Bitesize Piano: Hi Francesca. I checked out your website and it’s very impressive.
I’m just a beginner and can barely read sheet music but wanted to learn my first classical piece. I did it thanks to you and finished learning Bach Prelude in C Major from your TH-cam channel.
I was wondering if you have a email I can email you a video of me playing it?
Also another thought. It might be fun if people are up to it and post people playing your songs after they learn from your tutorials, perhaps a page on your webpage for piano students from all over the world learning. I’m excited to share my excitement of learning my first classical piece because of you. Just an idea or thought to consider.
What is your email? I didn’t see it on your webpage? Again thank you so much for teaching us all. You are such a wonderful teacher! 😊🙏

THANK YOU VERY MUCH . I am pleased about your nice help. Greetings from Cologne Germany
Thank you so, so much. Adult beginner started in March and doing plinky-plink pieces from a widely-used kids beginner book - aaand just wanted something more, something inspirational - and this is it! Have really, really loved learning this. Started this 5 weeks ago, am taking it slow, doing a bit each day and halfway through, being careful to make sure I use the right fingers and all. But can now finally play something that sounds decent(to me - am prob murdering it)! Am so grateful to you. Piano teachers for adult beginners take note. Yes, we need to learn how to play - of course we do.. but we also to be inspired too!
It's so important to remain inspired you're absolutely right! So pleased my tutorial helped, and well done learning it as a beginner!
What I love the most about your tutorials is that you take the time to show the fingering with your actual fingers as they move across the keys. This is so important for adult learners! I recently started practicing again for meditation and focus. Thank you! 🫶🏽🫶🏽
I also love how you name/call out the keys as you touch them. Beautiful free tutorial! 🥰🥰👏🏽👏🏽
You’re very welcome 🤗🎹
@@BitesizePiano 🥰🥰
Thank you 😊
I’ve been playing your tutorial every night now until I learn to play the whole piece. Tutorials like these are very valuable because you get to learn the finger placement as well as the sheet music.
This is one of the arrangements that I have been wanting to learn!! Thank you so much for doing this tutorial and teaching it at a pace that is understandable to a 56 year old novice!!
Just saw a video of a lovely man playing this piece to a blind elephant in Thailand. I've had a keyboard for years but have never learnt how to play. Your tutorial has given me the confidence that I could possibly be capable of learning this piece (with lots and lots of practice) 😀Thanks very much!!👍👍
Wow wonderful....been playing this piece for over 10 year off and on. Self taught from TH-cam. Your video is the best instructional so far, thank you for sharing.
Good Tutor-Good Tutorial. Simple, step by step. The best way to learn piano lessons.
I recently returned to playing piano after years of absence. This really helped me understand how to play this piece. Thank you!
Hello again: The way you have the camera set up above the keyboard with the music in front is excellent. Good job!
You might be the best tutor on TH-cam
And possibly the best in the world
Just finished learning this. Thanks a lot.
Outstanding, as usual. Many thanks, Brian
Thank your for the Bach Tutorial. I think yours is the best. I am learning this piece at the moment and found your tutorial really helpful as I was having a few problems with the end bit.
Could you please do Passacaglia Handel-Halvorsen ? I know there are other tutorials of this out there, but I haven't found one I like and I think you are the best teacher.
Thank you so much for breaking this down. Great lesson.
Glad it was helpful! :)
Thank you, great job !
Thanks so much for this tutorial.
I am just starting to learn this piece...I am studying the music sheet at the moment...your video gives me insight as I am a piano beginner.
Have a great day!.
You're very welcome!
Than you so much -what a brilliant tutorial- great patience and love how you explain it with what notes to play, as I cant read music that well. When you hear it played in concert it sounds so grand and epic but once you have deconstructed it it's quite a manageable piece to play. Then it comes down to the individuals interpretation of how it all flows together.
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you so much this will inspire me to continue
It's a great help having the same piece that your are playing, on the copy i had the end part was puzzling me but sorted now thanks.
Amazing presentation, BP 👍
Looks absolutely fantastic!
Appreciate the visit, thank you very much!
More power to you channel Friend 🥰
All the best!

You’re welcome!
Thank you so much 😍, my parents won't throw my piano anymore 😭😭😭😭😭

Thank you for the laughter!!!!!
Thank you for this lesson I tried to play it before but the left hand just confused me so much I gave up I can now play juat the beginning but it is a start!! Thank you 🙂
You're very welcome! Pleased you came back to it :)
thank you so much for this helpful tutorial!! this piece was harder than expected - it took me 1.5 hours just to get through the first 3 lines 😅 i really need to work on my sightreading.
Pleased you found it helpful! Keep it up 🤗
Wonderful, thank you and especially thank you for the sheet music, which helped enormously. (I transcribed by hand note for note... can't read both clefs at the same time, but maybe one day!)
I highly recommend that you don’t label every single note!
Thank you sm my sheet music skills are so bad and this really helped!

