Good... keep up the good work ... :)

[ashleigh18v]

I think you did great and considering you started learning in your 20's makes it even better! Well done!

[aldora87]

@ashleigh18v THANKS!!!

[tranganh2410]

Really? You learned the piano in your twenties, wow, I'm so happy to hear that. I'm 21 and I've just taken piano lessons for 8 months, haha, better late than never :) Keep up your good work

[Pakorro68]

Beautiful Performance !!!

[Enkil0423]

Nice touch, you play wonderfully. Those mistakes are always fixed with enough practice as you may already know XD.

[whoders]

I like this song a lot, but I love it even more when it's played slower because it gives the impression of a more romantic song with feeling. Kinda like a Sam Cooke feel...

[1DarkAlex]

I can do better:-> But she did a great job because this song is hard.

[FreeeeS]

@1DarkAlex composition*

[aangodiawala]

[MATHSMASTA]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOB!!!!!!

[czione21]

@MATHSMASTA : talk to yourself dude. she did a great job playing the piano. it's a hard piece, dude. :D

[aldora87]

@czione21 thanks for ur support!

[czione21]

@aldora87 no problem... you did a great job! :D

[HoodedPianist1]

@czione21 Hard piece? You just made my day. Also, she didn't play the entire piece. I do think this is a great beginners approach, though.

[daintysm]

@HoodedPianist1 : czione21 is so glad making your day! fine, then you are the expert...

[aldora87]

@MATHSMASTA not everybody is born talented as u. esp when i do not learn the piano when i was a kid. i only picked it up when i was in my twenties.

[magixkar]

I'm trying to learn this piece too. I really do love this song and you should feel PROUD that you can play it.

[NewtonBlog]

i bet you r asian, just for that i gie you thumbs down

[pianogirl416]

Nice! I thought you did great! I wanna learn this :) I'm thinking of picking it as my next solo piece to have my teacher help me with :)

[vickierlan]

Very nice! I am a beginner also & play this. Don't you just love it? I haven't yet tried the difficult part. Keep up the good work. You are an inspirations! Vicki

[MPDB89]

well played... keep at it .... its nice to see somebody that isn't overboard good on youtube, piano is played to be enjoyed and not to make your fingers bleed...

[aldora87]

Nervousification, dont give up! Tell ya wat-- i've been practicing my piano lesser nowadays as i have to work OTs almost everyday. I only got a PASS for my grade 5 practical n am advised by my teacher to switch from ABRSM to Trinity for grade 6. But nonetheless, i dont wanna give up on piano becoz its my childhood ambition to learn how to play it ;)

[Nervousification]

Its people like you that make me wanna give up on the piano :P

[cubzi]

im not one to judge.. butt.. your amazing(: keep up the good workk.

[spadadee]

nice work!

[FourtySven]

keep practicing

and never say its bad endorse your talent!

[iammeandjustme]

Nice! Very good speed. Just a little practice and it could be perfect. I think you can be a pro if you want and if you work a lot.

[bosseed]

pretty girl,i love your skillz!!

[R1c3cr4ck3r]

:o this song version sounds like it could work perfectly in a story about tragedy. Nice personal touches :D nicely played.

[crymakerlovejeon]

that was really cool!

the music was great,

and the pianist is so beautiful!

I watched this video many times beacuse its sounds so cool

[scorcher219396]

i luv this piece! and you played it pretty well! i am playing this with my friend as a duet on the cello.

[bombadil707]

Is not bad! i like it, obviously is not perfect but is a great performance if you learning to play the piano, 'cause is difficult piece, Congratulations!

Greetings from Chile and excuse my bad english xD

[aldora87]

Thanks dude ;) yea its nt perfect but i did try my best.. I juz wanna prove tt nt only the professionals can play the piano.. Ppl like u n i can play it for leisure too :)

[bowieluver1]

The song is played faster though but good job anyway I can only play with one hand

[iammeandjustme]

@bowieluver1 It's not faster. It's perfect, just a bit slower in some parts. I've been knowing this song since I was 9, and I listened to it countless times, and trust me, it is the right speed.

[engertdan]

I think it is cool that you taped it and posted it on youtube... you are brave.. I am fihting at home trying to learn how to play.. and I am not on that level yet that I would dare to post my playing on youtube... the hat down for you :) go on!

[aldora87]

thanks..

well, my playing still have lotsa room for improvements (i won't dare to say my playing is nice but at least i tried)..

btw i love playing with the camera, hence the video.. LOL

[bluestreak711]

well i can't sight read piano so to me that was pretty good, be best i can do on a piece of music that is somewhat simple with both treble and bass clef that was at the max of double notes for each hand, it is a hymnal, and i can only play it at

0.10% speed out of 100%

[aldora87]

all the best to you!

i'm trying to play my church hymns too!! pressing 4 notes at a time is kinda tedious to me.. i'll always try to simply the hymns by using my own improvised cranky chords whenever i can.. otherwise, i'll stick to the original score which is hard to play :(

[bluestreak711]

@aldora87 I can play by ear well and songs i know i can add some things in it and make it sound pretty good for only having 4 years piano but it is just the sight reading that I stink at lol

I want to be able to do both really well and also be able to sight play a piece of music and improvise while doing so. that is really hard

[narojan24]

hey ppl stay cool...the most important thing is she loves to play the piano!!!

keep it... you will learn to much if YOU want!

