Debussy - Clair de Lune | Played on an Out of Tune Piano
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 10 сен 2024
- Since Covid came along, I've had ample time to practice piano again. This is my three-month completion video of Clair de Lune. I made a few mistakes and I am still slow in a couple areas, but I still hope you enjoyed this playthrough DC al Fine.
As cliche as it may sound, Clair de Lune has always been one of my favorite songs. I had thought about learning it in the past, but I was scared away after watching @Rousseau's playthrough. It was so fast, complicated, and looked well beyond my skill level. When I started learning my goal was to finish the first section. I took it one note at a time and was slowly able to piece it together. In a couple days I finished the first section and decided to keep going. The learning process became addictive. Every morning when I woke up I would practice for an hour or two, typically the exact same chord progression over and over again until my hand got tired or I got too frustrated. This piece is important to me because it showed me that if I set my mind to something new, I can learn it. I have had no previous training or piano lessons prior. I can't read music and I most certainly didn't know what an arpeggio was before this. I hope you enjoyed this piece. Let me know what I should learn next. Maybe I will make another cover, hopefully with a piano that's actually in tune.
out of tuned piano just adds so much more to the music and in a way to describe it is basically playing under the sea. amazing cover btw
Haha thank you. I never thought of it like that!
Write that down....

How and where can I hear more out of tune piano?
I love untuned piano music. It just makes it sound… nostalgic? Just. Familiar in a way. Like those photos with nobody in them of playgrounds or childrens play areas. Familiar. But like something is missing, like how that memory will never be the same from when you first had it. Like when you laugh a lot about a joke but when you hear it again you dont laugh. Like the humor is missing,
I get you .. cant explain the feeling
So untuned piano sounds superliminal? I have never heard that before... thats an interesting way to describe untuned piano. Oh, superliminal is the thing you describe, its like a bride between something... like something is missing, its a really popular way of thinking abotu photography, its often referred in the backrooms, Where something feels just off but yet famillar. Search it up its really cool
Not superliminal, my bad its just liminal. Liminal Spaces
Thats what they are called, I get how this could be felt as a liminal feeling ig?
@@golden10gaming43 yuhh thats what j was thinking of i forgot thr word lol
@TheDogOfChaos fr
I would kill for a genre of piano like this… I don’t know what it might be called or if anyone would fully embrace it, yet, hearing the keys and strings holding near chaos while staying in melody has such a movement on me and in everything and everyone here.. it’s a perfect harmony of false harmonization. Thank you, for this piece of magic and wonder.
Very good
Yeah, I love it. It gives me a weird feeling of devastation and dread, while still sounding hopeful. Like something is falling apart, but still able to be put back together, if barely.
It's a weird feeling, but I love it. Music played on an out of tune piano completely changes the feeling and emotion, and I think the piano is the only instrument that can even pull it off. On most instruments, being out of tune means the all (or most) of the instrument is out of tune by the same amount, while on the piano every single note can be differently out of tune.
I think Lâche et Cassé would be good,it means Loose and Broken in French
Out of tune-tunes
microtonal music is the closest you can get to this actually, its similar
It’s like being distorted through a dream
Ahh it’s so cool :,)
I once heard this in the background of my dreams, it was may more out of tune and muffled. It's nice hearing it again
@Mylordes IT WAS AMAZIING 11/10 would do again
@@ghostierr7130js do the exact same thing those 2 years ago and youll get a similar dream
i have a weird obsession with out of tune pianos. they just sound very mystical
Same!
I wish this was a theme of its own
This is so well played and the out of tune piano adds so much to the music... i just cant help to love this interpretation
Thank you!!
An in tune piano can be made to sound like another.
An out of tune piano is unique, made from the environment it has been in. Just like us.
@Samuel Samuel congrats you invaded someone's privacy
@Samuel Samuel silencebot
The beauty of the composition and the skill of the performer outmatches the tonal abnormality.
I wish I could hear it uncompressed...
Thank you!

i cant really put into words how the end of this song feels out of tune other than a lucid dream you couldn’t control
it really is amazing how my mind floods with emotions and thoughts when listening to certain things, none of them enough to make me cry but just enough to feel sense of emptiness/dread.
