I've started playing the piano 2 weeks ago, and I have a question: how long does it take to develop true hands independence? I practice about 3 hours everyday, and I'm followed by a good teacher (I'm mainly doing Bayer exercises, scales, chord progressions and easy long arpeggios)

Who's the best pianist for Bach? I'm more than fine with Gould but his grunting can annoy me sometimes
Jayden King
Koroliov is Gould with better technique, less grunting and higher recordin quality. Is Art of Fugue is probably one of the ''best'' recordings in modern history, in general.
Jonathan Bennett
Yudina
Christian Peterson
Probably after playing Bach (Anna Magdalena's Notebook).
Owen Campbell
Thanks. Looking at Koroliov's Goldberg Variations now
Carter Stewart
Out of curiosity, how old are you? I played when I was very young then switched to trumpet. Would like to play again but I'm worried I won't ever feel comfortable.
Alex Ross dances about architecture fairly well, if you ask me
Nathaniel Gutierrez
I guess that's a good news, since I already know that my teacher will force on me Bach compositions as soon as possible (he's truly obsessed, I'm pretty sure that in his library there is every score ever published by Bach).
I'm 19. I've played bass for my entire teenagehood, I have no experience with keyboards but apparently I've developed by myself lots of musicality (as vague as it may sound). I don't know if I'll aver attempt to master the instrument. I haven't talked about it with my teacher yet and every information on the internet seems to converge on the same opinion: no one can become a piano virtuoso in their 20s. I'm not that hopeful, but I'd love to learn it to a point where I can try my compositions on my piano at ease, wich shouldn't be that hard (a piano major I've talked with told me that being a grade 4-5 is usually enough to enroll in composition courses).

Thanks for the information. I suppose the only thing to do is start lessons. I hardly expect virtuosity, but something close to fluency would be nice.
Alexander Hernandez
What are some good "heavy sounding" composers?
Names I have from previous thread (don't know if legit or not): Bruckner, Stravinsky, Mahler, J.S Bach, Ives, Bartok, Cowell, Carter, Schoenberg quartets, Bartók, Ligeti, Rachmaninoff, Telemann, Liszt. youtube.com/watch?v=ueGb_CIt7DE youtube.com/watch?v=vLkg-duiFsE
I'm not the same guy, btw. Just curious.
John Martin
Add Wagner to that list senpai
Welcome to the high test club
Benjamin Miller
>Wagner >high test
Aiden Thomas
Stop this
Sebastian Bell
is a high test like a drug test to figure out how high you are
Levi Davis
Stravinsky was high test until his faggoty Neoclassical era
Symphony of Psalms, his Violin Concerto and Mass are exempt from that frilly wig and powder faggoty shit though
Evan Parker
>Wagner >high test >literally a manlet, highpitched crossdresser who dressed only in satin and silk
Come on.
Matthew Gray
Oh shit i forgot to ask for your favorite Schoenberg pieces in the OP, post them NOW
>Neoclassical era Classicism is the most high test thing in classical music, unlike wagnerian sentimental firetruckery which gave birth to the utter degeneracy.
Jason Walker
His music speaks for itself
>Classicism is the most high test thing in classical music
classicism degenerated music until the rediscovery of Bach enhanced Haydn, Mozart, and Beethoven's music

Bach sounds better on period instruments
Nathan Powell
Is it worth it to listen to composers like Beethoven and Chopin on piano? Should I listen to fortepiano performances instead?
Wyatt Ramirez
For Beethoven, I think this is decent. No piano sonatas from Stair as far as I know though. Are there even any HIP Chopin performances? Is that a thing?
