About three weeks ago, I finally took the courage to take on a real instrument.
Although I did used to play the harmonica, that was quite some time ago (Elementary school).
I was very much hooked by the piano, and began my ambitious attempt at Für Elise.
Though at first seemed impossible, it got better after a couple of pointers by a student of mine.
And now three weeks later, here it is.
This is no where near perfection. In fact, you very much will think this is rubbish. But it will get better, I am sure.
Tips and suggestions are very much appreciated.
I will be spending quite some time to practice this song. At the same time, I will give Mozart's Turkish March a shot.
Till next time.
The music should... flow, it's REALLy spearated here. It's like this:
Ba-ba-BUMMMM-ba-ba-BUMMM
When it should be:
BabababUMMbababaBUMMMM
For example. Bring your hands closer up to the keys, it's easier that way and relax your shoulders. No one likes sitting all tense, especcially when they're hunched over (One more thing- don't hunch over!!!). But, Really, pretty good!

From what I can see, it would help if you sit a little farther from the piano, and to make the chair a little higher. And to just play this very freely with constant motion.

Your basic music paragraphs are well stated
Relaxation is the main thing
