Finally a simple clear tutorial with no talking and repeating! thank you!!!!

[@janepianotutorials]

this is the best camera set up. my tutorials are for those who play by ear or follow the sheetmusic. If you do not read music yet, i made 3 silly lessons to get you started. In the meantime, focus on my finger movement, not what's under them. good luck :)

If ratings hadn't been disabled for this video, I would have clicked like button.

[@Oxyquark]

Thanks, excellent tutorial, the speed is exactly what is needed to be able to learn this play without music sheet. and your cover at the right speed complete very well this tutorial. please continue.

[@user02931]

Thank you so much for this I am absolutely in love with this song as soon as I get it all down I will post a cover of it! Thanks again :)

[@nezo6969]

Thank you very much for this tutorial, it's a very beautiful piece. I'm sure you play it wonderfully at full speed. Thank you again.

[@steppenwolfa]

merci encore et toujours, vous êtes la meilleure...

[@jillpittman]

SO HELPFUL!! Some of the music math in there in 3/4 and how the left and right line up was mystifying me-- this is wonderful. Thank you!

[@janepianotutorials]

Glad it helped, Jill. Thanks for taking time to write!

[@Tahnetouge]

You can always count on Jane using correct transcriptions/arrangements! Keep up the good work! I love your tutorials and thank you for all the hard work you put in them.

[@janepianotutorials]

Thank you, Waterfall, for your kind comment. Viewers who make requests must include sheet music, so they deserve that credit, not I :)

[@Shiran96]

Thank you so much! It is really clear and simple to learn from. Also, you play it beautifully. I'm using both this video and the faster one. (:

[@Liberozeferinorosa]

Teaching through your titoriais songs that we love so much and you teach us very love and affection! thank you so much love for all that your effort and dedication ...! Hugs and kisses of thy little fan that sends comments! Libero / RS.

[@kelly1995ish]

It is not an easy song, but I think I can play it with the slow version...thank you so much for the tutorial... !!

[@anou8]

Thank you so much your are an amazing player !

[@madman7923]

thanks for making this video! I think im going to tab this out then practice it a thousand times. Yea Lachry i was thinking the song sounded really nice slowed down, it sounds like a whole other song played at full speed lol

[@chocolatedynamite93]

thank you so much this is one of my favorite songs :)

[@Oxananka]

very good tutorial!!! thanx so much!!!

[@janepianotutorials]

You're welcome, Guido. Yes, use the pedal if it enhances the sound and mood. But let go before the sound gets "muddy". Trial and error by listening. pedaling can come before or after a note plays.

[@cristhkurono]

yes, thank you so much, i'm learning this beautyfull song with this tutorial :3

[@AquilesMeoyo]

Gracias a este tutorial aprendi a tocar casi perfectamente esa cancion. Muchas Gracias .

[@Nimron12]

Thank you, I love this, And your hands aren't ugly !!

[@LachrymoseMelon]

am I the only one who finds the song even more beautiful slower? It sounds more sad and.. cautious. it's nice.

[@zmw96]

Thanks:) Ive learn't this now- just need to work on perfecting it!

[@soccertomy2005]

hi thanks so much for these videos they really do help a lot

[@pbronx]

exceptional wonderful performance. Thank you you're simply genial! It's useful and precious! Thank

[@janepianotutorials]

oh my, thanks Paolo

[@pinnespiser]

Thanks again. I dont even have to check who has made the video when I see those beautifull hands. Much love to you.

[@janepianotutorials]

pinnespiser thank you :)

[@Viktoriya556]

This is great, thank you!!

[@ReginaVaganovna]

That's great! Thanks a lot.

[@metaliko400]

thanks a lot! hope I can learn it soon

[@janepianotutorials]

@zmw96 my levels (my guess) correspond to the number of years one has been playing piano. ability varies from person to person, so it is impossible to be exact. give the piece a try, if you find it too difficult, practice an easier piece and come back to this later. have fun :)

[@eldadmi]

i love u for this thanx :) you make the impossible possible

[@gspanjers]

Hey Jane, thanks for another great tutorial. I have a question though if you don't mind. Do you use any pedals during this song? For instance in m3 to m4. I get the feeling that if I don't sustain the A, that it ends to abrupt before I can make the switch to the BEC chord(LH). Maybe it's just because i'm practicing at a really slow speed and I don't make the switch fast enough. But do you have any tips on the pedals, do you use any? Thanks for the lesson!

[@esppiral]

I'm so thankful for your tutorial, I'm still learning it but I've uploaded a video of how I play it so far, many mistakes, but with time I'll improve. Thanks.

