This tutorial is so helpful. I'm self learning piano just for the pleasure. With the help of your tutorials it's easier for me to learn more and more, and learning is one of the best things in life. I truly appreciate your work and dedication. Thank you a lot :)
This is my favorite song ever. I’m trying to learn how to play it for months. I have a few issues with some small parts. Thanks for the video, it helps. I hope I’ll be able to play the complete piece soon.
7:06 I’m almost done with memorizing this piece, it’s so beautiful! Thank you for uploading these videos. Every time I’m stuck at some section, I come here
Hi, Jane. I want to take a moment to thank you for all the efforts you put into your videos. You are really nice, and all the efforts you put into these useful videos, you really deserves a whole lot more subscribers. THANK YOU. Truly. May god bless you and I wish you a wonderful, wonderful Christmas
I am practicing this piece now and your video helps me so much for correct hand position. I am adult piano learner so I don't have any teacher, in youtube Paul Barton and you are the best. Thanks!
Great tutorial. Thank you very much for posting this video. I found out this piece was also called “To love again” and was the recurring theme in the 1956 movie “the eddy duchin story.” I didn’t know that it was a Chopin nocturne.
Ok just subscribed! For me it has been on and off trying to learn the second part (first learned by ear) and after a lot of repetition and with your guiding hands now I understand where I’m missing the keys (and I don’t have the original sheet) 🤗🤷♂️🙈🙃
Dear Calvin, the best teacher is the one who teaches you to learn without a teacher. Learn to search on your own. Go to Google, enter the composer, title of work, and IMSLP in the search box, and you will find many editions. Choose an edition with fingering that suits your hand structure. Tell me you did it?
Hi @Jane, from minute 3:44 of the video where the score says "simile" the pedal is no longer indicated. It's because it must not be used or because the use il similar as before? thanks very much!
hi jane, thanks for those videos , but can u tell me how to get the most out of your videos because i am lost, i don't know how to start. should i look at your finger and follow them or read the sheet music. thanks again for your time and effort
Had hoped that all would learn to read music, then try to follow the score. Did you look at my sight-reading lessons? Viewers have surprised me though, learning pieces by ear and imitation. That means whichever way suits you best, is ok...
Hi Jane, I have been a self taught pianist for about a year now and I have recently just (almost) completed this piece. The only thing that I seem to have difficulty with is the group of semi quavers near the end, for some reason I find this to be the most difficult part of the piece when playing it at tempo. Do you have any advice or tips, I also would like to know what piece you would recommend after properly learning this piece
Hi KeY, practice only the end part that you find troublesome. Set the metronome to a very slow tempo. When few mistakes, tick the speed up a little, so little that you don't even notice the difference. Repeatedly practicing like this forms finger muscle memory, soon you will reach tempo, and play evenly. As far as what piece to play next, you should choose a piece you like. If you can sightread through the piece without too much difficulty, it is the correct level for you.

