  • Awesome tutorial. Watch the previous videos of the series before liking/disliking. You won't regret it.

  • GAAAHH!! i want to play this, but every time i try use both hands, they start shaking and my fingers dont move the way i want them to and it sounds horible -.-. is the any advice for this??

  • WHOever disliked the vid should go see a doctor. Even if this guy helps 1 per thousand of the watchers to develop their talent --probably buried inside them since birth-- then he deserves respect. He's intellectual, he's doing it for free. How many hours did he spend on that! Would you? Thumbs up!!!

  • i guarantee ALL the dislikes are from people just picking up this one video with no prior piano experience nor did they watch the 28 videos you are SUPPOSED to watch before this

  • get a haircut

  • why so many dislikes... somebody is jelous , but realy... it helped me alot

  • i bought a keyboard , and in 3 hours i learned this !! very easy and beautiful !

  • psss, talk louder i think its y computer or this vid but i very very sure its my computer.....:P

  • @DuhCoolAsian No, the video is very low :-)

  • Thank you very much ... I learned this in a month .... I don't have a music school .. it would be nice if you did, and for another part.

  • Andrew, will you be my immortal beloved?

  • Lypur, I don't know if you've been reading comments lately. But I do want to say that you are doing an amazing job and have helped me so much with your lessons. I feel like it helps a lot that you talk throughout the video, it makes the video a lot more entertaining. Thank you!

  • is it just me or does he go on a bit ??=(

  • less talking man seriously

  • I feel like i'm watching a bird

  • 12:20 WHAT ARE U TALKING ABOUT... just shut up and get to the point!!

  • @crazy4corbinbleux no , hes making a vid to teach so he can talk as much as he wants , if u dont like it m u can shut up and go find another vid :)

  • Don't be a victim? Wtf?

  • Great lesson Andrew thank You so much for your work!

  • omg he talk to much

  • almost like "wax on wax off" while rolling the hand and arm

  • dont speak too much man !

  • Apparently my grandfather used to count the pairs of notes after the run on 'e'...there have to be 6 pairs of e-flat and e and he'd yell..."too many" or "too few" at my mother when she was a kid LOL. Now she's obsessive and made me too. :)

  • lol at 9:40..who does it like that haha:D

  • great video ! i am a man from belgium and i am a bigg fan of beethoven. you teach very wel and it is beautiful, i can play the easy version of fur elise, becouse i can't read notes. but i will practice the real part that you have show us ! pleas can you watch my video ? because i want to hear from you if i make mistakes ? i have 2 video's one is not so good but the second one is way much better than the first one... respect for you tallent

  • Thank you, I learned how to play the real one.

  • my keyborad is only 3 octaves :((

  • @butterfly3051991 u can still play jingle bells

  • @1fahad2 I know but it's a shame ... I want to learn the hard stuff

  • Can you to make complete version (with several part)..?

  • ty

    

  • you speak so much... and volume is so low

  • Thanks so much for all of these tutorials Andrew! I've been racing through them obsessively and got to this one within a week. I can play Fur Elise accurately at moderato tempo after a few hours' practice. I haven't practised my scales properly yet, so I'm sure I'll have to return to some of the earlier videos to practise some more. But just spending a few hours playing Fur Elise means that I can now tap my 5th to 2nd fingers on my desk like a galloping horse - I could never do that before! :-)

  • "If you do it all like: *plays* ...That just sounds re-[(tarded!)]... Not the greatest. Holding my tongue there."

    ROFL

    Great lessons, man. Thank you!

  • you are absolutely great sir...thanks for all the lessons...and one thing if you could plz help me out... my left and right co-ordination is not good at all i am playing piano from last three weeks but its not improving i cant play this like you you are doing it..flawless..how you have trained your brain for this. i hope to play like that one day

  • my music teacher learnd the whole song in middle school a week ago she playes it and it was beast

  • Where did you get your book/ music? I have book and know how to play the first easy part (e e flat over and over) but it feels incomplete when I play it with just the part I know. So back to the beginning of my comment where did you get your music?

    And by the way great tutorial.

  • Not sure if someone pointed this out already but your part at 20:40 is wrong....you went from C-G-C to B-G-B for the left hand...its actually suppose to be C-G-C to G-G-B ....You PLAYED it correctly in the next section....but the part at the time i gave was incorrect :)

  • Comment removed

  • can you teach the second part ? you showed it but you didn't teach

    tank's

  • you talk to much get on with the dam lessson lol but thanks man

  • @Susyw123 Sorry but you HAVE to be joking.Seriously D:

  • @Manfi111

    no I'm not

    he's so cute 

  • @Susyw123 Alright then..I taught you were kidding so i said "fail" but sorry If you were serious..

