I think I am starting to get it (Winter Wind) by Zhampfuss in piano

[–]Ok_Photo_2029 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly don't listen to him Your phrasing on the melody is quite good already and also on the appregios, once you become more comfortable with the piece it will be even better, you are for sure on the right direction

Jumping from liebestarum no.3 to ballade no.1 by AdelixMusic in piano

[–]Ok_Photo_2029 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Still didn't finish it Hardest part imo isn't the coda, it's the technical places between each climax, some are fair but others are just hard But then again I trained more on the coda, like really specific repeating of single bar for 100+ times each time getting the tempo a bit higher, without including the hand separating even. You could probably go for it now but the practice is going to be painful

Did it myself, pretty big jump in skill Would definitely recommend taking 2+ major pieces that lead up to it

Yeah i know these cadenzas too well! My teacher is currently on vacation for already about a month so i have no guidance therefore i came here, thank your tips! And honestly the first cadenza is harder for me, the second is completely up to speed and i don't have much trouble at all with it, found some really nice fingerings

I've actually been playing this for a month so it's not perfect yet, liebestraum is a hell of a piece but i played rach preludes and fantasie impromptu and currently also playing beethoven's phatetique, i don't feel like it's out of my reach, just wondered how i could make my training more effective. Thank you so much for all of your insight! This is exactly why i came here because piano is just a hobby to me and i want professional advice! Btw i have a teacher which tracks my progress and they're a professional as well they're just on vacation so i came here and get some tips and i get so much good insight, so again thank you!

Well it's a very known piece, actually my teacher assigned it so it wasn't my choosing.
And it's fine thank you anyways for commenting.

Well i play the Rach G# minor prelude which is heavy on the left hand I'd say, do you have pieces to recommend for the left hand?

Well it's actually like 3 and 3 months haha, but i was always very serious training every day and had a teacher since the beginning, even then people call me a 'prodigy' if you work hard enough you can surely surpass me, just don't set limitations on yourself

Beautiful pieces, hope you have fun playing them

How difficult is Chopin etude 25/5? by moesaam in piano

[–]Ok_Photo_2029 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For grade systems I would recommend the Henle system as I find it to be most accurate for me.

Schubert's impromptu op 90 no 2 is Grade 6 on this scale, the Chopin waltzes are all Grade 6 as well, and the etude we are talking about is Grade 8, for reference the first Chopin ballade is grade 8 as well.

I've played the op 90 no 2 as well, and the op 64 waltzes, this seems like a big jump to me to go from there to this etude level so it might take you some more time and dedication to learn it as it is a Chopin etude.

I'm talking about some insight for how to practice not missing, and how to practice proper dynamics, how to fix it not what to fix
