How to Play La Valse d'Amelie on Piano by Yann Tiersen pt 1

[candorpluslove]

i don't think this song is for beginners..

[norcal1229]

thank you so much! this was immensely helpful while trying to correct all the mistakes on the sheet music i downloaded off the internet :) And you go at a perfect pace.

[juanelox1212]

crap my keyboard isnt that long to use octaves lol

[laforzachescorre]

i like this tutorial you explain very well

[anesthetized8]

is it in C-majo or a-minor i never how to tell... Sounds a bit sad so i think it is a-minor. Can you help me?

[shantal2501]

Thank you so much for taking the time to do this. I really find it so helpful!!

[sfersjsr]

i love you

like, seriously, thank you SO much for doing this:')

[Video6498]

Thanks so much for this tutorial! Would be better with better camera quality, but it is a good tutorial nonetheless and you did a great job!

[welshietvfan47]

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! :)

I'm in love with this song and have made it my summer goal to learn it on piano...and since I learn faster with visual aid you have really helped me here. Great job btw...I always have so much respect and admiration for people who go out of their way to make music tutorials & stuff for people who can't find the sheet music or need a little help! Oh and thanks for making what notes and fingerings you use REALLY clear, it helped a lot! Cheers. :)

[tamz0123]

thank you soo soo much. you helped me alot XD

[hobmerry]

thanks for doing this video!! i'm a visual learner so it was easy to watch your fingers on the keys

[tapatian]

your video sucks i didnt learn anything in 3 weeks

[cybermanMan]

@tapatian Maybe you can't learn anything in 1 year cause of your lack of intelligence.

[tapatian]

@cybermanMan or maybe couse i dont have a 3 fingers but i can play mothers journey la dispute turk march and petit chien

[AbiLovesYouLots]

@tapatian what a horrible person you are! If you don't like it fair enough, but this guy/girl took the time to help people try and learn this song, and from what I've read it's helped a lot of people; it's definatley helped me. If you were really that great then you wouldn't need this tutorial and should be the one making the tutorial, I see no way that this could have been improved, the technique used to teach people is great. So stop being so negative and horrible

[DankstarTheofiel]

respect, thanx man, great interpretation, absolutely excelent, beautyful, you feel it

DST

[TheNonBelieveRr]

really helpful, thank you! :) I stood up all night, but i got it... finally... ;dd

[noita287]

Thank you very much for this video. It´s  really helpful.

[xxxKimmxxx]

Thanks for the tutorial. Not just this one, but all of them. You're teaching me so much! :) And to me, it is very clear which notes you're hitting. Maybe people should try to get a slight understanding of the piano first before trying to play this.. If you can't see which notes those are, you probably won't be able to play it either.

Anyway, thank you very much!

[YokoStardoll]

i have the same notebook !!

[sakatuke]

thanx 4 the tutorial it did help me alot!!!

[Flyingdream31188]

Thank you for spending your time to help us to learn this song :) !!

[aansa19]

Can you let us know wat keys ur hitting, it wud make it easier to play it.

Thanks.

[andysax36]

thanxz!

[sheliqua]

this is really blury, its hard to see what keys you're hitting :(. i think you can fix that by just zooming in with your camera when you tape it...just for future notice

[97lbp]

Merci pour ton commentaire au propos de ma vidéo pianotique sur ROXANNE.

Oui, il est vrai que je prends des cours de piano mais ce morceau (comme tout ceux que je met en ligne) a été trouvé exclusivement par mon oreille.

J'ai récemment modifié ma façon de jouer ROXANNE et je difuserais cette vidéo d'ici X temps (en fait, c'est surtout du à la flemme de filmer une vidéo puis de l'envoyer sur YouTube ; ] )

[Fringants3615]

Good tutorial but the left hand's part is not clear

[SophiedeTube]

thank you veryveryveryveryveryMUCH!!

[CrueLove]

VERY great tutorial! helped me loads!

[annekennm]

it's darrkk..

i can't see it really good

[deluuks1]

You are not playing it by the original sheets.. nice tutorial tho

[cisco1225]

@deluuks1 Well I learned this from sheets that were from an Amelie book. Maybe it was a slightly altered transcription or something but when I play it along with the actual song it sounds exact to me

[deluuks1]

@cisco1225 I'll send the sheets to your inbox

[Siberian9k]

your tutorial is really great!!!! 5*

[angelus0000]

thank you man really!!!

[plasmoidi]

Thanks so much for the tutorial!

I appreciate it

[PianoCrAck9]

very good thanks!!!

