Thank you! 😊
Thank you for making these lessons, as someone who cannot afford to go to a proper piano class lessons like these on the internet is really helpful. I'm really grateful.
You are so welcome! I am very happy to hear that you are finding the videos helpful. Thank you for your comment 😊
Welcome to our final version of Sicilienne! I hope you enjoy 😊🎶
Halo, is the fingering on this one is the correct technique to play it or is it more just a variation to help practice fingering? Because when I was not paying attention on the fingering on the video before I was playing some notes with my pinkie. Like for example the left hand I was using my pinkie to start playing the Bb note. I have no problem reaching the black note with my pinkie if I angle/rotate my hand a little bit. It just pique my curiosity on why only using 3 fingers and then having to cross my 2nd finger over my thumb and vice versa when I can just use 5 fingers? Hope someone can give an aswer.
Thank you for asking 😊 Generally, when we play scales we avoid using the thumb on the black notes and that's the reason for the more tricky fingering here. I hope this helps!
@@pianofocuscommunity Thank you, so scales here includes melody in a song that contain notes within that scale? The fingering to play it is the same that it evade using thumb over black keys?
@@footballfan5048 Good question! Often, we will - but depending on the notes of the song, we might need to choose a different fingering. In some cases, this could include using the thumb on a black key 😊
It would be beneficial if your music sheets could have finger numbering added. Mainly to save going over and over the video in slow motion?
For sure, there's quite a lot happening here! If you download the music again, you'll see that I've added the fingering for you. I hope this helps! 😊
I like the hand switching in Ver. 5. Thanks
I'm glad you enjoyed it Frankie! Thank you for your ongoing support 😊
Welcome to B Flat Major - a little different to our previous routines! 🎶 I hope you enjoy learning this one and have a great week everyone 😊