[@billiegoth9]

When I saw this video, the first thing i thought was: "i have seen these fingers in any other place" That´s true :) thanks to teach me play "Nothing else matters" from metallica and now this song ^^

[@Koenneok]

Wow, well done man! this music makes me feel good! it takes some practice, but its really cool! thumbs up ;)

[@janepianotutorials]

@empiresands fingering varies from person to person. different editors use different fingering. one must choose what is most comfortable for their hands.

[@PatrikS1994]

You are awesome man! =D

[@Nina_Maris]

omg, i love you, THANKSS!!!!

[@ManzoCoralie]

Merci pour la vidéo !

[@belenmanzano8708]

Thankssssssssss! i know play piano and i love this song,so thank you

[@annag.44562]

Wow! Really nice, thanks!

[@janepianotutorials]

Thank you, Lily :))

[@Samburger13]

thank you very much!!!!

[@sonnenglanz]

wow thank you soo much :33

[@janepianotutorials]

@silentscreamthroe practicing scales and arpeggios each day definitely helps. i made tutorials on those. start with C Major.

[@LocoMouse]

thanks very helpful:)

[@darkbol514]

muy buen tuto felicidades amigo espero subas del tema de la pelicula UP

[@caiomoura7177]

It's hard to control the dynamics. I can play the whole song at the right tempo, but the last part is a mess because I can't play the left hand fast and soft at the same time, so the accompaniment and the melody are mingling

[@janepianotutorials]

As you have discovered, playing softly or quietly takes tremendous control. Just practice the LH part, try to be as quiet as possible. Start slowly, gradually get faster. Using a metronome helps.

[@silentscreamthroe]

Thank you so much! This helped me a lot with the left hand part from 3:28 on. Know I know with which fingers to push the keys! It's still hard though, I need to practice so I stop missing the right notes -.- Do you have any recommenditions how to practice that part properly?

[@LocoMouse]

Again already said it BUT YOU RAWK ive had lessons when i was younger. My teacher tought me by copying i know thats bad but thats how i wanted it. Now from these vids i can take it over easy. Thank you so much again and the people that joke about your hands dunno how to play this piece propper anyway ;) keep it up! Working on ludovico einaudi - Oltremare atm very nice piece you might like it to. Should listen to it very nice! ok bb :P

[@MCHL82]

A mi me gusta la banda sonora de Amélie . Merci pour tout!

[@janepianotutorials]

@Xlay16 congrats. hard work and determination often succeeds. still, try to build a foundation by practicing easier pieces (while reading the score) and do scales,etc.

[@Maria.0.1]

I know this is sort of an old video but I just Wanted to say this is really useful even though I'm just a beginner and I learn piano just by using KZbin. I'm sort of stuck with the part that comes after 4:10 D: i practice a lot but I have to admit that I havent been able to pass it yet. All what I have learnt to play from this song is thanks to you! Thank you very much. Wish me luck with this piece :P

[@Maria.0.1]

It wasnt 4:10 it is 4:33 the part that I havent been able to pass through.

[@janepianotutorials]

JustMariaLine I'll take a look at that part later and see whether I can think of anything to help

[@janepianotutorials]

Jane the LH part is similar to arpeggios, which all piano students must practice. Click my name > website > scales and arpeggios (side bar menu). Those are invaluable in building technique. Try not to rush learning, build a strong foundation. In three years you will find this piece easy :)

[@dragon1xxx]

keep it up perfcto ^^ you are like me ^_^

[@janepianotutorials]

also, my tutorials are for those who play be ear or follow the sheetmusic.

[@janepianotutorials]

you're welcome, thanks for writing.

[@janepianotutorials]

thank you

[@janepianotutorials]

glad to help :)

[@janepianotutorials]

@zmw96 have to experiment and listen. pedal to enrich the sound, not "muddy" it. some classical music scores have pedaling marks, you can learn from those. look for a beginner or intermediate level book. good luck :)

[@SHATENKA474]

excellent work

[@Beerolino82]

Thank you my Lady ! =)

[@wuweiter]

thanks very much,very useful!

[@janepianotutorials]

you're welcome :) glad it helps

[@yokeharry4703]

Good job. nice song . thank you

[@janepianotutorials]

Thank you :)

[@janepianotutorials]

Hi Caroline. my level 6 is a guess that one with 6 years of serious playing (to me that means 1 hr per day), should be able to learn the piece easily. meaning okay in 1 week, good in 2. for one who has not played that long, learning the piece is not impossible, but it might take a month or 2.

[@janepianotutorials]

@ImmaSurvive you are kind and have great manners :)

[@zmw96]

Hey:) Thank you for your lovely videos! They have proven very helpful! I'm finding it hard to find sheet music and I know you throw away the sheet music for copyright reasons. But I was just wondering if you could tell me where you use sustain in this music? Where/ when would it be appropriate to use it? Thank you once again, and sorry for being a pest! :)

[@janepianotutorials]

that's nice :)

[@zambrabora1217]

çok teşekkürler,harika bir paylaşım...

