"Linus and Lucy" is a popular instrumental jazz piece written by American jazz pianist Vince Guaraldi. The song was originally released on Guaraldi's album Jazz Impressions of A Boy Named Charlie Brown.

Alright so Ive noticed alot of people get frustrated with playing this song. I just bought my first piano about a month ago and being this has always been my favorite piano piece ever, I had to learn it first... yes I play other instruments but this is a unique style of playing for me as it may be for some of the frustrated folks out there regargless. This is a great instruction ^ but Ive noticed theres 2 ways of thinking when playing a piece like this. people who can play the base notes (left hand) and after a while not think about it and then they just throw the treble end (right hand) on top and bam they can play it. the other way of analyzing the piece is by picking every single movement apart that is made by both hands. essentially you will notice that there are notes that are played at the same time with right and left hand and then there are parts where they are not or "staggered" if you will. you need to be able to separate that in your brain slowly so that you can stop either hand from doing the wrong thing when you try to put them together. that is what makes it akward to play. but if you slow the piece down about 75% speed maybe even more, you can focus on every individual movement both hands make. once you can play it slow, practice. and the speed will come easily. I learned it in about a weeks worth of time and I can play it just like him ^. you can too. Slow is smooth smooth is fast and dont give up!
maybe you can show us how you play it on a video?
Great lesson! I had some of it, but this filled in the gaps. THANKS!
Awesome tutorial!! I am a guitar player and recently picked up piano/keyboard. I'm self taught at the moment and this video is great. I'll practice this portion this week, and work on the next part when I get this down. Thanks again brotha! :) Very cool and easily explained.
It's so freaking hard, Gosh!
Hey...I do an easier version on my channel.. Just play the left and right hands in unison rhythm in a few places and cut out some bass notes.. Most people will not notice the difference.
Yeah. My fingers are breaking.
This is my first time here, and you are not only a good piano player, but a good teacher. I'm glad I found you. The presentation is also very professional with the dual screen shots. Thanks
Awesome lessons! Best I've found so far. Thanks!
This is awesome. Excited to practice until I get it right ☺️
If you could ever make a video with the fingers mentioned I'd be so happy. I have this thing on super slow motion, but making out which fingers you used was still a bit tough for me.
*I LOVE THIS TUNE!!*
Amazing job teaching, thank you!
WOW! COOL! Because of this one lesson, I have subscribed to this channel! I always wanted to learn to play the piano, and who know, I may just learn yet! Being 42, I hope it isn't to late to show this "old dog" some new tricks! Great video!
Sweet this the only cover-tune I am going to learn … ☮🔥
This layout is very different from the usual Pianote Layout. I prefer seeing the keyboard with the notes and chords written out on the screen. That format is very helpful when trying to learn a new song. It seems that your web address is also different.
Thanks for sharing! Awesome tutorial :)
love your lesson :D
why would somebody "dislike" this vid? its spot on
Really glad to see this. Thanks!! Left hand is surprisingly tricky, which is why I cam here...glad I'm not the only one 🙂
this really is a brilliant sounding song
Thanks it helped a little!!!
im learning for sure i love it haha
Woooahhh!! Tons if button mashing!!!
whats he pressing i cant tell
A Flat/G Sharp, D Sharp/E Flat, the next up G Sharp (repeat once more)
A Flat/G Sharp, D Sharp/E Flat, F.
In case you don't know what positions these are in, I'll put it like this:
The black keys look like this:
123 45 678
White keys look like this (Although I shouldn't be modeling it like this because I'm replacing actual notes with these model numbers when the notes are also letters)
ABCD|EFG|HIJK
so the model is
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
A B C D E F G H I J K
Play 3 5 7, 3 5 7
3 5 H 3 5 H
This probably could have been a lot easier to explain, but I'm terrible at explaining to begin with. I hope that you found clarification in this anyways.
Awesome Thank you
Awesome now I just need to practice that for 2hours so I can get it down!!
I was new to piano too. I learned this in under a year. It took about a month to learn.
This helped!
This is so cool
I just CAN"T seem to out both hands together!! Any advice??
got your advice yet? (:
well played!
Thankks!! wish ou would have done that solo at the end though
Thanxs. :)
I have tiny hands, so this song will be hard to play. But I will learn! And I will use your videos to help me learn!
did notice on your site itself you have a print out of this lesson
Awesome tutorial!I'm 12, and I have trouble reaching my left hand with all the notes, any suggestions?
so harddddd
Nice! so yes the bass line does what you show as the intro but when he begins the melody the bass line is played somewhat differently...hard to explain but its not exactly the same as the intro which is why some would have a hard time playing it. if done the way its actually played its not that hard.
You have GIANT hands!! :D
GREAT VIDEO BRO!!!!!!!!!!
He sucked
and you swallowed
wow!!!
what happens if you have small kind of hands and your playing the 1st part with your left hand because im having trouble with stretching my fingers to play the notes and do them fast
i need to learn it in 1 WEEK
If I could only play one song on the piano....it would be this one!
