I got my 60-year-old mother back into the piano after decades of not playing with this video! I'm 27 and I've been playing for 3 months after 15 years of never touching a piano. Thank you for the inspiration! 💜
I came to this site as a 73-year-old 60-day-old novice and found it super helpful. Luckily, I downloaded the sheet from the web and followed the session along with it. That made it even better. If there can be a follow-up session on the remaining parts of Fur Elise, please do let me know.
You are the most wonderful competent teacher in the world, nice, gentle, sweet, adorable with your beautiful hands like butterfly in the air. I'm an old Italian woman, never studied piano, english explanations are difficult for me and the internet world either , so I'll learn as much as I can at my age. Thanks for this very clear tutorial. I like you very much Marina, you are angelic and I dream to meet you one day, and be your friend. A big hug
Good morning Marina, I am 70 and i just decide to play piano which i left 50 years ago. I am very happy to find your channel, you are a super teacher. Many thanks to your kind heart to put all these you tube for people to self learn . again thanks and thanks. Katherine.👋

Thank you so much! I now know how to play Für Elise even just half of it.. My parents are very proud of me now. Thank you a bunch! Thank you thank you thank you! You are the best piano teacher in the world!♡
I am 60 started Keyboard during this lockdown and started learning from youtube. Yesterday came across this Fur elisa tutorial could learn in a day. You wat of teaching excellent. Thank you for providing this I am grateful to have learned music from you!
Hi THANK YOU ! I am 63 years, live in India and decided to learn the piano !!!!! The internet has a lot of stuff but - just toooooo much and I struggled for the last one month till I came across your video. In one week I learned to play some of Canon in D and I am amazed and joyful !!!! So thank you.
I started the piano about 1 month ago and I finally know how to play the full version! It's actually pretty easy compared to Beethoven's other pieces :) all you need to do is practice and relax your body
you made difficult tasks look so simple, i realized when i practiced step by observing ur videos and take them everywhere in my mobile. stay happy and blessed always
@@ThePianoKeys oops, that word should be patient... lol thanks for the reply, what a nice teacher, and beautiful, just is it possible to turn the volume a little bit up next time when you record it?
I'm 59 and 3 months in learning the piano and have been working on this piece now and I have the pattens down and it "resembles" the piece but your hands are like angels floating across the keyboard where mine are like bricklayers hands laying a brick wall BUT thank you for laying out the how your hands are meant to move over the keyboard. I will replay this vid while I revise my piano skills, again many thanks.
I think it's wonderful that you are learning to play. Keep in mind that, just like with any physical activity, it takes time and the correct application of technique to gain mastery. Make sure that you are not playing just pieces, but also doing my technique exercises. Also, watch the videos where I talk about technique. :)
Im sorry but the near end of the video I couldn't do it but great tutorial... I already knew how to play the beginning of the song but I have learnt even more . Thank you
It's so hard to play both hands. I'm 60 years old n my favorite group of the 70's was The Ohio Players...n my favorite member was Billy Beck he played the piano n lead vocals, music arrangement song writter. He wrote the music to the 1977 Movie " The Greatest" About Muhammad Ali. But Michael Masser. Stold it. I always wanted to b just like him when I was a young teenager 13/14 ..but never persuade the gift. But now I'm trying to learn using the Greatest Piano piece ever wrote..as a lesson. WOW 😲! But I like how u teach it..u break it down inna very understanding way. Thank You for your time...
This is amazing. Thank you so much. I am so grateful for this video I was struggling with cathing up with left hand and trying to figure it out on my own. Your explanation of hand position and movement for this particular piano piece is exceptional. I always wanted to learn to play piano. I actually tried to get in to music school when I was 7 years old beck in Europe, on I was on waiting list, because most of the actors children where trying out as well and got in. And when they approved me I already made friends with kids in regular school and Mom decided to keep me there. Which is ok because I made friendships lasting lifetime. I am in my 50's children flew out of the nest and it's time to achieve my dreams. Which was to sit down to piano and just being able to play. Thank you for your time and dedication. Sending love, peace and kindness ❤
Thanks so much, Agnes! I'm so happy that you're now able to dedicate yourself to your love of piano playing! If you're on Facebook, join my community - Piano Practice Tips With The Piano Keys.
Reading some of these comments, some folks want to walk before they creep. Folks music takes time, but with a teacher as Maria, be patient with yourselves, remember Rome was not built in a day. Well done Maria. You make the masses happy.
I don’t think I could sing your praises enough. I have literally tried so many other videos and was not able to get in depth the way you have I feel like I’m actually making progress being a complete novice. Thank you. I love the way you hands just elegantly and gracefully move along the keys as if it’s just effortless I hope to get as proficient one day
I love your method of teaching, so clever! It’s so easy to understand and follow. I‘Ve never learned piano, but it’s has been my dream and passion. I watched your video, got inspired, bought an digital piano, got it delivered today, play along your teaching, and I could play part 1 with both hands together!!! Even I played it slowly, but I am so happy with my first day!! 😁😁. It’s encouraged me to learned and practice more. Thank you so much! You’re so talented and kind. Please don’t stop making this type of tutorial. ❤️❤️😊
Great video. I'm just starting out on my piano learning journey and this is my first song I'm trying to master. Thank you for taking the time to help us all. All the best
I am 10 yr old I know whole music theroy in 1 month learned fur elise learning la campella and moonlight Sonata 3rd mvt but your way of teaching is different love your videos great work .

Alors, I gonna take this piece as my 4th piece learning from you after Rondo Alla Turca, Moment Musical and Canon in D.... encore une fois, mille merci de me donner beaucoup de bonheur illimité 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
Gosh....your are so great player, polite and gentle, very patience person. Well, i have learn playing this song almost in full, wish you have more videos with every day pop songs.

thankyou so much again for this wonderful tutorial!!! i like how you repeat the steps so that it can be easier to learn and you're explaining it very clear ... but this channel is so underrated, for me this is the best piano channel... i hope that you could grow into a bigger one in the future!!! thankyou for making tutorials!!! :D
Beautiful! The way you play the piano and the way you teach! Thank you very much!!! I would like to find a piano tutorial of "Carol of the Bells" and "The Sound of Silence"
wow this is the first video I watch on this channel and when I looked at the subs I was expecting 2 or 3 million subs and it turns out its only 4k 😱😱 how come,you are so amazing and talented and you deserve waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay more subs.❤️U
I appreciate your tip at 22:37 minutes, to lift with the wrist not with the fingers. I have been watching your hands very closely and I can see that they are so relaxed and almost swaying with the rhythm of the music. I am trying to do this the best I can. These techniques and tips are more important for me to learn than the song itself. As always, thanks for your videos and your willingness to teach others.
Thanks, Jim Redner. I think of it as every movement having a follow through. It's like if you're swinging a tennis racket or throwing a ball, there's a part that comes after the racket hits the ball, or the ball leaves your hands. So, playing the key isn't the end of the movement, there needs to be a follow through of that.
