I am 64, started to learn piano, very happy to see your video, the way you explained in details with this famous classical, very appreciate that. I will try my very best to achieve this. Thanks again.
Age doesn't matter... It's just a number ❤
Thank you very much. I started to learn playing piano at 55 in 2019. I am practicing “Fur Elise” right now , your video helps me a lot. Never too late to learn new things.HaHa.
Same here (59 and started 2 y ago)
Very good teaching my daughter learnt very fas after your lesson
I'm so glad
Extremely enlightening. I'm working on this at the moment and your walk through is worth a fortune. It's packed full of useful tips and guides. It even has a bit of humour which helps lighten the learning experience. Great bit of teaching, sir. Thank you so much.
I really love your video! Subscribed! I’m a beginner and learn piano mostly by myself as a hobby. I watched another CZcams clip for learning (Für Elise) exactly which notes should be played, and then your teaching gives a very nice touch on how to make it sound so nice! I enjoyed your humor along the way too. Found your clip when I stuck at the octave speedy part. I hope I can overcome this. Will come back here so often until I manage to finish Für Elise.
"Sounds terrible that way" hard to believe when you sounded so good
Thank you very healpful, Just started learning this at 27 haha and its helping me alot, thank you, keep it up. You are very good and talented.
Only 2 minutes in, and I have to say: THANK YOU!
Nicely broken down ! Would like to hear you play it Tony ! Thanks ...
This is on my bucket list👍
Extremely helpful. Thank you
I'm on my 18 week of playing the piano and I've started with this song. I have a ways to go before I have these skills. I made a mini video on my page about it from week 1 to 14. It's a tough song. Thank you so much for sharing!
Thank you so much! This was SUPER helpful!
Wow 🤩 I loved the video so good tips thank you so much ... exactly when I am learning this and I am a beginner also ❤️
Beautifully explained
Thank you for this
Im 61 but still wants to learn fur elise... though slowly grasping and internalizing if i really can do it... i'm positive that with your simple way of teaching, i need to learn even if it takes more more time..thank you sir
Where does the flourish at 7:35 come from? I've heard a couple of people playing it this way, but It's not on any of the music sheets I know.
I will post a link to the sheet music. The flourish is indicated by the curly line above the note. It is called a turn.
@@TonyWinston Thank you.

Is this how beethoven intended it? With the flourish thing
Amazing. I love. Thanks!!!!
That was really helpful.
Great video. Though I don't understand why you would change fingering between runs on the same passage.
The best way to understand the fingering is to learn and practice the fingering. Then try it your way and you'll see why your way is inferior.
Can you please do a jazz version of für Elise? That would be awesome
DON'T LOOK AT MY PROFILE PICTURE I could but my concience won't let me. Sorry.... But keep watching my videos and I'll do a little jazz with it
thank you.
Thx
Sehr gut erklärt.
I just found your videos and I found them to be excellent. Please speak a bit louder. Thank you.
Could you explain why you are doing the 3 2 1 on A when it’s easier to do with just one finger at 15:54
Keeps the hand relaxed, but it really doesn't make much difference.
Excellent instruction, down to earth
So there’s no pedal in the second movement im guessing
What do you mean by 2nd movement? Anyway, pedal can be used in all of the sections. I would not use it in the b section where the right hand has 32nd notes.
@@TonyWinston is the b section you are referring to the part where the melody completely changes. Thats what i mean by 2nd movement, the happier sounding part?
Yes .
What is the piece you are playing at 13:05
beethoven pathetique sonata opus 13 second movement.
Tony Winston thanks!
Tk
Amazing video !! sir but please speak a little louder...
Your E-D#-E-D# sequence is wrong. It’s how most amateurs play
Look at the sheet. The notes are SHORT and they are legato, should flow. Also here’s something many versions omit but is there in the original version of Beethoven. The phrase first increases in volume ..then decreases in volume ending at A. It’s a delicate piece butchered by most amateurs.
I was enjoying the video until you said you have no feeling for the piece “just ice water in your veins.” Don’t do a tutorial on a piece and then disrespect it at the same time.
I would love to learn from this video if I could hear it. Ugh
All that hand switching on the octaves is just nonsense. Economy of motion.
I usually agree with economy of motion, but by making certain gestures, the timing of a phrase will be affected. And I believe Beethoven wrote it thi way. It's not difficult either way so why not have fun with it
@@TonyWinston I would like to see a source for him writing that fingering.
I find it looks pretentious and arrogant tbh.
@@spiritsplice then don't do it!
I don't. Do you have that source?