You can’t have a lucid dream you can’t control
a lucid dream you cant control is called a dream..
just a dream. You can always control a lucid dream
@@weegie3343 I found it pretty poetic actually. It's like a good representation of eerieness of out of tune piano. It's like it's the thing but not quite. Same as lucid dream you cannot control, it's basically a dream but phrasing it in this way makes it sound more let's say 'out of tune'
@@mieszko99 well, you missed the entire point of my reply. well done!! 👏
looking out my window at 5am, seeing people walking by, the rain dripping down the window, the candle lit on the table next to the window and the moon shining through the trees while listening to this the best thing i have experienced in like- forever
I also remember when you wanted lessons but had no time for them. I am so glad you are getting to learn as an adult. I wish I learned how to read music but maybe I will try some RUclips tutorials now.
Yeah I wish I had lessons to develop skill wise. But I’m happy that I can pick what songs I want to learn regardless of skill level. I don’t have to do the grade system
Ngl first time around I never saw music, just read.
It makes me feel like I’m floating in a limbo and hearing this song echoing in the empty space, it’s quite peaceful
LIMBO????? Ultrakill reference (Clair de Lune is used in ULTRAKILL's final Limbo level)
one of the few memories I have left of my mother was her playing our out of tune piano after I was sent to bed. I used to sneak down the stairs to listen to her play.
I can see someone slowly bleeding out from a gunshot wound but has already made peace with death and their regrets and embraced the warm sun on their cheek as the voices of their loved one envelop their senses and they pass away
A wild fanfic writer has been spotted
this is so- magical. idk why i love the sound of an untuned piano lol
amazing job!!
Thank you so much!
I'm under the impression that when the piano is untuned, the strings have more room to vibrate freely/over an extended period of time, which enhances the level of sympathetic resonances you get when playing with the sustain pedal. That, and (amateur way of describing things incoming) since they are not tuned in unison anymore, each of them are vibrating with their own unique personality (compare it to a choral where everyone have "the same kind of voice" vs a choral with mixed voices).
I was somewhere. I think it was glacier national park at a campground. There was like a food court but very rustic and there was a pool and arcade section as well as pool tables. It was a fairly quiet evening and their was a family mumbling near the low drone of the pinball.
There was a piano sitting in the corner and I went to check if it had worked. It was the most echloey untuned piano I'd ever heard. Q fewinutes later my brother was talking and my brain drifted to this. I couldn't play it and i was looking at musecore but my phone was actually recording.
That recording is somewhere on the internet and I often go back to it because it reminds me of one of those moments that just happen. You can't force it, you don't know when it's happening, and there's no pomp and circumstance.
The out of tune piano isn't special because it's ethereal or sounds of an older time or place, it's special because of the literalness. It's real, it's not perfect, it's not preordained, it's not stylistic, it's the realness that encapsulates what living day by day is like.
I both hate and love this because the piano in my cousin’s old house sounded just like this, very out of tune and old. I had always wanted to learn how to play it but only got to watch as my uncle played some small parts of songs, and I was really mesmerized by it. I miss that house, I miss that piano and I miss my uncle, but I will always love an untuned piano cover.
This cover is beautiful. Thank you
an out of tune piano mixed with this song may be the most beautiful thing I've heard in so long. I have so much respect for this song and for the piano to add that extra kind of beauty (idk couldn't really find the right work) its just perfect to me.
Probably the most beautiful cover I’ve heard of this song, sounds super theatrical in a lonely way
out of tune pianos just feel so much better idk why

Beautiful cover of this piece. Takes me back to when my brother practiced piano on our school's totally out of tune piano, don't know why but when it's out of tune the music sounds like forgotten memories.
i came to RUclips looking for this exact video -- thank god for talent and inspiration being able to be shared. this is beautiful and youll be getting a lot of repeat views from me. if i could like more than once i would
Thank you so much!
I love this song too! I also thought your hands were your dad’s but now they look like a mix. I love the song Evanescence if you want to learn that.
Evanescense is a band not a song
After hearing this I think I'm no longer anxious to get my piano tuned.... I'm starting to love the out of tune sound !!! So magical.... 🌹💜
I love out of tune piano because each pianos out of tuneness is a unique story of the time and conditions its weathered. An individual instance of infinite, unique, variables
I love out of tune pianos, they bring out the emotions and the feeling of any piece. And sound beautiful.
Beyond description , immeasurable and unfathomable .
The imagery I can see in this was a person visiting an old abandon theme park and remembering the joy he once had going on each rides he went on and remembering everybody smiling and being happy but is now looking at the theme park that stand through being abandon with nobody in it except just themself as the rides are now rusted and decayed
Well played man! The first few bars remind me of the time my crush rejected me but she said she liked my shirt and smiled. I swear those notes convey the exact feelings I was experiencing during that incident.
I first heard Clair de lune from ultrakill, and wow, this would fit with the vibe of that level perfectly.
