I have been watching your videos for about a year now and I truly enjoy them. It is clear that you are doing what you love and you have inspired people to strive. I am 74 years young and started formal piano lessons about 1 1/2 years ago. I try to practice daily for an hour, but often the time gets away from me and two hours have passed. Thank you for the videos! I am a martial arts instructor, focusing on Tai Chi and I find that I get the same calming sensation playing the piano as I do practicing Tai Chi. Thank you, again!

[@SarammalVarghese]

Please explain clearly

[@matt_phistopheles]

This song was one of the main reasons why I wanted to learn play to play piano (I'm usually guitar player). I love the piano music of Satie, Grieg and Tschaikowski.

[@CaptApril123]

Guitar and piano seem to complement each other really well, I've only been learning the piano for 8 months but notice transposing between the two is very common.

[@PianoteOfficial]

all three are such beautiful composers!

[@johnnyx53]

@Amni Yusoff Good luck to you hope you stay with it it will be rewarding

[@lastbornrelic3430]

U said that 4 months ago now you've Been playing for nearly exactly 1 year in this time what have you accomplished and have you ever taken a long break or just stopped

[@liambeme]

3 of the best, Chopin and Debussy are also my bois

[@LeighDWYC]

This is my favourite piano piece. Almost every time I hear it I either get chills down one side or it brings a tear to my eye. It’s amazing. On a good day, both

[@johnagusta1500]

One of my favs, I play this everyday and was the first song I learned as I taught myself piano. John Tesh has a nice arrangement of this as well. He called it "In the Comfort of Angels" on his The Power of Prayer and Worship album.

[@PianoteOfficial]

ill check it out!

[@Overkill_dnb]

I agree that is a super duper pretty song

[@amaarkshiir9289]

Erik Satie's music is simple yet complicated. Mixed of all emotions.

[@normajanderson7304]

Thank you for this. I am an old lady and working on memorizing a few pieces I like. Although it is taking me many many sessions to learn this, I never tire of following along with you! From Rhode Island

[@confuinc92704]

So glad I found you on this channel. Thank you for being so patient with us.

[@paddylandreville8501]

You are an awesome person, the perfect teacher, stay sharp and amazing, no pun intended.

We'll never be flat!

Would you say that pun was accidental? I mean, it felt so natural

[@lindaclairesartori]

Yes, stay sharp, don't be flat! Thanks for your beautiful work!

[@lindaclairesartori]

Life without music would B-flat! (I want musical notation capability on my iPhone. 🎼🎵 is all I've got.)

[@chattiertooth62]

@@Cologram I agree it does, I should compose a liszt of music puns.

[@mvdeehan]

I just started playing so really way beyond me at present but you are inspiring. I will save this video. I always loved the haunting melody of this piece. Thank you.

[@syafiqsuhaimi5324]

How's it going man

[@PaulDenman]

I loved this when I first heard it in 1980 as the B-Side to Gary Numan's "We Are Glass" single. We had it played at our wedding in 1999. I've now decided to learn how to play it - so wish me luck(!) and thanks for the upload 🙂

[@Jason-cm6uh]

Jerrod. Whatever your paying this woman, it ain't enough. Give her a raise! She has made this channel

[@ingeweeda]

in this weird year, most of my gigs and classes as a percussionist dropped, so hardly any income. rough in a way, BUT my deep deep wish to learn to play the piano got at once lotsa space, time and hours to devellop!!! now 5 lessons later and about 4 hrs practice a day.... Satie is one of my main studies... wow! you explain it very well!!! (bach, jarrett and glass are also my main studies)... again: you are a great teacher, even for a non native english speaker, good to follow.

[@johnbuckingham4608]

I'm learning Gym-1 and it helps me learn the notes on the piano. Piano is a good way to get through the Pandemic. I need new glasses to see the sheet music better.

[@mistermikeyjay]

I love your pace, tone and way of teaching. Very clear and concise. I think I can do open heart surgery if you did a tutorial. Thanks for sharing, have a good day 😊

[@truffleblox4605]

Took a break from Piano for a long time... I’m thinking of coming back now. You are the perfect tool to becoming a pianist! ❤️

[@truffleblox4605]

@Dean Clark True... :( You are the perfect TEACHER! :)

[@grandstandforpiano1822]

It's worth doing it all over again!

[@MB-en3do]

I year ago heard this piece on the radio and have been in love with it ever since. Thank your for sharing this video and the sheet music! I will not stop until I have mastered this! Thank you :)

[@in_the_moment3875]

after a few months watching and learning this I can finally say I can play it! Now I just have to practice it. I didn’t know this was a simplified version either. Oh well!

[@stevenaustin4591]

LOVE this song, Erik Satie's music is Awesome! :)

[@beachlife8367]

Man, Erik is one of my favorites! Heard him 4 1st time a couple of years ago and I was like, "Oh, ok. I'm liking this!"

[@PianoteOfficial]

truly!

[@rayvinhubilla2289]

I love the way you teach piano ❤

[@winterheat]

8:43 somehow I felt this is a lot of "there is nothing we can do about it, the society is just so harsh... we just go by the day by day things and it is like that..." but Lisa added quite a bit of grace to that... actually, Moonlight Sonata 1st Movement is feeling sad to the world, with a lot of emotion, and Gymnopédie is look at it with a somewhat cold eyes... this is my interpretation

[@keithkunikida1222]

The song actually hasn’t end yet, you play the piece as Lisa demonstrated but you have to learn the second ending which ends on a D minor, Satie tends to get weird with his chordal structure in his pieces so don’t feel bad for not being able to memorise the piece.

[@nareshfinacialstories]

Today I watched first time your video I am 38 years old and want to learn piano I believe I will after seeing your videos You are awesome and I am very very thankful to you

[@andyadogs]

What a lovely piece of music ❤

[@eagereyes]

Beautiful! Your lessons and sheet music are an incredible resource, much appreciated!

[@PianoteOfficial]

thanks for watchin!

[@paulmoadibe9321]

@0:12 it's pronounced like: Gym-no-pay-dee and you got it right 👍

[@DaiBei]

I got as a present the double LP of Reinbert De Leeuw with the early piano works of Erik Satie 30 years ago. It became my favorite music for a year. Since my brother was a pianist, there was a grand piano in the house. I couldn't play but I loved Gnossiene no. 1 so much, that I learned to play it note by note until it sounded great. De Leeuw plays it slowly so it was possible. That's the only piece I can play. If you don't now this version of Reinbert De Leeuw, give it a try. It's heavenly.

[@stainlessstill1993]

This song came pre-loaded on my Yamaha CSP-170. It's one of the easier pieces to play when you just follow the falling lights. I play about 40 songs well after 7 months of practice and there's hundreds more to learn. Videos like this help with my fingering technique and provide lots of info for someone teaching himself at home like me!

[@C-DM96]

Would love to hear your take on digital vs acoustic, not necessarily just for beginners but long term also or more experience players 😊

[@artist1138]

Not Herbie Hancock from the Method, this is a great practice and gave me an idea of where I am. This showed me I know the scale formula well enough to figure out a scale I've never tried before. And I followed your right hand well enough, about 65% but still encouraging. I first heard this piece in The Royal Tennenbaums, probably my favorite selection next to Van Morrison.
