any piano players in the house??
    #22497295 - 11/08/15 06:39 PM (8 years, 2 months ago)

im trying to reorganize my day so i can have time for all my endeavors, been busy with other things that i view as a strategic priority as those things can develop quicker than others so ive only had time everyday to quickly maintain my endurance in piano, although even doing this has made me a lot better at playing what i know of certain pieces.

Im trying to make goals in my life, and im juggling a lot but i want to try to be able to play "la Campanella" by Franz Liszt fully by the end of 2016, hopefully sooner.

i can play the first 2 pages or so very well, not going to lie it took a year of just kinda bullshit practice to be able to accurately make the jumps on everything, im trying to play it at the speed and performance quality Valentina Lisitsa does and so far its going good, no where near lisitsa godlike but im getting better and better. Ive been reading online about a lot of piano students studying it end up giving up because they cant perform the jumps on the first two pages even. I gotta admit i thought i was going to have to give up it seemed out of my capability to do it accurately but damn after all this time of just doing it over and over my hands can do it easier and easier, and faastt too,

just have to keep it up,

Anyone else dabble in the keys?? :yesnod:



Heres the god of destruction Valentina Lisitsa forever slaying anyone that tries to play it

It's a great time to be a pianist because of the many tutorials and such on the net. I own a piano but I cannot play it very well unfortunately.

Hey mate good on you for playing :thumbup: I played for about 8 years before I hurt my left arm, dedication to practice was so difficult, I give you credit for practicing that much :thumbup:

I have always loved Lang Lang, great ambassador for the piano, have you seen him and Metallica perform?

did you hurt your left arm from playing?

i keep hearing that you can only play for four hours a day on high virtuoso without doing damage.
ive been sticking to that advice when i do serious learning.

and for liszt you can definitely feel terrible pain in your forearms.

I like this kinda stuff mixing pianos and electronic music (also Jon Hopkins). This guy had an audio visual tour looked like this that I wanted to attend but I'd also like to get a DVD version to play at the edge of my bed haha.

Have you tried to play any Rachmaninoff?

RSI is a bitch. Nah not from playing, from getting old lol. You are spot on though you shouldn't overdo it and my teachers were right, posture posture posture... Having a teacher look at how you hold your hands and sit was something that you could never teach yourself.

I was always told if it starts to hurt stop but if you can play 8 hours straight without hurting go for it!

I have an organ, jealous of you bastards who have a piano though. I still play with my right hand, surprising how quick I can read and play like that lol.


@SoloTrip I love that 'fusion'(?) stuff too, have never been to a show like that but would love to. I've been to a few Symphony Orchestra vs Looney Tunes but that wouldn't compare to something like that I think.

It's awesome you play the classics, lots of respect for that! I love to play pop / rock / top 40 (yeah I know right). I don't know who this is but I love this... (System of A Down cover)

i think you really need a strong base though of learned material to extract ideas and inspiration from and i dont think i know enough pieces yet to be able to do that effectively.
