How to Play Piano: Piano Lesson #15

[charlieinjesus]

God bless you dude...

[5454CkMac]

So I have a couple question... In maybe the last video or the one before you said that if we were still interested, we needed to get piano lessons. So do I now need to invest on getting lessons from someone in person than on here? Will I not learn how to play piano from these videos? Also, should I only watch one lesson per day, or does it matter?

~Thanks:) you've helped bunches

[GMSSteven]

[hellofellow13]

[tahelk]

I'm enjoying all your videos by far.

I'm amazed from your tolerance and teaching skills.

Can you recommend on a musical history book? or cds that represent every period?

Thanks again for everything,

Tahel

[marcusphotina]

I must say I am impressed with your knowledge in the area of piano and piano music history etc. Good video!

[lgx22]

Finally.. audio for Lesson#13 is so blur and #14 is untracable, maybe you would want a retake on #13 i think it would do wonders with this cybershot =)

You teach well and i'm glad you found this sony device

Cheers

[CONGKAMAEL]

You are good as always!!!

[chevaleau]

I love your videos but this one is hard to follow with the music...I am not an native English speaker.

[clarinetplayer94]

I am a troubled man with a tortured soul. All those who love me love me because of my music. When my hearing left my sorrow increased. If ever an artist was acquainted with grief it was me. The power my music can have on the listener is astonishing. Those who listen are aware that they are not alone. For Beethoven is with them!

Beethovens sorrow.

^_^ I though i would put this. :) L.V. Beethoven is my favoret composer. :)

[glomuscarotidea]

thank you for all yor effort. Your viedeos are truely enjoyable :D!

[Lagellys]

informative :)

[djalexutz]

very useful lesson, i actually wrote this stuff down :)

you managed to explain this stuff in 20 mins while our music teacher tried for 2 years and failed lol

[Lypur]

lol...2 years? hmmm, well thanks for the big compliment!

[Marnex13]

Do you like W.A. Mozart?

[Lypur]

yes, i do ^_^

[gabefox]

who doesn´t?

Nice job on the classes!!

[External7]

YEA!

[ewikerifer]

you are doing a good job keep doing what you are doing

[MichaelAstrom]

I think some modern composers stick out and are really good. For exampel Yann Tiersen and the song "Rue des cascades". Very emotional pices of work I think. What do you think about his work? It would be nice to hear you play some from his work, that would kind of sweep the "dust" from all the old stuff, you refearing to.

[mirzajustin]

I M still here my friend...God help me ...thanks again for your course, you are coll....GBY

[thekat67]

If you like chopin so much, Do a lesson and teach us a bit of Nocturne in Bb

[mayoba]

Hi! Well, great class this one!

Do you know a book I can read that illustrate or deepen on this?

Thanks again!

[aahar1]

can i learn piano just by doing all of the scales alone and learning some piano songs? I purchased a scale book like you said and i am wondering if this is all i need to become a professional keyboard player

[Depo007]

The best advice I can give is to practice diligently. Even when you don't feel like continuing or you feel like it's not getting anywhere it is! Practice, practice, practice.

[Jayhawkblue]

I really like this lesson quite a bit. The history is very interesting and informative.

Excellent job again!

[Lypur]

glad you enjoyed it:)

[fixxerhummer]

hi all, these lessons are greaaaaaaaaaaat and thank u man for recording them, just a quest. when i download this one (lesson 15) i just have 102 kb downloaded any one helps me to download it , plezzzzzzzzz

[Lypur]

download it??? i don't really understand this? usually you just stream the videos from youtube:P

[Quarkinator2]

not sure if you were kidding there but there are ways to download youtube videos via certain programs/websites.

I just take down notes with certain lessons :p

I'm still trying to catch up with em (almost there) but have you discussed composing (original stuff) or were the music theory parts in the earlier vids enough?

[Lypur]

Hey, Yea i know you can download videos with programs out there. As for the theory. there's still alot to know. Especially if you want to compose there are LOTS of things to know!

[paranormaalutrecht]

Chopin's piano concert......... I hear on the background :)

nice to see you do this kind of things..

Greetz from Holland (The Netherlands)

[iskeypx]

whoa!!! ur fine now!!! i thought canon in d minor wil be played in ur nxt vid!!! lol hehe, good thing they didnt, cause i wanted to learn more...

[ai1888]

You never mentioned about composers like Yanni :(

[Larraby999]

Since you have a new digital cam that takes nice vids, perhaps, you would consider re-shooting earlier lessons that had horrible vid quality.

[dermitnernase]

why...?

You understand the meaning...and I didn´t  think that he has the bordedom to re-record 14 Lessons...

[Lypur]

thanks man, you're completely right on that;)....i wouldn't want to re-shoot perfectly fine videos, when i could be making new ones

[LarcenCeil]

yayyyyyyy!!!!!!!!!!another one!

[lovemunb]

background music ,good!

[ssegal35]

thanks for the lesson.

[captivating87]

ohh snap! a new lesson, and your getting all hightech on us w/the intro and the background music... ohh and your camera took an amazing vid, nice andrew.

[shorelinetrance]

sweeet thank you

[Loquem]

Background music may be good on some videos and when learning some things but think about it. We are talking MUSIC here, and he is demonstrating MUSIC. So how can you concentrate on MUSIC when other MUSIC is being played in the background. Sorry but for me, OTHER MUSIC is a distraction when I am concentrating on MUSIC!

[tinkerchel]

hi there!

just saw the msg you left on my profile. I've already watched and commented this vid "3_3

you need more coffee..haha

[Lypur]

oh, by the way the BGM is Chopin's e minor concerto No1 first movement.

[Lypur]

yea, i put the BGM in because i was talking for a good 20 minutes here...i thought people would get bored, so i thought i'd put little nice music softly in the background..do you guys think it was a bad idea?

[Richinator2000]

nice picture and sound quality - i wanna sony, too...

:(

keep it up, man. and the background music is fine.

[Blankiet]

great the lessons are not for me, but you got the new camera so can you play some pieces and record them. And btw i got the hanon book for my technique, indeed easy to find on the internet.

[tinkerchel]

like the walking dog example!! what's the BG music?

[Loquem]

Why the background music? It detracts from what you are saying. Please get rid of it!

[morcoschris]

I loved the background music. They say when there's music in the background it helps you to focus during study...keep it please!
