    Werner Elmker performed a slow version of Für Elise by Ludwig van Beethoven.

    • Beethoven: Fur Elise a...
    Bagatelle No. 25 in A minor for solo piano, commonly known as "Für Elise" is one of Ludwig van Beethoven's most popular compositions. In general, Beethoven's strength was not so much in composing memorable melodies, but more in creating grand musical forms and concepts. However, this simple melody has endeared listeners all over the world and has become one of the most popular classical tunes ever. It was not published during his lifetime, only being discovered forty years after his death, and may be termed either a Bagatelle or an Albumblatt.
    In performance of classical as well as original music, Danish concert pianist and composer Werner Elmker emphasizes the importance of improvisation as the main source of all great music. Improvised music is 'fresh' music created in the moment, and often gives a stronger experience than music notated on paper. Most of the great composers used improvisation during recitals and composing. Like the classical masters, Dr. Elmker improvises in his own tonal language which finds its origin in previous styles of classical music. He utilizes free improvisation, improvisation on original melodies, classical themes, folksongs, and film music. Through performances, CDs, radio programs and education, he seeks to reinvigorate the lost art of classical improvisation.

    So often this beautiful piece is ruined by people trying to show off their brilliance through fast playing. This version is so meaningful. Thank you.

    I love Für Elise played slow. I feel so much more emotion coming from the piece. Because of the reason why Beethoven wrote the piece, I feel like his longing is more dramatic when conveyed slower. I think it's sadder and easier to connect with in my opinion. Well played Sir!

      I think I had something like that. I searched high and low to find this piece (it’s hard to find music when there’s no lyrics) and I finally found it and was so excited… it’s very relaxing

      Yessss still takes me back, I used to rush home from school in grade 3 to listen to Fur Elise, I was always searching for the slowed version at that time (2005), but now I've found it.

    This is the best version for a piano beginner. I started 3 months ago all by myself from knowing absolutely 0 about piano nor any instrument. I followed many other videos but none of them really helped as much as this one. Beautiful and slow for a beginner to follow. I listened almost everyday in past 3 month before I started to practice. 3 months later, finally i could play the whole song. Just want to say thank you for play this so beautifully and motivated a beginner to complete the whole piece. The best thing I have learned during pandemic work from home time.

    My hearing impaired wife plays the piano and is pretty much self taught. I wanted her to play this song slow for me. She said it's not that easy she "Feels and Hears" the music different than I do. I insensitively told her what's the big deal just slow it down. Yes I deserved a punch in the mouth. After a bit she played it for me, and it was as beautiful as you played it.
