Adagio for Strings - Tutorial 3 - Overhead (Annotated)

[maxamellon]

I ove this piece. Amazing how one key board can sound like a whole orchestra.

[WildCatGal19]

I don't get what the notes displayed onscreen are trying to tell us? :S

[JreynoldsC1010]

Tad fake... hes playing the music and hitting the keys, i did the same as him with the same keyboard, totally different.

[clarkie2461]

superb,very nice keep it real

[Oppdal77]

For a one-man orchestra I thought that was really well played. Great job man

[denbal87]

Nice video and funny comments. I wonder how long it's gonna take me to learn this...

[Whamesl0l]

immense cover, but the quality kinda lets it down, oh well, it was still beautifully played

[castor3535]

we cant see your fucking finger s man... Dont understand how to play ! damn ... lol

[diamond3187]

@castor3535 You can't see his fingers? Ok so those funny looking squiggles on the screen are called 'letters', and they signify the notes that you should play. You can learn more about these at your local school... Hope this helps (sorry, i couldn't resist, i did try to though if that makes any difference).

[Iam18yearsolddddd]

nice cover mate

[TheWannaBe2007]

@Iam18yearsolddddd Thanks. :)

[diamond3187]

@Iam18yearsolddddd You won't be 18 years old forever... well, unless you die now...

[Iam18yearsolddddd]

@diamond3187 damn you're really smart. I admire you

[VBPianoMusic]

High Definition Quality 1080p!

[TheWannaBe2007]

@VBPianoMusic I wish I had a camera that could do 1080p vids. :(

[VBPianoMusic]

@TheWannaBe2007

Haha i have one..

But that doesnt matter..

good vid and nice playing btw! =)

[Beolex]

This is beautiful.

To all haters: get the fucking piano notes online if you can't follow a damn tutorial.

[TheWannaBe2007]

@Beolex Thanks. :)

I learned the hard way that there really isn't a good way to do a tutorial on a piece this involved. I thought about doing a bit by bit series, but that would take waaay too long to put together. This is far from perfect, but it will at least get people in the ballpark.

[Beolex]

I want to get a MIDI Keyboard for my PC so I can play stuff like this. :)

[chsherbakov]

worst tutorial ive seen

[fuckinscrubs1]

I prefer the notes cuase if ur learnin piano u shud kno what notes ur playin, not just copy some1s fingers like a fuckin monkey would

[Martulaaaa]

i lovit:)

[DiobloHunter]

Beautiful. One of the best covers on youtube,

[pugzrbest]

can you please send me the music you used to play this, I'd really appreciate it.

Thanks if you can :-)

[mordredP777]

[stinkepoep]

[equesfuscus]

Well done!

[everlastingsolider]

[xXjoeXmamaXx]

you did really good! i subscribed and rated 5*:-)

[ohnapolean]

0:28, 2 F sharps.

[markgavin19]

wow, im really used to be beats of Tiesto kicking in at the end. But everyone kind of pays homage to this tune by standing still facing the DJ with both hands in the air, no jumping, when this parts on.

One of my favourite tunes!

PS. Great Playing also :)

[fallingbird]

Thank you so much for posting this,

[uncomentario]

Increíble!!!!

[Popsickle950]

can you Show us the keys your pressing and not write them down please ? That would be much better , thank you, it is good tho well played

[TheWannaBe2007]

You might see the keys I am pressing better with Tutorial 4. Someone else also posted a vid that shows the entire keyboard, and which notes are pressed when. Thanks for the compliments.

[technoshitor]

cant see the keys with the text u put, perhaps next time u can put them in a different position on the screen

[00rawrx]

i typed only hope notes for keyboard and this is the first one that popped up.!

so i thought that this wa it and i was trying to sing with it and then i realized that it isnt it...

IM SLOW.!

[gabagandalf07]

Send me the PDF :) :) :)

I love this song so much

[IxCALV3RTxI]

This song is so amazing I swear I could cry.

[bonitaclao]

its hard to understand

[bongstatus01]

what song is that your playing, ive heard that before somewhere

[TheWannaBe2007]

Barber's Adagio for Strings has been performed at the funeral services for 2 U.S. Presidents, and for other similar occasions. It was a central theme in the movie Platoon, and recently has been remade into a techno song by DJ Tiesto.

[BioHazrd07]

Trance* not techno

[djkhrystyan]

@TheWannaBe2007 , that's trance , not techno

[Dovemagician]

@ ..18 seconds it shows an a but you're not playing it....why??

[TheWannaBe2007]

It's called a screw-up. The A in the notes shouldn't be there.

[frontino050]

sadlaskjjo fucking awesome dud thats sick

[samococo]

Too fast

[NessRocksZ]

Thanx :):)

[Nabqzumo]

Hello again! I wondered if you can play "Africa" by toto, and if you can, would you send me some PDFs for it? And by the way, now I have learned almost 2 pages form "Adagio for Strings" PDFs you sent me! Thanks :D

[Nabqzumo]

Thank you soooo much for the PDF. I will love playing it! Once again: Thank you and you are great!

[TheWannaBe2007]

Thank you for the compliments. Glad I could help.

[TWlegend07]

[liltari]

Wow. A great musician, making a haunting, ten minute masterpiece accessible to those of us just learning. You are awesome. Thank you, and you played beautifully.

[FProductions]

ok i learn the first 2 chord changes... and gave up... good work man, sound just like the real thing

[Loooiiisss123]

Thats really good but I don't understand the notes in yellow :/ ?

[TheWannaBe2007]

It looks like my annotations are only a modest help. My line of thought was that folks could watch me play, and if they weren't quite sure which notes I hit on a particular chord, the annotations in yellow could guide them. Some say it helps a lot, others say it's confusing. I'm finding it to be quite challenging to come up with tutorials for a piece this long, and still be understandable to those who don't read music. But, I'm trying.

[KieoFeenix]

ano wat ya tryin 2 say there, i cnt read music but i got most of it, not all of it but most lol

[music01234567]

I know it's old post but I totally agree!

It is impossible to satisfy everyone's level of learning ability. It would have to be a one on one personal lesson to perfectly teach someone something. There is only so much you can do but you are doing all that can be done. Very cool!

[mellamanchulo]

niceeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

[TheWannaBe2007]

Thanks!

[zabros2020]

can you please send it to me as wwell? much apreciated. q u a n a i d a AT h o t m a i l. c o m

[TheWannaBe2007]

If you give me an email address, I'll send it to you.

[nitronic12]

I want the pdf mate =D

[TheWannaBe2007]

If you give me an email address, I'll send it to you.

[armani1326]

Wow, this is very easy!!!=] Thanks bro:D I have trouble sometimes just watching fingers on the keyboard but since you put the notes right there I'm learning this pretty quick!:D

[TheWannaBe2007]

Good deal. Glad to hear it. If you run into troubles, just keep an ear to the ground. It looks like Tutorial 4 will be of my LCD display, which lights up which keys are pressed. Good luck to you!

[nappyheadedhobitch]

impatiently waiting for tutorial 4 (LCD) PLEASE !!!!!!
