Where can I listen to piano accompaniment on the web for free?
I am trying to learn piano accompaniment, I would like to listen to other perform to see if I can use any of their ideas as well. Thaks.
You can use ANY music video posted on YouTube for this one where there’s a soloist and pianist as the accompaniment! Watch the interaction between the performer and the accompanist–the physical gestures that indicate continuing through different movements, tempo, time changes, and the like.
I also suggest you find videos between performers that have limited physical movements in terms of cues–like a bass clarinetist or tubist. Watch to see if you can spot any physical cues that are not "standard." For example, I’m a bass clarinetist and instead of head bobs to cue a downbeat, I take an audible breath and move my instrument slightly to the side.
YouTube has an endless wealth of videos of classical performers. Type in a search and get started!