  • Nice! BTW – you can learn to play this song in half the time with new gadget that reads MIDI files.

    Google “Gizmag and PianoMaestro”

  • I have the sheet music for this ,and the beginning is marked "poco moto"

    what does that mean?

  • I cant understand it :(

    I tought E was first///

  • you should do moonlit sonata

  • @jcpizzadude he defantly should

    

  • just excellent! I learnt it in a matter of minutes [= loving the breakdown <3 .. this may be asking for too much but I'd love the whole of the piece to be done =D

  • this is the reason i wanna learn to play piano haha

  • that's the ringtone of my cellphone

  • I takes so long to get to the real part, but its actually pretty good.

  • starts at 8:14

  • This is so different than your other Für Elise tutorial:(

  • you are awesome!

  • WHY CANT I HEAR YOU?????

  • !!!!!thank you !!!!! that was great .......

  • I JUST MADLY LOVE YOU

  • gro fils de pute tu sais même pas expliquer espece de blanc

  • Thanks Andrew for doing this! I couldn't figure out the 5 E's part. I like that fingering!

  • dude, dont apologize lol. you played it amazing 

  • I got the first part but you lost me for the other ones cause no slow close up was shown :(

  • 30 minutos????

  • @soycanallaamuerte wow really, how ?? they should be max 10 min

  • @soycanallaamuerte hes youtube partner. they can have videos longer than 10 min :)

  • You're an awesome teacher. You're videos are the best in this site i think. These videos help a lot of people whom has music in the heart and you helped for us, whom can't afford a teacher!

    God bless!:)

  • this guy is a good piano player, dont get me wrong, but he is a TERRIBLE teacher.

  • he's a pro at the piano but he is weird as hell. LOL

  • I always makes up with the left and right arm playing position

  • you go so fast!!

  • Hi Andrew,

    Thank you so much for your dedication in making these videos. I am a beginner and enjoy all your videos. They are very helpful and your teaching is also great. I would not change anything about the way you do things, so don't read any of the negative comments. Take care..life is too short to worry :)

  • Bar 8th. Your score (mine as well) shows DCE. Some times you play that way but some times you play ECE. I have seen many people doing this and I've also seen different scores some showing DCE and some others ECE. Why is that? What way is the original? I know DCE is more appropriate for the ending but I wonder why it is show a the end of the first part too. (8th bar)

  • I appreciate his attention to detail. That's the reason for the tutorial being 30 minutes long. But it makes the difference in learning to be good and learning to be mediocre.

  • you have awesome videos but I CAN'T HEAR YOU at all.. could you use a mic or something or just go closer to the camera .. it's a little bothering and destroys the whole experience

  • Thanks, I actually learned how to play this properly. Nice explinations.

  • nice hair man

  • actually if u just cut all the crap that he says at the beginging and the crap that he says in the middle and at the end ... u'd get a nice 10 min pure music lerning environment ... but noooo .. he has to make stupid jokes in between !

  • @silent2009 yo dude stfu hes trying to entertain the crowd if you dont like his work just because you dont know how to play piano dont go on making everybody agrivated by your idiotic words go get a life kind a job and learn to play instruments and by the way you have the name silent2009 why dont you live up to you name keep silient. i leave you with one thing learn manners stop being such a nusience play an instrument get a wife find a job and live up to the name silent cause you really need to

  • @creation700 hahaha wow wow man !

    why the attitude ?

    is lypur giving u some :P ?

  • @silent2009 your the only one that has the attitude terd

  • @silent2009 He is a teacher. Teaching is not only about giving straight forward information. Many of us have follow through all his lessons. Obviously you are not one of them for you would be more understanding and respectful. Also consider that he is trying to teach a wide variety of students at once. So it is fine if you are such a quick learner but others are not, and others enjoy the fact that he tries to make his class more fun and relaxed with his jokes and spontaneousness.

  • @silversnow2008 ahhh .... no way ... man the respectful and well balanced sentences made me feel like .. ahhh ... god ...

    ok i do understand it now .. really sorry .... but thought that i've wasted like time while watching it ... but seems it was oriented this way .. sorry ! seriously man ... u got me i fell like trash now !

