Remembering the great Maurizio Pollini
Legendary pianist Maurizio Pollini defined modern piano playing through a combination of virtuosity of the highest degree, a complete sense of musical purpose and commitment that works in complete control of the virtuosity. His passing was announced by Milan’s La Scala opera house on March 23. Read more >>

that guy should be playing something more along the lines of fur elise, not pathetique 1st movement, especially at that tempo.  And that tempo is not fast, i think the 1st movement should be at LEAST that fast or else it sounds like you're just playing it cause you really want to play it, but youre not actually ready for it, if you know what i mean.  People talk about how easy pathetique is, but those same people play the first movement like it's the adagio cantabile.

There are many more, even some by hamelin and cziffra that are even nearly as good!

Yes, it's a pity too.

lol @ Kelly.  I suppose it's true though, if juggling is something else associated with mp3's or whether it's not, you can still gather the gist of the comment.  Although I have to say I disagree. There are some rather good piano videos on youtube, and even crappy bad ones with amateurs ruining songs (such as myself lol) often have their friends look at it who often comment how amazing it is, when blatently is isn't.  But at least they are hearing the music, all beit in a rather pityful manner.

TBH, it's precisely because there are some good pianists on there that I moaned about the quality of some of the videos.

Amateurs are neither here nor there. Any buffoon can laugh at a piece on there [or in the audition room here] and then point to a video of, or make a comparison with the playing of Cziffra, Horowitz or whoever else. As you say, they most probably aren't making the comparison themselves and it's a comparison which most fail. If you're under 10 you'll get away with it because folk are suckers for the cute kid playing.

But for people that can play perhaps the trick is to keep your sunglasses on the entire time until you get a decent recorder - and there's not much hope for the concert pianist being recorded by a fan from the farters and coughers row.

That said, I think you can tell who can play without the sound on, just by looking at them play, certainly in a broad sense. Perhaps there's some use in the recordings from that pov. It'd also be interesting to know how those folk are taught - especially if they aren't self-taught.

Why does she use the metronome at all? It's not helping her because she's ignoring it... ::)

Oh come on, she looks about 7 years old. It sounds like she's still learning the piece. When she has played for longer it will probably be more musical. The lack of musicality is also affected by the fact that she has the metronome on (although she's not following it very well).

she can still follow the metronome better than I can.

but really, to play the whole thing with it on is just a bad idea.  It should be used as a tool to understand and work through tough passages, but not as a drumset.