Would love to see more songs played like this
I have something else cooking up!
this sounds like a very peaceful and comfortable fade into insanity, like I've crossed into another reality of absurdity without a care in the world about where I've been or where I'm going
Reminds me when I played Bioshock as a kid for some reason. The playing is absolutely beautiful and sends chills (the good kind) down my spine. I myself play guitar, but this makes me want to learn piano. I hope you keep making videos like this.
(Sorry for breaking your 420 sub count lol)
It always gives me a Bioshock infinite type feel
I finally found the comment I was looking for! Bioshock is the reason I keep coming back to this video, when I heard it in infinite I just instantly knew I was gonna fall in love with the game. I can't wait to see how Bioshock 4 will turn out...
This song must play at my funeral, if not I simply just won't die.
had me crying too this , truly a beautiful piece...
just something about out of tune pianos gets me, it makes me feel like the piano being played is so well loved and used
The sound reminds me of "Your Lie in April," how the main character stops hearing the notes as he is playing, like he's underwater. For anyone who hasn't heard of the anime, you should definitely watch it, it'll be worth your time.
you’re spot on dude. exactly how i think it would feel like. its like being so overwhelmed that i can’t hear it even i know its being played. such a cool feeling. except not for him i guess
Yeah it's a really happy anime all the way! If your having a bad day just watch till the end, will make you feel much better
Very happy ending
POV: you just came back from a 9-5 job, your tired as hell, and you open your front door, walk into nobody at home, you take a cold beer from the fridge that wasnt stocked for 2 weeks, you lay on the couch, sad and tired, you open the bottle and you hear the distinctive pop that you hear almost every single day after work. you can here the pieces of tax papers sliding through the floors as it falls over. you turn the TV on to watch the commercial channel since there isnt anything else to watch, you start to snooze over and you suddenly hear the noise of the piano that you havent taken care of in over 20 years. you wake up in this lucid dreamland, the sky is a purple and blue hue and the clouds are pink. there is one house and its a pleasant blue color, almost reminding you of your childhood. you knock to see if anyone is there. you get greeted by a small dog that looks awfully similar to your childhood dog. then a old and sweet lady greets you. she says: Hello, would you like to come inside to have a cup of tea and some biscuits? you answer: yes please thank you. as soon as you walk into the door, you become 20 years younger. your back to being a child. you can smell the cookies in the oven. you can smell the jasmine tea's aroma. you go upstairs and you find a room that says "grandsons room" and you enter it, you see all your childhood belongings like the spelling bee award, lego sets. and your pokemon cards. you start crying. you go back downstairs and you talk with the old lady, you say: grandma is that you?, its me your grandson. she says: my grandson! and she starts crying in joy. you come up to hug here and you feel like your falling into the void and she disapears along with the house. you fall into the floor, you start falling into the void, you land in a sea, and you start drowning. you suddenly wake up in panic mode, you look around. and first thing you see is the piano. you walk up to it, you pull the cover open, and you clear the dust on the keys.and then you start playing your grandmas favorite piano piece, Clair de lune. you can hear the piano's age because its so out of tune, you end up staying on the piano until 4 in the morning. and then you fall asleep on the couch. you start crying while slightly smiling in joy. the end.
Great story. I love it
I listen to this over and over. You feel the emotion in the piece.
this is majestic man. you earned yourself a sub from this video alone.
i love out of tune piano, it feels like a wasteland with a lil bit of charm left to it
Best out of tune piano piece,it just fits amazingly well.
Such beauty! Thank you for this magnificent interpretation!
Thank you for appreciating it!
This gave me flashbacks to watching my girlfriend doing a playthrough of The Evil Within 2 while we were long distance over the summer. Thank you so much for a little glimpse of a time I really adored.
this makes me so sad, yet so calm
Feels like im going insane in a quirked up way. What a vibe
Playing a masterpiece on an out-of-tune instrument tells me, that no matter what your playing on, a masterpiece is still beautiful, its not bad, its unique.
the way i almost cried from the first note
I love this, I've listened to it over and over for a while now.
Happy to see you back here :)
If there's one song I wish I could listen to for the first time again it would be this
out of tune pianos feel like an anomaly you can play the most beautiful song on one and it will sound nostalgic and like it wasn’t meant for you to hear is simple words it reminds me of forgetting
I know I’m late but thank you for making this. I was looking for this on an out of tune piano. Thanks for playing this!
Underrated
OMG I LOVE SO MUCH THE SOUND OF THE UNTUNED PIANO IDK WHY I THINK NOSTALIGIA.
