Extremely polished and expressive performance, and generous and thoughtful sharing of wisdom. You're wonderful and very much appreciated, thank you.

This is a marvelous performance- and extremely engaging deep dive into this beautiful piece. I am mesmerized.

Such meticulous analysis...thank you! So important to eventually take a piece to that next level...would be a privilege for any piano pupil to have such an excellent piano teacher that is also a brilliant performer...

Amazing video. What a privilege to hear this beautiful woman play and teach. Thankyou many times over.

This video is a few years old now, but it is still so useful. I can't afford a teacher at the moment, but your instruction is invaluable. This is my Grade 6 piece, and I'm playing it at a friend's wedding next week. Thank you for doing this. You have made such a huge difference. Your performance is a joy to listen to and watch.

You are absolutely EXTRAORDINARY, Sally!! Thank you so much!! Your lessons are fantastic!!

It's always interesting to hear very skilled musicians interpret a piece you have heard many times.

There's one word that really fits Sally's music ... m-a-g-n-i-f-i-c-e-n-c-e ... we love your music.

Your passion is very much transferred through your teaching. Thank you for sharing!

Thank you very much Sally, for being the first KZfaq video to which I've given a standing ovation. I've been working my way through this piece like it was just a string of notes made to show off, and your interpretation brought me to tears. The universe is a grand place, isn't it?

Thank you so much for this performance. Virtuoso, balanced, and sooooo intelligent. Great pleasure to listen and to learn!

I'm learning it to! Thank you so much. And my teatcher have learned a lot of things watching and earing you to in our far France. So, thank you again. And pleasure to ear you on your other videos.

Very good teaching! Thank you! I just printed this piece and can´t wait!

I'm currently learning this piece, so glad you uploaded this it will be very helpful! Thank you!

Amazing performance and teaching video! How inspirating this is! Thank you very much and keep up! Best wishes from Italy.

This is brilliant, I LOVE your teaching videos!

I am just learning the Solfeggietto. Your insights into the structure of the piece, its harmonics, dynamics and its overall musicality and genius are marvellous. Wonderful! Thank you so much for making this available.

This piece is always exciting to revisit, and I love using your edition with my students and for myself.

Ich liebe Ihre Videos, Ihre Kunst und Ihre Inspiration! 🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺

Phenomenal lesson! Very thorough and helpful. Thank you for sharing this with everyone!

So interesting to hear the way you have discovered the ideas behind this piece. It will really help me learn it by understanding it. Thank you.

Beautiful performance. Sensitive with lovely expression. Thank you!

Wow Sally, you are wonderful at this. Your teaching really help

Much better than the video from 2013

Nice video!

Thank you, Sally. You made me understand it. You are inspiring!

Thank you for sharing your Grace and passion for music with the world! I feel God through your music!

Outstanding,Amazing,Perfect

Hello Sally, this interpretation of C.P.E Bach' s Solfeggietto is quite amazing.You indeed managed to play it with the perfect balance between virtuosity and expressivity.Your "touché" and "phrasé" are more subtle and wiser, and they give the space required for the piece to be performed.Thank you for being humble enough to listen to advices. You are a genuine Maestra.Waiting for you to perform a sad adagio piano-pianissimo piece of music maybe...

I'm starting to learn this piece. Thank you for sharing!

More please!

Well explained and beautifully played. Thank you.

Love your videos! Thank you for giving quality to KZfaq!

I play this piece and I love how you play the piece and how you teach

Me quedo entusiasmada, escuchando la, que maravilla,. Soy una pianista que empecé muy tarde y eres mi meta, a conseguir. Siempre te sigo, y pongo en práctica tus consejos.

amazing thank you so much .. it unleashed so much from my study of the piece... Brava

(Because teaching is your calling)

Great. "As fast as you can".

Inspired!! ❤

Super cool!

Thank you very much! This was extremely helpful

Very informative, Thank you.

a very beautiful version , thanks

It is always a enjoyable thing to watch your teaching videos, Ms Sally! You are very professional and so beautiful! I have been learning piano together with my son for 4.5 years from his piano teacher . I listen to all his lessons but I move more slowly than him so I need more teaching while I am practicing, as a working mom. Solfegietto is such a beautiful piece that I love a lot and I have been practicing it for months. Your video has largely enhanced my understanding for this precise and improved my skills. I am very appreciated for that you created this teaching video and it is free. I am gonna search on your website to see if I can pay back anything😊

Always a pleasure and very motivating. Glad you're back.

Great !! Enjoyed this very much!

What a wonderful lady...

