      Great tutorial - and it's in the correct key of f-minor, not e-minor like the '80's fake book sheets back in the day had it in. Drives me crazy how those published sheets were always dumbed down. For example, I have a hardcopy 1962 sheet music edition of Vince Guaraldi's "Cast your fate to the wind" that's in A major, NOT A-flat major like you hear in the commercial recording (well at least in the track on the CD anthology I have, "Instrumental gems of the 60's" published on the Collectors' Choice Music record label) and Guaraldi's nuanced jazz improvisation in the middle section is eliminated in the sheet music altogether. For comparison, check out the Smithsonian edition of "Jelly Roll" Morton's collected piano music published by G. Schirmer.

      Start at 3:20 and slow it down from there if your trying to memorize the notes. Because you have to tell the viewer that you're repeating a part each time you repeat the finger movements when you repeat them midway through. I'm memorizing the keys as you hit them. Then I get confused as to whether you just repeated the keys or if it's a new set. Just tell me what you're doing each time you go back on the notes.
      But otherwise, no complaints. Good instructions. TY

      @user-iw5bl4fd6w Pƙed rokem +1

      @@HDpiano The D flat: On the left hand part you play the note and its octave, whereas in both hands part you play the d flat then pause (no octave) and repeat the d flat (although in the left hand part there is no repetition of the d flat, you go immediately to the e flat and its octave). You also do that in the intro when you play the whole song: One way with just left hand, the other way with both hands. Thank you very much for the tutorial btw.

    2 years late. That being said I have about 8 hours of piano playing in 3 days and can now play both hands of this song as well as a few other songs. I figure within 3-4 days I’ll be able to play both hands here at the same time and in tune. Found a new hobby that is pretty amazing.

      HDpiano thank fam working on it. Quick question. When you show how to play the left hand by itself, after the double C it goes
      Eflat- F- Dflat(low)- Dflat (high), then low and high Eflat and so on. When you put it together with both hands you seem to play instead two low Dflats back to back rather then the low high version. Which way is the correct way or am I missing something? 8:39 is when I noticed this while paused.

    Why when you play the left had its differemt what is taught “super duper slow”. When you play with both hands, different notes are played, such as d lfat twice, instead of a dflat and then up the octave.

      Just a tiny flub is all! The slow version is technically accurate.

    Back.when the networks used to edit movie content for television, you could watch "Beverly Hills Cop", "The Breakfast Club", etc. without being assailed by F-bombs, nude scenes, etc. Now you have to use content-filtering services like ClearPlay to have the same family-safe movie-viewing experience you used to get for free. Oh well... if you like Harold Faltermeyer's "Axel F" theme, check out his "Fletch" theme. You can tell it's the same composer

    It's that easy to play how many days its takes to learn

      Hard to guess how long it might take for one particular person to learn one particular song. There are so many factors at play: your experience level, your technique, length of practice sessions, frequency of practice sessions, focus level, etc. In any case, just be consistent and focused with your practice, and the results will come. Happy practicing!!
