Jazer Lee is an ABSOLUTE BEAST

[@djulianofficial]

He is indeed a beast

[@KILLADOBY]

I’m 14 and i just started playing classical music on my keyboard and i love them so much this type of music really expresses my feelings especially on piano and it calms me and makes me very tired and sleepy😅👍🏽

[@xanderk84]

Nice. Classical music is a mental workout, hence the sleepiness, but your brain will strengthen over time if you keep it up and you'll feel less tired out by it.

[@JaneBrueton]

It has the same effect on me, but then I'm old enough to be your grandma😊

[@Jeffrey-ep2ez]

All the best on piano.

[@yangmyung974]

❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@wiggetywut32]

Thank you

[@Jim_Mundy]

Really love this with the overhead keyboard shots. Such a great tool to consider fingering options for some of these pieces. I’m still at the beginning of the list. Love your content! Thanks!!

[@relaxtime2412]

Music is the language of love to me. I just can't live without it.

[@johncubbin825]

Thank you so much for reminding me how many wonderful pieces there are for the piano. It is very motivating. (I speak as a 77- year-old learner.)

[@timspiano5054]

Hey Jazer! If you want to, I would love ro hear full covers of pieces you have learned! You are an awesome pianist technically and dynamically so if you could post full pieces that would be amazing. If not, that’s all good😊😊

[@sylvietellierpianoamateur]

You are a master of the keys,thank you so much for this great moments.

[@isko_francisco7934]

I started playing piano around 9 months ago. Since then, I realized, that classical music is one of my favourite types of music. I already learned full versions of Prelude in C major and Gymnopedie No. 1, also learned the beggining of Für Elise

[@zoeolsson5683]

Those two pieces are so magical and yet so approachable by a beginning player. The prelude in C is just a stunning chord progression journey.... Simple rhythm but I feel it's like a cup of tea: warm, regulating, restorative, mindful

[@meilin3989]

Wow! Ur a very fast learner! I have played piano in 6 years and i learned für Elise when i was 9 and i’m 12 now😅pretty bad lol

[@Martial-Mat]

Loved it - that was like a tour of my favourite childhood piano pieces! Didn't recognise them all, but then I'm not piano music aficionado.

[@rogerparkhurst5796]

Good overview of key classics!

[@bencheng9506]

Thank you so much for this great video! I can use it as a guide list for future learning!😊

[@pcavesnana]

That was a concert in itself!! Wonderful!!

[@robertbourke7935]

Wonderful performance and beautiful pieces

[@NabPunk]

I like how you started with pieces lots of folks can actually approach. I also liked how you went all the way to Liszt/Paganini, where all of us went "I guess we can just listen to the music, no need to try that" :p.

[@zoeolsson5683]

Hahahah truth

[@soeren72]

Its great to be alive today, the bar for what is called music is so low, compared to just 20 yrs ago or more. 🙂

[@Gustavo-x8f3q]

Indubitably

[@EasyPianoTutorials]

Love this!!! I'm a classical pianist and this is awesome! So many memories!

[@cecilgriffiths6399]

Beautifully played btw! 🙏☺️

[@tplayspiano]

This was wonderful, thank you.

[@JD-io2ct]

What a fun video. But I absolutely thought you would end with the 3rd Movement of Moonlight Sonata which is so exciting and brilliant and shocking! (Also I was hoping for Chopin's Ballade No.1 but very pleased that Chopin was so well represented.). Loved it.

[@user-Zguy]

I recognize so many of these piano songs ❤ love the video 🎉🎉🎉

[@29brendus]

Great presentation, excellent camerwork, I've leart a few things I had previously missed on!

[@marciamadeira846]

I love hearing you play and the selections. I am working on the Chopin waltzes, and Debussy- Claire de Lune and Reverie, among others. I will listen again and I like your 2 cameras. ❤️🎹🎶

[@siddcandy]

Damn… I have missed out on so many great music… and I have just picked up playing the piano. Well, I guess I’m set for the next sixty or so years!😀 Great job, amazing lessons man!! Keep up the outstanding work!!!🫡✌️

[@pasadenaphil8804]

I had clear favorites before I got back into practicing new pieces. I still love the big 3 iconic Debussy pieces. Just added "Reverie" and "Claire de Lune" to my practices as well as Lizst's "Gymnopedie" and Handel's "Passacaglia" The list is now 8-9 pieces and includes the usual "Fur Elise", "Moonlight Sonata", Bach's first 2 "Minuets". I am also working on a couple of easier Schumanns but not the one you played. They are all beautiful but many on your list are just out of reach for now. But I have a good list of pieces I "visit" once in a while just to torture myself. Knowing how difficult the future is makes practicing the "easy" ones more productive. I am getting better faster so there is hope that I won't suck forever.

[@LiquidTurbo]

Yeah! Need more Jazer playing

[@zekiyezeynepsahin9449]

Thanks a lot. I enjoyed your performance greatly. I have played Moonlight Sonata and Bach C major Prelude.

