xx Chopin's etude op. 25 no. 11
April 02, 2010, 06:04:52 AM by ponken

I am starting to practise this piece. It's maybe a little too difficult for me but I love it too much to not attemp it. I would like some adviced on what's important to think of in this piece and how I best practise. I am also interested in knowing what fingering others use in the bar 15. Thank you in advance!

xx A VERY VERY VERY big problem.
August 23, 2009, 11:44:10 AM by loonbohol

Sorry for hiding in shame.

I have a problem , now that I cannot theoretically play Chopin Etude (Winter Wind).

I was practicing it for almost 6 months and I am almost 3/4 of the whole piece.
The trip to China interrupted my learning.
As I came back,I realized that I cannot do it anymore.
Why does it have to be that way?

I must select a new piece.
I must select a piece that I will perform at a conservatory so that I can be admitted.

I have selected Waltz Op.42 by Chopin.
And when I watched videos of it. There are many ways to play it.

Here is Wen-yu-shen's version of the piece
(refer to this video <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kql_ztVUjOA" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kql_ztVUjOA</a>

A slower version is <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RHNBZ8jP5Q8" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RHNBZ8jP5Q8</a>

but one thing is certain, there is only one way to play it.


Question 1:Will I ever be admitted to a University conservatory if this is what I am going to perform?
Question 2:What is the rated difficulty of this waltz?
Question 3:I have to choose another piece to perform,Chose a piece that sounds difficult but easy  "Are there easy pieces camouflaged as difficult.

This is code RED.   SERIOUSLY.

By the way, I am on the 8th page already.
I will send a video A.S.A.P since I do not think my playing is correct.

xx Winter wind..... Impossible + Frederick Chopin competition
December 07, 2008, 04:57:39 AM by loonbohol

As I type this letters in the forum...
My hands seems to be lifted to the air...

We are talking about winter wind etude or Chopin Etude Op.25 no.11
It is very complicated and it is hurting my fingers ...
But I have to force myself... I wan't to be Franz Liszt..
I am crazy already!

I have hurt my hands more than ten times and my hands seems to be bruised right now...
It is hurting my hands ... Please feel sympathy...

Forget the drama.

You see I am in the middle of the winter wind etude and in staff 37-40 but this is my question....?

You see the thing executed in the left hand is so tiring and I want you to recommend me a hand massage and pain reliever...

I just want to force myself from some not so very hard etude to the world's hardest etude..

I want to improve myself like Yundi Lee and Join the international piano competition
or you can give me some hard excercise..
And it seems that my piano skills are degrading.. It has been 3 months and a half and I am still at staff 37

Summary of Question:

1.) Need hand excercises for the left...

2.) Need pain reliever

3.) Is there a faster way to learn that Etude ( It's been three months)
     I am really slow

4.) The glissando's in the last staff of Winter wind etude is impossible
    How can it be done?

5.) After some 12 hour practice(once a week) my hand  cramps.
 Why other pianist don't ?

xx The Winterwind Scale
November 02, 2008, 02:18:47 AM by opus10no2

Which is the best fingering? and what kind of sound does each achieve?
(rh)
1231234 is standard

1234123 makes micro-accents on the E which may be more pleasing to the ear

4545345 makes it a fun exercise and showoff trick

1212123 or 1313123 may be more even

1234512345 through the whole thing is like zooming through a speedbump zone but can be the fastest of all

1234523 is awesome too, proving the thumb isn't the only way...try 2345234 too

Fun can be had with this.

xx Chopin Etude Op. 25/11 Winterwind (second take, at Mannes)
October 21, 2008, 08:06:33 PM by mkaykov

I recorded this today - here I am playing for a friend in a Mannes Practice room, on some crappy old "Steinway". I am absolutely relaxed here.

Tell me what you think, possibly it is an improvement..........

xx Chopin: Etude Op. 25/11 ("Winterwind")
October 14, 2008, 02:19:10 PM by mkaykov

My first attempt at this etude. I know there is no dynamic range in this performance, but I just began working on this with Mr. Rose, who can play it perfectly.

Tell me what you think.

xx Fingering of Chopin Etude Winter Wind Op.25 No 11
November 28, 2007, 05:23:59 PM by majax

Hello,

I want to begin to explore the study of Chopin Op 25 No 11 because I find it very beautiful, but also very difficult.

I does not take piano lessons, so I would like to know if the fingering of the partitions that I found on the Internet is the best.

I joined to my message the first descent of piece

What do you think of the fingering on the right hand on the first descent?

Is that the most used by most pianists, as in these videos?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T77OMdP6_ww
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kql_ztVUjOA
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eZ8rG8DFYAg



What fingering can you advise me for the whole of the descent?



I would like to apologize for my English because I am not English.

Thank you very much.

xx How hard is Chopin-Godowsky Op. 25 No. 11?
September 22, 2007, 12:46:46 PM by dnephi

I spoke with a friend of mine about different Chopin Etudes and he asserted that Op. 25 No. 11 was far more difficult and beneficial to his technique than Op. 10 No. 4 or 10 No. 5. 

This only works the right hand though, and for equal benefit, one would need to tackle the Godowsky study. 

How hard is it?

Regards,

Daniel  Grin

xx Winter wind, chopin's original fingering?
January 27, 2007, 09:23:24 PM by liszt-essence

Hi,

I'm going to learn winterwind, but wanted to make sure that the edition I have, uses chopins original fingering?

My question is regarding the fingering for the big descending melody, which starts right after the short soft intro.

I have Friedman's edition, which fingers it like:

5241 3251 4251 5241 5241 5242 etc


Is this how Chopin fingered it? If not, do you know which fingering he applied for this section? There's a special reason I want to know this, because I intend to play it using his fingering, so that I really get into the technique Chopin had in mind when he wrote this piece.  Thanks in Advance!

Dr. Robert J Keane, pianist
Australia

"I was in Poland the past summer to give 2 concerts. At the last minute they requested some Chopin, which I had not brought with me. So, I google-searched for classical downloads and found your site. I was able to print out excellent editions of the pieces I needed within minutes. To find the scores locally would have been inpossible as it was a smaller town, the nearest music store 45 minutes away."

"Piano Street has been a wonderful tool to me as both a pianist and a piano teacher. I can browse the collection for pieces I want to play and/or have my students play. The difficulty rating system that Piano Street uses enables me to search by difficulty level for pieces at my students' various playing levels. It is helpful that many of the scores include an audio clip of the piece being played. I have recommended to my advanced students that they also join Piano Street since getting sheet music from there is a much less expensive alternative to ordering and paying for the music.
