 Fantaisie impromptu
June 24, 2010, 02:40:05 PM by kickoutofyou

Hi everyone! I have been playing piano for about 4-5 years and have played in many different genres(Mozart sonata's, ragtime, beethoven, etc.) and I am now in the middle of learning Clair de lune. I am asking that after I learn Clair de lune, do you think its a good idea to start learning Fantaisie impromptu. I know i am not learning this for the wrong reasons because I am equally excited to learn the very beautiful slower part as well as the show offy faster part of the song. I would really like the opinion of an experienced piano player(or just anyone), and would not get discouraged if the answer is no.

4 on 3 (in Fantasie Impromptu)

This is my first post! 
So yes, I did find this forum by searching "Fantasie Impromptu" on Google and reading the breadboy thread. And I did search up FI like you guys say to do in all the other FI threads. So I hope that people aren't annoyed with yet another FI thread, and that I haven't made an embarrassing oversight, my question already answered elsewhere.
I just started learning FI (I hope not for the wrong reasons), and the polyrhythm thing is just about killing me. Most of the internet suggestions I've read fall into one of the following two categories:
1) Hands Together:
First work out the 4 on 3 sequence in twelfths. Practice tapping the rhythm, tapping 3 times with your left hand for every 4 taps of the right hand. Then start slowly on the piano. Use a metronome if necessary. Get faster and faster slowly, until you reach the desired speed. This process is necessary so that you play accurately.
2) Hands Independently:
Practice each hand separately until you can play each part very fluently. Then just play them at the same time!
This is all nice,... except for the fact that the two are BLATANT CONTRADICTIONS  I am very afraid of learning the entire piece too quickly, realizing it is super-sloppy, and not being able to correct bad habits. This suggests I follow (1). At the same time I can hardly imagine "feeling" the twelfth rhythm at high speeds. Besides this is hardly how the music is structured. And plus it seems very difficult to speed up. Even when I try to just go up a few bpm it just degenerates into... Someone please clear this up.
Much of the advice also says that after a bit it will just "click," and you will magically be able to play it. I can slowly play some of the measures with both hands, but it's nothing like a magical feeling of accomplishment. It's more like balancing a stick on the end of your nose... I feel like it's all going to come apart any millisecond, and I'm not even sure if I have it right---the moment I try to listen to one hand to see if it's even, the other hand forgets what it's supposed to do.
Am I panicking too early?

Hello!
I'm new to to forum, but I've been walking around with a question for a while maybe theres someone around here to help me.
For the past 2 months ive been working on the fantasie impromptu by chopin, wich is a hard peace for me and probably a bit to hard, but i can play it fairly well now.
But for some reason i cant get it to sound the way i want it to in the first and the last movenent, and I KNOW it has to to with my pedaling. I just dont know how to do it right, so i was wondering if anyone could give me any tips. (since i dont take lessons since about 7 years, I will when i got the money)
Pls dont shoot me for playing pieces out of my league, im just having fun on the piano and i had lessons so im not a beginner.
Thank you in advance and kind regards,
Jacob

Fantasie Impromptu op. 66

Hello Everyone
I just began learning Chopins Fantasie Impromptu op. 66, today. This is of course a big project.
Playing each hand alone goes easy, but I can already now see that I have a problem with putting it together. I can't read out of the sheet music if I'm suppose to play a note on the right hand at the same time with the left, or if they are a little staggered. You know what I mean?
Naturally I wan't it to sound perfect, so can anyone tell me if it makes much difference in the big picture?
Any comments or experienced thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks-

Left hand in Chopin Fantasie Impromptu
August 23, 2009, 07:37:44 PM by mariapap

Hello,
I have a difficulty in playing Fantasie Impromptu that I'd like to share. I am currently working on this piece trying to improve my technique at the same time, as I had a bad teacher in the past who left me some "scars"..(pretty bad technique). I don't have a problem playing the two hands together, but I can't decide on which fingerings to use for the left-hand-triplets that are repeated and are to be found for instance in the 4th bar. I have found it online as being 5-3-2-1-2-3, but my teacher says that it would be better to use 5-3-1-2-1-3. What would you advise me on this? Should the left hand playing be facilitated by the movement of the elbow? I think I've seen that on some videos.
I would appreciate your advice on that.
Thank you
