Nicholson's performance in this film is probably the greatest depiction of the archetypal angry young man that I've ever seen. He's brimming with so much talent but so much frustration, a man who could probably do anything he wanted with his life but can't find anything he truly wants to do. The contrast between his rough, swaggering exterior and the beauty and gentility of his piano playing is so wonderful and striking and this scene in particular, showing all the faces of his relatives as he plays, really exemplifies the weight of the stifling familial legacy he's struggling against.

This scene encapsulates the character. He is a man of depth who absolutely cannot connect with others. He's alienated from anyone who wants closeness, exemplified by the final scene in the film. Intimacy of any kind repulses him. So, he reveals his depth and immediately negates it afterwards to avoid any real connection. Quite a script.

This scene always rakes back through my memories; memories of my grandfather's playing. Especially Chopin and Debussy. My grandfather was always critical of a player's mindset when he or she floats through some of these very haunting pieces. "You must always be careful while playing, - careful that you do not become emotional". Was it 'emotional' ? Perhaps his thoughts were - 'too emotional', or indeed, not becoming emotional 'at all' ! This statement of his forever bothered me. Music is a language, it is indeed a communication from a player to a listener. The greatest of human creations is that of language. Russian, Arabic, Chinese, English. Hieroglyphics, Mathematics, the Sonnet. The Electrical schematic, The Computer Algorithm, Morse Code, and of course, - the Musician's Prelude - are all, every one, - a language. A communication of some meaning, from the efforts and intent of one mind to the eager impatience of another. From where within a person does it come ? To be sure, - to 'like' a piece of music is to illicit a prescribed response. Undoubtedly, there are those I'm sure, be it listening, or those of which the page of script brings about an admiration entirely couched in a piece's structure, cadence, or overall form; a marching, - or military piece of work may be an example - and these are hardly 'dry' - 'inspirational' would be the better word. But to my mind, - the profound sadness or agony of a person's heart or soul 'must' be communicated, and such an effort is indeed written. Without even seeing the sheet of music or looking at the player, - you can 'hear', - you can 'feel', the message, the delivery, - the 'meaning' of a composer's intent. I can play a bone-dry 'secular' piece of work, as if I were dictating - or programming a algorithm. But I personally cannot play some certain agonies of mind and spirit, - a destruction of soul, or the utter ruination of the heart, without that near loss of consciousness, - the tortuous murder of a heart - as if being helpless while cruel devils claw at, slowly disembowel, and utterly destroy all of what I once was. So, I guess my grand- father and I will be playing very different venues.
@misspamela34682 жыл бұрын
Honest, authentic, and beautifully written comment. I'll be playing at a similar venue to yours because..." where words end..music begins" . If one is unemotional while playing, you are offering nothing of yourself . What you wrote here is exceptionally wonderful to me: "To my mind, - the profound sadness or agony of a person's heart or soul 'must' be communicated, and such an effort is indeed written. Without even seeing the sheet of music or looking at the player, - you can 'hear', - you can 'feel', the message, the delivery, - the 'meaning' of a composer's intent." It is known to them only as we may have a similar experience but unless inside their head, we feel and we try and interpret to the best of what that piece means to us. We don't ever truly know their intent no matter how many analysis' we read because it comes from the composer and what they hoped to convey. There are those who plays the notes and there are those who "feel" and give of themselves. Thing is, we are the dreamers and we can't always know the composer's intent, but we have emotions, and time hopefully gives us more wisdom with which to embue our performance with more than what others may have experienced. We are lucky in this way. Most anyone can play the actual notesfor "easy pieces". It takes an entirely different person who wants to communicate something vastly different to make those notes "sing". I loved what you wrote. Your grandfather is not you and you think and feel differently. It's interesting to me that your grandfather has made you think all these years and you have found your notes, your voice, and that's as it should be. Thank you so much for this wonderful post.

Only a musician would know that after youve played a piece many times the emotion, thought etc is pre programed into the playing and you are not really thinking or feeling anything.

This is my favorite rendition of this piece. I know it's not how Chopin or one of the greats would have played it, but I think the way Jack's character begins rather rushed and apathetic, and then concludes with more feeling is rather telling about his development in the film. It was the first piano piece I heard that really did move me, and this rendition has forever been ingrained into my memory as the penultimate performance of it.

omg on so many levels. I don't know if Nicholson actually played the piece we hear, but there is so much said in the performance. His performance is very repressed and almost rigid. All the notes are there, it's played technically well, but it's holding back the emotion, almost afraid to dive deeper into the cathartic nature of this Chopin piece. Just like the character Bobby Dupea, this piano performance reveals almost nothing about the pianist, and yet we sense that there is a lot in there being held back. The woman, Catherine who is herself a musician, sees that repression and that's what moves her--not any outright emotional display but the fact that he's holding back is what gives her pause. She's moved because she feels sorry for him. But Bobby immediately ridicules her because he knows he's been called out and he feels vulnerable. This piece is impossible to play without revealing something of yourself, no matter how hard you hold back as Bobby tries to do. Throughout the movie he's avoiding things and running away from his past & present. But in this scene he's forced to confront everything (symbolized by the slow parade of photos on the wall). Whoever played the piano here (Nicholson?) did such a great job of expressing that repression, that avoidance of emotion while at the same time losing the battle. From a musical point of view, this scene is absolutely fantastic.

