It's my 3rd evening practicing this and I'm already 10mins in your video, playing at a nice tempo :) The only thing I'm missing is a video from the side that can demonstrate the up-down movement. Top-down video is great to understanding the notes and the in-out and rotation movements, however not very good for the up-down. Nevertheless, I think this video is the best explanatory and practicing video on youtube.
Dude.... Duuuuude..... DUDE! You have absolutely no idea how much i appreciate this!!. This is a piece i was learning about 8 years ago but became unwell and stopped playing the piano. Now i've come back to begin learning again and this video is perfect for my style of learning. I can read music but extremely slowly, i've always learnt best by ear and by just watching someone else, so this channel is an absolute godsend to me, THANKYOU!
I will learn this eventually. In the past school year, from August to now, I've grown closer to classical music. I asked my parents for an electric piano for Christmas and I love it. My dream is to become a soloist and a composer. In the past 6 to 7 months I've learned Chopin pieces like his waltz in a minor (op.posth) and even his waltz in c sharp minor. Thank you
Same story for me I got a keyboard since I am very fond of classical music from the moment I first listened to it. 6 months in and I can play Moonlight sonata 1st and 3rd mvmt (3rd without bass and 2 hands on the progression), rondo alla turca (turkish march), Rachmaninoff’s Prelude in C sharp minor Op 3 no 2 and Debussy’s Arabesque and Clair de lune wich I am learning right now. Let’s both rise to the top, brother.
@@balladin9200 has your passion ever failed you and caused you to want to quit? I hope this isnt selfish to talk abt me but I have such strong passion and completly lose it and quit. Advice? But you guys will get where you want I know you will, practice!
aiemii i I myself have those thoughts to not practice and not learn, especially in my situation where i’m playing with a 60 euros keyboard with bad sound and no pedals. You could see this as discouraging or you can take a different way, a different perspective and be grateful for even having an instrument to begin with. Be happy to have the ability to play pieces that can span back to 200 years back, be happy to work on yourself. Your future self will thank you, he’ll look back to the beginnings and be grateful to even have started. You’ll also feel the same satisfaction after you finally completed a hard piece, keep broadening your raw musical talent into a big repertoire my friend.
You are the most incredible piano teacher on RU-vid. I've learned from your channel in the past few months than I had in years from other channels. Thank you for all you do!
Playing this piece has always been my dream, and now - after 4 months, I can play it! Thank you very much for putting effort on making this video and helping others! Thanks to you, my dream is now real, appreciate your work! 😄
@@johnbarkoulas1338not the guy or girl you were asking but I learnt this in about 3 months/3 1/2 months and I’ve played piano for about 6 years and I can play many hard classical pieces but this one really stumped me with the inversions and confidence of playing it full speed but now I can play it so my advice is definitely set your mind to it and you can do it and also focus on the inversions cuz those are hard asf
I've been learning and practicing the third movement for a few months now and every time i get stuck or try to learn more i come back here. I've learned about half way through this video and I can confidently say that this is the best tutorial for a piece i have ever seen! Thank you for this!!!!
This tutorial has helped me so much. I truly am grateful you did this. I am now in part 4 of the song and can’t wait to finish it!! Also I can’t read sheet music as well so this helped in that aspect as well 😂
This Tutorial is amazing! I have been practicing this for months and have been having problems getting it up to speed. Just 15 min practicing with these tips and its opened up another world to me. My speed and fluidity has dramatically increased with just a short practice. I will be working these tips into my practice routine from now on. I have watched many good videos on how to practice this piece, they have been good but were lacking in addressing the problems encountered when trying to increase your playing speed. The other videos just brush over the problems and solutions but this one really identifies the problems and how to overcome them. Thank you for donating your time and knowledge to the RU-vid community!
Argh, after two months i have finally learned it. Now to practice it until i can play it decently. This is the tutorial that made me become a Patron. never in my wildest dreams did i think that i would be able to play this piece. Daniel will always have a place in my heart.
