occupied my thoughts. An unrequited dream but am still passionate about piano. Tiffany I find your openness both refreshing and charming. You have made an enthusiastic follower here. I wish you success, happiness and fulfillment in your endeavors. God bless and keep you safe.
You re an amazing pianist and This is truly one of the best piano channel on yt ❤❤
12:45…my heart breaks! I’m 42 and started piano lessons 3 months ago. It’s been an honor to listen to your music and be able to grow watching your rhythms, hearing your sounds, etc. you are anything but boring!
Hey Tiffany! I love your amazing music and your videos! Thank you for sharing your musical life with your fans! You are truly an inspiration! Always . . .! 🎹
Great vlog , I think you’re the biggest inspiration for my starting to juggle again but to vlog for the fist time whilst doing so . Having retired form it professionally just prior to practicing the piano for a few years .
"I'm not into flashy concert attire."
Tiffany out here coming for Yuja Wang lol.
Wow listening to your album natural beauty, it's simply sublime, wonderfully amazing, the clarity and piano playing simply stunning, thankyou so much!
God Bless Your music playing!
i know this is a month old, but i watch your vlogs ALLL the time, you're one of my favorite people and i love your love for music. keep striving! love ya lots!
Con gratulations Tiffany. With your honesty, sharing your personal experiences as a concert pianist, as an incredibly reflecting, talented and amazing artist - and sharing your life and understanding to us, so we can get a more personal impression of the artist world. At a both high level - and some time touching normal coincidences in life. Keep up the good work Tiffany, behind the piano, in the Vlogs. You are an inspiration. Love to you
I love your videos!❣
Thank you so much for the Mänttä concert. It was an incredible evening, even if the seats the museum had were awful to sit on.
Awww thank you for enduring through the concert!
I love your vidoes & Articulations of these complicated peices of music ❤ keep going ♨️
I love your comments while you practice
I thoroughly enjoyed this one. Well, I say that for every single one! Never boring, but the way. Each event is different. Each day is always different. I’ve gotten used to bathroom/restroom acoustics as part of some of your vlogs! Did chuckle about the restroom with birdsongs!!😂
I like the shirt. Finland looks beautiful with the trees and lakes.
JUST MEMORIZING ANYTHING MUST BE STRESSFUL...AND COMPLEX MUSIC PIECES... I WOULD BE A NERVOUS WRECK ALL THE TIME....HATS OFF TO YOU! GREAT JOB AND VIDEOS!👍
Interesting to see parallels to professional sports, even esports. Stuff like controlling emotions with precision. Talking to close friends/mentors helped me with confidence before big matches. I wonder if you use a wrist brace to prevent wrist pain? You inspire my own piano journey, especially with how relaxed and professionally you approach your day-to-day surrounding it.
That fidgeting that guy did during the concert with his leg was definitely not a sign of being bored or smth, I and pretty much everyone here in Norway do that, I even do it sometimes while practising piano (never during a concert though ofc xD)
New video YAY!!
Tiffany, please could you make a video on how to practise efficiently? like for people in college who only have 2-3 hours a day max, would really help
Looking forward to Sicily
When I performed I could always hear my father coughing in the audience. I could always tell his cough. His hands would be so clammy. He was a nervous wreck when I performed.
Consider performing in Asia! We here would love to hear you play as well.
Welcome back
@22:45. Now you get it! 😉 Well deserved congratulations to you. 💐
Rachmaninoff in Palermo. Looking forward to it!
Would love to see you in Australia some time, Tiffany! ❤ Going to show this video to my boy- who has watched your Mozart Rondo K485 many many times recently 😊
If you ever feel unconfident, just follow your heart when you play and it will be fine as you have put in the hard work✨👍🏻💯🎹🥰
Happy to hear it was a fun recital. Yay!!
Please know that in my humble opinion everyone of your videos is a unique, special “snowflake”.
Many thanks for adding piece information to bottom-left-screen. It’s very thoughtful!
See you on next video 😊
awesome video, Finland is very especial country, they have the most famous heavy metal music in church!
😯
Oh boy - an upload :) :) It's been awhile - but always glad to see it. Have always wondered what the definition is for you as a musician between a recital and concert. You obviously don't have to disclose finances - but is there a financial difference between the two? What about when you play with full orchestra? Have followed you for years - keep on keeping on - you are doing great.
sneeze, bless you!
nice!
Thanks for the interesting video. The Finnish rest rooms you shown are classy, modern, and clean. Could they be the world's best.?
Although you have always been a first class artist I now hear a maturity in your playing that I generally only hear in much older musicians, by which I mean the quality of musicians who seem to have superior careers. I think that what I might be hearing in your playing is that you seem to play with the assurance of a composer playing their own music. I hear the same thing in Yunchan Lim's playing. I never get the impression that you are playing for an audience, it's more as though you are playing for yourself and have the technical freedom to be swept away by the music and not be aware of the audience. I'm definitely not attempting to compliment you it's just that your sound has become so special that I felt compelled to make a comment about it.
I am not bored in a slight way. The more important part is that it does not become a shore for Poon, so she needs to post less often I am 100% with it, but it's inspiring see her struggle and grow and the energy is calming, but not in an artificial way.
wow havent heard you play much mendelssohn. Hes up their with my favorites, that first piano concerto is badass. Also the Serious Variations just perfect
I just came from your Widmung. And heard your Mendelson. Just want to hear more.
WHAT!?? I didn't know you are in Finland!!
Flashy clothes? No way. Your playing is the real you. You don't need extra attention getting methods. Your music is pure and beautiful. I appreciate your clothing choices...no distractions just beautiful music played beautifully.
nice long video, yay!
Kezdem szeretni a zenet.....Egy ilyen csodalatos no altal,masok is igy jarnak...
It's really beautiful and motivating to see the dedication to perfection. Keep it up!
I liked your Libestraum version, I listened after hearing on the radio today. I'd enjoy doing a violin/piano duet wherever in the world u r
I hope that you get invited to some concerts in Ireland (next door to UK). I also hope that RTE Lyric fm offer you an interview to introduce to an Irish audience.
As Glenn Gould once said, "performance is a blood sport", however, this point has been overemphasized IMO and most of the blood part takes place in the imagination of the performer. Sure an audience member might hear some mistakes here and there but that's not really what we remember from a concert, unless it was a hideous mistake. We remember the passion, technique and interpretation of the artist, and of course the glorious music. Sometimes performers are too hard on themselves and forget the loving gaze and appreciation that an audience gives you. Remember the love and the shared part of adoring the music. In the end that's the salient point. The music! Thanks for sharing your struggles as well as your triumphs.
❤❤❤❤❤
That was an absolutely beautiful concert!😍 20:05 That person was sitting right next to me and I also found that constant movement a bit annoying, and yes, that's my head in those video clips of the concert😂
Thank you for coming!! 🤗
love tiff
💜💜💜
I always get second-hand stage fright with those. Sweaty palms almost like watching free solo climbing, like, no room for error...
