What Our Customers Are Saying
I am a Steinway and Sons artist, have sold millions of recordings and had over 30 White House performances. Requests were made at a White House party for some Stevie Wonder tunes so I immediately pulled out my iPad, summoned Musicnotes and bought sheet music for "Overjoyed" and "Ribbon in the Sky". Your company has made me look great in so many performances. Thank you for this fabulous gift musicnotes is to performers.
- David Osborne, Steinway Artist and "Pianist to the Presidents"
I sing some of the most current songs thanks to Musicnotes. I do not know how I would be able to find such great quality piano pieces and such an affordable price anywhere else. I love that I can find basically any song I want in your wide variety of music. I am also glad that you give a preview of the song so I can hear it before I buy it. This site is such a huge help to my performing abilities and is the ONLY site that I will buy sheet music from.
- Z. Schaffer, High School Student
As a piano bar performer I must try to play all requests. I need the sheet music now, today, while it is hot and can earn me tips. I don't have time to find it in a collection or something containing songs I already have, or to wait for the Post Office to deliver it to me. With Musicnotes I can order it, pay for it, and have it in minutes. I can use the song that night & make a better living.

Music question. Piano Alternative: malyshi — LiveJournal
?-
Sexual_brains ( Sexual_brains ) Wrote in Malyshi ,

I took care to have a piano in the house, because even though my daughter is still quite a baby (1 year 2 months full), she loves music very much. For certain reasons, we can’t get a real one yet (this will certainly be decided, but later, but I want to now), so I really want to ask you what we should do: buy a synthesizer, buy a digital piano, or maybe there are some children’s models that you and your kids will love?
It is clear that the sound of the digital, not to mention the synthesizer, is, to put it mildly, not very, probably (I emphasize: these are just my assumptions, so all opinions are only welcome, just please write models so that I can google it!), in comparison with piano.But nonetheless.
Thank you if anyone will respond.
I really want my daughter to play by herself. Somehow, I can. It's a sin not to use it.UPD. How BE wrote incomprehensibly (I confess), while I’m just looking to play different works for my daughter (children’s and more serious), not to be torn to pieces by her, like a grill, but so that she could come in handy later.

Composer, who is sorry. Five unusual facts about Frederic Chopin
Someone once asked Frederic Chopin what word he could use to describe the mood of all his works.
The composer thought about it and said that in his native Polish language there is a word "sorry" (zal). And in it for Chopin there was a whole rainbow of feelings: sorrow, hatred, a seal, a premonition of a threat. He attributed this coloration to his work.
Stanislav Richter, the famous Russian pianist, said about him: "The mysterious, diabolical, feminine, incomprehensible, understandable tragic Chopin." His life was just as different, but perhaps more tragic.

Born in 1810 into a musical family, he was enveloped in some unearthly veil from childhood - he had blue eyes, white, almost transparent skin, and he himself showed amazing intellectual abilities . Little Frederick literally swallows book after book, composes poetry, gives concerts from the age of eight, even draws. He is attracted by folk art and music, therefore, mazurkas - Polish dances - will occupy a special place in his life.
And many of Chopin's melodies will appear from simple songs, will be written in folk ways, contain folk rhythms, and sometimes even imitate the sound of various national instruments. For example, as in Ballade No. 2, F-dur (Op. 38).
© YouTube / Chopin Institute
The great Russian composer and pianist Anton Rubinstein said about Chopin the legendary phrase that is in all textbooks on musical literature: "Chopin is a bard, rhapsode, spirit, soul of the piano." The Pole devoted himself entirely to music, namely to this instrument, really making him sing.
Chopin played music in the dark
As a child, Frederic suffered from nightmares and epilepsy, but despite this, right in the middle of the night he could jump out of bed and run to the piano to play something.
Later, he realized that the darkness allowed him to tune in to the right wave.
Therefore, when playing music, he asked to extinguish all the candles, even if he was visiting, with a huge number of people. This habit remained with him until the end of his life.

As a rule, this is a small play of a lyrical nature - his early works in this genre are just that. Listen to one of the most famous - Nocturne No. 2, Es-dur (Op. 9), written 1829-1830.