[@janepianotutorials]

You’re very welcome 😊

[@TheMart5]

@bbdhrggl Should I use the sustain pedal when playing this song? If so, when should we push / release? Your a really good pianist! I really like your videos.

[@314Tesla]

thank you for sharing this :D

[@janepianotutorials]

Kostas K you're welcome, Kostas !

[@kapws_etsi]

is there any excersice to help me play more easily the m65 part at the left hand??

[@janepianotutorials]

one with 6 yrs experience should be able to learn this easily: passable in one week, good in two weeks.

[@thahysjordan6521]

thanks you my friends:D

[@janepianotutorials]

@klumpster11 sorry, i discard as soon as tutorial is done.

[@dedecamion]

great tuto. u really ve pianist hands !

[@janepianotutorials]

@EKGRW10 did he do it yet?

[@yaroslaviptv]

thanks

[@janepianotutorials]

@Frank332666 it means someone who has been playing piano for six years should be able to learn this easily

[@janepianotutorials]

@Nosensev57 what does "clue on my message" mean? sorry to disappoint, but i did not feel "attacked" in any way. it is unrealistic to think one can be always better than others. I do not want to be better than others, but I want to do my best. Post sheets? Forget it. YT cites my tutorials with copyright infringements. I have to file disputes often to keep my channel going.

[@janepianotutorials]

where do you get that idea? :) my name is no secret

[@janepianotutorials]

@klumpster11 i have no idea whether this version is "real". yours actually sounds more exciting :) does it have an arranger's name? try to stress the first beat of the 5 vs 6. i made a tutorial on how to play x notes against y notes (website "scales and more" in menu bar), but timing need not be precise on romantic music. perhaps a viewer will lead you to this score. good luck.

[@janepianotutorials]

@atlantisforce i taught in the U.S. :)

[@janepianotutorials]

@SimplyNotTheBest22 wow! I'm envious :)

[@janepianotutorials]

@thispawn ahem, level is a skill level and means somethin'... but determination and hard work do overcome hurdles. it is always best to learn things the proper way in order to build a strong foundation. then someday soon you will not need tutorials.

[@janepianotutorials]

@Nosensev57 why wait? just do it. :) but, telling the notes is abetting a bad habit. those of us who read music should encourage others to learn, makes sense?

[@janepianotutorials]

@nindocomic clicked the thumbs up by accident. Anyway, I avoid the pedal on tutorials so the sound of each note is clearer. :)

[@ArravTwitch]

Good toturial! But can you please make a video of The Piano Amazing short song? Would be awesome! :)

[@janepianotutorials]

you're welcome. you are a good student :)

[@janepianotutorials]

@matejmuzatko have no idea

[@janepianotutorials]

you're welcome. try to play along with a metronome, set it slow, then gradually increase the tempo each practice. the result will sound much better at an even tempo. I checked your channel. nice. listened to your river flows piece. good job. I do not want to tell you which notes to play because you must learn to read music if you enjoy playing the piano, that's the only way to be independent. bye.

[@janepianotutorials]

you're welcome. I played it at full speed, but I should have really practiced it first.

[@zmw96]

Hey I was wondering if you could tell me how this piece is level 6 and how?:) I don't have a teacher and try and learn by ear- and use your vids for reference so just wondering thats all:)

[@nindocomic]

exacly that it just was an accident :( but finding your video is a best accident (i founded looking for the other one XD)

[@darkbol514]

de todos los tutos que pude ver me quedo con este ya voy avanzando la parte dificil solo me falta la ultima parte del subidon y el final lento que es facil.

[@nolohagonica]

Hi Jane. If this beautiful melody is level 6 that means it is thought to be played by someone that has studied piano for at least 3 years?

[@liviscrazy]

@bbdhrggl please!! is there anyway you could send me or tell me where to find the sheet of this song?

[@txixuan]

you have beautiful hands

[@axel_person]

Thats the Only thing inthis super easy song that makes it "jazzy" if you miss this you dont understand anything about music.

[@lggrhdbb]

@GemuteerdeBaardaap but its sheetmusic is a universal language, that is why it is a great idea to learn to read music :)

[@janepianotutorials]

think so, i listened to the link, and know i made a tutorial for it.

[@janepianotutorials]

thank you. distorted view though.

[@janepianotutorials]

@Eva4955 lol, you like writing to yourself? with young ones as you, Greece is in deep trouble.

[@janepianotutorials]

don't know which song you mean, so please follow request instructions (description link leads to website)
