[panda1764255]

@GuessIRemainUnnamed ps. great videos! they were very helpful!

[panda1764255]

@GuessIRemainUnnamed what program did you use to make this tutorial?

[GuessIRemainUnnamed]

@panda1764255 No special program, just the old fashioned and slow way with Paint, Lilypond and Windows Movie Maker. And yes, it is unproductive! ;)

[iCalviin]

Where can I get the MIDI?

[lifeisgood613]

This is great, a really awesome tutorial. You should make more

[acceb96]

Love this. Its so easy to learn from this! Can you make one for "legends of the fall" please and can u email my account when you've done it :) thanks :)

[GuessIRemainUnnamed]

@acceb96 Thank you, I'm glad you find it helpful! :) I don't really know that song, so I doubt it will be the next one I make. I'm sorry.

[22Unlucky]

@GuessIRemainUnnamed The song is "The ludlows" by James Horner, from the Legends of the fall´s OST.

[GuessIRemainUnnamed]

@22Unlucky Thank you for clarifying. I wouldn't keep my hopes up, as a new semester is about to start, and there will be a lot going on. But thank you for the suggestion!

[gentleonmymind1966]

Thanks!!!

[denimdnmd]

trying to learn it and i love the visualization using this program.

some lessons you can't learn anything because the either camera quality is poor, angle is bad or the hand is concealing the keys!!

what is the name ofthe program you used here? can there be tabs downloaded for it like e.g. gp tabs for guitar pro?

thanks anyway!

[GuessIRemainUnnamed]

@denimdnmd Thank you very much! No specific program used; it was made in Paint, Lilypond and Windows Movie Maker. If there's any downloadable program out there, I'm afraid I don't know about it. ;)

[jolitamia]

I really appreciate your video, but can you indicate how fast the parts when you show how to play are please?

Thank you =).

[GuessIRemainUnnamed]

@jolitamia That would have been a good idea, thank you for pointing it out! :)

[sauromano]

is hard for me :(

how can i practice to make diferents movements with diferents hands? is hard for me :(

[morghath]

thanks for the share

[ezcomezgo11]

I found it in several places quite easily, musicnotes, scribd sheetmusicplus music44 modernpianomusic, greatscores sheetmusicdirect and I am sure there are others. I do presume you know how to use google. I purchased it myself at musicnotes. Making copies of copyrighted music is theft by definition. If you don't like being called a thief, then stop advertising that you are one. Musicians make little enough as it is.

[mestmaker]

you are great ...thank you very very much for sharing this video with us ...:)

[Guinea1284]

Ha tjmd nen link zu den Noten....main hardtop steht nämlich selten neben dem klavier XD

[FaKa344]

I miss the very difficult part...in the end :D nobody can play it :D

[maggan13]

if you could send me the sheet music i would be very happy o and u are a greet piano player

[GuessIRemainUnnamed]

I don't have them here, I'm sorry! :/

[ezcomezgo11]

@maggan13

Alan Silvestri, the composer, is alive and well. Why don't you buy the sheet music instead of stealing it and cheating him of the fruits of his labor?

[maggan13]

@ezcomezgo11 why dont you mind your own bussnes i love playing the piano and this song but i cant find it any where

[SaraVampy]

Simple: I love you!! *__* you are genial!! i love how you okay the piano!!! and thank for the tutorial!! you will be a great person in the piano's world!! ^^

[GuessIRemainUnnamed]

Hehe, thanks, that's very nice of you!

[GuessIRemainUnnamed]

Just take your time, you will improve and manage. :)

[ItzmePhilip]

I really like how you put parts into your tutorials instead of just putting it all together.

This way I can learn a part everyday and I practice.

Its time to learn.

[spoljccro]

[Bri5780]

Exactly not everyone learns at the same pace the person on the other side of the camera is going @ I was trying to learn "How to play Wings from Brokeback Mountain" and the guy wasn't prepared @ all he's all uuuuhhhh and moving the camera constantly.

[katladevote]

[KTWYO]

Thank you so much for doing this. I have been able to play most this song since I was 14. I always have been able to play the being and the end of this song but have never been able to figure out the middle. This is going to help me out, I am so excited to be able to play the whole song through.

[FogofDestiny]

cause...in the japanese or german construction B=H..in germany its A..H..C..D..E..F..G

[GuessIRemainUnnamed]

It's the same for me actually, but I thought people knew about it :p My bad.

[user3098304]

great! 5*

but it is to fast for me, and there is no B on my YAMAHA keyboard^^

[GuessIRemainUnnamed]

Haha, what? No B? :P How did that happen... Yes I understand you think it's too fast, but if I made it slower it would be way too slow. And long. Thanks!

