[@Antune]

What should be the next from Debussy?

[@liellavi5722]

arabesque no.1

[@hom666]

L'isle Joyeuse

[@fionanogawa1730]

Ooh how about Passepied from the Bergamasque Suite?

[@victorpongraz422]

La Reverie

[@Baqir_B2]

Arabesque No.1 please

[@4c00h]

Lang Lang and all those great pianists that give masterclasses can only wish they could explain the essence of each piece in a very simple logical way to understand the piece like you do. Thank you!

[@DomskiPlays]

This video is insanely underrated and I hope you continue!

[@davidmartin123]

This is a great tutorial and is a correct way to play Clair De Lune as written.

[@tinayang8531]

This is a great tutorial video. Your interpretation has helped me a ton when I self-learned to play this piece. I’m looking forward to more tutorial videos from you and thank you!

[@Antune]

I am happy to hear, many thanks!

[@pravin3303]

I've been working on this piece for 2 weeks now and this will definitely help me. Thank you!

[@Antune]

Good to hear! Good luck with practicing!

[@coppas2643]

Out of all the videos I have watched while learning this song yours is by far and away the best in terms of structure. Having a pedal cam has been incredibly helpful through many sections of this as a beginner. Big thanks for your content!

[@UKMyron]

jesus what a player!!! and how articulate with the explanation. Amazing. Your hands look almost superhuman the way they work and move

[@AL-nf7be]

Thank you for incoperation of the view of pedal, not other video has done. Pedaling is so important.

[@RobinDaelman]

Very nice tutorial. The best explanation amongst all others. Keep publishing these tutorials as long you can please. We do appreciate a lot the nergy and time you spent on these! Best

[@mariasolidum1779]

I do heartily enjoy your tutorial video .because you explain educationally

[@martinposavec5255]

absolutely love the sound of your piano!

[@luctorres9161]

Your piano is a shigeru kawai isn't it ? SK?

[@sarmadpiano]

Thank you so much for the tutorial and the efforts of putting a camera on your head position. Excellent interpretation and playing.

[@TheApril1228]

I can say that you, Mr. don’t try to get more followers or attention to become the biggest page here. Your magic is fare explanation of what actually notes are and how to read them carefully and beautifully. Thank you ❤

[@kiara4345]

Now I am obsessed with this channel. It is so chill, engaging, informative and damn skilled teacher! I have been looking for tutorials like these, but I just guessed I would not just come across them and for free. I was, fortunately, wrong. I already commented it, but really good stuff, sir. Thank you very much.

[@Antune]

Glad you think so! Many thanks.

[@Nomen_Latinum]

This is very helpful! I'm relatively new to the piano, but I have played this piece on classical guitar before (arranged by James Edwards). It's a delight, and I'm sure this video will help improve my interpretation of both versions.

[@danwolfe9087]

Wow. THANK YOU. Speechless. I begin my study tomorrow.

[@fionanogawa1730]

Thank you for a wonderful lesson - really valuable and inspiring technical, analytical appreciation of the piece

[@Antune]

Glad to hear you enjoyed the video. Many thanks!

[@PatrizioDelliGatti]

Sir, your work is amazing. Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us. Greetings from Italy

[@Antune]

Happy to hear. Many thanks!

[@mexico2024-y7x]

Great! Just finished this piece some weeks ago, with 7 months of piano experience, self-thaught. This video will help the to master this piece. Maybe can you make a video on Arabesque No.1? Thanks 😊

[@Antune]

I hope it helps you! Arabesque No.1 is on my to-do list. Good luck! :)

[@luck-dono5205]

thank you for the pedalling tips!!

[@kaimanli4612]

Excellent tutorial, thank you.

[@family4325]

Hi! Quick question, do you use the soft pedal from the beginning all the way throughout the tempo rubato until un poco mosso?

[@thewordbtrue2461]

big 👍🏼for showing peddling. its a key function. for carrying the tender sound. I wish more on the use of when how to use peddles. I'm self taught , 71

[@PianoDawg1620]

Absolutely beautiful! Thank you so much!

[@Antune]

Many thanks!

[@The52Hz]

Wow I'm looking forward to playing this piece, that tutorial seems so useful, thank you!

