It's quite the mystery who Elise really was, but through this piece she will be remembered forever. ♫ Sheet Music (Beethoven - Für Elise): tinyurl.com/yxtv6zj3 * * Affiliate Link
Heard it was one of his students he fell in love with. He composed the beginning easy, so she could learn it fast. After she declined his proposal he said fuck this and made the rest of the piece so hard that she could never finish it without his teaching.
you know the difficult part at 1:03? there's actually a story behind that beethoven made this for a student he loved, named therese, who wasn't really the best piano player - she was mediocre, at best. he made it so easy that she could play it and also impress people which is why it seems so easy up until the 1:03 mark because beethoven found out she was engaged to another man. he pretty much made that part so she could never play it. he proposed to her once & was rejected so rip EDIT: the reason why it's named "elise" & not "therese" probably refers to elisabeth roeckel. she had a flirty relationship w/ beethoven, so he probably renamed it for her because he didn't want to remember therese anymore
The name “Elise” is because the translation from German to English and other languages. That’s one theory of why is called Für Elise instead of Für Therese
The easy part is overplayed because it's used by every single piano beginner, but the hard parts aren't as much overplayed since people skip it to play other songs after learning the easy part
When Beethoven passed away, he was buried in a churchyard. A couple days later, the town drunk was walking through the cemetery and heard some strange noise coming from the area where Beethoven was buried. Terrified, the drunk ran and got the priest to come and listen to it. The priest bent close to the grave and heard some faint, unrecognizable music coming from the grave. Frightened, the priest ran and got the town magistrate. When the magistrate arrived, he bent his ear to the grave, listened for a moment, and said, "Ah, yes, that's Beethoven's Ninth Symphony, being played backwards." He listened a while longer, and said, "There's the Eighth Symphony, and it's backwards, too. Most puzzling." So the magistrate kept listening; "There's the Seventh... the Sixth... the Fifth..." Suddenly the realization of what was happening dawned on the magistrate; he stood up and announced to the crowd that had gathered in the cemetery, "My fellow citizens, there's nothing to worry about. It's just Beethoven decomposing."
The songs starts beautifully then shifts in a violent rage of madness, eventually coming back to the fray only to end with everlasting resentment. It's beautiful
I think this piece is too easy) I'm sure that I can play this after two weeks of hard training) Maybe I might make video about it:) (I'm from Russia, sorry, if in this text I have some mistakes)))):)
I heard this song when I was 7 years old cuz my grandma would always play it on her record player, fell in love with the piano and I can play by ear this is the one song I’ve wanted to be able to play fully thru
Mine too, well, my second favorite piece, my first one is super mario 3d world a boss aproaches, but I decided to name a kitten I am going to get very soon : Ludwig von Koopa
Very good tutorial! I learned the first part of this back in eighth grade (I’m in college now) when I quit piano lessons, but somehow the part up to where it gets funky stuck with me as muscle memory. Finally learning to play the whole thing after all this time, and you’re a great help!
To be honest, I'm not going to lie. 1:50 till the end part took me only 3 days of practicing (not more than 3 hours at total), For the 1:03 it took me a whole month (maybe around 10 hours). This was the first song I've ever mastered and my first song. I finished it a year ago and i only had 4 months experience and all of that went into fur Elise, it's beautiful that i have moved on into piano, and i felt like i was giving up into that part and i never gave up and finished it off. So everyone never give up and achieve your dreams! Have a beautiful day
@Stephanie Alfaro learn the whole thing. Everyone who's ever touched a piano can play the easy parts, and it's anoying when soleone plays just that. Stand out by learning the whole thing :)
Beethoven: Hey Therese! I love you and so I can show it, you can play this easy piece to impress people! Therese: Sorry but, I’ve already got a boyfriend Beethoven:...ok... Beethoven: 1:03 Therese: o-o Beethoven: Biatch!!!
