This piece of music by Robert Alexander Schumann (1810-1856) is from 1848. It is from 'Album für die Jugend' (Album for the young) and is called Erster Verlust (First Loss).
poetsgirl: ignore rookie criticism but encourage students
(old or new) and encourage the performer who
plays or edits or whatever.....beautifully!
schymbros: Very nice interpretation
fabriziobarrera: Justo estoy viendo esto para mi clase de piano
en el conservatorio. Me sirvió mucho,
gracias.
VFroste: You have great emotion. :) I could really hear
the anguish and the pain of a loss. Just some
pointers, though. You have to breathe a little
more. Flow with the music. Allow the emotions
that are so evident in your playing to guide you
through the notes. Go to climactic notes.
Another thing, careful with the last five
measures. The notes are not in staccato, but
they are accented. Also, a bit careful with your
tempo. :) Overall, it was great.
Congratulations!
Kalos00: You need to breath. take your time, sing it,
phrase. 
laalaa2000: why its so grey?
facundomaidana: En el compás 6, en la ultima nota de la mano

Urtext, vos cual usas?
mariamusiclover11: you didn't do a ralendando but it sounds
great!
xmissypx1999: Sounds Great ! But I think the chords at the end
were too staccato, looking at the peice it shows
they are just accented - Overall it was a good
piece :) You played with alot of emotcion which
is really good.. Sounded fantastic
(im playing it tomorrow in my g4 exam)
Sheaiskl: dimminuendo needed at 0:42
CaptainGora: You missed an a natural at 15 seconds and 29
seconds but other than that, great job! Very
nice playing.
lindmusik: Well played but the reverb sounds unnatural.
PurityPrincess: my exam is tomorrow and I have to play this
piece, I really wanna play with as much emotion
as possible. You did a great job! Bravo!
Kastanienzweig: It sounds great!
bossel100: when it comes to rhe part where the melody is
imitated by the other hand, you play way too
mechanic i think and also with the chords in the
end you could add more feeling
5tharchmage: i am learning this and its so good. it;s in
suzuki vol 5
bakilacat: love your interpretation...my goal to have
the feeling etc... what a neat piece.
thanks.
atixairbie7: muy bien de esto se trata la pieza expresar
el dolor
me gusto mucho tu interpretacion
espero y mucha otra gente aprenda a
interpretar las cosas
y no tocar por tocar
Pianda: Very well played and the best perspective on
hands I ever saw on Youtube. By the way -
much better also than your graphically inspired
videos, at least in my view.
Very nice light and atmosphere! Suspense-raising
and catching.
jasjjb: Again,beautiful tones and nicely played.
Thanks
musicoftheuniverse: Schumann is an oddity. His mind best expressed
through his solo piano works. I find the
first volume of the Dover 3-Book-Set to be
the most rewarding for study.