  • I just started playing the piano and I want to say I've learned soooo much from your tutorials.Thank you.Keep up the good work.:)

  • Ur funny lol...but I like ur explanations

  • oh my gosh you are so boring

  • @morganlight09 morgan dont make me get started with you did you see i just tought silent2009 a lesson dont make me have to teach you a lesson to learn some manners

  • very good tutorial but you need a cameraman.

  • LOVE the way you bypassed all the difficult stuff! LOL just about a page and a half to two pages of the 3 page piece. Beethoven would not liky very much. Maybe we could call one of them there mediums to see what he has to say. LOL I bet it would not be nice. Why learn a whole song when you can just learn the main riff. I know you are giving it away but shit dude do the whole thing.

  • @evilstalkerhorne if you know of a video posted with the middle part shown.. please let me know, this is like the 10th video without the middle

  • @IAmBralin A user named "Thomandy" has made very good tutorials (it's how I learned to play the whole thing) He has them separated out into the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd hard parts.

  • @IAmBralin I can't link the vids, just search for these

    Tutorial - How to play Fur Elise - The first HARD part

    Tutorial - How to play Fur Elise - The second HARD part

    Tutorial - How to play Fur Elise - The third HARD part

  • Andrew said he made mistakes, but it sounded beautiful to me. It must be my untrained ear. Thank you for the video.

  • sock rocks xD thank you!!

  • thank you :D ,,

  • hey,what about my comment about the d sharp-e repetions?did you delete,or what?

  • i have made an easy tutorial for fur elise please give it a try

  • this guy is freaking weird

  • But theres is still missing a part of the song?

  • You are the best!! Thank you so much..

  • I like this piece.

  • Hey, Im a guitar player but I would like to learn piano too.. my father has a piano and I was wondering if this is a good piece to start with.. it does not look that hard to be honest ;)

  • @GitarenEnBananen it gets a lot harder than this though ;P

  • Thank you, It is a greatly appreciated effort. Good luc!!!!!

  • Whats the of the switching the hands thing around 24:10 i dont get it isnt it faster to just play that part only with 1 hand

  • heheh no offence but whenevr ic you you look ,like an mad science professer with ur hair! DONT WORRY I LOVE IT <3

  • wow, excellent, thanks for these lessons.....keep them coming :)

  • I hate people who know only this song and think they're the f*cking big cheese. Not referring to you of course

  • @Mugsi , so what's your point? Hating ? Learn anger management.....

  • @Mugsi I f*cking hate people who think piano is SOOO easy, and after three weeks of playing you'd be daft if you can't play such a SIMPLE piece as this..

    GROW UP!

  • Thank you very much for all the time and efforts you put on this video. It makes easy learing ! Cheers.

  • tu parle trop

  • @apebyen @BeatriceAwesome I do not know either of you, I realise that, but you both have lives, so chill out a little bit, please? Honestly, do you even know why you're arguing? Let's all be happy and either like/dislike the tutorial instead of wasting time getting angry at each other :) x

  • Wow, superb. You don't have to impress us, we're already impressed since we don't play piano yet. I love this song and think some day I could learn the simple version you started with. Thanks for helping us learn. Best always, Lena

  • Hats off to you!!!

  • I don't play the paiano, like at all...and I'm gettin that down. Awesome! Thanks!

  • im 15 and i got this song down! thank you

  • Speak up

  • WoO!! WoO!! :]

  • He talks too much - rubbish too. Just the tutorials if you're gonna do them....you haven;t got a an engaging ('stage presence') personality - but he obviously can play - so just do the tuts, man!

  • this guy has to be the biggest cocksucker on the planet. only 13 year olds have their hair styled in such a manner

  • Hey Andrew. I just wanna say I feel sorry for you making this video. Over 30 minutes?! Such a waste of time! Well, you may have problems, I dont know. But I am sure on one thing... Get a life man ; )

  • @apebyen woah whats with the haters on this video? Yeah its thirty minutes, thats down to how long the actual composition is.(or whatever its called) Put it this way, this is not a quick fix song and cannot be learnt fully in 5minutes. So stop trolling

  • @scooterok1 Dont come here and dominate! You know its true what I said. Just look at the freak.

    I believe you've been treated bad from people around you. I can see that on how you write. Go to bed stupid girl.

  • @apebyen are you a 5 year old little boy your certainly acting like one :L

  • @BeatriceAwesome and who are you? Have I spoke to you? wait a sec, what are you.. You are a sad strange little man, and I feel sorry for you. goodbye

  • @apebyen if ya havent noticed im a girl :L bahhaa shouldent feel sorry for me ive got a wonderful life :) but wierd how you replyed to my comment straight away makes me wonder if you dont have a life :)