I have played piano for many years, but only ever as a hobby and I can’t read music at all. I would say that anyone can play this piece as long as you don’t mind playing it MUCH slower! It’s important to not let the ego get in the way.
Ive never studied piano with a music teacher, but if I ever have to say i have one, you are the idol that taught me everything i know, thank you, sincerely i cannot stress how far ive come with your guidance. With love and respect❤️
Сейчас, по прошествии примерно 4 месяцев, я уже завершаю 5 часть. До этого самое сложное произведение что я смог сыграть это "к элизе" Бетховена. Невероятно как этот туториал раскрыл и показал, что это произведение не такое сложное как кажется. Очень завидую ученикам, у которых есть такой учитель как он. Спасибо за ваши уроки!
Прекрасен урок, преди 40 години свирех на пиано 🎹, но живота ме отдели от него, сега се връщам обратно, уча с удоволствие и тези уроци са много добри, не рсьбирам езика, но слушам и гледам. Продължавайте да ни учите. Огромно благодаря. Поздрав Юлия 😊
Thank you so much for this! I'm brand new to piano (starting late, 40yrs old), and this is a favorite piece of mine. I want to learn Pachelbels Canon, this piece, and some Beethoven. Looking at sheet music is so daunting. Watching you break each part down makes everything so much clearer. I actually think I might be able to play this one for real now, haha.
Danke, endlich ein Video für den 3.Satz, bin noch nicht ganz fertig aber super erklärt. Und durch das Video von dir vom 2.Satz kann ich endlich die "MONDSCHEINSONATE"ganz lernen! Vielen lieben Dank! !!!
I cqnt believe in what im seeing. This is one of the world’s most known and hard pieces, and i imagine it is even harder to teach it. Your patience, tips, your way of teaching and your teaching itself! When gathered with your advanced and so sofisticated technique, makes this an amazing lesson. Thank you from Brazil! Love ya
It's simply incredible what you do here. Where others would expect money, you just bring out a video to learn a full piece bit by bit, explaining like a real piano teacher who you probably are. You already really helped me to learn the beautiful piece Clair de lune from Debussy, but I really didn't expect that you would take the time to explain the *whole* 3rd movement of the moonlight sonata. I can't put into words how much I appreciate that. Plus, you're not only showing how to paly the piece but also introduce some exercises to master some very difficult parts of it. I'm probably not even close to the level of a hobby piano player who actually should learn this piece, but I am very convinced that everyone can learn anything, if they just practice the piece. This is one of my favorites and I'm excited to learn it. First completing first movement, then second, and then this very one in this video. Wish me luck!
This was utterly and truly the MOST useful tutorial EVER. I felt like my moonlight was missing something, now the additional feeling and cleanness makes me so thrilled and appreciative. 😊😊😊❤
Thank you so much! It only took me 1 week to learn the first part! I basically mastered the song in 4 months but this is amazing keep up the amazing content ur making people’s dreams come true
You are a blessing and a gift to aspiring pianist across the world that don’t have access to expensive teachers. You’ve really allowed my playing to get to the next level. Absolute boss. God bless you
❤️🎶Thank you for making this video! It is very clear and understandable, i thought i could never learn this composition, but now i think I got a chance.🎶❤️ From 🇲🇰 🇲🇰 🇲🇰 Macedonia!
Thank you so much for this awesome video, you make every thing in detail. Now it is possible for us who dream of playing this difficult piano piece of all time, "Moonlight Sonata 3rd Movement❤". Watching from Saudi Arabia.
You are unbelievable. Combining you with the piano sheet gives me a fighting chance. The piano sheet alone seemed completely intractable to me but your lessons are astounding. Thank you for taking the time to make these lessons thorough, give us technique tips and repeating so many times.