A simple piece, but beautiful. The way the melody flows elegantly from and to each section: it really, to me, is one of the best pieces ever composed, even if it is simple. My favorite pieces are: Fantasie Impromptu, Für Elise, Rondo Alla Turca, and Rondo e Caprio. My favorite composers: Beethoven > Chopin > Mozart > Liszt > Bach
what about the 3rd liebestraum from liszt ? :D I totally agree with your choices from Beethoven's works but Beethoven's sonatas are in my opinion the very Best work for piano solo ! Love it !
I just got my keyboard and can u imagine the horror on my face thinking every pianist ever figures out how to play this mostly. Lil did Ik the easy version also exists🤦♀️
oMG I CRIED WHEN I WAS a little kid i had this toy that played this song i love it and its so depressing it makes my heart dwelm i have found it i was looking for it everywhere thank you LORD!
MatthewBruh13 here after i have mastered the song, both are quite easy once you memorize how to play them, just practice and youll be good in an hour or two
Ok so I am not the only one on sttrugle to learn a song but when you learn it it’s the easiest thing ever (sorry for my english I am french and I am 13 years old lmao)
Funny story: When I was nine I started taking piano lessons. When I got there for the first time my teacher asked me if there were any specific songs I wanted to learn. I told him that I wanted to learn für elise. And so I did. I could play this song before I could play twinkle twinkle little star haha
LlamaKittens lol its pretty funny. this was my first real song as well. my mom used to play it to me as a lullaby, and when I first was able to complete the piece for myself, the amount of joy I felt was unparalleled to anything else.
LlamaKittens Same! The first songs I ever learned were Canon in D and Für Elise, and now I'm finally learning Twinkle Twinkle Little Star. Granted, it's Mozart's Twinkle Twinkle Little Star I'm learning! Not too simple...
I first tried to learn Für Elise 5 years ago, when I was the epitome of a beginner; I remember thinking that my hands were too small for piano and that I'd never be able to play Beethoven. I can now play half of this video with pedals and dynamics within 2 weeks. While I know that Für Elise is considered a simple musical piece when compared to Paganini and other composer's works, I am really thankful that I stuck with piano!
you don't use the tip of your fingers? you're supposed to keep it arched. also, reddit users, please don't come for me because i get the joke, it's just not very funny.
Scott Frederick no? He was born in 1770 and in about the year 1800 his hearing started to decrease. From 1812 his hearing got even worse and in 1827 he died.
HJtH3G what the heck is wrong with you? did I insult him or something? I think you are the moron of us two. I'm just clarifying that we have different opinions. please stfu and gtfo
Victor Luigi Imagine the Struggle , we have Little Pump and Ed Sheeran. Much more People need to listen to the Grand Master like Beethoven , Mozart , Schubert , Brahms , Chopin and way way more.
Composing and creating are much harder than playing. That’s why them old school European musicians were so highly rated. Always imitated but never duplicated. It really takes talent to pull this kinda shit off in real life. I mean, hard work alone just ain’t gonna cut it.
@@GVZKeys I think the point you’re missing is back then there was no technology, just education being passed down, with technique rarely being found in poorer neighborhoods. There was no RUclips, there was no Synthesia, no digital MIDI where you could SEE where the keys that had to be played were and slow them down. You had to be a master. There’s a reason why pianos are viewed as a sign of elegance, and nobility. You had to climb in order to learn, and even then had to steal techniques in the form of viewing and memorizing, almost everyone had to do so back then.
i remember that my grand grandma used to play this song when i was little, i loved it so much that i started playing piano. This song reminds me of her and im learning it right now
fun story about fur elise: beethoven wrote the first part to be easy because he was in love with one of his beginner students, the woman he wrote it for. he had proposed to her but she turned him down so he wrote the second part to be more difficult so she could never play it
This is 2019 and I've just realized how much I really love the piano especially Beethoven and wish my parents had put me in musical class and sign me up for piano lessons..😩
Why is everyone saying this is hard? It is actually quite easy. You just have to remember the combination of the notes. And try to play it slowly before playing it fast. Do not give up! Keep trying, get used to it and master it!
