MY GOD YOUR FINGERS ARE LONG

That is totally a good thing, by the way. My fingers are like stumps.

@cocojaixoxo my fingers are not long even though many think so. look at the black keys. see how they are long and narrow? camera distortion :)

Thank you so much for taking the time and effort to make this wonderful tuturial. Because of your endeavours I have finally managed to master this piece. I performed this piece during school assembly last week and recieved a standing ovation from both parents and pupils. Thank you once again. I shall now attempt River Flows In You.

@74oceanbreeze Thank you for your feedback. My sincere congratulations on your success! I never got a standing O. :) River is much easier, you might master it in one day.

And something we all have to remember : the beginning is everything, speed comes later. It is very important not to be harsh on ourselves and that is relaxing our hands and making some piano exercises before we start playing.

(I hope I made myself clear , sorry for my english)

@breathehtid I suppose when you say that this song is difficult to be played well,you mean that it's difficult to be played exactly as the original.I think that since this piece is written down in notes with hrythm and marks for pedal etc everyone can play it absolutely well.So to all the beginners,be VERY carefull in playing notes, in what notes you have to hold down in order you expand its sound and the moments you push the pedal.Btw thank you dear lady for being so exact in your playing :)

Brilliant video, I'm not far away now from playing my favourite song! Finally!

Thank you for your great job, I think you're something like an angel <3 I learned poorly to play the piano when I was a child but I never found someone to help me learn it seriously, because of you, to learn to play the piano has become simple and beautiful. Thank you, thank you, thank you ! (And sorry for the TERRIBLE english)
