I ragequit because I can't reach a 10th with 1 hand.
>>131493567Who cares about that anyway?
>>131493515... that's it? that's your answer? 'bach'?>>131493543same as abovedo you guys actually listen to music? don't you have taste, opinions, preferences, at all? just namedropping a composer and a couple works is not being 'into it'>bachah my sides
>yeah I'm into art>oh nice like what do you like>bernini>yeah I'm into literature>cool man like what you usually read>goethe>movies are a big part of my life>neat, what you been watching>satantangoyou morons can't hold a real conversation
>>131492759Where you been, bro?I put finishing up Jeux d'eau on hold because I got bored and didn't give myself a deadline... I think I just have a couple pages left to learn and then polish.>>131493567I feel you, brother. Have you tried playing them with your thumb and ring finger? I can reach larger intervals that way.I'm really tempted to buy that smaller scale Athena keyboard.>>131493688Seems like he cares. I care.It limits your harmonic possibilities.>just break them up/roll themNo, that changes how it sounds.
>>131493874Life comes with limitations, I just can't understand the mentality of not enjoying something because you won't be within the top .1% of people
I'm learning Mozart's Turkish March right now.
>>131494081It's not about being top 0.1%, it's about having more options at your fingertips.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VBXYAlmw55w
>>131492894>>131493038What about the celesta? The virginal? The clavichord?
i love playing the piano, it is very therapeutic.
what's the most efficient way to learn and internalize chord shapes?like on guitar you just learn 1 "shape" for a given chord/inversion and it applies everywhere all over the fretboard for any root and it is quite simplebut on piano every major/minor chord feels different on every root note due to the placement of white and black keys and it's hard for me to internalize itthere must be better methods than just brute force practicing shapes or something I don't know
>>131495156There is no trick; just keep playing and you won't need to think about it.When I was learning, my piano teacher had me play scales and then end with a I, IV, I, V(7), I chord progression -- and do that through all keys, either chromatically or by the circle of 4ths/5ths.
>>131494935Agreed
>>131495156Internalize your scales and the chords will follow. Definitely don't just memorize the hand shapes.
>>131492894chromatic accordion>Organ>piano>harpsichord
>>131492759my glarry just arrived what should i learn?
>>131493567>I ragequit because I can't reach a 10th with 1 hand.just get speedyu dont need it anyway in edition you can have the 10th if u compose
>>131493718Bach is god. What else you need?
>>131493688>>131493874>>131496410fuck it I'll just ask AI if a composition requires more than an octave with one hand and if it does I'll disregard it and curse the composer
>>131498275BASEDACH
Does this stand look okay?
>>131493567I can do it with my left hand without issues, but with my right it's impossible. What mean?
>>131498822Holy smokes, I just compared my spread out hands and it seems my left one is like a inch or so wider! Is this some genetic disorder, or is it because I'm right handed?
>>131492759As I actually progress with keyboard, I still find myself using a lot of standard chords like maj7, sus4, add9, etc. and then feel like it's too "boring" even though it sounds fine. Where do you draw the line between jazzier harmony and self-indulgence?
>>131492894Why, they each have a place
>>131493567There are world class pianists who can barely reach an 8ve, literally who gives a fuck
>>131492759what do /piano/bros think about one of my favorite songs?https://youtu.be/9K-lgiTaWAU
>>131498949>>131498822your hands are fucked
>>131495528This. Piano is optimized for pattern-matching scales, the appropriate chord shapes follow from those.
Does a commercial just intonation keyboard exist?
>>131498822I'm the same. For me, I'm pretty sure it's because I stretched my left hand over time to be able to play the larger intervals, but never bothered to stretch my right hand that much because large intervals in the right hand isn't nearly as common.>>131499256>world class pianists who can barely reach an 8ve,>minimum 8.8" for those with international acclaimNext you're going to tell me that there are porn stars with 5" dicks.
>>131502669The average is 8.2? I thought it was 6. This is very unsettling.
>>131502669>minimum is just long enough to easily reach a 10thwell would you look at that
>>131502732I can barley reach a tenth, though the key board I have does have some largish keys.
>>131502699I understand that feel, my fellow gentleman.>>131502732>easily reach a 10thNah. My left hand is basically right at 8.8" thumb to pinky (9" going from thumb to ring finger) and there are some 10ths I can't easily play:E major and B major 10ths are a hair outside my reach. I can play them softly, but there is no way I could drop them quickly in the context of a piece.D major is right at my limit.Ab, Bb, Db, Eb 10ths all have me right at the edge of the key with my thumb (top note).
>>131502579In what key? You can’t tune to “just intonation”, you have to tune to “C just intonation” or “Ab just intonation” or some other specific key.
>consistently practicing piano for almost a year now>still can't play basic music that involves contrary movement of both hands if I have to jump to different areas of the piano
>>131502972Just start slow and slowly increase the speed.Simple as.
>>131502972Same I've been playing for a year and a half now and it hurts my brain
Debussy>bussyHehe
>>131503135Ravel won.
>>131503290True, but the real winner was Faure all along. Sensei always wins.
>>131504435(not true, by the way)
>>131502669Go ahead and tell me women like Yulia Wang have 8.8 inch hands
