This is a program called Synthesia. You just need to download the song in midi format, and add it to synthesia, it's easy and I really like this program. There are a lot of websites to download songs in midi format. Greetings!! (:

[tracylynnw]

@piped95 It's called Synthesia, just google "Sythesia Piano". It has lots of midi files included, and it's free for the most part, but you can pay for it to unlock the sheet music, plus you can google search and download midi files that you wanna learn, and add them to the program :) It works great!

[Apophis88]

[angelprincess2319]

Truthfully, Beethoven wrote this for a 12 year old girl.

[007emeric]

this song is a piece of true music

art

[bobert551]

57 dislikes??? ummm I WANT TO HEAR WHY THEY DONT LIKE IT!!! (then shove a broom up their ass... the bristle end)....

[LlamaDungeon]

You're missing 2/3 of the song (aka the 2nd and 3rd movements). ;) Seriously though, you really should specify "1st movement"t.

[MyHeroofwar]

And if we cant play this that's why Beethoven was the best Musician with the piano of all time then it was Mozart.

[MyHeroofwar]

We got 10 fingers dummy

[KittyKatKairi4]

I love this song, it reminds me of Hamtaro :3

[urworsethanshit]

What program is this?

[casperlok2dbrain]

@urworsethanshit synthesia, download it for free . .

[LawlessTomb]

CAN YOU GUYS FUCKING SLOW DOWN THEIS VIDEOS FOR ONCE PLEASE!?

[MrChrisl182]

does anyone else hate the ad at the beginning blocking the keys?

[EMCardona1]

your desire to be overwhelmed and quit is greater then your urge to want to learn and play.

[inritus01]

@kingofcha00 Yes, on the Beethoven's scary movie !

[inritus01]

@NickolaySheitanov. You can call it XWZTWXKLMBLEBLE if you want. ;-)

[inritus01]

@getsum911 This is "Synthesia"; it's free but with the Demo you won't have all the musics you want. To get them, you must pay. Too bad ! :-$

[getsum911]

awesome, wat is the name of that program/website?

[RUSSIANASSASSIN117]

beethoven hade alot of fingers i cab still play this :)

[kingofcha00]

Wow I remember hearing this on a scary movie

[Ruthski01]

Oh my god i'm only 15, and can't read music, but I can do this! You guys expect everything to be so easy. You just have to keep practising and suddenly it wont be so hard any more. I found it hard at the stat too

#.

[Jennamomo]

Sounds like twilight :)

[lukdib1]

its actually called moonlight staccato

[RosetitiNguyen]

This is not written for human hand...

[Thepurebloodspirit]

while i watch this i keep thinking 'he's gonna miss, that one... oh, he's gonna miss the next one'

[FRIEDFISHPLZ]

Self taught is hard

[hanspeter2210]

@siraleckingofterrors

In Germany, we call this tone an "H". A "B" is half a tone under the H

[Cantora7789]

just so u know everyone, u HAVE to learn like a bunch of classical songs so you can get trained on how to play it right, then you can play your super mario themes and whatever :)

[amongsttheeIwalk]

[marcela3125588371]

[thatswhatshesaid910]

This song wasn't meant to be played quickly.

[eDwarD3771]

56 sordos

[Acompony]

The volume sucks

[UnSuffering]

Almost 100% correct. Maybe like 95%

[drauw]

H is the same as B, it excists.

[conventoyscape]

@nalosful just enough

[Forgot5678]

@nalosful It's not hard if you have big hands like me! :)

[Forgot5678]

@nalosful It's not that hard if you gave big hands!

[izzyjamm4]

...of the people who would have outright condemned my statement as the musings of some dumb fool. Thank you.

[izzyjamm4]

... and total alienation from the true essence of the piece. This next part, however is my opinion; It is better to stay away from that fine line than to tread right on it and lose the essence of the piece. However there still is a difference between expressiveness and playing it incorrectly. The last thing I want you to keep in mind in reading this is that I didn't really say all of this towards the person who played this piece; I said it for the comment I would've made except for all...

[izzyjamm4]

I was going to give some constructive criticism to the player of this piece, but I know every single person who has ever said something good about this interpretation would jump down my throat and call me a troll. So whatever. But I will tell all of those out there who I just described this; The composers who write these pieces wrote their pieces to be played in very specific ways. They did leave plenty of room for variation, but there is a fine line between continuing to play it correctly...

[nalosful]

how many fingers do you think we have??' omg 

[mgospeed31]

@nalosful LOLOL

[HarvieKevin]

@nalosful made me laugh LOL :D

[JJCLover64]

@nalosful My mate can play this at school...with 8 fingers and 2 thumbs.

[nalosful]

@JJCLover64 omg really i have those same

[JJCLover64]

@nalosful Good! I'd be worried if you didnt.

[nalosful]

@JJCLover64 u know what

[nalosful]

@JJCLover64 u know what i was worried that u dont know how to count

[JustBeCrazie]

@nalosful it looks harder than it iz ;)

[flopsterj]

@nalosful lol! Like justbecrazie said it is not as hard as it looks. I'm 12 and only grade 2 piano and I can play it. XD

[nalosful]

@flopsterj omg im 11 and i know how to play the piano but theat is not my type

[flopsterj]

@nalosful

haha, I also like to play fur elise and clair de lune (except I can only play the first page of these pieces because they get a bit to hard :D)

[nalosful]

@flopsterj oooh ya i see that

[samtoca]

@nalosful ten?

