Tutorial: Comptine D'un Autre Été: L'apres Midi - Yann Tiersen

This tutorial took less time than the others to make, as there's quite a lot of repetition.

This is a quite easy song to learn, but when playing it you'll probably feel it in your hands. Naturally you'll play the ending slower than in this video. Sorry if some of the parts are too fast, but it was either that or twice as slow...

Green dots: Right hand.
Red dots: Left hand.

Thank you for all the great comments! :D

thank you so much it's so good! I always wanted to play this song and I've been practising for 4 days now every evening a few minutes and i can play it finally!! Just a little question, maybe I'm wrong but isn't the last part the same as part 4 only that the right hand is one octave higher?

@kiflicaodcokolade Thank you, that's nice to hear! It's absolutely true what you're pointing out: part 7 is the same as part 4, with the right hand placed an octave higher. I guess the reason why I didn't specify that in the tutorial is because of the ending (which of course would only appear in part 7), but when thinking about it now, I realize it was a bit silly leaving it out. Oh well. Enjoy playing! :)

Thanks for the video, friend. You give hope to people who don't know how the hell to read sheet music! :)

@drstrangelove1968 That's the main idea. ;) Hope you'll enjoy!

Hello, you.

I don't know anything about piano. Never touched one in my entire life; i only play guitar.

But to me, this song is the prettiest thing i've ever heard, and i'm actually working my ass off to learn how to play it. Of course, i don't know anything about the keys on the piano and stuff, but thanks to your tutorial, and practicing a bit everyday, i think i can learn it in a month ... i hope so at least ?

thank you so much for your help, your tutorial is great !

@TheRealTeenDisaster Hi. I think it's great you're trying so hard to learn with no basic knowledge at all! You seem to be working hard on this project, and though it's difficult for me to say anything about your progress, I'm convinced you'll manage soon enough. Thank you very much, I wish you the best of luck and a lot of fun while learning this piece! :)

Finally got the 4th part sorted!! Thanks so much! For those of you who are finding it really hard too just keep going and finally you WILL get it.

@TheRealTeenDisaster IF you can read sheet music; you should compare the song that you have learned, with the (downlodeable) sheet music of this song. hopefully, this will extend your knowledge about the piano.

@GuessIRemainUnnamed Hey, I've learned the first 3 parts all by ear, but now I'm trying really hard to get part 4. It's hard, but I've learned these first parts in 3 days, so this must be doable I hope ^_^ I just have to find the time! Thanks for the tutorial.