In Boston there are many music schools. They're really quite wonderful. Around Boston Symphony Hall there are FOUR of them . . . (New England Conservatory, Northeastern University, Berkley School of Music, Boston Conservatory, and of course . . . Boston Symphony Orchestra). I would attend recitals and other offerings quite often. Just loved the heck out of it. I was homeless there (even in Boston winters). One evening during a piano recital (a Korean girl it think) I stayed in the back row and looked at a newspaper while listening. I can multi-task. A female in the row in front of me acted as though I was sin because of my looking at a paper. I've seen them with score books following along with a performance . . . but a man sleeping in snow could not seek an avenue out because their perfect serenity would be disturbed. Woman, do you know your name? Do you know who provides the heat for your auditorium and the black door man telling me to "Feed your head."?

If you want to recreate this I suggest using a slight vibrato effect, slightly degrading the quality and adding a vinyl scratch sound quietly in the background

I know this is 5 months late, but from a writer’s perspective, it’s about talking about something, in this case a relationship, without talking about it. Bobby has been hitting on Catherine since he got to the house, and she sees it as a more romanticized idea of wanting a real relationship, while he sees it at this point as more casual. When talking about inner feeling, they might literally be talking about the piano, but dig deeper and she takes it as “Bobby has no inner feeling for me” and storms off. Bobby, on the other hand, was being honest for once in his life, but it backfires on him. That’s just my take, I find the script brilliant.

+Phoenix Zappa It's an analog sound tape artifact caused by inconstant drive speed.

Thanks. I wonder why they put that in the film

+Phoenix Zappa It's definitely a piano that didn't get properly tuned for a while, or at least inconsistently, like once every 2 years instead of twice a year. This is definitely not just a side effect of drive speed of an analog tape. And yes, I am a classically trained pianist, but besides I also have a recording studio, which has an old tape recorder amongst many other things.

Helena081107 Thanks Helena. Can I ask, do you make any money from your recording studio? I would like to find some way that I can pursue music without being in poverty

+Phoenix Zappa pfff, what exactly is it you want to do ? there are so many genres, so many instruments, so many different places to perform... But people don't wanna pay a lot for music nowadays, I can assure you that. In my case, I started out with the classical training, and switched to electronical music 20 years ago (but never stopped playing piano), I slowly built my studio, but it has and always will be aimed for me to make my own music in, it's a "home-studio", but one with a pricetag that could have gotten me 3 cars (if of course you don't buy expensive cars), especially if you count in my piano (which is on a different floor). I recently went to Trésor, where a friend and occasional producer-partner was top of the bill that night. We're talking one of the most famous techno clubs ever, and they didn't even get enough money to pay for all the artists. So yeah, that gives an idea... 20 years ago, almost no one was doing this, and gear costed tons and couldn't do 20% of what it can do today. Nowadays everyone is doing it, and gear is very cheap and can do TONS of things. Problem is a LOT of people nowadays think there is big money to be made in music, while it's exactly the opposite. I personally don't care that much, I have always been all about music. My mother claims I started playing piano when I was 4. Obviously I don't remember that, but yeah, I do remember spending 80% of my disposable income on music, and it's been like that all my life. Back in the days where no one was a DJ, I became a DJ for a decade or so, just because I had the biggest music collection. I started making music because I got frustrated with just playing sheetmusic as a classic pianist. It all evolved naturally for me. BUT : I know for a fact that IF I would like to make music my job, I would have to give up all my freedom, and start giving into commercial demand instead of just do what I like doing, and I don't feel like doing that. My advice : make music your hobby (or better : passion) or at the most a part-time job, otherwise you're gonna be majorly disappointed and even more poor :)

Isn't this the film with the famous custard pie fight? I think so. I'd love to see that uploaded (or the car chase).

Chopin chose this for his own funeral piece ... I think ?

You're right, also Mozart's Requiem and Chopin's Sonata in B-flat with a famous Marche funèbre.

how hard can it be to get a 3 word title correct ? It's "five easy pieces" ffs...

Simple, easy...It's pretty much the same. No need to get so mad.

+MLGNinja Studios So mad ? Laziness, especially intellectual laziness is just irritating. Like watching Dexter season 2 and that FBI detective saying "Show-pin" when he's talking about Chopin... That's just utterly stupid. If I was passionate about some composer, I'd sure as fuck make sure I'd be able to pronounce it's name properly. So someone who posts a clip from a film he obviously likes, should know better than to even get the title of the film wrong if it's only 3 simple words... :v

+Helena081107 I had bad times when creating and uploading this clip. I lost someone I cared about and this movie touched me, helped to move forward. In this emotional roller coaster I must have mistaken the title.. I'm sorry I offended you so deeply by all this. Now I feel utterly stupid.

+Bartosz Pakulski man, you didn't offend me. It takes a lot more than that to "offend me". :) Donald Trump rather comes close, for example, but it makes me cringe more when I see how many people are foolish enough to believe in a guy like that than the man himself. haha :) At least you just admitted the mistake, give an explanation, and you CHANGED the title. so THANK YOU for that ! :)) I lost my favourite sister 4,5 years ago, she was barely 37. I know it sounds like a total cliché, and I didn't believe it at first : but time does make it more bareable. It doesn't change the loss, but you learn to deal better with it. Take care :)

Yeah, I guess I know what you're talking about. But I've been on the internet for long enough, and I see stupid mistakes all over the place, even with things as simple as there, they're and their, or extremely simple words being misspelled...honestly I don't care anymore. It is pretty cringy when people mispronounce or misspell things, but you've just got to deal with it. :|