Letters are detours to music reading. Letters are for communication purposes only. The staff is an image of the piano standing on its side. Each note on the staff indicates its keyboard location. Look at my sightreading lesson 1?
@@davdiste set it to the speed where both of your hands can play well together, practice a short section at a time by gradually increasing the tempo upon each repeat
You’re welcome. We do not have to obey the printed fingering. Hand structures differ, that is why different editions have different fingering. We can experiment and make up our own.
Hi Roberto, to answer your question, I would have to start the video, set the metronome to 60 bpm (1 sec per beat), then adjust it up or down to match the video. Will let you try that, so that you will be able to find the tempo of any video
Robert, I'm glad that you are so careful reading the score. But please play what sounds good to you. Chopin editions differ the most. View a few other editions on imslp? Urtext is known to be most faithful to manuscripts.
Many viewers manage to just listen, observe, then imitate. And keep practicing it until it sounds good. To learn classical piano seriously, start with my sight-reading lessons, practice one set of scales/arpeggios each week. The latter are invaluable for building technique.
I did this one, with Jane's help and a teacher. Jane: I have a serious musical proposition. I have found Liszt to be fascinating, but too hard in most cases. I need a level 7 or less piece suggested by you; from Liszt's works. I have found La Campanella, and the Hungarian rhapsody #2, very monstrous. Do you think Un Sospiro, or Liebstraum (famous love dream) would be more my level? That is all I ask. What level of play is the latter mentioned? I want to learn.
Piano Man42 No those are also of high level (un sospiro is performance level) You could opt for simplified version of pieces such as Claydermann liebestraum Bendel version of Hungarian rhapsody Consolation 1, 3, 6 and en reve have been recommended www.pianostreet.com/smf/index.php?topic=44871.0
Use the ‘View” option without downloading. Can also try Google ImageSearch to see which version has pedal markings. If none, listen carefully and experiment holding different duration. Never over pedal.
Hello, I have a question, if I learn this song with this tutorial without having read the sheet or anything, but still able to play it, does that mean that I'm a pianist or that I can play the piano or not?
The act of playing piano does not equate to being a _pianist_. Learning this piece by rote would be an accomplishment, and you can certainly claim you _play the piano_. Will you become a pianist? Only if you build a comprehensive repertoire and play superbly. To achieve that, it would be difficult without reading music.
Thank you for all your tutorials But, this is level 5? This took me 2 month to finish and I think this piece should be about level 7. I kind of think it is too hard for a level 5 piece..... But thank you for helping me!
Thanks for writing. My levels are estimates, based on how easy or difficult I found to sight-read the piece while making the tutorial. Thus, rough guide :)
Jane can you please make a video with J.B cramer 60 studies No.15, I download the sheet, but no tutorial available, you are my teacher on RUclips, can I please ask for help
The left hand part is too scarily hard. Left hand is busier than right hand and has big jumps and big-hand chords. 😕 How to approach it to begin with? (Really appreciate your tutorials)
Pick one line that looks difficult. Then carry out this experiment: set a metronome to your competent 2-hand speed, mistake-free. The keep repeating the line by ticking the beat up by 1 bpm until you reach the desired tempo. If you learn it well, that means you can learn the entire piece. good luck!
Yes, you are fine to learn this. My teacher assigned this my 3rd year. In fact, you can learn it by yourself and surprise your teacher with it :) Instead of playing the entire piece every time, concentrate on the parts that give you trouble. That saves lots of practice time. Let me know how you do :)

im still new at piano would it be best to learn this by learning each hand individually or, work with both
Play one hand just once or twice, the sooner you combine the hands the better. start at slow speeds where both hands can manage together.

Is it customary to start trills above the written note? 2:05 for example
Brian H it depends, and has no clear answer. My sight reading lesson on ornaments gets into that a little.

You’re welcome. We do not have to obey the printed fingering. Hand structures differ, that is why different editions have different fingering. We can experiment and make up our own.
hey jane i just wanted to ask, at 3:25 is the left hand suppose to play F? i think it's suppose to play G right?
Looked at that measure, appears ok. Check again? Glad you are careful !
Didn't read it right, yes it's an F, your're correct, my bad!
me gusta mucho esta canción!

Hi, sorry one question: what speed did you use in this tutorial ?
Hi Roberto, to answer your question, I would have to start the video, set the metronome to 60 bpm (1 sec per beat), then adjust it up or down to match the video. Will let you try that, so that you will be able to find the tempo of any video

It seems to me almost 52-50 bpm for each eight note....
good job experimenting!
It's very useful for me ❤
thanks for letting me know ☺️
La mano izquierda no toca las 3 teclas a la vez?
Where? Please compare editions on IMSLP. They differ quite a bit.

Glad you like them
Why you dont play legato when notes are under one bow? For example first and second note? Anyway great tutorial, good job!
As long as you know it, I don't have to :) But then, I got curious and am looking at my video. The 1st and 2nd note are not under one bow!
Jane hmmm i dont get it, in my opinion they are, and u cannot put your fingers up from keyboard while playing them
Robert, I'm glad that you are so careful reading the score. But please play what sounds good to you. Chopin editions differ the most. View a few other editions on imslp? Urtext is known to be most faithful to manuscripts.