you guys should watch one of these songs. -Franz Liszt: Hungarian rhapsody no.2 - -Franz Liszt: La Campanella - -Frederic Chopin: Polonaise heroic - -Frederic Chopin: Minute waltz - all are good -Frederic Chopin: winter wind - really good -Ludwig van Beethoven: Rage over a lost penny - -Frederic Chopin: Opus 9 no 2 - -Frederic Chopin: Opus 66 Fantaisie-Impromptu -
About three years ago my music teacher said that if someone can play Für Elise full, she/he gets a prize. I trained for maybe about a month this song and played it perfectly. When I played it to my teacher he said that I suck and I should not never anymore play piano. I was 12 years old when this happened
breaktherocks Maybe he really was jealous because when he gave the challenge to our class, he said that he himself can't play it full. After that what he said after I played this song, I quit piano playing for 2 years but then with help of my friends (who all saw how hard I cried after that teacher broke my heart) I started playing again. Now I've been playing a bit over half year after that. + extra to you too for having most lovely Lavi as a profile pic.
I know how its feels, my last elementary school sucks Why it sucks? getting bullyed, no best competition, and if something wrong everyone chose me as the who felt wrong -_- and now i never see them and i far from them and my school cool now :D
UntoldAnimations "Only 1800's kids" you obviously know about all the kids who go on 90's or 80's music videos and say "Only 90's/80's kids appreciate this" and "i hate modern music" Well i was doing a spinoff of that but saying "1800's kids" makes is into a joke because obviously theres really not any 1800's kids. There you go. I explained the joke for you. I should feel terrible about posting a joke on youtube comments? Ok well lets turn this around, you should feel terrible about not understanding an obvious joke. Sound better? Sorry if my reply makes you upset to the point where you have to try to prove me wrong or anything. If that comes to the case then ill be awaiting a response. Tchüße!
I'm not sure if I have a problem here, but I think I'm only going to be able to play this piece till 1:02 and I the reason for me is this. In my mind, when I am learning this piece, from the start till 1:02, you left and right hand are never playing over one another, but to spontaneously use both hands to play two different melodies is something I really cant do, does anybody else experience this? It's like combining two separate sounds as one, and I find it impossible.
Learn each hand separately first. Make sure you are extremely confident with each hand and then very slowly try to play them at the same time. Work out what each hand should be playing in relation to the other and with practice you'll find that it is not as hard as it seems.
@@someone8183 commenting "XD" or "I'm dying" is pointless because it's obvious that a joke should be funny. These comments do not introduce anything interesting. Like is seriously enough if you like the joke but don't know what to say. Sorry, I just don't understand these comments
Beethoven literally composed and played it while he was hard of hearing And here we are complaining of broken fingers and mental instability lol Cuz same

@@ArtisticAlly123 Therese was a student of Beethoven and he composed this song to her because he really liked her and she wasn't the best piano player so Beethoven made this peace easy.... till the middle part. That's when Beethoven found out Therese was engaged to someone else so he made it hard so she could never play it.
Some tips Don't waste time on the first, or main movement. Learn it, and practice the 2nd and 3rd. They are much harder and require more skill and hand movement, especially the end of the second movement. If you're not a person to read the paper, and memorizes the song, look at the right hand. Left is pretty easy and repetitive once you learn the whole song, and the right hand requires lots of stretches in certain parts. In the third movement, alternate the fingers in the left hand when only one key is being played. Don't play A with one finger, use the first three. The music will sound more fluid and actually makes it easier once you master it.
I remember when I used to live with my mom as a kid whenever I played on the Wii or N64 my older brother would play this song on the piano those were some good times...
I learned to 1:02 at home, did not took very long. My piano teacher tried to learn me 3 more seconds of it, did not come any further, and I tried for weeks..
how long it took for you to get the first part at this video speed....? im going to learn piano...with synthesia.... : ) (shame is i dont have the second part with the fingers notation and i will have to figure it out i guess...and it can take forever...)
