    Hi there!
    Here's a piano cover of "Let it be" by The Beatles played like Paul McCartney on a Blüthner Model 6 piano, the same used at Apple Records for the recording sessions.
    Thanks for watching and please don't forget to subscribe my channel!

      @@AlexMcUpright as a complete novice learning this I notice my timing falls behind on the first two verses. To me it seems like the first two verses (0:16 to 0:35) speed up a little. This is true when I play with the Beatles recorded version as well. Do the first two verses speed up in your opinion? Or is it just my beginner skills?

      I think (and I’m probably wrong!), but I think that chord is a Dm6 with an A in the bass. This little chord adds so much melancholy to the song! I kind of hear it as almost a mistake as on the single version, on the words ‘Mother Mary’ you go straight to the A minor. I’ve always preferred this version which includes that added Dm6/A

    @johnknoop42 Před 2 měsíci

    I know it cant entirely be recreated unless using a Bluthner (and even then no Bluthner sounds exactly like the original) but how on Earth can I get a sound anything close to the piano in this song! Any time I hear it on a keyboard it sounds so much higher even though its not being played any higher! High high end keyboards and pianos seems to be better but even then

  • @gustavomrezende

    Why is it that when I play the exact same notes, they sound different? It's almost like my piano is sorta "transposed". Awesome rendition, btw!

      @@user-no6ol4sf5l I'd bet my money on that it wasn't a mistake. Rather, it seems to be a purposeful artistic decision, that masterfully accents the word 'mother' with the disharmony of longing and sadness (McCartney's mother died when he was a young boy).

    • @Kprywatne
      @Kprywatne Před 2 lety +6

      That is not a mistake, that chord accents "Mother Mary". He wakes up to the sound of music and a vision of Mother Mary appears (which to him, is his mother, but to the listener is meant to be a religious vision of the Virgin Mary). The vision of Mother Mary is unsettling and dramatic. That chord masterfully cuts through the repetitive and "corny" chords at the right moment as a reveal to "Mother Mary". SO simple, yet so good.
