Your tutorials are so top notch. I wish I could pay for lessons with someone as proficient, as I'm sure your students learn a ton, but as I can't, the fact that you are kind enough to upload this for free is so kind on your side and valuable for us, you can't even imagine. Thanks a lot!

Merci beaucoup for this lesson. The triplet approach helped me a lot. Salutations de France. And keep safe.

Thank you so much for this. I have just received my copy of this and making a start on it.

[@joosttoast]

Where to get a good sheet paper copy?

[@PianoJules]

I bought the Schirmer combined edition of Album for the young and Scenes of childhood from a music shop on eBay. Lots of other places sell Schirmer edition sheet music. I hope this helps. My piano teacher says to buy Urtext editions because they are closer to the composers original music but they are more expensive.

[@joosttoast]

@@PianoJules thanks!

[@Skyfan1000]

I appreciate this and really like it. I definitely got some helpful ideas from watching your tutorial!! I only do wonder about your thumb especially the RH going so low under the keyboard when you are not using it, when playing parts. Also, sometimes when you are playing and talking, it is difficult to understand you. Thanks for sharing this.

GRACIAS 🎹✨

You're very welcome!

Nice...

This piece is a lot more difficult than it sounds. I've been learning the piano for two years and have just started learning it.

[@rosa7479]

Only 2 years? It seems to me it's too early, but of course it depends on the time you can give to your practice.

This is terriffic. The curmudgeon in me wants to point out that “triplet” has just two syllables. This is what makes music so challenging. ;)

[@kathleenboyer9851]

Well . . . when you're playing a trip-a-let, it definitely has three syllables 🙂