I played very slow at the start, like one second for every note change. I played approximately 2-3 hours per day in one week. Thereafter, I could play as the speed in this video :) It is only about training.
and for the fast part with all those chords and all (1:02 onwards)...how long it took? u got it in the end or u gave up? i guess its the same process as learning first part....but it will just take longer right? : ) im 38 im sure my brain doesnt work like kids here who say they learned the whole thing in a couple of days (maybe trolls?)
thanks for the answers , take it as fun...when its so difficult specially when is full of the comments saying how easy it is !!! you could mark it like your new years eve resolution !!! dont give up ! im going to learn this whole thing !! even if it takes me 1 fucking year to play it at a descent speed / accuracy !
It's quite the mystery who Elise really was, but through this piece she will be remembered forever.

Agreed! ^^
I think it was one of his students

@PianoMusicbros Elise is the nickname of Therese Malfatti with whom Beethoven had crush
Never thought about that
you know the difficult part at 1:03? there's actually a story behind that
beethoven made this for a student he loved, named therese, who wasn't really the best piano player - she was mediocre, at best. he made it so easy that she could play it and also impress people which is why it seems so easy up until the 1:03 mark
because beethoven found out she was engaged to another man. he pretty much made that part so she could never play it. he proposed to her once & was rejected so rip
EDIT: the reason why it's named "elise" & not "therese" probably refers to elisabeth roeckel. she had a flirty relationship w/ beethoven, so he probably renamed it for her because he didn't want to remember therese anymore
Or maybe it's Elise because it rhymes and it was his student so it mightve been suspicious
Chrissy Lugo 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
That’s the level of petty I aspire to have😂😂
The name “Elise” is because the translation from German to English and other languages. That’s one theory of why is called Für Elise instead of Für Therese
Lonely Person lmao ikr
This piece is just REALLY overplayed.
That's why people usually don't notice what a masterpiece this is.
Aryaman - Anime on Piano that makes 0 sense. It's overplayed because so many people appreciate it's musicality.
@@bakedspade Nah, its just a very common beginner piece.
I played it aswell when I was a beginner, and I cant listen to it anymore. Its so annoying :/
The easy part is overplayed because it's used by every single piano beginner, but the hard parts aren't as much overplayed since people skip it to play other songs after learning the easy part
Yes
this piece is my doorbell. really consumes the music.
If only Therese wasn’t engaged and married Beethoven. Maybe then I’d actually be able to play the full song
Me Dogerty hahahaa
It‘s a PIECE!
Yep it would have been easier
LMAO
Well i can😐😂
2:21 Smoothest transition in classical music history

This is actually the only part in the song that does not sound natural at all.
you all would be correct
I came to that part

And the guy was deaf. What an injustice.
Yep
he´s got deaf when he gots old, but some of his biggest succeses was when he was deaf :P
hawkamania no he was in his 20s
Scott Frederick
no? He was born in 1770 and in about the year 1800 his hearing started to
decrease. From 1812 his hearing got even worse and in 1827 he died.
testiou ele morreu cedo!
is this considered as the best piano song ever created?
nah
AMZ well, for me, it's the best piece of music ever created :D
Yakine BikeRace I think the best music ever created is the 3rd movement of apassionata sonata from beethoven
malo bastianelli that's your opinion :)
HJtH3G what the heck is wrong with you? did I insult him or something? I think you are the moron of us two. I'm just clarifying that we have different opinions. please stfu and gtfo
For me, Für Elise is a masterpiece, nobody on life can die before listen to this song
Victor Luigi Imagine the Struggle , we have Little Pump and Ed Sheeran. Much more People need to listen to the Grand Master like Beethoven , Mozart , Schubert , Brahms , Chopin and way way more.