Altogether, Chopin wrote more than two dozen nocturnes, and the later miniatures are not like the earlier ones - they are gloomy, with complex harmonies and a dramatic plot. One such example is Nocturne No. 1, c-moll (Op.
48), which he wrote seven years before his death, in 1841.

Chopin wrote exclusively for piano
Strange as it may sound, such a great composer did not write large works for orchestra or ensemble. Well, I didn't write at all. Let's say he tried it - he has, for example, two concertos for piano and orchestra, and they are even performed at big competitions or at concerts. But all these were early opuses, when he was still looking for himself. And found, as you know, in miniatures for piano.
Perhaps this was due to the fact that Chopin himself preferred to play not for a large audience, but in small salons. He did not like public performances at all - during his entire career he gave at most three dozen live concerts. He was such a strange exception to the rule, given that many musicians made (and still do) mostly from this.
Meanwhile, Chopin was an excellent pianist. They wrote about him: “I absolutely can’t believe that this music was created by a man”, “He played so selflessly, like no other musician ...” They said about him: “One of a kind, unlike any other musician.” And many contemporary performers admitted that it was impossible to perform his music in the same way as he did. Hear how Chopin is played by another great composer - Sergei Rachmaninov.

Chopin invented a special device for stretching fingers
Chopin had a small hand. Perhaps that is why he has so many beautiful filigree works, as the pianists say, on fine technique. Listen to his Impromptu Fantasy (Op. post. 66) with such passages.
© YouTube / Chopin Institute
But to be a real virtuoso, you need to be able to master any technique.
Therefore, he came up with a certain device that he wore from his youth, even in his sleep. Although he, of course, brought unbearable pain, he was certainly very effective. With the help of stretching, the composer and pianist could work with his long-standing problem - complex large chords.
His contemporary composer Robert Schumann had a similar method. He fixed his fingers in a stretched position, this ended in a rather serious injury, because of which Schumann had to end his career as a pianist.
Masterpiece "Dog Waltz" Chopin wrote at the request of his beloved
They met in Paris in 1837. Aurora Dupin was known under the name of George Sand, she was a rather famous writer and outrageous personality - she wore trousers, smoked a pipe, but, despite this, she was extremely delicate, tender and amorous in nature (she was the mistress of Prosper Merimee, Alfred Musset and many others) .
"Portrait of Georges Sand and Frederic Chopin" by Eugène Delacroix

One day, literary and musical aristocracy gathered in the salon of the composer and pianist Franz Liszt.
That evening, Chopin saw his future lover for the first time. "What an unpleasant woman," he said, fell in love with her and lived with her for nine years of his life.
Their relationship was very tender, Aurora always took care of her lover, showing him sensitivity and trepidation, because Chopin was in rather poor health. He always reciprocated her. Once, when a woman was playing with her dog, she said that if she were a composer herself, she would definitely compose something masterpiece for her dog. Well, Chopin wrote a waltz, which would later be called the "Dog Waltz", or "Little Dog Waltz" (not the one from "Gentlemen of Fortune", but another).
© YouTube / Chopin Institute
In 1847, their relationship ended - the composer, who at that time was already suffering from tuberculosis, packed up all his belongings and left the George Sand estate in Paris.
For such a fragile nature as Frederic Chopin, this was another blow that he could hardly bear.
Chopin was deeply upset by separation from his homeland
In 1829, the coronation of Russian Emperor Nicholas I took place in Warsaw. This led to civil unrest, and on November 2, 1830, Chopin left Warsaw. His friends gave him a magnificent send-off and presented him with a vessel with Polish soil. Accepting it, the composer declared that he would never be able to return to his homeland. These words turned out to be prophetic.
As you know, the uprising was not successful. Taking these events to heart, Chopin wrote his famous "Revolutionary Etude".
© YouTube / Chopin Institute
The composer wrote more than five dozen mazurkas - Polish folk dances. Hardly experiencing separation from his homeland, he created his last, perhaps the most heartfelt and sad, Mazurka No.
