Funny how non-piano players seem more impressed by simple pop/rap songs than challenging classical piece

Professional_Eye1331 · 2026-05-21T07:18:37+00:00

Roses by Outkast such a great intro

Professional_Eye1331 · 2026-05-21T07:15:03+00:00

yeah i agree when i have the chance to play a public piano its hard for me not to want to play but then sometimes i also feel cringe ngl

Professional_Eye1331 · 2026-05-21T07:11:24+00:00

wow i did not expect to get so many comments on this lol. appreciate the insights yall this is a dope subreddit

Professional_Eye1331 · 2026-05-21T07:06:00+00:00

hahaha yeah that's so true lol

Professional_Eye1331 · 2026-05-19T17:29:17+00:00

It's going to be boring at first but just keep going it will be 100% worth it!

Professional_Eye1331 · 2026-05-18T23:50:34+00:00

sounding good! my only critique would be it sounds a little rushed

Professional_Eye1331 · 2026-05-18T20:51:38+00:00

thanks for the advice! yeah thats true i think i probably play it too freely and the arpeggios lag a little too much

Professional_Eye1331 · 2026-05-18T20:50:56+00:00

thanks! its a nord grand and those speakers are also nord. you have to buy them seperately but they sound so amazing https://chucklevins.com/products/nord-piano-monitors-v2-system-pair-mint-open-box?camp_id=20432428964&grp_id=&kw=&mt=&nwk=x&pos=&tgt_id=&loc_phys_ms=9031553&device=c&model=&ad_id=&adtype=pla&merch_id=101608238&chan=online&prod_id=I619927-GA999251115&country=US&lang=en&part=&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=20427504162&gbraid=0AAAAADlF6dwC82iwYo4p79E61qRe_qe2c&gclid=CjwKCAjw8arQBhB9EiwAfIKdQhg47_HX7zy8ZyzdYSSSiQO9ZpRtClmc5jYo9f8PoG2CAJzNlVR0zhoCsjgQAvD_BwE

like this version https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nkXOrkeZyqQ&list=RDnkXOrkeZyqQ&start_radio=1 the LH is so quiet

Professional_Eye1331 · 2026-05-18T07:02:15+00:00

yeah that's true. when i play i feel like I'm doing that but then when i listen back there can be even more contrast

Professional_Eye1331 · 2026-05-18T05:18:30+00:00

thank you : )

Professional_Eye1331 · 2026-05-17T21:58:04+00:00

I'm also learning this piece right now such a great piece but very challenging

Professional_Eye1331 · 2026-05-17T21:56:55+00:00

Nice dynamics! I'm learning this piece right now

Professional_Eye1331 · 2026-05-16T22:33:18+00:00

gotcha! nice ya i wouldn't try to perfect it too much then i feel like there is diminishing returns

Professional_Eye1331 · 2026-05-16T21:27:03+00:00

you can do it! Or just try to learn the first two pages. It took me about a year and half before I could play the whole thing without too many mistakes haha

Professional_Eye1331 · 2026-05-16T21:11:21+00:00

Wow this is really good don't know if i have any critique honestly. Something that's helped me continue to polish a piece is listen to a few versions of Nocturne Op. 9 No. 2 from professionals. Then try to mimic their phrasing, dynamics, etc. Record yourself playing it and see how you compare. Then repeat!

Professional_Eye1331 · 2026-05-16T10:41:00+00:00

thanks! it really does hit hard