This video teaches me how to play a rcm 8 song so I can win my friend Ivan’s challenge

Excelenteeeee video maestra muy buen material para los que estamos iniciando este mravilloso mundo del Piano

thank's !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi, this is an outstanding video. The language and quality should make it cost money to watch. But for free?! Thank you very much. Now I can play this and show off to my friends :D

Amazing teaching

That’s my favorite speed-I’m playing air piano!

Working on this now thanks to your video. Thank you so much!

It feels like i was in the room with you. I love it!

Glad you're back!

E perfeita em música e linda

Great video!! I still look forward to a video of Chaconne by Bach

I love your videos!

Hola srta Sally. Bach el gran músico del barroco muy monótonal pero dos mundos diferentes entre las dos manos. No solo eres una especialista en el neoclasicismo vienes también en el barroco. No vendrás de otro planeta jaja. Vendrás a España a dar conciertos??. Un saludo a mi DIOSA DEL PIANO. 🇪🇸

Nice to see you and hear you again :)

I don't play the piano, but I want to learn to play this piece on guitar and your analysis is amazing! I love the way you explain, I'm subscribing to your channel right now. I also love the color red on you :)

I wonder if it is possible to place accents on the synthesizer.

*Kowalski Analysis*

that ending at 1:13 is superb

Muy buena interpretacion

well played, but the explanation about the scale is not correct: in classical music, what we call the 'natural minor' is NEVER used in the ascending form, as you demonstrated, and in this piece in particular, it's the melodic minor that is used, and not the harmonic minor. The harmonic minor, in classical music, although used musically too, is more of a theoretical scale used to explain the generalities of a minor key, without involving the complexity of the melodic minor, which requires the sixth degree to be raised also whenever it approaches the raised seventh. Too long to explain here :)

In the beginning of the piece you said that it is much easier to play it with one hand. What is the reason for playing it with two hands, and why wouldn’t someone just play it with only one?

I just had to write a short story to this piece because we're doing online classes. First I thought to myself "Oh no, classical music", but actually the piece, and the way you've played it, was really amusing me. As well it was pretty nice to write a short story to that piece. Keep it up! :)

Hi Sally! Wonderful video. I had viewed your more recent one on this piece and you referred me back to this 2017 lesson. I'm afraid you misunderstood me when I said I was "beginning to learn this piece" to mean I was a beginner pianist. Actually, I've been playing for years and can play many classical pieces. In regard to this one, I wish your camera angle would have better captured the keyboard so I was more able to see which hand plays which notes. The piece is fast and encompasses a broad range. Thank you for putting out these videos. You are a wonderful teacher.

I watched this and learned the piece today. Do you do lessons? Like through Skype or anything?

Very scale-u-lar and it's not my cup of tea. But you played it well. What is worse is to hear heavy-metal Bach. There always seems to be some motor in Bach's piece that keeps it chugging along. Everything keeps getting pushed along and to what end? Musically are we travelling from Dusseldorf to Hamburg? Things fly by and maybe that was their idea of fun fun fun on the Autobahn. Keep up the good work!

Pedal needed??

nice tempo!

. Much better played than your old one but could still be touched up a bit, great job.

Una pregunta... Esta pieza es a nivel básico? La maestra que tengo con escasas clases de piano ya quiere que toque esto

Hi Sally, This is a great video and it is helping me a lot! but just curious what grade it is? thanks so much :)

11:37

Good for those who are learning....but I think a little too much fuss about Classical music...I think you have to improvise to make ideas your own....

I thought the yellow line said salty Christian!! Lol

it is press NOT hit :)

i push 100 Liked xD

But it wasn't played in this tuning. It was played with the solfeggio tuning (natural). I was once told that the cuckoo is out of tune.... Not believing that nature is mistuned, i soon realised that it is we that have lost the tuning. Cuckoo says perfectly B# C#, B# C#, B# C#. whilst a music expert was telling me that the Cuckoo had a diminished 7th or some such nonsense. The out of tune Cuckoo has no mate, full stop. That is how nature works. In the 30's, all of our tuning was changed. All of the church bells were destroyed. Now A is 440 hz, so they tell us. Rubbish, I say. Now, I know talent when I here it (you have very much talent sally), but I don't here much music.... except the cuckoo, and in nature. A few musicians get it and they make my heart sing... but sadly not enough. Waves on the beach, the wind in the trees and the rush of the waterfall... The musicians of the past would have used nature to tune. They wrote to twang the nerves. Beethoven was profoundly deaf for the last 15 years of his productive life and in those years he produced his finest works because he used his sensory feelings. Biting on a stick to convey the sounds through his skull.... But we don't get to hear it how Beethoven heard/intended it.
