All of them! 😁

[@Alix777.]

The first one :)

@@Alix777. I decided to make tutorials about all of them! The next one will be Nr.6. :)

@@Antune Great ! Looking forward to them, even if I don't play them It's always interesting to watch your tutos !

[@Richard_Simoes_Piano]

I love your classes and your channel, I really like the way you teach, in my opinion you are the best piano channel on youtube.

[@Antune]

Wow, thank you!

[@martinritucci4219]

Loved the whole thing, from beginning to end. I love the clarity with which you explain every single detail. I hadn't played this prelude in a long time until right after I paid attention to your indications. I guess I've been kinda lazy for a long time now with regard to playing the piano. In any case, it's wonderful to find people like you who can explain things well and play really well, too. Chapeau!

[@Rick-k6b]

I've never been so amazed by any piano player teacher before and More So much great information ,Hes truly Great.

[@weisslin]

Thank you so much for sharing this lesson. It indeed helps a lot to practice such a beautiful piece! BTW, really enjoy the sound of Shigeru Kawai.

Merci, cela m'aide pour déchiffrer ce magnifique prélude 👍🙏

[@bgaylor873]

What a perfect walk thru for my skill level and music reading. Thank you so much my friend 🙏🏻

Je pourrais passer des heures à entendre le timbre de votre voix et à vous écouter jouer. 😍💙🤍❤️

[@PianoDawg1620]

Amazing! You are really good at teaching. I would really like to see Debussy's Arabesque No.1

[@Antune]

Thank you! Arabesque no.1 is on my to-do list!

[@ahhhsothisishowyouchangean162]

@@Antunestill waiting on it… but take as much time to maintain the high quality. Really appreciate the tutorials and will learn arabesque once you post your tutorial!! Thank you so much for all the effort and your channel is truly a hidden gem ❤

Nice compliment! Music is my soul! Thank you for inspiring me :)

[@suryahitam3588]

Thank-you for sharing your insights into this wonderful piece.

Complimenti e grazie molte per questo splendido tutorial di un brano che adoro di Chopin

[@becain]

I am 70 years old and I always love Chopin music. I still practise here and there because my vision is getting worse (i.e 1 eye left after the operation) but this does not stop me playing piano. :)

[@Antune]

So nice to hear nothing stops you from playing piano!

[@GFY-r6l]

I lost my piano. Watching your piano lessons such as this one where you also teach hand position is the only thing that helps me keep the dream of one day being able to afford a home and piano. Thank you my friend

[@Antune]

I hope you can have both sooner than you think!

[@GFY-r6l]

@@Antune very kind of you to reply. When feeling despondent, your message makes me know I am not alone.

# 1!!! a really great tutorial,thank you. I learned this piece several years ago but the middle part is to hard to manage with small hands

Another beautiful piece .

[@tonycostello8729]

Hey, im kinda new to sheet music I was wondering why you played B at the last note when it’s marked as a C There’s is no flat on it? 3:38

[@Antune]

@@tonycostello8729 The last note is C flat, which is equivalent to B.

[@goldie5788]

this is amazing storytelling ❤ Thank you so much

[@Antune]

Glad you think so! Many thanks.

[@goldie5788]

@@Antune your soul is beautiful 🎼❤️

[@TheChazz1225]

6:55 with the long chord starting at D flat on the left and F natural on the right, I would play the F octave with my right and the left played up to the B Natural. Is the way you've played it your choice or more as to how it's written?

[@Antune]

I played how Chopin wrote it, but you can, of course, take it as an octave with the right hand. Just make sure to keep the upper F brighter so you can distinguish both F as melody and accompaniment layer. Good luck!

[@Liduniya]

Glad I found you. Nice repertoire! Subscribed ❤️

[@Antune]

Thank you!

[@good6894]

Thank you for doing this! I really really appreciate it. :)

[@nicolasloiacono1345]

Hello! after all, thanks a lot for the beautiful playing and tips you give us, can you do Ballade in Gm de Chopin? thanks!

[@Antune]

It's on my to-do list. Thanks!

Do you ever talk about harmony and the progressions there in?

This is easily my favorite page as I continue to learn. Do you have a patreon or somewhere to accept donations?

Happy to hear you are learning! I don't have a Patreon, but if you wish, you can donate by buying me a coffee through the description link. All the best!

[@austinong1972]

hey great video, although I have a question; from the sheet music how can i tell which note is pressed by the left or right hand? You score says 1, but both left and right thumbs are labelled 1, thanks in advance!

[@Antune]

@@austinong1972 Could you please tell me which measure you are talking about?

[@austinong1972]

@@Antune The notes in measure 3 and 4 :)

[@sujathaalu5960]

Thanks.A greatteacher

[@becain]

Hi Antune, Thank you for playing this wonderful piece! However, your camera keeps moving around and it is hard for the eyes to concentrate on your fingering when playing. Hope that you will reload it again when time permitted. Thanks again.

[@Antune]

Thank you! There are many pieces I wish I could redo. Hopefully, I have improved the camera motion in my never videos. All the best!

[@RoFinity]

Prelude nº 24, please?...I'm starting to study it. thank you

[@brigittebeche4117]

How do’yoy manager with small hands?

[@goldie5788]

Honestly, I would love it if you tell us who you are; How old are you? how did you start playing? what you like to do do? maybe about your favorite food or video game? how many kids you have?... we spend so much time learning from your soul you and we barely know you... only if you don't mind and you feel comfortable share that with us. whatever you decide, we love you 😊

[@walterhenderson730]

Hello, very helpful. What application do you use to color your notes? I’ve downloaded your score with fingering and am going back and annotating according to your tutorial.

[@Antune]

Thank you! I use Sibelius. I hope the fingerings help, good luck!

[@walterhenderson730]

@@Antune Hello, I'll buy you a few cups of coffee if you could share the color-coded version of your transcription. I've tried to do it myself on Sibelius, but have made a royal mess (according to my piano teacher). Seriously, is that item for sale?

[@Antune]

@@walterhenderson730 I am afraid I don’t have such a file. I’ve used it as video material and never had it as sheet music. Otherwise, I won’t mind sharing it, of course. Also, I don’t keep the files on my computer after publishing a video. I can’t help, sorry!

[@walterhenderson730]

@@Antune No problem, I understand. However, you have provided us with a wonderful idea... so simple, yet brilliant. We've started marking up our sheet music (as you've done in your tutorial). It really helps with learning a piece, practice, and certainly visualizing the different voices, which is challenging for most students. My piano teacher and her colleagues LOVE it! I think you've caught on to something! Thanks all the same (for the inspiration)! Have you done a tutorial on Johannes Brahms/ Intermezzo Opus 118 nr 2, yet. If not, hopefully we'll be able to see you take on it one day!

[@dalexis21]

In bar three, I notice a lot of players (and scores) play two notes with the right hand, whereas you use the left thumb (except for note three). Can you talk about this? I'm trying to decide which way to play it generally, it seems you like to isolate the melody to the right hand as much as possible - which also seems to be how Chopin wrote it?

[@Antune]

The only reason I use the left thumb is to have a more satisfying legato. Playing both intervals with the right hand will sound less connected because the thumb is used repeatedly.

[@dalexis21]

@@Antune that makes sense - thanks for your thoughts!

[@Papa_Reecio]

Great tutorial, thank you! your downloadable sheet music is opus 25 and not raindrops :)