;) sweet playing

[aldora87]

thanks =)

[Strawb3rrymilkshak3]

hey cool u got tha same piano book as me the songs are awesome that they have in that book

[EinsteinMad]

Im thinking that you should play with more energy

to improve the tone :)

[Kapomafioso]

I don't know, which is worse - your terrible English slang, or playing...

[aldora87]

Excuse me, did i ever open my mouth to utter a single word?! Do i ever try to speak with wateva slang ur saying??

Don't u ever look down on Asians because we CAN read and write English!!!

N did i ever say my playing is good?! Just keep your comments to yourself u nasty freak!

[Kapomafioso]

I have nothing against Asians, but I don't like slang, because it's dificult to recognize what did you want to say, Asians and writing/reading English has nothing to do with slang! So I apologize I did not intend to be nasty (freak xD)

I'm not freak, but you said "n dat's wat my teacher yaught" it could mean that your teacher taught you to follow the score and do what you want - add a note, or change the tempo as you want, I really don't know, this is why I dislike slang, once again, sorry!

[aldora87]

Ermz, tt's not slang (slang=some weird accent).. Its just my personal writing style.. I'm too lazy to spell out the entire word on the keyboard..

Ok, i know my tempo's gone (my rhythm sucks by the way) and i recorded this video before my grade 4 exams i think... So cant expect much from me u see..

[musikfoalife]

=.=' Even your English is bad, don't go round putting others down. Your English is bad enough as it is, so please, don't hate on others.

[Gillies424]

just to let you know those are not slang. they r just the shorted form. And i noe wat slangs r like and don't be rude.

[MrMusicomane]

hey darling, you are playing it wrong, just check the score more carefully....

[aldora87]

helllo, i juz followed the score i haf... n dat's wat my teacher taught... but my rhythm ain't stable, dat i knw... ya, thanks for the highlight yeap..

[winstonsoft2]

siktir yarrak wrong amına koım WRONG

[Alissuh17]

beautiful!

[aldora87]

thanks :)

[ChocolateeDisco]

Great job! I found my notes somewhere just and started repalying this one. Great song anyways.

[puteh2006]

you only started playing last year and you play this so well! how often do you practise? 1 hour a day? or 4 hours?

[elisdagbok]

I aint got any vidioes but, i started playing this year and just started on moonlight sonata mvt 3 (knew notes from before :P). But still, I've noticed it is easier to play on a real piano instead of an electric

[bananachip33]

I tend to find that too! It is pretty weird since I can only play on the Piano at school but I can cope with it on the electric. I think it may have something to do with the way that the keys click a liottle whenever you press them down too hard.

Hope you do well on the moonlight sonata! =D

[panos3581]

WHAT????

that's the song i try to play but it's so hard...

are you sure that you started mvt 3 and not mvt1?

[elisdagbok]

yeah, i practise round 2 hours aday

[pathfinder0009]

Nice Dude! good playing! hungarian dance no. 5 is one my all time favorites,my mp3 player has alot of classical music like this.you're so lucky that you have a piano,=) ....Lol I really wanted to play piano,but i can't afford to buy one haha, so i just stuck up playing my wooden flute trying to play this piece,but again i always sound bad Lol (im not good lol)..anyway i give you 5 stars =)

[aldora87]

thanks alot.. Dun give up!! Actually like u, i wanted to learn the piano since i was in kindergarten but we couldn't afford it as well.. Tt's y i only started learning last yr.. Before tt, i went online to learn how to read musical notrs n i bugged my friends to teach me a little.. Dun worry, where dere's a will, there'll b a way :)

[pathfinder0009]

thnx alot too,ill never lose my will and hope =).

,like u also, where doing the same thing, i also try to read musical notes when i have the time.anyway tnx again.=)

[XiAoHawHaW]

something wrong X.x

[aldora87]

Lol i nv said it was right?? I'm prone to mistakes =)

[SilentAssasin25]

Wow...I was blown away by this..and I usually am not very fond of classical music. You should try out for a concerto, I'm sure you'd steal the show! :)

[favrevinesh]

Very very nice.... I really love (i play it) that piece and I'haven't found  someone who plays it as well as you (a part of my teacher...)

[aldora87]

lol thanks...

my playing is better becoz i juz realized dat not many ppl posted videos of them playing this piece.. i'm like one of the few who did a video on it... i think there's bound to be better players out dere..

[ComposerMonja]

thank you for playing this piece by johannes brahms. i am lucky for having a piano that he actually played for a summer stay at his friends house. keep it up! 5*'s

[aldora87]

thanks alot!! btw i feel that your piano is gorgeous!!!

and your composing is nice too.. i'm impressed dat u can compose such a long piece and play it without dozing off!! I kinda dozed off with the blue danube oredi =)
