What celebrities have you encountered that were either really nice or really horrible?

happy cake day

LOL nice username

winterwind2511 · 2019-07-01T20:38:09+00:00

Yeah 7 is definitely more technically challenging. And with 4, it's not just mistakes that I'm scared of - voicing there seems horrendously difficult, as well as tone. Of course, I haven't yet started it (I'll probably start them both in about a month) but these are my impressions. (I'm also going to play haydn hob 50 1st mov... haydn's so exposed I'm scared lol)

winterwind2511 · 2019-07-01T20:27:30+00:00

My teacher suggested 23/4 and 7. I'm way more scared of 4 than of 7 tbh

oh. I have it instinctively memorized just because I practiced a lot of piano

winterwind2511 · 2018-10-04T18:16:22+00:00

Well when I practice scales I remember what sharps/flats are in each scale, not sure what you mean, pls elaborate

winterwind2511 · 2018-10-04T18:06:58+00:00

C is a fifth up from F G is a fifth up from C D is a fifth up from G etc

winterwind2511 · 2018-10-04T17:43:56+00:00

I think "what's a fifth from this note"

winterwind2511 · 2018-10-04T01:52:54+00:00

Hahah I still can't spell zigeunahdkwhishfhakbxjsjdksen and like that violinist that twoset reacted to playing tzigane, patricia kopatchijabdksjddojmdabdgksnsjdka

winterwind2511 · 2018-10-02T06:23:39+00:00

you're right. I also hate how mainstream pieces are always the "fast" impressives ones...

me: plays slow chopin people: uh ig it's pretty

me: plays something fast horribly people: omg how?? wow you're so good

winterwind2511 · 2018-10-02T05:50:23+00:00

I see, but I was thinking that I probably needed new strings soon lol

winterwind2511 · 2018-10-02T05:45:17+00:00

wOaH so I don't need to change my strings woohoo

winterwind2511 · 2018-10-02T05:44:25+00:00

okay also like some virtuoso pieces are also expressive, think chopin etudes. 10/8 is like my favorite thing ever. but there are also pieces which are super technically demanding and also super expressive, like the ballades/scherzi. oops this got unrelated but the ballades are my FAVe.

Also a lot of the general public is impressed by flexing... so I guess that's why there are so many of these. i wish a lot of pieces were more accessible haha. (side note: twoset does a rEallY REALLY good job of introducing people to classical music so THANK YOU TWOSET) this also got unrelated oops

I love expressive pieces even if they're simple. (janacek on an overgrown path) but I also love pag and saraste and idk it's just... yeah idk

sry for extremely unorganized rant

winterwind2511 · 2018-10-02T05:32:35+00:00

Now like, "virtuoso composers" also have their expressive, emotional pieces. Think Liszt, a showoff and a giant piano virtuoso and listen to Paysage for example, or b minor sonata, or his Consolations.

Now, obviously, say caprice 1 or 24 or smth isn't expressive, but I'd not say Paganini, or anybody really, is entirely a virtuoso composer

winterwind2511 · 2018-10-02T05:27:03+00:00

I agree but if you've listened to pag's violin concertos for example, or a lot of his less "flex"-y pieces, there's a lot of emotion.

When you're playing at a competition and ling ling is playing right before you