[@Antune]

Thank you, enjoy playing it!

[@LiquidTurbo]

This is an incredible video. I was pushing all the chords with the same pressure (you can see in my KZbin video) and now I realize what I need to do to get more melody out of highlighting the right notes. Thank you!!

[@antoinezanni2098]

Many thanks for this masterclass !! Help me a lot. Its the 4th piece you covered that i'm playing

[@Antune]

Happy to help! Good luck :)

[@AcousticBruce]

Unbelievable!!!! Wow! This is so helpful!

[@Antune]

Happy to hear!

[@fantasticyun]

thank you so much for your tutorials. they help a lot !

[@bobsteiner9209]

Your videos are superb. It's hard to imagine a better presentation for beginners or even for intermediate students. As to the final performances, students might go to KZbin and check out some of the world's greatest pianists. They play with more flexibility, nuance, and color than we find here. But they tend to be older, and for pianists, freedom often seems to develop with age. There is also the matter of the recording quality. Pianos are hard to record, and I'm not sure that the recording here does the performance justice. Still, a very fine tutorial.

[@marcelalezcanomusic]

Gracias de corazón profe!

[@cindywei5083]

Thanks for the notes with fingerings, it made it possible to play bar 41& 42 legato! :-)

[@Antune]

Happy to hear! Good luck with practicing :)

[@damndons]

How to play how to play debussy by Claire die lune

[@rothschildianum]

I wish the color full notes are available. It helps the learning process.

[@Antune]

I haven't thought of that, but actually, it is something to consider for the future. Thank you for the feedback and idea!

[@linusaagaard6664]

First❤️❤️❤️excited to watch this:)))

[@Antune]

Enjoy! :)

[@Lkwong62]

May I know what music software you used in your video? Thanks

[@philedwards4392]

I have practiced Claire de Lune for years trying to figure out how pianists are able to bring out the melody in the middle part without making the last note of the accompanying arpeggio part of the melody. It looks like you have the same problem as well.

[@665neighbourofdbeast]

At 13:24, the last arpeggio of the middle section, did you reach Ab with your pinky and C with your thumb, simultaneously? Oof, I can’t do that..

[@Antune]

I am not playing it simultaneously but being able to reach this interval helps me to do it with less effort. You can do it with a quick wrist rotation ➡️ Good luck!

[@erikfauser2418]

You should do un sospiro by liszt.

[@Taichistretchingspace3479]

Is there a music sheet. Can I print this simplified but beautiful music..thank you from NZ

[@Antune]

You can find the sheet music in the description of the video. Enjoy, and all the best!

[@teddykoo6153]

Can you do a tutorial on the Beethoven moonlight 1st movement? It’s hard to make it sound good.

[@MVRZ167]

16:32. 15:23

[@aylawartecker2234]

❤🙏

[@GoatCat_]

Do you need to connect the slurs even with the pedal?

[@Antune]

Absolutely! Because connecting them with fingers is a different attitude and gives a more connected feeling with or without the pedal, as it affects the way you press the keys.

[@GoatCat_]

@@Antune Thx for the help. I’m surprise you responded this fast!

[@AvioInsane]

At 11:39, how are the low notes sustained although you lift your foot off the sustain pedal?

[@Antune]

The pedal is changed halfway so the low notes can be partly sustained.

[@munzutai]

Do you keep the soften pedal during the whole piece?

[@Antune]

Not the whole piece! :)

[@munzutai]

@@Antune Could you tell me which parts you use it for?

[@EmanM45]

What he said

[@vai-may]

türk müsün abi

[@the-bu3lb]

Yes but for someone that has never played your talking a different language. It’s impossible for them to play this your way.

[@makssobo]

Well, if you've never played the piano, do not start learning this piece. It is pretty difficult. You can start to learn it when you'll be able to understand everything that says..

[@gatatl]

I enjoy your content but there is so much movement of the camera that it ruins the experience….please invest in a tripod or a camera setup that get rid of the nauseating movement.

[@munzutai]

I disagree. He already has a tripod and uses it for other shots. Attaching the camera to himself gives me a sense of what he's looking at and how he's moving his body to the music. I personally like it and don't find it nauseating but I understand if you do.