[disposition073]

eerst het stuk leren voor je het op youtube zet...

[cisco1225]

english?

[hammerK983]

great tutorial!!!!!! thank you very much......im learning it now and i can still play the whole slow part at the beginning of the song.......its hard but i work everytime with my fingers to finish the skills......5* very nice!!

[annekennm]

he says she has to learn the song her own, first.

[amberisabella]

@cisco1225 I think they're saying 'first learn the piece before you put it on youtube', but I'm not sure. My Dutch isn't very good. Anyway, I think this is a really useful tutorial. :)

[Fevah7]

@cisco1225 lol



[WKUK2059]

@cisco1225 lmao i would have put that in a translator

[3only3]

@disposition073 klagen kan iedereen

[myrduck]

@disposition073 deed hij het zo slecht dan?

[jayscott32]

thanks man great tutorial despite the not so great camera quality... anyone who complains about that trivial detail is obviously not dedicated enough to learning

[joseenver]

excelente, gracias!!!

[Gumpa2]

i downloaded these sheets from a other side before and there was everything different

[rabbeat68]

was it worse?

[cisco1225]

the sheet i used were official ones. So my tutorial is acurate

[14missundaztood]

Thank you so much for this great help and the link for the sheets!! You made me not to give up with this beautiful song :) THANKS! :D

[ValeJonass1320]

Muchas Gracias

por fin voy a tocar esta canción en piano

:D

[cisco1225]

I realize the quality of the video isn't great. My cam at the time was crap. Sorry for the inconvenience but its the best i could do with what I had at the time. If its too much of a problem, by all means I could just easily take the tutorial down.

[rabbeat68]

you did great! I really hate when somebody is talking. best way is to show! once again - good job. thank you very much!

[yannickpk]

die qualität ist scheiße!

[buddydog1956]

Ok, Great...I was hoping somebody would post this piece on YT. Thanks a bunch..

I was always under the impression that the 'right' hand was carrying 'two' melodies at the same time...now I see how it's done! thanks a bunch man..You're alright!

[PolarePer]

great initiative, and I apreciate this thanks, although it would have been better if you turned on the lights because of the video quality. It turns all grainy and blurry if its dark. Use white light. Also try to put the camera straight from the top. Thanks :) greets from

[MomeRaths10]

mooore lightsss :(

[estebango666]

grande wn oo xDD (Y)

[wolfmusic92]

i love this song... i stumbled upon it after watching your samson video. great tutorial!

[eldadmi]

Thank u very much for this great video..

i learned many things from it and i hope this will bring me (in one year or 2 3.. :) ) to being able to play this magnificent piece of art

[cisco1225]

Like I always say, If I can play this, ANYONE CAN. lol. good luck and post a video response when you finish :)

[weefeatures]

thank you for taking the time to break this down. So many people's 'tutorial' videos are just them showing off, this was ver helpful!! :D

[LarissaLIBERTY]

how long did it take you to learn this?

[cisco1225]

Well...I came across this about half a year into playing piano. I loved it(naturally) but when seeing people play it on youtube I was like, HELL NAW! I thought I would never be able to learn this. I tried, and failed. lol. After I got a little better, I went back and tried again. Once I was able to dissect certain parts of the song it was actually pretty easy. I learned this in about a months time and I had been playing for around 9-10 months. If I can do it, ANYONE CAN! lol

[LarissaLIBERTY]

=)nice

[Exorgistis]

thanks for help!it really works!!

[PaulineNederland]

thank you soo much!

[cisco1225]

you're welcome :-)

[bbooggaazziiccii]

heey you're fucking good!!

thanks for sharing

[viosckr]

thanks very much!!!!

[virgoj0]

hey people! if you really want the sheets for this type it in google andi get it for free pretty easy

[gusbakker]

thanks for the tutorial, it helped me to learn some notes that I couldn't see at other videos of this piece.

[7HeartWideOpen7]

nah man, this is a great tutorial, ive been wanting to learn this song for a long time and this has helped a shit ton, its great, thanks alot!

[pyronikz123]

it easy well i cant really say easy i been playing for around 7 to 8 years so stuff like this is good after all the years i cant really read notes of the page and play them but things like this are good CONGRATZ to people that have learnt if u have any questions on how to get sheet music send message back the sheet is in letter form not i notes

[Tremium]

i'd like to have that sheet please!

[PIECE2YOURMOTHA]

damn, i wish you would tell us the notes!