[@colomboeduardo3961]

Maestro Jazer: this was amazing!...thank you very much for your advices and guideness. Un abrazo desde La Palma.

[@alphacen3465]

Great selection Jazer! What's missing in my view is Chopin's Nocturne No. 20, C-sharp minor, Op. Posth.

[@cesardiezv]

Chopin's Ballade nº1 also has a great intro. And I love the beginning of Op. 25 no 11.😁

[@olga2023]

Loved to listen to you play

[@Starfish3942]

Great inspiration! I’m A beginner at 40, but have small hands….. can only reach an octave just…. I don’t know how this bodes for my future as a player? 🤔Would you do a video on pieces to play for small hands please please please?! 😊

[@c.a.7522]

A list of well-known pieces, a very nice reminder, also with increasing difficulty in my opinion, because Liszt's La Campanella, although extremely beautiful, is also extremely difficult to play(= level insane😅). Bravo, Maestro! Thank you!👏🏻

[@pamcrewey4248]

Recognized 7 by name others Ive heard 10:22 frequently but did not know the composer, I can play 6 of them. I sure had a good teacher then, and happy to have another one now!! Thanks for the mini concert, Jazer!!

[@MichelleConradie-j5o]

That was stunning

[@nadinemoseley6041]

So amazing, as a complete beginner I'm in awe x

[@wiggetywut32]

Thank you for this. The Clair De Lune intro has been etched into the back office my mind for some time, yet I was having a very difficult time putting my finger on the name... I found it is not easy for the average group of modern persons to identify a classical melody based on my humming, pedantic as I may have been. Also, you play Rondo Alla Turca beautifully. My sister was fond of this and also played it well.

[@dennisalvin77777]

magnificent!!!! thank u and keepup the good work!!

[@paulaevans8335]

So awesome.

[@nevetsny1]

Gershwin Preludes 1, 2. Aaron Copland Hoedown (transcription), Doctor Gradus ad Parnassum, The Hours and Etude (#2) (Glass), Organ Sonata #4 (Bach), the second movement of Beethoven’s sister sonata to Moonlight.

[@zoeolsson5683]

Yes to these

[@jayantjrathod]

Superb Sirjee 😊

[@datoubi]

Great collection!

[@virajsmagic8301]

Big fan!

[@nancywebb1845]

You are an amazing pianist. What about Passcaglia?

[@Ocean31233]

We are waiting

[@Hawkesfilm]

What a great video

[@john5880]

Very good list, you're pretty good

[@doubleeagle136]

ยังเล่นเสียงแบบนี้ไม่ได้แต่สักวันจะรัวมือซ้ายได้แน่ เยี่ยมทุกบทเพลง👍👍👍

[@sirpakorh]

Could you please tell me what piece is played in the end of all your videos? I absolutely love it!

[@degangemimi2215]

Wonderful

[@level8893]

I wish the intro to Chopin's Scherzo no. 2 could have made an appearance. And Beethoven could have easily had three or four more entries; the Waldstein, the Appassionata, the Moonlight 3rd, Pathetique. I just don't know what you would remove if you wanted to keep the list to 20, lol!

[@sylviapaul6844]

Beautifully played❤

[@danielpalmer6266]

Thank you !

[@pianoanywhere7827]

I love some of the pieces. On my list, there would definitely be Chopin -Scherzo no. 2 and Ballade in g minor. And Tchaikovsky Concerto in b flat minor as well. But all in all, great list😊

[@emmanuelmengot9061]

Great intros 🎉🎉.

[@AndroidSon]

Wow! There also are great finals in all musics.

[@lynndawomack5496]

I have played them all.

[@angeladavis891]

The only trouble is, Jazer, that I want you to continue to play the entire pieces!

[@shadowflame105]

Lmao I can see liebestraum on your music stand I can tell just by the jumble of cadenza notes at the end of page 2

[@markwassink2535]

One that I trully love is Promenade from Bilder Einer Ausstelung by Mussorgsky.

[@magdad.72]

Nice set :)

[@miketalcott5180]

Chopin Cm Prelude, Brahms "Lullaby", Brahms Intermezzo in A, Beethoven Sonata No. 8 Cm

[@fatmathepianist]

Chopin ballade no.1 is also so iconic 🙃

[@michaelfinn1803]

You play so good, missing one Piece , Mary had a little lamb, thats a classic not to be missed. LOL

[@barbrajacobs4560]

Hi Jazer I have started to play piano after 50 years my left hand is weak so I am finding it very hard to link both hands together I think your lessons are truly inspiring and amazing Can you give me some tips on how to put this right I would be most great full if you can I think also you have a special gift I love the way you explain everything Please can you give me some tips Thank You so much Sincerely Barbra Jacobs U K

[@mkwaxingstudio2602]

Canon in D and chopin waltz in A minor!!

[@user-pz6hs6wi6f]

Chaconne in D Minor from JS Bach, arranged for Piano by Ferruccio Busoni. (Kissin played a very famous Performance of it). I think it sounds even better on the Piano than the Violin which it was originally composed for.

