I've played this piece before, and I wanted to give some really important and handy advice for the pianists out there. This applies to any piece. Though it is very hard to explain it without any visual aid... I still hope it may be useful to someone. Feel free to ask questions or add something in the comments, because you can never stop learning and improving. ;) There's a "secret" to getting the technique right and the technical difficulties being easier for you (I really don't like calling it a secret, because it isn't, it's something every professional pianist knows). It's all about the position of your hand: You have to make sure your fingertips are very active and your hand is firm, but your wrist and the rest of your arms should be 'free' and very relaxed. The thing is; you don't actually press the keys with your fingers, rather you place your finger on the key, and with the weight of your arm, you rest your hand and (active) finger on the key, creating a more beautiful and stable sound. When playing, it is important for your hand and arm to support your fingers. This means that when you for example use your 2nd finger, you adjust the position of your arm in a way that your 2nd finger is supported well. Doing this is the most difficult for the 4th and 5th fingers (in my opinion). You have to adjust the position of your hand and arm in order for your 4th or 5th finger to 'stand' comfortably on the key. In short: Don't actually "press" the keys with your fingers, rather 'rest' your fingers and a firm hand with the weight of your arm. Make sure that your wrist is relaxed and not tense at all. Put your hand and arm in a position that fully supports your hand and fingers. This 'technique' is not just for overcoming technical difficulties in a piece, but to improve the sound of the notes you play as well. When you understand and (try to) master this, technicalities become way easier and less tiring to play. Some really, really difficult pieces are almost impossible to play (well) without this. It took me a good year to master this concept, and I cannot tell you how huge the difference is. Achieving a beautiful sound and playing technically well is way easier. Your hand also becomes way less tired after playing a technically demanding piece.
The easiest way to learn this piece is to break it down and understand the broken chords. Knowing your theory is what makes pieces like this easy. also just practice with a metronome to get the technique and speed and don’t give up :)
I play since 3 years now and started practicing this piece in the December and I can play almost the half piece now. So it's possible and actually not that hard if you spend that time into practicing :)
I’m not sure about videos but I recommend the ABRSM “AB guide to music theory” because it starts off easy and quickly ramps up. Most importantly though you need to analyze and recognize where the theory comes into play in the piece. The piece was mostly improvised by Beethoven and therefor is easily broken back down into fundamental theory related techniques. Spend at least a quarter of your time analyzing the piece at a desk and be sure to practice carefully and patiently. It is also important to split time up into learning time and revising time for the piece or you can quickly lose momentum. Keep your hands relaxed and don’t race through it. Also remember most people who play this piece are maestros so take it easy on yourself and don’t get discouraged. I think it’s awesome that people want to learn a piece like this even if it’s a huge jump from where they are. I’ve seen it done before and I’m sure it’s achievable so don’t give up! Hope this helped. Also this anime is bloody epic and as a concert pianist i can relate to it so much and I love it to bits!
After 2 Years of Training, I surprised my Mom by Playing the Moonlight Sonata 3rd Movement on Her Weeding... Her Face the moment she saw me at the White Piano, it was Beatiful
this piece was nothing but pain.. the hand stretch's. the tempo. I learnt until the 3rd page and dropped it cuz it was just pain. don't do this unless your willing to die inside slowly while your loosing your insanity on the outside.
I remember watching that first scene and thinking “that’s moonlight sonata” and I kept doubting myself so I looked it up and realized I’m an actual genius, although I do come from a musical family and have a knack for recognizing songs quickly but a song like moonlight sonata with lots of parts and me just being able to pick up on it so quickly amazed me
My sister was play this and it sounded familiar, so I was thinking where I've heard it, I just randomly guested I heard it from Your Lie in April so I searched it and I was somehow right tho, even tho i remember almost nothing from the anime lol. I should rewatch it🥲
The 3rd movement is in a sonata form (Exposition, Development, Recapitulation). The opening part is the exposition as it "exposes" the main themes of the piece. The second section, Development, develops those set of themes into something different. Third section, Recapitulation, changes the developed set of themes into the home key, along with the development in play. In this case, the home key is C# minor. and the Development section is in Db major.
It was good that you were able to play the notes, but focus on staying in tempo. Being able to play the song is good, but if you are not in tempo then you won't be able to get the full impact of this piece.
@@ChowingChow No worries bro, no need to apologize. We all start somewhere. Can’t wait to see the final result of this piece if you upload it. Keep up the practice 👍
@@faclonx6275 No problem but another tipp try to make the first part on 153 bpm and then try to hold the tempo trough the song it makes it sound better cause you can build in some delays etc.
