  • This is one of my favorite pieces to play too--I played it as a kid, and then again as an adult taking lessons. Good for you! I too get nervous playing, but am starting to put myself up on U tube just to simulate the nerves of performing. Best wishes and stay with it!

  • i can play this song. im almost 15 and been playing for 9 years. this song is my fav and was one of my hardest to learn.

  • Quite good play for self-learning. Main intro melody tempo is good, but people say it's rush, because the easy parts are played fast and the difficult parts are slower or the keys are played inaccurately to try to keep up the tempo.

  • im 13 and im learning this exact song at the moment.

  • im also 13 and learning this song =D (14 next month)

  • @iliketurtlezzz cool im turning 14 tomorrow

  • @iliketurtlezzz same :D but in november

  • I'm not an adult learner, but i think your version is abit rushed. Can be slowed down abit, and play it with more sensitivity. But very good, this piece is tricky

  • very well done!! you might want to work on the dynamics more. (if u were going to compete it) i im learning this song as well and its frustrating me alott! :( but i also started learning piano in october and its now feburary i can play fur elise but any suggestions? to help me not be frustratedd?

  • Beautiful job; just always remember Mozart said tempo is most important.

  • good job :) nice speed !!

    p.s. you have a reallllyyy nice piano!!

  • Hey I'd get nervous and speed up too if the camera man was shooting from dumb angles, especially ones from under?? =l

  • Good job!

  • pro haha

  • You play very well. I have tips and suggestions fro Adult Piano learners on my channel. I update Piano tutorials regularly. You may want to subscribe to keep updated with new tips an suggestions for Adult Piano learning.

  • well it's a bit fast but it's good. i thought the tempo was 132

  • i think its too fast for this piece; its ruinining it and not consistent,

  • I agree

  • Great play! I am a very newbie adult learner and I wonder if there will be one day I can be as good as you do (your fingers are really very very agile).

    However, I do agree that it's better if the tempo is slower and there is more expression. Also, It seems you have skipped some of the "Empty" beats and it looks like the main reason why the performance sound so rush.

  • this is not an easy song

    great job

  • Fine job for beginner, I suppose. I agree with previous opinions, you need more expression, i.e. some notes louder than others =) The other way your play would remind a bit about old mobile phones, which played music with equal loudness. This way music seems to be stiff and programmed.

    Good luck to you!

  • Nice, I'm learning this piece also. I think if it was played a little slower, it would be more pleasing to the ear. I think you could also play with a bit more expression i.e. more contrast between p and f sections.

  • A great job for a beginner. I think you're going to progress very quickly. The tempo is fine, although occasionally you sound a little rushed, but not to a disastrous degree.

    I agree about dynamics. It's one of the hallmarks of Mozart's style to contrast p and f sections, especially when the same phrase is repeated. Just follow the markings in your edition. And breathe a little at the end of a phrase.

    But overall an excellent performance.

  • I'm a pianist and I think you have done an excellent job. You are at the very top of the adult learners that I know.  This is very beautiful.

    If you enjoy hearing other people play pieces that you play, do a search for "Yuja" and "Mozart" and you will hear Yuja Wang play this same sonata. I hope you like it.
