    One of my favourites, and one of the earliest pieces I learned. When I play the second half, I sometimes play the melody line in bars 44 - 47 and bars 52 - 55 an octave higher (F#6). It's not as written - but I rather like that small variation. It sounds nice on a digital keyboard if you layer strings under the piano voice, or use a different voice for just those bars for the notes A6 and above.

    I’ve always wanted to lean this piece, and just got a keyboard so googled it, and there you were. Excellent, excellent tutorial. I am a beginner, so worked with you thru the first two staves, realized I’m way over my head, so now downloading your beginner course e-book, and will go back to the drawing board to get some basics. I’ve gone through a couple of your beginner videos which are excellent as well. Thank you so much for all your dedicated hard work in providing these bitesize bits of musical education. Will be one of your first customers when you bring the “course” to video as well. Many thanks from Santa Fe New Mexico.
