I wish John Bloomfield was my piano teacher.

It's a pity that this video can't be translated into Italian, I don't understand English, but I was able to understand from the examples.

Such a beautiful performance. Albeniz at its finest. Brava, Wei Luo!

❤❤❤❤

Yes! I need to practice this more at higher dynamics. Thank you!

❤

Good advice

good video, keep it up!

That first note though, haha

This is amazing... What a gift!

This is pure gold thank you

First Comment

Thank u ❤

With great respect, as this work is devoted to the art of manually extracting beauty from pianos, using a cookie cutter computer generated piece of fluff as an intro and underscore seems so incongruous! Thanks for hearing my comment.

What I like about my Taubman teacher is that he's got a rational solution for every difficulty. Eventually, I get to the point where I can work out my own solutions based on principles, but of course I have to check with the teacher to make sure I've gotten it right. He makes me aware of not creating a "solution" until I'm sure it's the right one, because breaking a wrong movement is really difficult. It's also clear that he has a plan, with specific repertoire to address the progressive learning process. I'm able to send him emails with specific images of places where I need advice, and he's always willing to address them, either in replies or in a future lesson.

This is so informative.She’s so patient

Jin is the most incredible teacher you can imagine. He is so empathetic, so understanding for any kind of problem that could occur and also he understands music so deeply and most important he easily transforms music into words, to explain it to his students and hence back into music. He is a true gem.

Such dignity and clarity.

Strange audio dropouts when the Ondine pattern is played at length

Good lord, the ads. Every other minute 😑

I have spent years developing ways of avoiding playing between the black keys - not sure what this was about - dogma that has nothing to do with actually playing the piano?

As an ordinary piano beginner, I feel very lucky to be able to watch and “participate” in such a first-class world master class. Thank you YT!

Click bait.

Very good !!

This is invaluable information for those who step through it very carefully. As much as one tries, it's so easy to overlook the small details without realizing it, and so having an actual Taubman teacher is great help.

is the fa chord with 54 a single rotation to outword or a double?

There was absolutely nothing in there about fat fingers and playing between the black keys.

Bravo ! WE

Thank you for this wonderful review! This is very helpful!

Without going under with your thumb during a scale, how do move forward on the keyboard

...1st. rule: the student's responsibility is to learn to feel how where and when the body makes the finger react involuntarily... learn to feel cannot be taught!!!

please what is she playing at 39:50 ? thanks

what is she playing at 39:50 please ?

Why is it you never see these supposed technique experts never play at speed and something like Der Erlkonig 🤔

It's impossible to know what you are saying or doing without filming the actual keys

Edna Golandsky is the most intuitive teacher I've ever worked with! It was such a privilege to have played for her. She's the best of the best.

An extraordinary sense of temporality !

I can add that I heard once that an old german pianist Arthur Schabel said: immer spielen Sie zu den Klavierdeckel hinein und leicht aufwaerts. I think actually that was what Robert said about the ondine that its possible with the right adjustment its possible to feel the light weight of the keys even when very close to the lid.

Thank you Robert that was inspiaring with the scale. The technical solution on beginning of the ondine gave a technical idea on how to play Brahms exercise no. 38 from 51 ( not area😢) but the exercises for Clara Schumann. In no 38 one can also go inwards with lateral forearm and natural relaxed hand as one unit without bending the handwrist from side to side. And next the rebound you mentioned so in no 38 only the first chord swings up the unit and the next 3 16 notes comes with the natural relaxed hand to ensure no aftertension so it should be felt like 4 beats each bar but its challenging with the difficult grips close to the lid. I was taught that the lateral movement of the loose unit a letter no 8 laying down letter no 8. But thanks you demonstration gave the last clue tgat obe can go inwards to the lid with an unblocked carpal tunnel so the airflow dont get stock. Best greetings Thomas

The most concise explanation. Thank you very much.

Teach me

Brilliant inspiring I am back at it after 40 years and her ideas are already helping me play with less effort and tension!!!!! I do a lot of yoga and it would also help a lot in terms of releasing tension and stress especially for the upper neck and back areas.

It's funny how different people sounded in the 80s (or maybe this is the early 90s?).

Nice to see ya John! Love that advice on the Mozart Sonata

Don't talk while you're playing, please. Piano sound blocks the speech.

what does this excerpt imply, that inactive fingers move along (follow through) with the active fingers (when playing a scale?)..

at last someone who keeps the pedal down to the last chord of the final bars, that is what Ludwig wrote, brava!

Could you do one with turkish march. Im having troble with it. I keep on hitting the wrong notes.

Thank you 😍
