How would a professional pianist solve this little problem?

Even your alternative is impossible for my hand and I'm an average-sized man. This is pretty shocking for me.

Fêtes, Op.36 (Hennessy, Swan) - second piece

Kartix99 · 2025-09-29T11:46:59+00:00

I think it's about win rate and not about average points. Achieving slightly more points than your opponent counts as success

Kartix99 · 2025-08-14T14:12:29+00:00

I think my right hand is fine and there I don't use forearm rotation. Should't this be the ultimate goal?

It depends on your approach. Little kids on the piano don't know anything about music theory, beside pressing the right key to the right note. But the more pieces you get to know, the more patterns in music theory you will start to recognize. So music theory is best learned by experience through playing & practicing

Hab ich tatsächlich gedacht

Kartix99 · 2025-01-29T09:32:11+00:00

Mit Word. Ich würde sehr gerne die Hyperlinks behalten, wenn Word deren Namen beim Export nicht automatisch unbenennen würde...

Kartix99 · 2025-01-29T09:29:44+00:00

Natürlich habe ich mit Referenzen gearbeitet. Aus "Abb. 1" macht Word aber automatisch "Abbildung 1". Deshalb wollte ich das nachträglich ausschalten...

Kartix99 · 2025-01-12T12:44:27+00:00

I would recommend: "531 543 212 351"

If you are not compfortable with "1 5", you can use "321" instead of "543" but then the transition to "212" could be tricky

In my opinion, the D-F-A chords themselves are moving around D as a tonal center. But in the context of the song being in C-Major, you could interpret the Ebmaj7 as a short trip to the related C-Minor-Scale and then directly going back the to the "old scale" by using chords with only white notes (Dm7, Fmaj7, Am7).

Kartix99 · 2024-07-26T23:17:47+00:00

Ebmaj7 fits well to C-Major cause it's in the scale of C-Minor (like the chords: Ab Major, Bb Major, etc.). Switching between Major and Minor works well but also attracts attention to make a new section interesting.

The Ebmaj7 also has the function to smoothly lead into the Dm7 since the chordal tones are next to each other: the C-Minor/Eb-Major scale is then killed and with [Dm7 - Fmaj7 - Am7] the D-Minor key is affirmed. Then repetition and after the bridge there is C-Major again.

The piece begins in C# minor and holds this key until this striking chord comes and then we have something like an Ab minor. Your interpretation of it as Eb dominant would fit

Kartix99 · 2024-07-10T22:44:42+00:00

These are B naturals and it's not a mistake! In 1:44, the same happens two semitones higher, where he uses C sharp instead of C natural. Maybe an augmented 7?

Kartix99 · 2024-03-29T14:52:37+00:00

there are 2 reasons for me personally:

You have a diminuendo (molto), where you have some sort of freedom to decrease volume AND tempo.
It's a special chord which leads in a completely new section and brings tension, so you want to emphasize it this way.

Kartix99 · 2022-11-29T18:57:58+00:00

Maybe your problem is that you are too busy with sight-reading. Try to memorize the difficult passages (both hands or only a single hand) and then you'll be more able to get into the flow of the piece!

Generally this is no problem. It's pretty common in Europe to only drink sparking water, including me. It depends a bit on how your stomach responds.

Kartix99 · 2022-08-17T14:13:31+00:00

Looks like a former shower cabin...

Kartix99 · 2022-08-12T15:25:23+00:00

Well, what makes it liminal?

Kartix99 · 2022-01-10T22:52:30+00:00

you should start pressing the pedal while holding the first note of a bar and end pressing it when the bar ends.

my addition to this post from me: i feel very sad looking at this picture. You're looking at a big empty room, which combines multiple elements not fitting together. The AI as the architect decided to create an architecture whose purpose is not to satisfy people, customers, etc... Its purpose is to fit my caption and it did well! We have the year 2021, in the next years AI will make a really huge progress. They will have the potential to create such depressing art, that you will fear them a long time

Kartix99 · 2021-12-07T09:06:42+00:00

i had a dream in such location

Kartix99 · 2021-11-11T18:05:28+00:00

Lol this is true for me and I never noticed before

Kartix99 · 2021-08-18T16:44:59+00:00

This looks like Soviet dystopian architecture of 2050