[cisco1225]

I have a question. Did anyone watch the beginning of this and immediately think that I was one of those people who just play the song slowly and call it a tutorial and it kinda pissed you off?? lol. Obviously thats not the case but watching this, I kind get that impression initially. haha

[MaraPapillon]

yes that's what I thought at the begining. It would be even better if you named (you could write it on the video) the different notes you're I think it would help a lot :-)

[SaeriaSuresh]

*raises hand* I did. But then I kept watching :)

[tallsmi8]

you help me alot .. my girlfriiend want that i play this song for you and i cant read notes.. thank you very much great job

[tallsmi8]

for her  i mean :D

[cisco1225]

lol. So you can't play it for me?? haha. Just kiddin. Good luck with the song. I hope this tutorial is clear enough to help you learn the song.

[tallsmi8]

yes it is.. a little bit tricki but i give my best ;) thanks

[GodoFFayt]

its was the best :x thanks ;D

[PlanctonTM]

[ShutYourStinkingTrap]

[ShutYourStinkingTrap]

[berenice932]

[cisco1225]

Just wanted to say thanks again for all the nice comments and feedback. Sorry if I don't respond to every comment but I do read every one of them. I'm glad I could help in any way possible with this amazing song. Good luck and have fun learning it :-)

[minamimo]

Thanks a lot, been looking for this type of tutorial. :) Got stuck at the beginning of the middle section.

[planetdancerkh]

thats exactly where im stuck right now

whichhh is why im here watching this video lol. i love how fellow piano players can help eachother out like this <3

[hellotwat]

hey you missed out the hard bit at the end :(

[cisco1225]

I'm not sure what you mean. Theres more than one part to this tutorial

[keyboard1018]

this song is soo hard! i cant play the fast part!

[juliette0891]

Thank you!!!!

Nice tutorial xD

[Mistrias]

part two HARD MAN !!!

when the right hand combine with left OMG haleluyah i dont know how to do anymore lol

[MlovesTH]

I dont understand the second part

about the right hand playing with an

octave or something? Im sorry, but i haven't had any piano lessons, so i

dont understand those languages..

Btw excellent tutorial! One of the

bests i''ve ever seen because of the

slower parts & clear finger settings

[drieske333]

Hacks, just looked at another vid, playing this song as well, and he does it too!!!! What sheets did you use?

[cisco1225]

I used official sheets. They were in a pack of Tiersen songs from Amelie. Pretty much every song from Amelie. I've learned them all but I haven't posted a video for sur le fil yet. I haven't got around to record it yet.

[drieske333]

Well, i have a question!

Why do you play three notes after the d, at 4:30

they way i play it, it's an A and the central C, how comes you play 3, same goes for the ones after that?

[jimenalawls]

finally!!

[mamlas16]

do you have a keyboard or piano? i ask you because i have bought a keyboard and there is no dynamic keys ; [

if you have a keyboard could you tell me what kinde it is and is it has a dynamic keys?

[wateva92]

what are dynamic keys?

[kyiao]

Thank you =)

[mznxbcv01]

This is an absolutely excellent tutorial. I have managed to learn this whole section from your wonderful interpretation. Thank you!

[cristinukka86]

CISCO,parli italiano?? y español??

[delgadomalo]

mi parle italiano ragazzo

pero soy mexicano :D

[cisco1225]

Sorry, only english. Well, I speak a little spanish and a little french. lol. But not nearly well enough to do tutorials in either language.

[shifta187]

you played it nice but the quality is really shitty!

[lynnvanilla]

sorry, i accidentaly press the ratings. while i was learning. Sorry. opps.

[conse3000]

thanks for this vid!

[pwpro]

Great video with trash web cam :)

[Roxas240]

really good tutorial thank you very much

[EcoBeats]

Thanks for the post, great song...

Shitty cam though, or maybe just out of focus!!

:)

[DearYourHoliness]

omg!!! i have been trying to learn this song forever!!

and then i happen to cross your video and it helped me figure it out so much better than just watching people play it

thankyou so muchhh!!!

[mychemfreak246]

too shy to speak huh? ah, well. i guess i'll just have to figure it out on my own....:(

[cisco1225]

lol. Yea I was a bit shy to speak on the tutorial. But this part isn't too difficult. I did realize that the harder parts were too difficult for me to not speak on the tutorial, so I decided to talk you all through it. I speak during the later and harder parts of the tutorial. Good luck with the song :-)

[YumiihChan33]

but next time you should turn the lights on :P

[YumiihChan33]

Very useful, thank you so much!!

[OAKENAMBER]

Thank you so much for sharing this. I'm a beginner, and this is a PERFECT speed!

[laisy2]

[osiedle]
