[@krystalchen4671]

Congratulations! Beautifully played. I scored 98 out of 100 in my Trinity Grade 8 last month.

[@sarawutniyom9340]

The last piece is very beautiful. Great piece and great performance 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Your performance is very well voiced and articulated! You play very well, I'm sure you practiced many hours to achieve this level!

I am teacher, my students play scales more faster!

[@donkcy5176]

@ Sveta Eva firstly it doesn’t matter how fast you play ur scales there is a set bpm that you will have to play at and he is probably playing it completely right also the grammar just isn’t professional enough for a music teacher now don’t get me wrong you could be an incredible teacher with bad grammar but seriously check what you have written before you write it. PS this was pretty unnecessary but it just bugged me also I’m not a music teacher so if I'm wrong then please correct me

Superb, great performance

In 1967 I did grade 5 Trinity COM and grade 4 ABRSM exams in Palayamkottai Tamil Nadu India . The latter was definitely tougher grade wise .

Same dude. I was so stressed because of that.

[@leilar2643]

@@Will-ht2ny according to the book at the last page, it says "Please note that the recommended speeds are a guide to what can be expected as each level" and personally? the exam doesn't require you to open the metronome while playing, which means it wouldn't be exactly 140 bpm anyways so there are quite a bit of wiggle room for the bpm

[@kangchenjunga591]

Trinity exam standards have gone down … they are more into profit making than recognising talent 😢 In my 35 years’ experience asa piano teacher i would deem this as a good, although not an excellent, performance. Ok , the notes are mostly 💯 accurate but at this level the performance needs more feeling and flair.

Bro... He just played the juiciest most beautiful melodies and you out here talking straight doo doo

[@courtly5982]

@@testiculartyrant777 I should also say most kids can memorize this if you force them to play it enough, but they won’t be able understand music theory or improvise despite being grade 8

Aiyo, I think you still keep a grudge against yr examiners! What is your highest marks?

[@wassupbros4629]

yeah the kid got all his notes rights but the dynamics and especially the trill were not quite distinction standard the song also doesnt feel like its played by a human and instead one of those sample piano pieces you get on an electric piano

[@shimyy5658]

I have no idea what this test is but man you sound pretty well articulated and in general you give such a SECURITY aura when playing! Keep it going!

You can play 5 songs or 3 songs, 3 exercises, scales and arpeggios. I’m studying for trinity and rockschool grade 8 at the same time and I’m doing like him for trinity, and 5 songs (3 of them are the trinity ones) for rockschool.

But memorising isn't good untill you get everything correct.A 10/10.

[@zaincarrimjee3142]

Fabulous exam

[@fionasampson2091]

Can't belive that this is grade 8. As a teacher of the piano for 35 + years who uses the ABRSM EXAM system rather than trinity l think this demonstrates the vast difference between the 2 exam standards. If Trinity ever want to be recognised as a realistic alternative to ABRSM they really need yo raise their standard of repertoire and requirements.

[@userhsu]

Agreed, I remember how my scales book is so thick, the 3rd 6th aparts, the appregios in different inversions, the aural listening, and one of my Haydn piece for so difficult, how is this grade 8 standard… but anyway, let’s kit blame the performer itself but the exam board

[@myhumbleopinion1036]

Trinity has got easier these past few years. The pieces used to be a more challenging than the other exams . But such is life.

[@userhsu]

@@myhumbleopinion1036 the pieces were never more difficult than ABRSM, that's my humble opinion, just imagine playing your own comp for grades 1-6

[@myhumbleopinion1036]

I once asked a teacher who has been teaching for about a 'million years' which exam is the hardest since she teaches both ABRSM and Trinity. At the time she said Trinity this was about 2006. When Trinity became Trinity Guildhall she pointed out to me that it got watered down just by looking at the exam pieces. And I myself even did a side by side comparison of older material with newer ones and the newer stuff paled in comparison. I remember when all the supporting tests were compulsory at exams no matter the level you were at. Now it's very different you can pick and choose what to do which really robs u of a well rounded exam and examiner's critique. It's a shame because I always thought Trinity pieces though less to choose from were always more flexible with the outlook.

[@NeutrinoAudio]

What a load of laughable hogwash, some Trinity grade 8 pieces are on the dipABRSM/ARSM repertoire lists, the Scarlatti is grade 8 according to Henle. Music conservatories and universities consider Trinity to be equivalent.

[@xavier9062]

Which ones are the easiest pieces to play?

They are all about the same difficulty, but they are hard in different ways. If you are choosing your pieces just choose the ones you like.