AMAZING GREAT JOB!
Thank you!!
I love the way it sounds
This music is so perfect and unique one day I want to make music in this style for my game.
I don’t know why but attitude pianos give me that sort of uncanny valley vibe but at the same time there’s somehow calming it’s like weird core or like stuck in a liminal space
Out of tune pianos feel so nostalgic and gives me a sensation of fear for some reason as well
I listened to this song a year ago back in may and it helped me feel better because my grandma was in the hospital after suffering a stroke and I wasnt able to see her in person because i was a year too young to enter the hospital room because they dont want kids making too much noise or other disturbances so you had to be 12+ to enter and i was 11 at the time so this helped me calm down so thank you :)
I came back to listen to this because of today, July 5th, it had been an entire year since her death. She had survived the stroke and was able to go back home but wasnt expected to survive by the end of the year. It was painful for her because she had to stay in a bed all the time and she had bed sores but she kept on fighting for 2 more months so she could see all of her family for the last time before deciding to take her final leave. My mom was in the room with my grandma, her own mother, when she died that morning and some of my other family members were there (my grandpa, my aunt, and one of my uncles.) It was a sad thing to hear when my dad told us the news but at least my grandma wasnt in pain anymore. I want to give my mom a hug today but she has covid 19 so I can't. :(
What a brave and beautiful story to share about your connection to this song. Thank you for sharing the healing and soothing power of music.
an out of tune piano give the song more color, it feels more realistic, it feels...right. an out of tune piano could make thousands of people weep by the snap of a finger. it’s so beautiful, yet so sad. it gives nostalgia, tears, beauty, love, and melancholy.
I love your interpretation of how it makes you feel!
Sounds like the 80's mappy game. I like this kind of music. Its really interesting.
Nice man!❤
Dissonance is a beautiful thing.
Just wait till the Danganronpa fandom finds out this exists
holy shit I’m imagining Shuichi after Danganronpa learning the piano and going back to the same one from the school (out of tune since it’s old, duh) and just- playing this
POV: they already did (i’m one of them)
I found out, time to cry.
I-
I already did-
Wow!
i feel the need to trek through an abandoned castle to this tune then fight a red robot with my exact skillset to the death.
RIP DEBUSSY AYYYYYYYYYYYY
NOOO
It’s almost like it sounds in your memories
It’s just so hypnotic to my ears.
It feels like a dream unraveling into a somewhat familiar nightmare
I want this and sunshower by Chris Cornell played at my funeral
Clair de lune my beloved
POV: You're flying through a nebula cloud at sub-light speeds
This sounds absolutely beautiful!!! Pianos out of tune have such a haunting feeling to them
I love it ❤️🎶
Hallelujah
It reminds me of the cover that you hear in evil within when infront of the mirrors or in the hospital, of course it doesn’t have the violin but still, it’s beautiful
It makes sense why it would sound so good with the over tones and undertones
I can’t read sheet music so I just memorize the chords as a kid, Clair de lune is the only song I know how to play in just the first half😂. Just now realizing that my piano is out of tune because it sounds exactly like this
Haha keep going. I still don’t know how to read but I’m starting to prefer it that way. Picking up on new songs way faster with practice!
Out of tune pianos are on another level
this is really pretty!
Thank you!
It sounds cool
reading karina's last days to this and it's an experience i recommend
Woah
You step forth in front of the cathedral. It seems so utterly massive it takes your mind ages to even process it, because after all, this is where your mission led you to. Although it's not the end, it's definitely a major point in it. The sheer scenery around the place is although mundane at first glance, breathtaking on a second. After your moment of walking around the front entrance, you hop your way over some seemingly random pedestals and attempt to unlock the front door, only for it to be locked. You sigh in disbelief before turning around, connecting the dots in your head the moment you do. Maybe these pedestals mean something! Must an object be placed on them? One of your relics perhaps? I mean, you do have a skull with you, it's even the same color as the pedestal! Shortly after this connection, you place the skull on the left most pedestal, only for nothing to happen. maybe there's two more? You go out in search for these two skulls, hopping right back into the building you came out of.
You scour every room, every ceiling, every floor, and every wall. Every pot, every rug, window, and every chandelier. You do manage to find one skull, but not the other. You go back to place it on the middle pedestal before going back into the building, only to find... something. No, someone, the second you open the door. They darted by so fast they looked like a big red and a small blue blight on your eyes. Was the small blue blight the third skull? Maybe, just maybe. You also dart in that direction, determined to get to the bottom of this sudden mystery. Reaching the end of the corridor, you do manage to find the skull, although not where you expected. Oh well, at least you have all of the skulls you wanted!
