      1-4 are exactly the same. Why would you make a different level for simply adding pedal and legato wtf is this? Lvl 4 is simply playing the music farther and switching hands for some reason. If you’d play a piece it’s probably you’re gonna play it fully, in noob I could to more than level one 10 times

      Tablea Gaming Some Western Pros are/were extremely good like Cziffra, Argerich, Horowitz, Liszt, Rachmaninov and so on. All of these pianists are at least as good(mostly better) as Lang Lang for example.

    Beethoven wrote Fur Elise for one of his student's that he fell in love with. Since she wasn't the best at piano, he made the notes really easy. After learning about her engagement, he was heartbroken and wrote the rest of the song so hard, that she'll never be able to play it.

    The Subtitles-
    you only need 2 fingers for this level
    smoother playing, but forgot to use pedal
    Better dynamics here, legato
    my favorite part about Fur Elise - this beautiful C major
    Beethoven really loved Elise, didn't he?
    Even better dynamics, slightly faster tempo
    the happy go lucky part. (no one actually likes this section)
    this is the hardest part of the original piece
    When played tenderly and softly, this piece sounds like a beautiful love poem
    I know you're getting bored, so lets bring on Level 5...
    So, Elise be like, "I have a boyfriend," and now Beethoven:
    "HOW DARE YOU REJECT ME, WENCH?" (proceeds to bang the piano which he can't hear)
    "I spent so many hours writing this piece fur you. And now you turn your back on me?"
    "Ok I lied... it probably took me 20 minutes"
    "But still! Do you have any idea the number of nights I spent thinking about you?"
    "You were my immortal beloved..."
    "I still remember when you first came to my piano studio"
    "You were my favorite student. By far."
    "I was enamoured by your grace. your beauty, and your tenderness"
    But clearly, you did not feel the same
    Many women proposed to me over the years, but the whole time, I only had you in my mind.
    But clearly it is all over now.
    You're nothing to me anymore.
    I will bear the scars of this pain.
    I will RISE FROM THE ASHES
    I may be losing my hearing. But I have not lost my brain
    The symphonies in my head... the string quartets, the sonatas, they yearn to be written
    And I. Will. NOT. Let the likes of you stop me from becoming immortal.
    From ashes to ashes, we all must pass through life
    You can't take it with you. But you can leave behind a legacy.
    So you have decided to marry that buffoon merchant. I get it. He's rich while I'm just a poor composer
    But do you not see what's inside my soul?
    Do you not hear the purity of my music, its strength and its power?
    Instead all you see is money. Oh and he's taller, which is also your preference
    But so what if I am just a poor, short composer with failing hearing?
    I too deserve love. I too want kids.
    You could have been remembered as Beethoven's wife. As my queen, my empress, my angel
    Instead, you will be forgotten in the sands of time.
    People will worship my name forever, but they will never know the hole in my heart that you have left me
    Now fare you well, respected Elise! I wish you all the good and beautiful things in this life."
    Bear me in memory - no one can wish you a brighter, happier life than I -
    Even should it be that you care not at all for me...
    Sincerely... your devoted servant and friend...
    ~Ludwig van Beethoven
    Quietly, Beethoven leaves Elise's apartment complex, walking towards the city outskirts
    "Now. I have no more distractions."
    It's time to meet my destiny.
    THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF PRINCES. BUT THERE IS ONLY ONE BEETHOVEN.
    (my brother doesnt count)
    (seriously, that guys bonkers)
    Chopin, you suck too
    BEETHOVEN OUT

    I'm not sure if I prefer lvl 5 to your older versions of fur Elise, but that's not the point. We all have preferences, if you like it, then that's good! Also congratz on 200K subs!

    Turn on captions for the full commentary and experience!
    Note - I wrote this story based on the story of Beethoven and Therese Malfatti, who is the supposed "Elise" in Fur Elise. Supposedly, Elise (Therese) friendzoned Beethoven bigtime, and so I wrote a rather dramatic and heartfelt monologue from Beethoven's point of view (AKA poorly written fanfiction). By many accounts, Beethoven was "stubborn and self-involved, dramatic" and I sought to capture this personality in the story. His actual letter to her wrote: "Now fare you well, respected Therese. I wish you all the good and beautiful things of this life. Bear me in memory-no one can wish you a brighter, happier life than I-even should it be that you care not at all for. Your devoted servant and friend Beethoven."

    Noob: You only need 2 fingers for this level
    Student: smoother playing, but forgot to use pedal
    Intermediate: Better dynamics here, legato
    My favorite part about Fur Elise - this beautiful C major
    Beethoven really loved Elise, didn't he?
    Advanced: Even better dynamics, slightly faster tempo
    The happy go lucky part. (no one actually likes this section)
    This is the hardest part of the original piece
    When played tenderly and softly, this piece sounds like a beautiful love poem
    I know you're getting bored, so lets bring on Level 5...
    Extreme / Epic / Expert: So, Elise be like, "I have a boyfriend," and now Beethoven:
    "HOW DARE YOU REJECT ME, WENCH?" (proceeds to bang the piano which he can't hear)
    "I spent so many hours writing this piece fur you. And now you turn your back on me?"
    "Ok I lied... it probably took me 20 minutes"
    "But sill! Do you have any idea the number of nights I spent thinking about you?"
    "You were my immortal beloved..."
    "I still remember when you first came to my piano studio"
    "You were my favorite student. By far."
    "I was enamoured by your grace. Your beauty, and your tenderness"
    But clearly, you did not feel the same
    Many women proposed to me over the years, but the whole time, I only had you in my mind.
    But clearly it is all over now.
    You're nothing to me anymore.
    I will bear the scars of this pain.
    I will RISE FROM THE ASHES
    I may be losing my hearing. But I have not lost my brain
    The symphonies in my head... the string quartets, the sonatas, they yearn to be written
    And I. Will. NOT. Let the likes of you stop me from becoming immortal.
    From ashes to ashes, we all must pass through life
    You can't take it with you. But you can leave behind a legacy.
    So you have decided to marry that buffoon merchant. I get it. He's rich while I'm just a poor composer
    But do you now see what's inside my soul?
    Do you not hear the purity of my music, its strength and its power?
    Instead all you see is money. Oh and he's taller, which is also your preference
    But so what if I am just a poor composer with failing hearing?
    I too deserve love. I too want kids.
    You could have been remembered as Beethoven's wife. As my queen, my empress, my angel
    Instead, you will e forgotten in the sands of time.
    People will worship my name forever, but they will never know the hole in my heart that you have left me
    Now fare you well, respected Elise! I wish you all the good and beautiful things in this life."
    Bear me in memory - no one can wish you a brighter, happier life than I -
    Even should it be that you care not at all for me...
    Sincerely... your devoted servant and friend...
    ~Ludwig van Beethoven
    Quietly, Beethoven leaves Elise's apartment complex, walking towards the city outskirts
    "Now. I have no more distractions."
    It's time to meet my destiny.
    THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF PRINCES. BUT THERe IS ONLY ONE BEETHOVEN.
    (my brother doesn't count)
    (seriously, that guys bonkers)
    Chopin, you suck too
    BEETHOVEN OUT
