@eclipse561 No promises ;] Haha
it’s amazing! brilliant perfomance and very funny idea!
@UniqueGirlXliving Please do not kill me for my big hands.
@Laudan08 another tidbit of information, he could stretch a C to a G with index finger and little finger (we can all do that) but then stretch up to a top E with his thumb!
Great skit! The assistant’s expressions is priceless.
@DonatiStudent
On the note of ‘idiots’ you’ve spelt the words…

Prelude No. 1 in c# minor
Most of the time, when the chords were too big to play with both hands, they would use a roll technique to play all the notes, then continue on.
@eclipse561 Like me. Haha.
@tunglour Do you mean the very beginning? Like the first 6 measures or so? All of those chords are major, minor, dimished, or major-minor 7th chords. It’s just that they aren’t all chords found in the key signature. Also, some chords in measure 5 and 6 have suspensions that resolve down in the next beat. There are also some quick modulations in there to different tonal centers. The right hand playing in fifths/octaves makes the chords seem different as well.
It seems it would take a lot more talent to do this than use your hands! To quickly grab the wooden frame and slam it down in the exact spot must have taken a lot more practice than playing it by hand! I’m sure this guy could already do it, but it is funny/talented that he did this video. I’m learning this piece right now, it’s so beautiful.
“But only hands small!” lolololololol
my hands are small and I can still play this piece..but at times, I wish I had those wooden frames with pegs..
