The Sound of Silence - Disturbed - Piano Cover/tutorial
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 24 авг 2024
- This video showcases my piano solo cover of "The Sound of Silence", originally composed by Paul Simon and covered by numerous artists. However, in my opinion, the Disturbed rendition is the best.
I aimed to recreate the same dark and powerful mood in my piano arrangement, which was quite challenging.
Despite a few tempo errors due to my emotive playing style, I have adjusted the tempo on my sheet music to match the official Disturbed version.
Piano: Korg Kronos II (Piano sound: BREAK OF DAWN PIANO QR)

I appreciated the different colour notes. Made it easier to distinguish which notes were coming up while practicing
I'm very in love with this song, and the first time I heard it I nearly wanted to cry. The lyrics and the way it is sung just have such a huge impact on many. I've only been playing for eight and a half years, but I've been determined to learn this song for a while now, and finally have the guts to go for it. The nostalgia and dynamics just really contrast the song and the emotion that came across to me was very powerful. It is definitely my favorite version, and this has been my favorite played tutorial. It was very well played, beautifully performed, and feels very powerful every time I listen to this. If I'd only I'd watched it sooner ;)
Thank you
It should be relatively easy for you, no?
To some, it might be considered easy to play, but in order to perform the contrast, dynamics, and all the emotion....There are two types of musicians in this world. Those who play heartlessly, and it sounds beautiful, but they don't play with the heart, they just play to play. The second is those who play deeply and passionately with all they have, and their body feels the music...and just by doing that, it sounds a thousand times better. I'd consider myself as the second. I'm a perfectionist, so I can't just butcher a song as beautiful as this one. It'd be a disgrace to the world and generation.
@@elliephantom6317 Indeed. For this cover, I played with my heart and tried to render the feeling and emotion that I've memorised so I didn't count the beat. It's why it's so off beat.
But I played it again a few days after, but this time respecting the original tempo and I wrote the sheet music, but it's not so beautiful and people didn't like it, so I deleted the second video. I still prefer my first version with all my mistakes.
@@Flabis-piano Nonetheless, it was still a lovely performance, everyone makes mistakes.
I love coming to your channel to learn, I've been playing piano for over 40 plus years, I read music and play by ear. Your camera view; shows me exact hand placement and chord progressions are easy to learn with your innovative way of teaching, I just want you to know I appreciate you and what, and how your doing it my friend. Thank you for your awesome teaching skills. Your a credit to all musicians.
Oh dear, thank you so much. You make my day and encourage me to continue.
What would you like to learn with my next tutorial?
I've watched people play it with the piano version and I wasn't convinced it was the right way to play it There are some parts that don't sound like the song at all except for you You played it in the original version correctly keep up your amazing work 🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺
That's incredible ! It's my turn now to learn this music at piano ❤
@@ClémenceLefebvre-y5n Great! Please don’t use this video as reference but my tutorial with the right tempo
@@Flabis-piano alright ❤️
You did a beautiful job here...I shouldn't say job...the work is good...your passion shines through. Thank you
Beautiful piece, thank you for sharing.❤ I’ve learned this song by watching your video over and over.
Now I can play it from ear and sing along my voice.
Hello darkness, my old friend
I've come to talk with you again
Because a vision softly creeping
Left its seeds while I was sleeping
And the vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains
Within the sound of silence
In restless dreams I walked alone
Narrow streets of cobblestone
'Neath the halo of a street lamp
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light
That split the night
And touched the sound of silence
And in the naked light I saw
Ten thousand people, maybe more
People talking without speaking
People hearing without listening
People writing songs that voices never share
No one dared
Disturb the sound of silence
"Fools" said I, "You do not know
Silence like a cancer grows
Hear my words that I might teach you
Take my arms that I might reach you"
But my words like silent raindrops fell
And echoed in the wells of silence
And the people bowed and prayed
To the neon god they made
And the sign flashed out its warning
In the words that it was forming
And the sign said, "The words of the prophets
Are written on the subway walls
And tenement halls
And whispered in the sounds of silence"
I love this version 😍 I was so in love with the emotion that came across I didn't really pay attention to the rhythm or anything that might be off 😂 still managed to write down the scores (from the part I wanna learn at least) so thanks a lot for this tutorial ❤️
It's super super beautiful, please sheets!!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
This is awesome. I’m gonna learn it!
This is beautiful and very melancholic
Amazing work! This channel is going to blow up! Rosseau, Kassia, and SeeMusicPiano better watch out!
Very beautiful and relaxing 👏🏻
Wow I was able to play it in my first try, great tutorial 👍
A lovely rendition of a lovely version by Disturbed, cant wait to have a go at this myself now. My only respectful point is, its crying out for some emphasis towards the end - im gonna be mashing my keyboards full velocity out by final few bars haha! But well done.
*Clapping* beautiful!
So far the best piano cover of this song yet!
This👏Is👏Underrated👏
Simply beautiful.
