You teaching us the musical ideas as well as very important and specific technical solutions! You are such a wonderful teacher!! Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and love for music with us!! And I totally laugh out load about the “prayer” section when you mention it…. It’s sooooooooo true!!! We all need to pray to God to help us with the coda section!!! Ha ha ha ha ha. Thank you again!!

Thank you for this great op. 52 tutorial series. I look forward to hearing your advice on the coda in the next video!

Just played the section you described here. Great. There are so many nuances in the Canon and the polyrhythmic added "gondola" measures, as you call them. I am out of breath, so to speak, and the Ocean etude certainly is a good preparation for the rough waters that were coming. I could enjoy resting many more times listening to details about many more phrases. All is pushing now towards the famous Coda after the waters settled to become the deep quiet ocean that concluded your lesson. The storm is just about to break out. But... only next week... )))

Just curious Dr Wang, why are the intervals between Part 'N' English and Chinese version are much much longer than the one between Part 'N' Chinese version and Part 'N+1' English version?
