Cloud Smiles Piano Tutorial Part 1

What key is this in, if you don't mind me asking?

@thataznguitarist

The Key of the actual song is G Major... I believe.

But for all intents and purposes (for tutorials) I treat keys as always being "C Major"... i.e. every accidental is a sharp or flat relative to C Major.

wow great tutorial keep it up :D

[thebetloganz]

Great Tutorial!! But it's really hard to keep up... You should've done Left hand 1st. Then Right hand.

[AlesandrosX]

Normally that would be OK. But for any moderately complicated song, the LH/RH alternating takes too long and doesn't work too well. (can't see how the two hands work together. . . since LH/RH play a lot of each other's notes.)

You can either watch my hands while I play it slowly and/or look at the annotations that spell out all the notes. . . .

I was hoping that the annotations would prove the most valuable asset in this tutorial.

You'll see later on in the tutorial!

[slazerdragoon]

you are right it's better to hear and watch at the same time instead of lh and rh one by one. it confuses the actual play

[otherjulian]

@AlesandrosX yes your right... your should keep the tutorials this way. it seems the easiest way to learn. thank you

[ThePowerOfKronos]

thanks master ;)

[AlesandrosX]

Yes, the last triplet notes (for the melody) should NOT be played (at the same time) with a LH note.

My rhythm was off. . .
