Beethoven Moonlight Sonata 1st mvt Piano Tutorial Part 1

Request from the U.S. This is Part 1 (of 3), measures 1 to 19.
I am indebted to @nghichngomvua, who found an error in Measure 16 (5:05): last RH chord should be B/A#, not A#/A# (above LH E/E)

"Moonlight Sonata" is the popular name for Beethoven's Piano Sonata No. 14 in C-sharp Minor ("Quasi una fantasia"), Opus 27, No. 2, which was completed in 1801 and is probably the most famous of all Beethoven's piano sonatas.

@panda1spoon1me2 hmmm, i have small hands. look carefully and compare the key sizes? :)

[shimazu122112]

Ohhh lvl 6? but its kind the slow compare to the 2nd mov is kind the fast?

[bbdhrggl]

@shimazu122112 I found the 2nd mvt easier to play. keep in mind my levels are guesses :)

[PlanktonPoker]

Which level is this piece?

[bbdhrggl]

@PlanktonPoker The 1st mvt is about level 6, 2nd level 5, 3rd mvt level 10 (my guesses: one with that number yrs of serious playing can learn the piece w/o much difficulty , and might master it after lots of practice)

Thank you! Finally, someone who realizes that it's tough to learn if you just play it at regular speed in a video. Now I can easily catch the fingering. You're awesome.
