I could watch this 100 times. I can’t believe I get this content for free

8:44 what a BRILLIANT analogy. An empty bottle being pushed down in water is PERFECT ❤
-
What a beatiful interpretation by Jean-Efflam... such a shame this video has only been seen 33k times. A hidden gem.
-
What a great lesson this is. It helped me so much! We need more videos like this!
-
Exceptional! This offers a rare combination - deep analysis that can be absorbed by non professionals. On behalf of all those who struggle for results with this piece, thanks so much.

There is no way to express how fantastic this video is. Thank you so much.

Thank you for “shedding light on the moonlight”. Thank you for your generosity in sharing this lesson on how to approach, interpret, understand and play.

When I listen to Clair de lune I am almost always brought near to tears. To think, I could ever play this without torrents of tears is unimaginable.
-
He is excellent in analyzing and playing. Thumbs up.
-
This is the first time I have fully understood the piece. Very intensive explanation. All the more I came to appreciate the beauty of this music. Thank you Mr. Bavouzet.

This has been an immeasurable help. I have watched this countless times. It is a privilege to be able to learn from Monsieur Bavouzet. Who has such deep insight into the piece. The images he has described have accompanied me throughout learning the piece. Is there any chance he might do another tutorial on debussy? The reverie or first arabesque maybe? Thank you so much for this!
-
I can’t believe he’s doing this for free ❤. Yes! This is my go to piano lesson after I’ve learned to play it slowly…. I love how he teaches this. Thank you so much for sharing this treasure 👏

This finally convinced me that I'm not ready for this piece.
-
Really appreciate the deep knowledge and wisdom with beautiful artistic articulation. Only sadness is he did not talk about pedals :(

Thank you SO much for this valuable lesson 🙂🙏🏼🌹

22:32 I understand exactly what this is. One of my dreams is to play this beautiful composition on a piano. Right now I only have one keyboard. Whenever I listen to Clair de Lune, my eyes also fill up, as a beginner at this part. This part has something magical, which I don't know how to explain... but it's as if it were "rebirth", the dawn or the sigh, after a moment of emotional decline. It's really thought-provoking and very beautiful. 😢

Amazing!!! I just resurrected this piece from my youth and this so instructive!!