[ugcsred2011]

THANK YOU!!!!!!!very easy to understand now :)

[kingaguilla12]

this is a great tutorial! i'm already in part 4! thanks a lot for posting this vid!

[ilurrvemusic]

[Claudiia1234]

Thank you so much for this one! :) And I'd appreciate it so much if you, by a chance, have time to post up a tutorial of "The Heart Asks For Pleasure First". Thank you for all of your helpful tutorial renditions.

[GuessIRemainUnnamed]

We'll see what happens, but I'll keep it in mind. Thank you :)

[MistaHooong]

[MistaHooong]

alright well due me a favor and keep that song in mind =)

[salzdt]

Great tutorial. Do you belong to Piaon Wrold Forum? It's a wonderful international forum, I think you would enjoy sharing some of your ideas. The green and red are great for noting right and left hands. Hope you post more tutorials. Thanks.

[GuessIRemainUnnamed]

No, I don't. Wouldn't mind checking it out, though. Thank you, I'm glad you like my ideas!

[panmnm]

your tutorials are the best!

[stuartclarke2007]

[R0SAR0TEWELT]

That's great,fantastic. !Thank you so much. i've learned the song already THANK YOU (:

[ThuhStrike]

Dangit, I wish i could play this song, and this tutorial makes it really easy, but i just can't keep the right rhythm with my left hand while playing with my right at the same time. It sucks cus i really want to learn this.

[GuessIRemainUnnamed]

Just keep trying... I know that sucks, but it's the only way you'll learn it (I think) :P

[powerplaym]

Great !!!

Thanks man. It really helps. Keep doing it couse it`s great. :)

[tuamotos]

[PKzAChris]

[Strandingen]

I dont know if its possible or something and it was just something i were thinking :). But is it possible you can make a tutorial for World Trade Center theme? :P.. If you could it would be so GREAT! but dont know if its possible :P and thanks for this tutorial ;D<3 ive learned the song already thank you thank you thank you so much!

[GuessIRemainUnnamed]

I'm not making tutorials now, so I'll have to disappoint you... Anyways I don't have the sheet music, so it would be a little difficult :P

[AlyandAJxx]

This is a good way to learn but could you do more well-known songs like a Aly and AJ one?!?!

[LordLoss007]

Tusen takk!

[Strandingen]

Ah ok :-)! well its fine ;-)! i got it in notes anyways so i think ill find out how to do :-) But Thanks ;)

[chingchinglu]

[Strandingen]

Part 3 2:31 is really fast i think :-)

[Strandingen]

Could you maybe make a tutorial like this just slower :-)? That would be nice ;-)

[Strandingen]

Awesome :-) !! Its rly good! i Mean it ! But its a little fast :-P! So i have to replay it many times to get it. But really gr8 job :-)

[GuessIRemainUnnamed]

Thanks! Yes I expected to get that response from some people :P The thing is, if I make it slower, it goes reeeeally slowly... Also, the video will be too long to post here.

[WereIsTheTerd]

mate google vdownloader its a software which lets you take video clips of youtube, prety much self explanatory its awsome so you can slow it down

[GuessIRemainUnnamed]

Thank you for the tip, I'll check it out ;)

[fedorhunt]

[fedorhunt]

how does one unselfishly spend hours on making a tutorial of something beatiful that others can download for free?

[GuessIRemainUnnamed]

Haha, thank you. Well it pays off when people appreciate what I do.

5 stars!

[ney46]

muito bommmm (brasil é o melhorrrrrr)

[jalana012]

your toturials are great, just played the theme of "amelie" (don't know how it's called in englisch, but in german it's "Die fabelhafte welt der amelie").

in my opinion, the parts where you show the song with keys are too slow, it's really hard to hear the melody of the song...

i hope you know what i mean^^

well, can you do these a bit faster, would be easier for me to learn the songs.

thx very much :)

[GuessIRemainUnnamed]

I know they are too slow, but I made the tutorial that way so it's actually possible to see what keys are being pressed :P That's why there's a part with only sound before it is shown with keys, so that you'll get the melody... So sorry, but I won't change it. I hope you'll still manage :)

[spidersanz8]

Good tutorial.....

[GuessIRemainUnnamed]

Thank you...

[ghinga7girl]

what is the time signature and tempo for this song?

[GuessIRemainUnnamed]

Time signature: 4/4

Tempo: Not set on the sheet music, but in the video it is played in 110. I believe the soundstrack is 107 - 108.

[13ronx]
