Sometimes you get that lesson where you barely practiced and somehow played it good, hits different

[@randomperson2526]

Ikr, I intentionally put etudes on the back burner and don't look at them for like half a year and then come back to them

[@zord90x58]

And sometimes you get that lesson where you spent hours upon hours practicing and honing your technique, and yet, it still manages to sound like you are touching the piano for the first time in your life. Hits different, too, but not in a good way.

@@zord90x58 OMG IKR, i swear its every instrument. a few years back i actually played banjo. so anyways one day i had a lesson where i had practiced quite a bit but then literally could not play the song. then I DIDNT PRACTICE THE NEXT WEEK AND PLAYED IT PERFECT AT THE NEXT LESSON.

[@chrysanthemumsss]

This video has made me realize how good my current piano teacher is. He’s never rough on me and is very easygoing, I appreciate him a lot. My old piano teacher didnt really get me too engaged in the piano and make me learn the history about the pieces or the tempo and dynamics, and for that reason I think I would slack off more (its also worth noting I was younger then, so it might’ve been partly my fault-). I now enjoy the piano and music in general WAY more(often I’m very excited to have the lesson), I like playing more piano outside of practicing my homework, and it just goes to show how important teachers are. If you are never engaged, you’ll never play as well as you could be playing.

[@Makenza_]

pretty much describes my journey, except I stopped for a few years in between

Omg same thing happened to me! I got a new teacher and he is literally so good my previous teachers weren’t really good :(

[@nncc1485]

My piano teacher is overly easygoing and doesn't react even I don't practice AT ALL! She just doesn't care about students and never really concentrate on the lessons.

297 years and Mr. Mo has to tape his own moustache to keep it. What a man.

[@devrubic]

Mr. Mo played the piece before it was even composed. Seems like Chopin copied something! 🤭

[@supremetaco5349]

I see a lot of foreshadowing for chopin ballade no 1 to be the next performance. This video was so entertaining too! Piano teachers are intimidating 🤣

Bro, you described perfectly how my piano lessons are, but it motivates even more to practice and the success feels much better when the teacher agrees with your interpretation in the end.

[@r3dluv.u]

As someone who has a russian piano teacher, i see this very relatable

[@Chopin-Etudes-Cosplay]

"It was an ok first step...towards being ok". I'll have to use that line sometime :D

[@lawbnowercuj]

number 4 is accurate... my piano teacher will go on about how a specific note in the piece needs to be more emotional or like an orchestra and more like something or whatever, and i try my best to understand what exactly she wants but then she finally just told me to hold a specific note a bit longer and it all made sense.. idk why she didnt just say that the first time tho :(

[@sophiaodegbo-olukoya7324]

I agree

[@e.d.1642]

Because music is about intentions

[@art_in_ashes]

Music is essentially positive emotional damage.

Everyone watching this video that has ever played this piece knew EXACLY what number 5 was gonna be.

I haven't even in the 3rd page but I somehow got that

@heisentchopin's first ballade. The coda was CRAZY 😭

[@themagicducc2777]

felt level 3 especially with that section 😫 getting the opening perfect was definitely the hardest part to understand when i was cleaning the piece up for performance

[@ereiniongil-galad]

Then there's the lesson where you practice a lot at home and you think you've made a lot of progress, then you come to class and it all goes out the window...

[@rachmaninoff808]

With students being so busy and having distractions like video games, I’m just happy when they practice and can pay the correct notes with the correct rhythm. Baby steps.

[@Durminator]

i am just happy when they listen to me and not dance and roll on the flor or smth

"No practice, no video" That's great. That earned this video a like. Good thing I already practiced today so I'm going to watch another video.

This is SO relatable dude! My piano teacher is actually really easy going but I still feel this all the time. Level 4 is so good haha!

[@ethanrosner5091]

Such a relatable video! I used to have this teacher who taught me to do way too many hand movements when playing. A few years ago, when I moved, I kept having to fix my technique, such a pain

Haha… thanks for sharing, it was very entertaining and hilarious 🤣 Experienced all up to Level 4 on my violin lessons, currently the lessons are mixed from Level 1 - 4, I wonder if one day I can make my teacher proud 🤔🧐🤣

[@loveatthefirstplace7706]

He's making things sound and look too easy to play and at the same time He's so good

[@redshirt49]

I used to practice for 8 hours a day. Then I shattered my ulnar nerve, had to spend a year retraining my left hand to function somewhat normally and now can't play longer than 15 minutes before my hand inevitably cramps up very, VERY painfully! Ah, also two of my fingers are numb forever so I can't play as accurately or as fast or as well ever again. Go easy on the practice is what I'm saying.

[@StevenPJames-fl1un]

The trick is to spend less effort "stretching," and think instead about centering your wrist over the most comfortable position at any moment. The coda is certainly tricky, but it's a real trap for pianists who haven't mastered the kind of technique needed to play, say, op. 10 no. 1.