Thank you very much, thanks to you, I learned to play this piece practically in full until I learned it in full, when I play this piece I feel ecstatic and that thanks to you ❤️
I am not exactly a piano player but a jazz guitarist but after hearing my nephew play this tune I was motivated to learn the 3rd movement for curiosity and analysis. Your instructions are helping a lot. Thank you so much!!
Glad I found this masterpiece I'm an ABRSM grade 5 students and I've been playing piano for a year and half rn. I can now play the first part of MS3 in original speed thanks to this amazing tutorial,love from Hong Kong.❤️
I love your tutorials. You make what seems impossible...possible! You don't show off. You just teach, clear and simple, with no confusing, distracting waffling off in unnecessary directions to show how good you are. Thank you SO much.
Hey man, im still having trouble at the part where the inversions would end. You know, the end part of the scales at the start of the song where you loudly smash the piano twice. There would be 3 notes you had to press before loudly smashing it, but I struggle to play the 3 notes before it instead, I play 4 notes and then smash the piano which really doesn't sound right. Could you give me some advice please?
I also make tutorials for a living. This is the FIRST of 5 videos I've watched on this that actually teaches how to play, not just what you're pressing. Everybody else with more views just says "mmm G sharp D sharp mmm yes" and wiggles their fingers about but doesn't say SH else about what you should be trying for mentally. I guess you have beginner perspective or you don't but this channel is 10/10
I love playing the piano although I don't have a background, but the first piece I played was from this channel and it was my favorite chopin piece... Only the 1st part because I only have 61 keys.... As usual great tutorial thanks sir, polishing comes next
I really don't know how to thank you enough. I want to be a self taught pianist. Your videos are a such a bless. Thank you once again. Kudos!!!! Lots of love from India
very good. I'll try this tmr. thx. ♥️🎵🎶🎼 This is excellent tutorial. I love the beautifull notes of the folksy dance after the arpeggios. I'm going to be able to play the whole Moonlight
Thank you very much for taking the time to explain all this in such detail. I've been struggling with this piece for quite some time. Your tutorial is a great help.
I’m nowhere near ready or able to begin learning this, but until I can I’m happy to listen it and watch tutorial videos. I’ll certainly come to this video when I’m able to start learning this piece though.
It's a bitch learning this depending on your skill level, but there is nothing more satisfying than when you play this and it finally starts to sound like the actual piece.
@@PianoSecretsChannel I am, I started practicing the right hand at the end of February. Not heavily, would just practice the first 3 climbs a few times a day. Introduced left hand in August, and now I can play through part 1 at mid 150s bpm. Once it started sounding like the actual piece it was much easier to get motivated to practice. I'm not totally inexperienced, I know most chords, major/minor scales, etc. I took piano lessons for a few years as a kid, but didnt touch a piano from age 12-25. Then started playing a little bit more in my late 20s, but never anything close to this tempo with these kinds of fingerings and arpeggios. The one advantage I have is that I've typed 120wpm since I was like 11, so I knew I had the finger speed. I'm hoping I can play 90%+ of it by 2024.
You are a genius man. Your informative teaching style speaks of your passion for music. Thanks for keeping such contents accessible to all Piano enthusiasts.
This is an amazing channel thank you so much for giving so much effort in your channel and it’s it’s really good and I will be learning this piece from you tysm !
I am 6 months into learning this. I am almost through with part 4. Was going to wait until I learned it to thank you but I have come back to this video so many times I am going to go ahead and thank you now. Thank you for sharing this wonderful knowledge with me.
For people who lose accuracy when they speed up the arpeggios i have an other tips : focus on where your pinky has to go at the end of each arpeggios and you’ll be able to speed it up. Gl
ive never understood piano better man!! You explained these like a pro and even just 4 minutes in youve explained so many things that arent even rushed this video is great man keep it up
Too hard for me yet, but man you are a GREAT teacher. Love the way you present this too. Synthesia + Hand position. I dont think most youtube piano channels have the hand position part, which is actually VERY VERY important especially for people who's trying to learn themselves.