[@MendozaMichelle100]

chopin tristesse etude op. 10 no. 3

[@kecelibu]

Great list but I thought you would add moonlight sonata 3rd movement. Its beginning is also amazing

[@mostafaheshamahmed1607]

Nocturne in c sharp minor is a sort of famous piece. Ballade no 1 maybe. A lot of chopin's work is 'famous'

[@JD-io2ct]

What do you mean "maybe"???? LOL.

[@mostafaheshamahmed1607]

@@JD-io2ct It's famous within the community but most people that don't conventionally listen to classical music wouldn't hear of chopin's ballade no 1, even though it's one of his best works

[@lannniekaraoke8872]

I am learning Preclude in E Minor by Choppin/Gymnopodie 3 by Erik Satie

[@tejassapat3880]

How about Mariage D'amore?

[@anonymousblackscreen4703]

What about Nocturne in C# minor, Ballade 1, waltz in A minor, or maybe Rach's LLRH?

[@covertcee]

Fabulouso!

[@ElliyahuRosha]

Minuet in G by Bach (Petzold)

[@tommykim4999]

Hi, hope you're doing well. I just got some question. So basically I can play entrance from phyx ion. But I have a big fingering problem which reside in the following with the left hand. Fa, do, Fa, sol, la b, sol, fa, do, fa, sol, si b, la b, fa, do, sol. (all notes on the same 8th) And that at 260 tempo. So what's the position you would suggest. I got used to 2,5,2,1,2,1,2,5,2,1,2,1,2,5,2,1. But that really don't work with such hight tempo. Anyone who'll answer this will be my hero! ❤

[@myeggyweggy]

I am waiting yayyyy

[@jasminka_romantyczka]

The Rachmaninoffs' prelude in c is very nice, altough it feel kinda heavy, always prefered the g one

[@3213470]

You should make a tutorial on La Campanella

[@kwesisarpong7246]

Bohemian Rhapsody has an.awesome intro too....

[@jamesgordon1446]

How many months /years before I can start to tackle pieces like Claire du lune or moonlight sonata 1st.

[@Cookiedoggy3545]

I think für Elise is one of the most recognizable of all

[@MonsieurFeshe]

All of these are just super famous pieces that get started immediately, I thought this video would be about specifically what makes the intros great, but all of these intros are just what the piece sounds like the whole time! An ACTUAL example of a good intro would be Appassionata 3rd movement, it perfectly sets the mood, but it's actually an intro, not just... you know, the piece.

[@kjwong4730]

I know most of these pieces from my kids baby Einstein toy I really like #14

[@vivacepianostudio]

Beethoven’s Pathetique Sonata 1st mvt.

[@khoaho8077]

Can you make a tutorial how to strengthen those fingers ? I have a big problem in performance stage. The keys of piano which I practice are required a Force about 2-3g to touch. However, the keys of piano at performance stage are super heavy and required about 7-9g to touch. My tutor simply said that I just need to come soon to play and get familiar with grand piano. But only 10-15 minutes are impossible to get familiar with the heavy touching and everything were mess later... 😢 (no more time because it's crowded and only 15 minutes per pianist) Are there any exercises to strengthen fingers stronger ? I mean it's required to strengthen daily, not before the stage. P/s: most of time I practice on upright piano at home and I have not many chance to play on grand piano.

[@OgheneyoleOrofa]

please, what book are you using? The one right before you

[@zoesbakingchannel2463]

im working on hungarian rhapsody no. 2. Also i think that hungarian rhapsody no. 6 should be on the this list.

[@lawrencetaylor4101]

Did you add a trolley for your overhead camera? Impressive video techniques?

[@jules153]

Beethoven Sonata No8, 2nd Mvt Chopin Op10No1

[@meilin3989]

I’m gonna let my teacher play all these😂and i am learning Arabesque no.1 by Debussy so could you please give me some tips to make it easy for me to learn?

[@luisbalderas-ariza2644]

Awesome

[@luisbalderas-ariza2644]

What about the grand sonata the pathetic?

[@Mila-MeiCheung]

I would like you to do Nuvole Bianche and experience by Ludovico Einaudi pls.

[@bradwatson7324]

Just to have a more recent piece on the list, I might have added the theme from Schindler‘s List. It’s not just orchestral. The film ends with it being played on piano.

[@marywhite5216]

I want to learn Tchaikovsky's June!

[@VjeraRadovic]

Veri nice iz Lizst Consolation no 3… Lizst Romance 169, Chopin Spring walz..Subert Serenada..

[@gmfrunzik]

Did you get this video idea from David benet piano?

[@Zagginair]

I’m a little surprised Chopin’s Waltz in Eb was chosen over some other pieces. Don’t get me wrong, that waltz is probably in my top 3 favorite pieces by Chopin, but I don’t think too many non-pianists are familiar with it. I think more people might be familiar with Chopin’s nocturne in Bb Minor, or even his funeral march? Or perhaps Revolutionary Etude, or even Black Keys Etude? 🤓

[@dabnauta]

Ballade 1 is missing!!! 😢