Shit, does that mean I’m gonna because of a song?
daniel busam agreed. This generation has songs which are as valuable as trash
daniel busam You didn't just put ed and pump on the same lvl, did you?
daniel busam you are just an old head
Why is this the best sounding Fur Elise I've ever heard on RUclips?
Composing and creating are much harder than playing. That’s why them old school European musicians were so highly rated. Always imitated but never duplicated. It really takes talent to pull this kinda shit off in real life. I mean, hard work alone just ain’t gonna cut it.
i like how you say old school but school wasnt even invented back then
@@iamhappythingy9258 u are stupid..
He was deaf tho
Have you heard of Fruit Loops music software ? Lol
@@GVZKeys I think the point you’re missing is back then there was no technology, just education being passed down, with technique rarely being found in poorer neighborhoods. There was no RUclips, there was no Synthesia, no digital MIDI where you could SEE where the keys that had to be played were and slow them down. You had to be a master. There’s a reason why pianos are viewed as a sign of elegance, and nobility. You had to climb in order to learn, and even then had to steal techniques in the form of viewing and memorizing, almost everyone had to do so back then.
one of the easiest and more beautiful songs out there for beginners :)
wow i have been playing it wrong all this time... i was using my left WAY too much. this actually helped me very much, thanks.
if u played the song like this at a competition, youd probably get 60/100
wallflowers ok.
i remember that my grand grandma used to play this song when i was little, i loved it so much that i started playing piano. This song reminds me of her and im learning it right now
I can play until 0:00 because i don't play the piano
i can play until 2:52 :(
badgerboi i can't get rid of the second name
Идти в жопу
I can only play to 0:25 at the moment (although I will keep on practicing) but slow
Lilgamerdude_23 it's really easy once you learn it very well just keep practicing knowing you're getting better everyday
fun story about fur elise: beethoven wrote the first part to be easy because he was in love with one of his beginner students, the woman he wrote it for. he had proposed to her but she turned him down so he wrote the second part to be more difficult so she could never play it
if this is true this is the ultimate petty move and i respect it
I can play until 1:02 xD
Lol same dude. I go downhill after that
Logans Lucky Cluckers OMG SAME!
Logans Lucky Cluckers Yeah, fuck the last part!!
Sabrina Wilson
Woo!
Logans Lucky Cluckers HAHA I KNOW TILL 1:50
This is 2019 and I've just realized how much I really love the piano especially Beethoven and wish my parents had put me in musical class and sign me up for piano lessons..😩
Why is everyone saying this is hard? It is actually quite easy. You just have to remember the combination of the notes. And try to play it slowly before playing it fast. Do not give up! Keep trying, get used to it and master it!
TotallyNotObama i totally agree it’s actually pretty easy. i learned it in a course of a month..
I learned it in a course of two years to finish the song
We want you to upload a fuckn video where you play this Song with a camera
Juan González ok
Jared Queja bro Im sorry if u got offended but i was taking with the other guy Dayana*
its actually pretty simple (except some parts)
Yeah just between 0:00-2:53 are the worst
:D yeah lol
+quick shot ha!
First minute is easy and the rest that's the same as it
Allah ho Anbar fuck
that awkward moment when you want a quiet song to enjoy a beautiful night. and the advertisment is obnoxious as fuck
This happens to me on Pandora

i suggest for you to play it on synthesia aka synthesis
I stopped learning piano because the middle part of this piece XD
the middle part is the most fun one! Even though it's hard as hell (it took me half a year of practising almost every day to get it perfectly...)
+AwesomePineapple but it is fun and really that long? o.o
The piece took me 3 lessons each 45 minutes and then i played those parts like for 2 weeks at home c:
Lets Splash It's very complicated and fast that I couldn't just do it. I'm not gifted in Piano XD
Oh ok ^^ For how long do you play now? (playing for 2 and a half years now)
After 5 months I succeeded this
took me 1 hour
TheHolyBuster1 weird flex but ok 😔
It took me 2 days...