Putting the third one on the last pedestal, the front door suddenly swings open, as if inviting you in. You've known automatic doors, but not wooden doors that swing open once skulls are collected. Well, it doesn't matter at this point, because you're already inside. You take a breath in, and then a breath out. The scenery is even more wonderful. Stained glass windows lining the walls, plants surrounding you, columns only adding to the rich atmosphere, it's all here. You sit down on the floor, inspecting your weapons as this song plays in the background. You get up, feeling refreshed wonderful after taking a well deserved break. But as you step forward, the complete unexpected happens...
The stained glass window on the back wall shatters, as a tall red figure slams on the ground with such force you're sent a ways up in the air before slamming down yourself. Is this... you? No, this can't be right. How can there be you, if you're the only you there is? Your rampant thinking is suddenly cut off by 'you', who bows down with their arms to their sides as if they're ending a performance. You take this time to look around once more, only to realize nothing has changed. Nothing was affected by what had just happened, as if this was all glued to the ground. You look back at the figure, who now brands your pistol? Wait, YOUR pistol? But you have your pistol right here! How can they be an EXACT copy of you?! WHEN WAS THIS TECHNOLOGY INVENTE- oh, they're shooting at you now.
Bullets hit your arms as you immediately fire back, nailing some body shots and even a head shot as you dart around the room just like they do. Such a dance has never been seen by your kind before, but it will not be the last it will appear. You toss a coin in the air, prepared to preform your signature move, until they decide to take it one step further, and throw their coin against yours, knocking them both out of the air. Who does this guy think they are, denying you your own skills with their own carbon copy versions? Enough is enough. You toss three coins in the air simultaneously, and fire at them before they could be knocked down. You even gave them some karma by having your bullet ricochet off of his own coin and nail them right in the head. This euphoric rush overtakes you as you move faster than you have ever done before. You swap to weapons over and over again, and they do the same. You charge your railgun, and they do the same not even moments later. You dodge, they dodge. You take cover, they take cover. This truly IS a copy of you. No matter though, you have the advantage. You fire and fire and fire in an attempt to overwhelm them, and it mostly works, although you take some hits yourself. You keep this up more and more, unloading bullet after bullet, blast after blast, nail after nail, saw after saw. Until...
You see them almost collapse in the middle, barely keeping themself together as you stare them down, You don't want to execute them, you need answers. But after that gruesome fight, you can't even open your mouth thinking about everything that had just happened. You sit back down on the ground again, your pistol and coins ready just in case they try anything. And to your surprise, they don't. They jump into the air, shattering yet another priceless window, this time being the one on the ceiling. You see something fly off as they do so, though. A stick? A red stick? No, something much more gruesome. Their arm. Somehow, you dealt so much damage to their body, one shattered window was enough to send their left arm flying off their body. You pick it up, before it suddenly attaches to you, replacing your now former left arm. Surprisingly, this doesn't hurt at all, but you will have to get used to your new arm.
The back door of the cathedral opens, leading to yet another passage downward. Even in times like these, you can never truly catch a break, can you? Regardless, you walk forward before turning around out of curiosity. You look back at the scenery again, pondering why this had to be such a hellish battle in the first place. But then, you look up, and notice something quite peculiar.
*Has that window always been cracked?*
Haha funni robot game
i'm going to jump through a stained glass window
this shit goes hard
This was really wonderful :)
This is amazing Lol it sometimes reminds me or a saloon like piano if you know what I mean XD
No hate btw! Have an awesome day! :)

*And so it starts. A killing game, huh?
*You believe in them, don't you?
*You think you'll get out of it with them.
*Your thoughts begin to clutter with "What if"s. All you can think of is...
*Maybe piano will help...
*a body has been discovered.*
* *You choose to investigate- You'll get out soon, you keep telling yourself.*
* *The trial begins.....*
* *The trial ends.*
* *And so do you, with the the song you always held comfort to yourself being your death. The people you loved the most watching your struggles as you try to break free. You failed, not only that but the song that's only to be played in white keys is played in black. At least it's over, as you take your final breathe, and the game continues.*
this song always reminds me of evil within
As a dangonronpa fan this sounds so empty but happy at the same time I knew this song before Dangonronpa but I am happy they used this in the game
You deserve more recognition 👏
Thanks! I’m surprised this one even had this much attention

untuned pianos are just unique in something i can't describe
