Another beautiful Mille Echi cover appears what makes me happy

[@Stigggs]

Beautiful!

[@charlesalessandri3286]

I had forgotten this captivating and magnificent theme! Your adaptation for the piano is wonderful and transcribes the harmonies and the "colour" of Morricone's music wonderfully! Brava a lei e molte grazie !🤗🎶

[@HettySponselee]

Molto grazie Charles!! 😃 It is indeed a captivating and great theme, which was perfect for La Piovra!

Oh, God! A Human can does fantastic things. Best version on youtube - fantastic piano skill. How long does it take to learn to play this song like you for someone who is just starting to play the piano now? 5 years?

[@HettySponselee]

Thanks😃, and 5 years for Mille Echi could be possible, when you have time to practise a lot☺️, other pieces like Deborah's theme are easier of course...

Hi , i have Seen you made a beautiful Version of and Then i kissed him ! It would be so nice if you can make another Video of it where you Show the Full Time a perspective from above because i would like to learn also the second Part of it and then i could learn it! Do you know what i mean ?( Sorry my english isnt the best 😂) Best regards Lucas

[@HettySponselee]

Ha Lucas, unfortunately it is not possible to film it again because it's filmed and played in a studio. The second part is really more difficult to play then the first part!The only suggestion I have is that you learn note-reading, it is really not that difficult and you can learn new music the best that way! There are many websites for free where you can learn how to read notes.. ( at least in the Netherlands 😊) I am also a pianoteacher and I learn all my students to read music! Good luck and greetings, Hetty

[@lucas.zeichnet9593]

All right than ich will try to learn Reading Notes Thank you 👍

[@alexb6970]

Большое спасибо. Скажите пожалуйста, какое произведение Вам показалось сложнее: Chi Mai или Mille Echi?

[@HettySponselee]

I found Chi Mai more challenging to arrange due to the hand positioning, but harmonically, both pieces are comparable. Both are enjoyable to arrange and attempt to mimic the orchestra as closely as possible on the piano. Greetings Hetty

[@alexb6970]

​@@HettySponseleeИз всех версий Chi Mai, которые исполняют KZbin, Ваша версия самая лучшая, оно и понятно, т.к. сложно играть, чтобы получилось такое красивое звучание.

[@HettySponselee]

Thank you!☺️

[@alexb6970]

​Вы играли Si Muore D'Amore? В аранжировках, кто играет в интернете это произведение, нет красивого аккорда на 1мин. 13сек. Сможете мне помочь с этим аккордом? Спасибо большое .😊

[@HettySponselee]

I'll look it up later, have to teach now and will record Silenzi dopo silenzi this afternoon, I thought it was your suggestion?😊