💯
Excellent Perfomance Françoise Labis ! Very nice sound and arrangemment ! Edilson Egito, Brazil.
I fall asleep hearing it..
C'est excellent Françoise, j'adore ta version.
Amicalement Albert
How do you get the notes to come down on the top like that so you know what key/s your playing next x
@@Sparkybum Synthesia Game, SeeMusic, MuseScore … can do that , or AfterEffect if you are good in video edition
Thanks
Wow. Bravo.
Just what I was looking for as one of my fav songs and trying to take up piano. Advice for a beginner? Concentrate on one hand at a time? Thanks again!!
Thanks for watching and commenting. It's great that you want to start to play piano, it will be hard at the beginning but so satisfying after a few weeks, don't be discouraged to soon. This song is indeed beautiful but not recommended for beginners, it's fast, in a complicated key, with a complicated rhythm and a complicated melody. It's more for late intermediate players or advanced.
When I recorded this song, I was playing what I remembered from this song so it looks like good but it isn't apart my emotions. It contains many errors (notes and rhythms) and I don't recommend this video to learn this song. I made another tutorial based on my sheet music without mistakes, you should use that one instead if you want to try anyway. ruclips.net/video/TUdDWPDOMno/видео.html
If you like this type of tutorial instead of reading sheet music, I strongly recommend to use the app called Synthesia Game. You can buy the midi file on my website and upload it in the app. Then connect your phone, tablet or computer to your digital piano and the app will show you the same type of visualisation but more clearly, and you can start with one hand at a time , the app will wait you till you play the right note, so you don't have to press pause and rewind. The app will you show which keys to press, when and how much mistakes you made. (I'm not sponsored by this vendor) . You can try the app for free with a few integrated beginner songs. Later, you can upgrade the app for a few bucks and import any midi files.
If you like movie soundtracks, I've just published a lesson for beginners to play Time from Inception. With this lesson you will understand the basics of music and this will help you for the future. It's my last video. Just the first part is enough for beginners, the next parts are for intermediate and advanced players. All you need to know for this lesson, is where are the notes on your keyboard.
Piano and teaching is my passion, helping people even more. I'm here to help.
I agree with @Flabis-piano. I started at age 8 with one hand playing (by ear) Mary's Little Lamb, Twinkle Twinkle Little Star, London Bridge, Old Mac Donald, etc. as a kid growing up in the 80s, then progressed to two hands with the song "Right Here Waiting" by Richard Marx at age 15. I was also learning easier melody-focused songs that I would hear on the radio (e.g. Open Arms by Journey). I mainly focused on the melody (what I play with my right hand), but then later began focusing more on the bass (what I now play with my left hand) portion of the piano/keyboard. Combining these elements over time and practicing daily, I began to add other songs: The Dance by Garth Brooks, Right Now by Van Halen featuring Sammy Hagar, Separate Ways by Journey, In the Air Tonight by Phil Collins, Faithfully by Journey, and many others. Now, I've added more than 100 songs like Purple Rain by Prince and the Revolution, Sound of Silence by Paul Simon (performed by Disturbed), film scores, theme music, and trance/techno/electronic dance music. Being a percussionist in my high school's marching band and learning the 13 drum rudiments helped to develop playing rhythmically with my left hand, and with improved rhythm precision for both hands. After all, without rhythm, how is it a song? A work-around that I have used when I'm struggling to nail down the chord progressions (I never learned music theory) is to listen to the bassline in the song. It makes it easier for me to learn difficult chord progressions to listen to the bass portion of the song. Of course I have dedicated a large portion of my personal life to playing by ear as what I believe is a true gift from God that I have yet to master after 4 decades of playing music. I am not a live performer and I never have been with the exception of playing snare drums in the marching band. I play music because I simply enjoy it as a hobby. I have plenty of reasons to play so I have continued to do so for over 42 years, and I'd say that my progression has greatly improved from that of my 8-year-old youth. I am not a professional, and I do not know how to read music other than for snare drums and bass drums. Although I cannot say that everyone possesses the same kind of passion that I have for playing music, I will say to you never give up, and believe in yourself. Practice 30 minutes per day. Don't cheat yourself by not practicing; you'll likely progress faster if you're truly enjoying and interested in what you're learning and accomplishing. The more you play, the more you'll learn and that will eventually become second nature to you through improved hand-eye coordination as well as increased muscle memory. Above all else, just have fun playing music, and let the best of your music playing grow each and every day that you can dedicate your time and energy to it. That last statement is something that I learned later in life, and I wish I had learned it and adopted it decades ago. Best of luck and success!
Belle reprise fidèle à l'esprit de cette version. Joyeux Réveillon sur votre 31. clode54
Amazing!
❤ i have no words for it... A W E S O M E !!!!! i get goose bumps ;) damn, why are all the great pieces so damn difficult to learn;) it sounds so fantastic ....