@@ilianastenovitch wait wut
@@ilianastenovitch only 3-4 hours for the whole song???
That.....was.....awesome! 👏👏👏👏👏👏 Totally perfection I mean who doesn't love music it's great!
About three years ago my music teacher said that if someone can play Für Elise full, she/he gets a prize. I trained for maybe about a month this song and played it perfectly. When I played it to my teacher he said that I suck and I should not never anymore play piano. I was 12 years old when this happened
Well then your teacher either was jealous or had a stick up his ass. Or both. + Extra points for having Sebas as a profile pic.
breaktherocks Maybe he really was jealous because when he gave the challenge to our class, he said that he himself can't play it full. After that what he said after I played this song, I quit piano playing for 2 years but then with help of my friends (who all saw how hard I cried after that teacher broke my heart) I started playing again. Now I've been playing a bit over half year after that. + extra to you too for having most lovely Lavi as a profile pic.
what the hell is wrong with her? well THAT'S what i call "kid's encouragement"...
2 years ago i won piano match at my school and i got 1st place xD
with this song ofc
Spook, you're on the wrong comment section.
I can plays this song very well but I never have gotten in a compition ☹️️ because my school sucks and doesn't do anything cool
I know how its feels, my last elementary school sucks
Why it sucks?
getting bullyed, no best competition, and if something wrong everyone chose me as the who felt wrong -_-
and now i never see them and i far from them and my school cool now :D
it sucks because you swallow
Spookwagen?
I hate my generation so much, only 1800's kids will understand how great this is.
Stop acting like we don't. You're not special for liking classical music.
UntoldAnimations "Only 1800's kids will understand" I'm guessing that joke flew right over your head?
Latpip How is that a joke? Even is it was, that's a crappy joke and you should feel terrible.
UntoldAnimations "Only 1800's kids" you obviously know about all the kids who go on 90's or 80's music videos and say "Only 90's/80's kids appreciate this" and "i hate modern music" Well i was doing a spinoff of that but saying "1800's kids" makes is into a joke because obviously theres really not any 1800's kids. There you go. I explained the joke for you. I should feel terrible about posting a joke on youtube comments? Ok well lets turn this around, you should feel terrible about not understanding an obvious joke. Sound better? Sorry if my reply makes you upset to the point where you have to try to prove me wrong or anything. If that comes to the case then ill be awaiting a response. Tchüße!
I laughed at the joke
Nice tutorial bro!
This song is so relaxing 😌😌 does it relax anyone else or only me?
every time I'm frustrated, playing this song relaxes me and calms me down :) I'll never get tired of it
it relaxes me too
Soo much me

A Person You can do it, I believe in you
my first ever piano song took me 2 months
Raad Jiffri not bad
Fun fact: Beethoven made this song for a special person named Elise. That's why it's called "Fur Elise" because it is "Fur" Elise

I'm not sure if I have a problem here, but I think I'm only going to be able to play this piece till 1:02 and I the reason for me is this. In my mind, when I am learning this piece, from the start till 1:02, you left and right hand are never playing over one another, but to spontaneously use both hands to play two different melodies is something I really cant do, does anybody else experience this? It's like combining two separate sounds as one, and I find it impossible.
I think its basically called Hand Independence.
Learn each hand separately first. Make sure you are extremely confident with each hand and then very slowly try to play them at the same time. Work out what each hand should be playing in relation to the other and with practice you'll find that it is not as hard as it seems.
+trucker44 That's what I do to learn songs. It helps :)
+Mahmood S Same
Well, you have to learn each part slowly (really slowly) , to manage using both hands sepratly , then ,you can speed up!
This song is so easy in Piano Tiles :D
wirti94 so trueeeee
Then is the real one
Hahahaha

Well it’s not piano tiles 😂

@@artofvale_1122 almost, it’s the middle part that’s really hard to do. But, I can play it for the most part.
