Top Comments of this video!! :3
I'm always astounded by just how difficult the 1st movement of the "moonlight" sonata is. I don't think this is a beginner piece, like it's usually characterized.
Walid did a really good job, especially in front of a camera recording for youtube (!!), I'm not sure if I'd actually play any better than him in that scenario, but you can definetly feel that there is room to improve the interpretation. Keep at it friend, you're awesome <33
This piece is so bare and so simple, but it has a really intense atmosphere and is very emotional, which means there's A LOT the pianist needs to articulate with very few notes. Every single note is so important, and there are so many decisions to make about which should be emphasized and not, how the melody should flow, where to bring out the bass or the middle voice, where you want sustain or more textured playing, and so much more.. It really is a beast to conquer, in my opinion.

Thank you!!!

Just take a moment to admire how good this guy's playing is. Beautiful

Been playing for several years as a hobby mostly (primarily by ear) I struggled a lot with learning to read as anytime I recognized something the attention span for the sheets just vanished and my ear took over.
That's an issue for another day, however, the way you described the expansion of the chords into emotions/feelings was really well done, I'm going to experiment some and implement these into my playing more, thanks!

I play 4 instruments and I compose for handpan and my handpan teacher gave me a precious lesson
When I was composing my first piece I wanted to ask him for help but he gave me no help
You may ask why though?
It's because he told me it's your own piece if I give you any advice it wouldn't be your piece anymore cause I'd be having a part in it and after that I fixed the problem myself and the piece came out beautiful
I love my handpan teacher the best one around

Thank you so much! My composition Blossom starts off very simple. That's why I didn't bother adding inversions to the beginning. I wanted the melody to build as the song progressed. If you ever have time to listen to the rest off camera, you might see what I mean. I do think I am sitting too low. So, I will buy a new piano seat. I really appreciate your advice :)

That’s so interesting what you said about understanding why certain chords are being used and how that can help you emote in your playing!

Great idea to do this… gave me inspiration! Thanks 🎉

About 6 years ago, I decided (as a 31-year-old) to pick up piano. I never had the opportunity to learn any kind of instrument growing up, but the piano has always interested me, and I really enjoy listening to piano music. After 2 years of lessons, life got in the way and I took a pause from playing for the past 4 years.
I have been watching many YT pianists in the meantime however and it always remained something that I wanted to pick up. Finding your channel about 3 weeks ago was the final push I needed to use that most holy of traditions: New Years resolutions. As such, I have picked up my old books again and started from scratch, using the tips in your various videos to do it properly this time around. No 'run before you walk' learning of pieces just by memorizing the sequence of keys (which I did before): proper sight reading, understanding notes and music theory to a certain degree and just practise.
Have a great 2024!

You’ve become one of my favorite piano channels to watch. The editing is very smooth and you’re definitely underrated compared to what’s out there. Been playing for a month but will definitely send in a video a year from now if you’re still doing these critiques!

Om ... really enjoyed this-loved the interaction with the players & your comments on how to play/hand placement/seating position... Im such a novice, whilst learning (on centre keys) one tends to sit over these few keys.. no thought for being able to reach peripheral keys ! Thanks v much!