J adore quand est ce que vous faites ce morceau en tuto ?
Very Good
I need to get the sheet music
Could you also post sheets?
can you play for me sound of invisible waters by Deuter ? it is so amazing piece
0:08
Uugh, the smoke effects are so annoying
Supposed to be cool looking, but unnecessary and gets in the way of what you're concentrating on.
Superb!
Dear . If you can change into "C" chords even better for me to learn. Cheers
🤣🤣🤣
Why do you use 100 colors, to make it difficult to learn?
I like your video, but too hard to see the dropping bars. If you can stop using the smoked effect will be great, thanks
Noted
You can download the midi file and use it with Synthesia , it will be easier
Thank you for saying this, whole heartedly agree 😅
This arrangement is very nice. But I downloaded the sheet and I wonder: why didn't you use eight notes instead of quarter notes in the whole score? It makes it difficult to read and the score ends to be 7 pages long! It's a shame, because we miss the rythm and the variations of this beautiful song.
Good question. A sheet music with quarters notes is usually easier to read , or at least looks easier. If you prefer 1/8 notes I can edit the score for you, send me an email so I can send you the new score
Je réalise que votre site est en français et que vous parlez donc sûrement cette langue 😅
Je comprends, c'est vrai que les débutants auront peut-être moins de mal à déchiffrer une partition avec des noires, mais en tant que joueuse régulière je suis beaucoup plus à l'aise avec les croches.
Ce serait vraiment super d'avoir la partition réadaptée, merci beaucoup ! Est-ce que je vous contacte via le formulaire sur votre site ?
@@roxanet.3352 oui
How do you get this background on that piano
I use Logic Pro , finalcut, Synthesia, QuickTime, ...
@@Flabis-piano thank you
I want to buy the sheets, but I do not see a key signature in the preview. Do the sheets match your playing?
The link to my sheet music is in the description, on my website you can see the first page and the key signature : with 3#. While I ‘ve recorded this video, I was playing by ear and I’ve edited the sheet music based on this performance, so it’s in the same key but I’ve corrected the « offbeat » mistakes to fit perfectly to the original version from Disturbed.
So fucking good
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻❤️
nice video.💙💙💜🤎💚
nice video. buy the notes on sheets. Not hard to learn and sound great :)
Olá tudo bem? Pode me passar a partitura?
tudo está na descrição abaixo do vídeo
@flabis66 Would purchasing the sheet music from you be an option please?
Tanya Kopel oh no, I’m sorry, I played this one so bad that it’s impossible to write the sheet music. I didn’t respect any rhythm’s rules. I have a midi file that you can import in any score editor , see the notes I played , but the rhythm is unreadable
@@Flabis-piano The rhythm was off lol, but I don't care. It's a great cover and I can always tweak the rhythm. I'm teaching myself piano and this is in the ballpark of what I can handle right now and being one of my favorite songs I was super excited to come across your video! I'll work with the midi file then. Thank you so much!
Tanya Kopel can you contact me via my website , don’t share your email address here
@@Flabis-piano Just did. Thanks!
Do you have the piano sheet? I want to buy it. I can’t learn wirh the videos. Need the sheet🥴
Yes, follow the link in the description
Anywhere I can print the music? I think the version I have it different. I like this one better
Thé link to the sheet music is in the video and in the description
@Flabis somewhere I don't have to pay for it. I just want to compare it to what I have. Not be sold and give my payment info out to some site for a sheet of music.
@@markgardner2947 it takes time to create an arrangement and edit the sheet music, and I have to pay the copyright to distribute it. I don’t win anything on it. Downloading free sheet music is illegal.
@@Flabis-piano I'm just trying to compare it to what I have. I said that. But nice bit about it being illegal. Thanks.
@@markgardner2947 the link to view the full sheet music for FREE is also in the description . It’s called Tutorial with scrolling sheet music . I don’t know what I can do more.
Which brand and model is the piano??
A Korg Kronos 2. Read description for more info about which sound I used
I wish the singing wasn’t interpreted into the piano notes. It makes it a bit muddled
This version was not intended to sing along. I made another version if you want to sing
not original key
it is in the same key as Disturbed as mentioned in the title
@@Flabis-piano no its not. In original no melod of sing. Only Instruments plc
@@Kajatan78 I played in the same key as this video: ruclips.net/video/u9Dg-g7t2l4/видео.html, their official video on their channel.
@@Flabis-piano hi, i do not agree. The singing melody ist never played on the Piano. And because you played the vocal melody, you missed some of the Piano Melodie of the original.
Without a Question you played a nice one. But i search one original without vocal melody.
I am not professionell and I do not know why almost everyone does with vocal melody.
@@Kajatan78 it’s a piano cover and I tried to render my feelings of the song. If you want only the backing track, look for a karaoke version. It’s only repetition of a simple chord progressions , nothing funny to play if you don’t sing.
Anyway, the piano part is exactly in the same key .