Welp, my names Elise. Where do we go from here Beethoven 😗😙
pookie pie his name is Ludwig van Beethoven by the way in case you didn't know, that's right Ludwig LUDWIG
are you angry
um...just so you know...he is dead... sorry...
Well he’s dead, and that’s necrophilia M’am
Oh my gosh, these comments are making me crack up
Thanks so much for this, I am attending a talent show at my school, and this piano piece is just AMAZING THANK YOUUU!
-Yes I liked my own comment UwU
Beethoven literally composed and played it while he was hard of hearing
And here we are complaining of broken fingers and mental instability lol
Cuz same
The transition at like 2:21 is so smooth I wanna cry
1- 0:00 Tema Normal

How can someone dislike that?!
P M stupid people exist
Therese made backup accounts....?
Coco the Guinea pig icecream whose “Therese”
Two words Bach, account
@@ArtisticAlly123 Therese was a student of Beethoven and he composed this song to her because he really liked her and she wasn't the best piano player so Beethoven made this peace easy.... till the middle part. That's when Beethoven found out Therese was engaged to someone else so he made it hard so she could never play it.
Which one is harder? 1:02 or 1:50?
1:02 just learn't this song recently :) definitely the hardest part imo
I learned this song as well recently and these parts are soo easy in comparison to 2:13
i wish i could play haha
DEFINITELY 1:02
Aleksa912 2:13 is easy tho
00:00: I can do this! This is easy!
1:02:............FUCK!
I agree
+CadenceHarmony omlll yasss my face was like wtf? oml i am going to take a year or so lmao
Some tips
Don't waste time on the first, or main movement. Learn it, and practice the 2nd and 3rd. They are much harder and require more skill and hand movement, especially the end of the second movement.
If you're not a person to read the paper, and memorizes the song, look at the right hand. Left is pretty easy and repetitive once you learn the whole song, and the right hand requires lots of stretches in certain parts.
In the third movement, alternate the fingers in the left hand when only one key is being played. Don't play A with one finger, use the first three. The music will sound more fluid and actually makes it easier once you master it.
Its actually really easy. Just try, look for tutorials if you need help.
lol keep trying😉
"PERFECT" SIMPLY AMAZING
my friend has to play this at a piano recital, i feel so bad for her 😂
ashley sophia but this piece is incredibly easy. It is a beginner piece, and if your friend is attending piano recitals, this should be no problem.
This piece is easy even for beginners but you need to play it slowly so you can play it quickly once you know all the part.
This piece actially isnt all hard
Except for maybe the part at 1:03
I remember when I used to live with my mom as a kid whenever I played on the Wii or N64 my older brother would play this song on the piano those were some good times...
I can feel the nostalgia from here 😢
I learned to 1:02 at home, did not took very long. My piano teacher tried to learn me 3 more seconds of it, did not come any further, and I tried for weeks..
how long it took for you to get the first part at this video speed....?
im going to learn piano...with synthesia....
: )
(shame is i dont have the second part with the fingers notation and i will have to figure it out i guess...and it can take forever...)
I played very slow at the start, like one second for every note change. I played approximately 2-3 hours per day in one week. Thereafter, I could play as the speed in this video :) It is only about training.
and for the fast part with all those chords and all (1:02 onwards)...how long it took? u got it in the end or u gave up?
i guess its the same process as learning first part....but it will just take longer right?
: )
im 38 im sure my brain doesnt work like kids here who say they learned the whole thing in a couple of days
(maybe trolls?)
Yes I think it is the same process. I kinda lost the hope when I saw how hard it looked like, but I guess weakness of my will
thanks for the answers , take it as fun...when its so difficult specially when is full of the comments saying how easy it is !!! you could mark it like your new years eve resolution !!!
dont give up ! im going to learn this whole thing !! even if it takes me 1 fucking year to play it at a descent speed / accuracy !
I was in search of this song from many days😭finally I got this😭❤and now i am practicing playing this🔥
