Child prodigy wows crowd with performance of Mozart's Concerto No 3 in D major.
Meet Elisey Mysin. The Russian-born piano-lover, who is thought to be just 8-years-old (this is not confirmed), blew the audience at his concert away earlier this year when he performed Mozart's Concerto No 3 in D Major effortlessly in the city of Naberezhnye Chelny, Russia.

Is there any pianist who is looking for a duet partner of mostly baroque and classical repertoire? Also i would love to try some old school video game rep like Zelda and Mario if any scores are out there. Please message me if you're interested. And let me know if this is the wrong part of the forums to post and either move it for me or I'll move it. Cheers all, Jess

Hello Guys!
I got to learn some useful tips from this article- “10 tips from a good performer to a great performer”. I have never realized some of these tips until now. Still, better late than never! Hope you find it useful too! cheers :)

Nice sharing! I think the weekly meetup already helps with point 5 and 8!

Is there anyone seeking to play a duet or a piece for four hands or maybe needs a vocalist, instrumentalist or more? Why not list your title and composer below and we can take it away by contacting each other through the user messaging function for a lively collaborative performance at our weekly recitals.

Gavin, I only managed to play very very simple duet with my teacher, hehehe. I'm still beginner. But I like duets!

Here are books of classical duets from various composers that are begging to be performed by Pianovers: Here are books of classical duets from various composers that are begging to be performed by Pianovers: Of course, you can just go to IMSLP and pick a composer that you like and look up their list of duets or 4 hands piano pieces.

How many pianists here love taking a hiatus now and then from playing the piano and trying something else - like learning another instrument, composing music, limelighting as a lyricist, or partaking in singing?

Cakewalk! Superb! Been using its ancient versions for orchestral music arrangements since the early 90s, recently upgraded to using Sonar Artist!

"Comping" is short form for complement or accompaniment. You can read more about it here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comping... See More "Comping" is short form for complement or accompaniment. You can read more about it here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comping

Yes, some of Clayderman's pieces are still appealing. But I got tired of the boring left-hand accompaniment styles from Olivier Toussaint and Paul de Seneville. See image for what I mean....

Har... I just saw the scores for the Harmonies piece. So many chords. ? ? Definitely beyond me.

This makes the piano performances so fun, and entertaining to listen to! Haha!!
Have you been seriously pondering over the following question? Many pianists avoid this question, perhaps because of sociopolitical sensitivity (instead of musical sensitivity)?
Take for example the entire China with a population of 1.3 billion. Most would agree that the most celebrated (classical) pianists are Lang Lang and Li Yundi.
So my question is: Are there other pianists (non-celebrities) in China whose piano playing is on par with theirs? If the answer is yes (e.g. if... See More

Take for example the entire China with a population of 1.3 billion. Most would agree that the most celebrated (classical) pianists are Lang Lang and Li Yundi.
So my question is: Are there other pianists (non-celebrities) in China whose piano playing is on par with theirs? If the answer is yes (e.g. if you say at least thousands of them), then why aren't they famous? In other words, does it mean that only when you reach this level of piano playing superiority will you definitely be "discovered" and made eminent?
Note that I'm confining my topic to pure playing-by-score instead of playing-by-ear or improvisations, since that would have opened a bigger can of worms.
For those who feel that within China, very few pianists would match or beat the level manifested by Lang Lang or Li Yundi, then my next question for you will then be: What is it that they can do (or do well) which other pianists in China can't? Is it the speed or tempo of playing? Or is it their sheer playing techniques? Or is it their interpretations?
I would like to hear your viewpoints before I elaborate on this further.
Goh Zensen
Wayne, very well said! I'm in agreement with every statement you've made; and thank you so much for making explicit what I've been wanting to say (but haven't said it) for years!

Actually a lot depends on luck too. You can be super talented and hardworking, but you still need luck to get noticed, appreciated, groomed. ?
