Complimenti.. grazie per la tua eccellente spiegazione, è già un mese che lo sto studiando, ora la so a memoria e posso dedicarmi alle sfumature ai colori come hai descritto perfettamente tu.. grazie ancora.😊Beppe

[@jorgelavin]

very helpful an clear, thank you. I would just recomend a tripod for the camera above the keys . The movement is a little bit distracting.

[@vivyrox7202]

This really helped me organize this piece

[@Antune]

Happy to hear that. Good luck!

[@vivyrox7202]

Antune thanks I am just starting it and it seemed like a nightmare until I watched your video 😊

[@andy.miroirs]

Can you do a video about Bach's three part invetion? Thank you very much for this video

[@Leo_59brm]

Bruh…I play this tommorow at school and must learn the whole last page lol

[@howtouploadinfullquality3638]

How long would this take to learn for someone who is just starting w/piano?

[@lawrencetaylor4101]

Merci. I liked your one hand playing, but when you played hands together you played at such a tempo that it was a bit intimidating for a beginner.

[@wombat5628]

How to practice the coordination of the two hands? That's the hardest part for me as they have different beats. Which level A, B, C do you classify this one?

[@Antune]

Make sure to master it with hands separate first. It is very crucial for coordination. Also, it would help if you took it very slow when playing with both hands and gradually increase the speed. In my experience, this pieces would be level A.

[@wombat5628]

@@Antune Thank you! (shaking my head 😂)

[@GP-sj6ew]

how do you play the trills

[@Antune]

I don’t have specific suggestion for the trills. I think you can implement them however you like. Maybe it would be useful to practice without trills for sometime, until you feel comfortable playing with both hands. It will be easier to implement them later on. Good luck

[@user-vr4qm4cl2k]

Great video what is the trmpo

[@Antune]

Music nerd Hi, you can choose for any tempo. I like playing it not too fast.

[@Gatsbi]

Beginner here. Are you playing all 8th note with with staccato? Or is it just accent?

[@Antune]

I play them non-legato and slightly emphasize the ones on the beats.

[@1485edgewood]

If you love bach listen to amazing podcast 30 Bach.

[@alessandroc.4543]

I started learning this 2 weeks ago, and I can make all the notes "right". But it still sounds really ugly. I'm not able to make it sound one beautiful thing (like you do), so frustrating... I'll try studying it with separate hand to build character in each voice.

[@user-um7or2ly3p]

Hello!, How are you, it's ok now?

[@alessandroc.4543]

@@user-um7or2ly3p Yes, the sound got really better after few days from when I wrote this comment. Two weeks later, I was perfectly satisfied with the piece. The problems were all mental, I struggled to find the style I wanted to portrait.

[@user-um7or2ly3p]

@alessandroc.4543 Excellent! I started learning Invention n1 too, and got a little stuck on the 3-4 bars until I broke it all down into musical phrases and emphasized the motives and then it got much better result.

[@dianjiao5942]

Your video is very helpful, clear and detailed, but the articulation mark in 18th century is different from which in nowadays, I’m not sure it could be played like that.

[@Antune]

Thank you for the comment, glad to hear it was helpful! To be honest, I am not an expert on baroque articulation. I prefer to feel free the way I want to implement the ornamentation and the interpretation in general.

[@lovezification]

but the instrument is different to that of 18th century.

[@robinnelsonwicks4062]

Love in content in the tutorial but would like both hands together at that single hand tempo before you show us what a professional sounds like😊Also can the camera not move. I feel seasick.

[@Antune]

This is one of the first videos I've made. I hope you like the newer tutorials more! :)

I have a question, are you Rachmaninoff? Your hands are really big!
