      Thank you for the sheet music links! I really like having ones that show some fingering tips. My favorite is Fur Elise of the ones I'm familiar with (which aren't many). My thinking on choosing pieces to learn is--will I like this after I've practiced in 100 times or more? For Fur Elise the answer is yes.

    • @PianoFromScratch

      Yes always a fun one to play even if a bit overplayed. Just remember with fingering notes on sheet music, they're not set in stone there's often other ways that may be more suitable so treat them as a suggestions from the person who published that particular score

  • @89Reeses

    Thank you for a very useful and supportive video again. I started my very first self-learning piano from the song I like the most since my first hearing: Canon (but I chose Canon in C instead of D, as I’ll be easier for me).
    .
    I thought it would take me 6 months to complete the entire piece, but I did within one month and a half (with more smoothness). At first I felt like I was a kid pressing on the keyboard, but after that muscles of the hand seemed to know which one to press.
    .
    Thank you for always emphasizing the audiences on ‘starting from your favorite song’ with ‘small chunk of notes’. It works; it encourages me to keep on practicing like I could find something new and adventurous every day.
    .
    Looking forward to learning from your new tips from the next video. 🙂

    I watched this two years ago as a true beginner. And the more I learned, the less I wanted to call myself Late Beginner. There is too much to learn and rushing through with shortcuts is harmful. I’m trying to really master triads.
    Thoroughbass is a Baroque technique and it helps to understand music. I applied this to the Prelude in Do Majeure and am playing it in all other keys. At first in the keys with up to three sharps or flats.

    Just want to say thanks for this excellent set of tunes and sheet music. I'm working my way through the first one and it really is an excellent piece to learn sight reading. Most of the notes are not on ledgure lines and they are spread enough that one can't easily move from one note to the next without knowing what it is - so excellent for practice. About half way through so far. Wish me luck 😊😊

    After I learned piano this last year these pieces were actually all the one I started and that were recommended already by other channels. They are all wonderful though I find Bach's Prelude a bit annoying to play it by now.
    What I definitely like to learn would be John Field's Nocturne No 7 in C Major. Somebody please do a lesson for that one! I die a happy man after I've learned it.

    Love this lesson. What do you recommend for the sheet music with piano fingering? Or do you have other lessons which teach each piece?

    • @PianoFromScratch
      @PianoFromScratch  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi, I don't have tutorials at the moment. Sometimes sheet music will have fingering, I put some links in the comments and believe some of them do but remember that fingering on sheet music is not set in stone. It's usually done just by whoever produced that particular score and there's usually other ways it can be played too.

    Nice content, well presented, personal observation, not a criticism, slightly less tension in the voice would be good. Also 'chords' good to hear that you made some reference to actually naming them and drawing attention how one relates and morphs into another. PS, what instrument are you using.

    • @jfan4reva
      @jfan4reva ปีที่แล้ว +2

      @lumpichu Beethoven wrote it for mere mortals, not gods. If it never happens, it's because you left the road before you got there. It will be a long road for a beginner, (especially if you aspire to play it at the speed of classical pianists), but if you work towards it, you can get there. I listen to Valentina Lisitsa play Moonlight Sonata on the way to work. She finishes just as I'm pulling into the parking garage. It may seem impossible now, but if you revisit it often enough, and get familiar enough with it, you'll start to see 'cracks in the armor', little things that will make you say "Hey, I could play that!", or "Yeah, this is the part that goes like this!" Just don't give up, and don't put it on too high of a pedestal. It's music for mere mortals.

      @@lumpichu Don't be too harsh on yourself. I bet that 99% of all piano players that took lessons are never going to be able the play the 3rd movement. Heck, half of them haven't even heard of that piece. Social media and TH-cam completely change the way we think. You mostly see videos recommended of the top 0.1%, the very best players. It's the same with chess for example. You immediately start comparing yourself with extremely talented people that put an enormous amount of time into it coupled with outstanding passion.