[nalosful]

@samtoca oooh!!! i thought we have 43 fingers

[myrhair]

@nalosful its not its that you use index and thumb for the main part and use ring middle finger and oinky for the other parts it just take practice and you eventually get it rite

[nalosful]

@myrhair i dont care

[sonysucksshit1]

@nalosful actually this song is pretty easy

[nalosful]

@sonysucksshit1 i dont care

[9Foxstails]

@sonysucksshit1 it is.... but for total beginner it's not...

[Spazecees]

@9Foxstails Than practice some more and come back later, or just keep on trying, It's pretty easy actually.

[9Foxstails]

@Spazecees I will ) I just began playing like few days ago ... and learning by myself =P so I'll take my time on this one

[MrPoppy32]

@sonysucksshit1 only part of the song is easy. the 3rd movement is waaaaaaaaaaay faster than this. and more complicated

[pandamato]

@sonysucksshit1 try to memorize the song u cocky dipshit, and i bet you played just the first three measures and yea that part is easy but there is a whole othe 5 min u wanna consider.

[Africanpeachez]

@nalosful you only need about 8 fingers to play this song :/

[nalosful]

@Africanpeachez OOOOOOOOOOOOOOKKKKKK I DONT CARE IT IS NOT MY STILE!!!!!!!

[narutojasmine]

@nalosful all u need is 10 lol just practice practice until it sounds good :3 its kinda dificult for me to play piano since i dont hAve long fingers >.< but i still love the piano :3

[cheungkent2004]

@nalosful I HAV 10

[brookie2664]

@nalosful I can play this, you only need 7 actually.

3 on the left hand, 2 for the octaves, one for the occasional middle note,

4 on the right hand, three for the triplelets, and one for the main melody.

When u get those passages up and down just hop around on 2 fingers.

Easy. =P

[lwm3398]

@nalosful 10. Glad I could help. CAPTAIN OBVIOUS, AWAY!

[runforestrun1]

@nalosful umm, well if u knew how to play piano, this song is not that hard to learn. i learned it in about 15 minutes, and had no trouble with any of the chords. it's all pretty basic.

[ChaosVonGin]

@nalosful There is nothing there that couldn't be played with two full functional hands.

[99ruskipete]

@nalosful this is entirely possible with 10 fingers

[DaisukeChanx3]

@nalosful Are you fucking stupid...?

[nalosful]

@DaisukeChanx3 Sorry u r the fucking stupid by asking me that 

[DaisukeChanx3]

@nalosful o_o

[WereCreed]

@nalosful soooooooo you are?

[nalosful]

@WereCreed u didnt understan fucking little kidd!!!

[WereCreed]

@nalosful Uh huh sure sorry bout upsetting you and making you piss your self.. I hope you get that problem taken care of hun.

[Thickpaper1]

i like how the PC has some dynamic added to it

[trek456]

tahnk you sooo much man

[FunkyBridges]

I want this midi file. The version of Moonlight Sonata that comes on Synthesia is wrong : (

[kuntetify]

@jordus what is the name of this application to play a song on piano?

[animaniacs143]

i so love moonlight sonata but i cant play it coz it looks like id be needing 3 hands to play this..wouldn't that make me a freak..

[yujinkang123456]

cool song



[LadyIdle93]

I personally like it better in C, not in C#

[igmz777]

@jordus

Can you play piano with the computer keyboard on Synthesia?

[KingofKnots]

around 0:58 or 0:59 you play a C where an H would be the right key... but nice work! (i thumbed up)

[siraleckingofterrors]

@KingofKnots and what exactly does an H sound like?

[KingofKnots]

@siraleckingofterrors it's the key right left to the C. What do you call it? i know that there are different names for some keys.

[siraleckingofterrors]

@KingofKnots pretty sure everyone calls that a B

[KingofKnots]

@siraleckingofterrors k... what everyone calls B where i live is the first black key to find at the left of a C... so it must be written as a diminished H (ma H is the key right to the left of C). where i live, the twelve half tones are called C, cis, D, dis, E, F, fis, G, gis, A, b, H (white keys written as capitals). what's your order, beginning with C?

[siraleckingofterrors]

@KingofKnots black keys are flats/sharps.... white keys are naturals - A, B, C, D, E, F, G.

[KingofKnots]

@siraleckingofterrors k... "my" C dur/major scale has not flats or sharps... so does "your" A dur/major scale also have no black keys? then it would just be a shift of key notation.

[siraleckingofterrors]

@KingofKnots this isn't about the C major scale. This is about the fact that apparently you have a note called H. I've never heard of that in my entire life. A through G. Each note has a flat and a sharp. Some of those flats and sharps are the same as other notes (i.e. Cb is also B, Ab is also G#, stuff like that). Where is the confusion? I'm not trying to be rude, it's just that you're not making any sense.

[KingofKnots]

@siraleckingofterrors I don't feel offended at all. my problem is that i don't know if our different key names is also shift (i mean that your A is also my A and so on.) ... so to eliminate all worries about key differences, what i call H is the key 2 half tones under the deepest tone in the first accord (and of course the octave above).

[KingofKnots]

@siraleckingofterrors an other possible description of "H" is: the second octave of the piece being played by the left hand.

[siraleckingofterrors]

@KingofKnots all i'm saying is that where i'm from "H" doesn't exist...

[youngjoon]

@siraleckingofterrors are you talking about the planet earth?

[siraleckingofterrors]

@youngjoon yeah you have H notes, too?

[beepee2005]

@siraleckingofterrors @KingofKnots After using wikipedia, some countries use "H" for our B(flat). just to clear things up. ;D

[NickolaySheitanov]

@siraleckingofterrors i call it Si

[siraleckingofterrors]

@NickolaySheitanov ok well clearly the notes are called different things everywhere lol