Apologies for glitch at 15:30 - not sure what happened there! D:
Awesome you have lined time stamp listed
Thanks,
👍 Super like 👍
Thank you sooooooo much for this. My mom always wanted me to play this
Could you please do prelude no 2 in Cm? Your videos are much appreciated! Thank you!
Hello Francesca: I'm not sure if I should ask my questions here or log into my account which I signed up for yesterday. When starting with the left hand, why not place finger one on the E and the third finder on the C. That way the fingers are on the keys they'll play and don't have to move around? Also, at the beginning of the play with the left hand, why are the C and E held down? Is there something in the music that indicates this? I slowed this down to half speed and it's easier to follow during the learning process. Thank you so much, Bob
When do you start pressing the pedel en when to release?
Ty.. I learnt it in abt 5 hrs 😏
Great video need some guidance on notes and this was very helpful.
Glad it was helpful!
This video is supremely helpful and I thank you for sharing it. 2 questions - why is this named Prelude in C Major when it contains sharps? I'm sure there is some reason for it that is beyond my current understanding. Also, what level would you say this piece is? Being self taught it can be difficult to choose pieces to learn in a logical order.
They’re called accidentals, which are altered notes that don’t belong to the scale/key signature. I’d say this piece is around grade 2/3 level
This was amazing! Always wanted to learn a classical piece.
Will start from here ❤
Also, could you check out Tedy and do a tutorial on any one of his songs? Thanks!!
in sheet music i am ref there is an extra bar between 23rd and 24th which goes G Eb B C Eb B C Eb , is it wrong?
Hi - thanks
Quick question. On the music sheet i see the second note of the left hand in esch bar is “played” as the 1st note on the right hand. However, that’s not how it’s played.
So my question is why does the music sheet appear to have these notes played simultaneously?
Sometimes it’s more reader-friendly to ‘borrow’ a stave for a few notes instead of creating ledger lines or changing the clef. This is very common. The key is to look for the direction of the note stems. They are not played simultaneously, they are not in line with each other and there is a semi quaver rest to show the next note is played after a semi quaver beat.
A breath taking piano peice by jery hou
I am new to piano and sheet music in general. but in bar 6 only the first note of the trebel clef has # in front of it so do we assume it for every note in the bar or it that a typo of some kind. Thanks
Yes the accidental lasts for the rest of the bar unless cancelled out
@@BitesizePiano oh thank you so much
Please do air on g string tutorial 😍
Please make a video about g minor arranged by luo
thanks a lot for this many of them doint give the full lesson , then force us to sup to the channel t oget the rest lol anyway this a lot.
Hi... hopefully you could make a tutorial on Robert Schumann Davidsbündlertänze Op.6 No.18 .... Thank you!
Love u its useful. do u recommend for begginers?
I probably wouldn't recommend this one for beginners.
@@BitesizePiano I need to know wich tempo is this piece played? I saw that is aleggro in 112, is it truth?
In the first you teach 3 notes for right hand but on the sheet it looks like 4 notes, it's my first day so I'm brand new, can you advise and clarify please? Would really appreciate.
I’d start with something more simple, this isn’t suitable for complete beginners. The Left hand note is notated on the treble clef
Everything i do by Brian Adams
How about the beautiful Rachmaninov 18th variation?
Question for someone who doesn’t play piano maybe dab a bit here and there how long would it naturally take them to learn this? Took me 2 hours while I’m trying to pass a panic attack. Reach 4 parts and playing with my eyes shot… everyone telling me to learn it but I’m too old with short fingers and I don’t know how to read notes. Just go with the ear
Will you please make a video on how to play All of Me by john Schmidt?
Just checking comments and filtering the ones from those who aren't subscribed, and TH-cam tells me you aren't subscribed! Please consider hitting that button! :)
@@BitesizePiano I subscribed a long time agoooo :)
Just want to know, do I need to use sustain all the way?
Not at all actually!
do we have to use same fingers to play the keys
Ideally, yes
I got to about bars 22-23 and thought I was playing something wrong, then I realised my sheet music has an extra bar!
I googled it and found out all about the "Schwenke" bar. Interesting! I think I'm going to carry on playing it with the extra bar now that I've learnt it that way.
I have a couple of copies of this sheet music with the extra bar too, and another without!

In Bar 3 is that a G7 chord?
Erik Satie please. have you done any video tutorials on his music?
Yes I have - just search through my channel!

Sorry! I keep accidentally hitting the 'DISLIKE' button when I try to keep my screen from going to sleep while practicing. I really like your tutorial so ignore at least 4 dislikes, they were probably me by accident.
It acts like a toggle, so if you accidentally hit it, hit it again intentionally and immefiately and it gets reset.
I really don't see the purpose of this. Without explanation reading all the notes excruciatingly sliwly. A person who reads notes reads anyway, who can't read won't after you play anyway.
I was hoping for more insight of the chird progression etc.... pity. Wasted 30 min.
😂 this is a TUTORIAL on how to play it, not a theoretical analysis. Perhaps read the title and description before watching something for 30 minutes, and then refine your search to find a video specific to what you’re looking for. Don’t post a shitty comment on a video because you’re expecting it to be something it doesn’t claim to be. Have you read all the other comments that say how helpful this is? This is a FREE lesson for those who want to play this piece, and perhaps want extra reassurance that they’re playing correct notes. Bore off with your pointless comment 👋🏻
I'm an adult beginner (sort of) and apparently this is supposed to be one of the easiest classical piano pieces to learn for beginners, so I decided to start with Prelude in C Major. I am nervous! 🫶🏽🫶🏽
Thanks!