@jcmoove for me it's either go fast or don't go at all. i CANNOT SLOW DOWN
what about the breakdown part? :P
the easy way to play this song, at parts like the right hand plays a flat b flat c c bflat a flat,,, play the left hand in unison rhythm, (and cut out a few bass notes,,,),,,, and then go back to the intro left hand, ambidextrous is good practice but it is more fun to play it, ,,,,the way i do it, i think it is more syncopated
Man I love this song! Wish I was good enough to play it spent 4 years of my life and can never get past the opening cause I have no rhythm and can't put the two hands together. It would make my dad and grandpa so happy if I could play this. But I'm a fucking failure who can't do anything. And I actually hoped I had a talent for piano. But I guess that's just what it was. Hope. Awesome tutorial though.
hahahaha
this is depressing man damn.
holy moly... you are Sooo hard on yourself. this is a tricky piece my man. i've been playing piano for years and teaching too. don't judge yourself by this piece. learn something easier and move up from there.
Stick with it. It takes a while. Instead of saying "I can't play it", say "I can't play it - YET!" Because you CAN play it, you just need more time.
Focus on the left hand for a long, long time. Get it to thepoint that your left hand can play it without thinking.
You can't do both hands until this happens, and it takes a LONG time.
Trust me, I spent the time - YEARs, actually - and can now play it. SO CAN YOU!!!
you're not a failure at all. you're human, just like everybody else...try playing songs that are easy and that you like..just remember: anything worth while, takes time! good luck and stay positive! \ m / \ m /
What is the name of the keyboard you're playing?
It's been a year, did you learn it yet?
where's the sheet music on the website???????????
what key is it in?
@croverby1 Hi, yeah it took me forever to find it. it was in the description of this youtube video ( /watch?v=-b2rs9PL3eg ). If you need help downloading ask me.
i actually learned this song without a tutorial.
duh hell you doing here then?
LOL
Well aren't you special...
hi, until you get Seinfeld's Man Hands,, you could just keep your right hand thumb on the E Flat, instead of starting on the C,,, that would give it a suspended sound, and most people will not notice the difference
@jyeshe108 pls help me i don't know where the sheet music is??? T-T
@Ivansky1 I have no idea. lol
It seems like there an extra note or two in your left hand once the melody kicks in.
WHat kind of Piano is that? I was wondering!
@jeffTHEbeastlyCHEF That isn't the whole song either. There is a latin part in the middle and at the end. Listen to the original.
this is a gud tutor i an see y its number 1
Ya got one year down, hows it goin?
@Ivansky1 i'm guessing some commented about something he was talking about. lol
can someone post the notes here? he doesn't say them all..
i can do the parts so well individually, but when i try to put them together, i fall apart ):
I wish I learned it...:(
I followed sheet music very very slowly and could suddenly play both hands together.
I can play this song!
I mean, without playing the video, it's not in the title or description
at 5:27, replace that B with an Eb. Other than that, this sounds good!
Muthaphuckka yes,is wrong.right hand plays Eb Ab,Eb Bb,C Ab,Eb Bb when left in B.look at "linus e lucy piano lessons" with Benoit
@Brontobyte Well your comment just looked really weird just sitting there with no idea to who it was for.
Wow, piece of cake. I thought it would be harder.
I found the sheet music! You have to make an account of use your Facebook login though...kind of annoying
comment if you want it (can't post links)
thumbs up :)
COOL im 49 YEARS and ive been taking for 45 years good song go call of duty!
@Brontobyte Who the hell are you talking to???
I my fingers are too small this was supposed to be my talent show song😭
@xalicia12x just practice, it wont happen overnight, it took me a year and a half to master this
@SteevDragon67 just pratice hard everday..by the time you 50 which is still pretty young in the older age. it will be a great rewarding experience..to easily boost your skills quiker.get those classical repeative finger excercises books. =)
it took me a month
@JasperKeller just go really slow in the beginning
on the right hand i can't really tell which key he's playing. he's going a little too fast =/
Does anyone else with small hands find this incredible difficult?
@amberbieber666666 if its not impossible to reach it, just keep practicing and soon the movement will be easier and it will be easier and more natural feeling to reach for the notes
That's what I said
definite five but needs to show notes better most of your viewers are on phones. smaller screens make poorer pix also notes like bflat bflat bflat ECT sound same maybe a list of notes similar to easy play on picture screen. I am giving you a five.
@kitkat1320 i sent it to you in a message, you need to make an account on the website or use your facebook login stuff like i did
I tried to follow your tutorial. You must be aimed at the more experience. Impossible for me to follow you. I can't play this.
keys on top are blurry. Very challenging for a beginner.
So you know what the first intro notes are I cant tell
@xalicia12x hey, try it the way i do it on my channel
The video quality is horrible, I can't see half the notes you're pressing. I wish it were easier to see, but thanks for the effort.
You must be teaching people who already can play the song. Terrible instruction.
what else could u want from a tutorial, its very thorough
i cant tell what your pushing
@LeevidPiano
nah i completely disagree with this. if you want only positive comments, you're not getting the truth.
You might want to mention here that Vince Guaraldi wrote this song. It's nowhere to be seen...
The
you finger won't let me see the keys that your striking early and the video is blurry. Please correct that.
I feel like Lucy's "boyfriend"
it isn't swung and when you tried to demonstrate it you didn't even swing it
This is so old
@xalicia12x A t-rex can't even reach the piano.
I can't see the keys that you are playing at all. Maybe you shouldn't call this a tutorial. It's showing off, not showing.
20 people are blockheads!
This isn't the whole song.
