Hello, I'm Rousseau, I make piano covers of classical and pop songs with a reactive visualizer. New videos every Monday!

Beethoven. Moonlight sonata. 1st movement. This whole sonata has been one of the most requested pieces, so here is the 1st movement! The next two movements will be coming soon, in a few months, unfortunately I'm not good enough to sightread the 3rd at tempo :( I just want to thank you all for being here and watching my videos, I'm practicing hard for something special for you next week!
Rousseau how did you write that in like 10 seconds
Rousseau I'm looking forward to it! Keep up the amazing work, love lots from the Philippines!â€â€â€
OOOH it sounds exciting for whatâs to comeeeee!! I canât wait
Keep it up bro that 3rd movement is a beast but i think you can handle that next will be la campanella by liszt hehe
The 3rd movement, it's so so hard :0
MOVEMENT 1: makes the audience cry
MOVEMENT 3: makes the pianist cry
No kiddin I learned the first movement and Iâm crying just thinking about learning the third.
Lol I laughed so hard but wasn't supposed to đ

Hello.
My dad really liked that song, today he unfortunately passed away from covid and we are listening to these songs at his wake because he liked them a lot. Now every time I hear this song it will bring back good memories of my father. To whoever has read my comment, take care of yourself and blessings to all his family.
God bless you bro. And your father. Sad to here this. May the winds guide his spirit to heaven.
Sorry to hear about your old man.

Bro thinks he's the eminence in shadow
@@Coureur-on8hnthat is exactly what I was thinking lmfao
@@Coureur-on8hni swear i was gonna say this
When Beethoven passed away, he was buried in a churchyard. A couple days later, the town drunk was walking through the cemetery and heard some strange noise coming from the area where Beethoven was buried. Terrified, the drunk ran and got the priest to come and listen to it. The priest bent close to the grave and heard some faint, unrecognizable music coming from the grave. Frightened, the priest ran and got the town magistrate.
When the magistrate arrived, he bent his ear to the grave, listened for a moment, and said, "Ah, yes, that's Beethoven's Ninth Symphony, being played backwards."
He listened a while longer, and said, "There's the Eighth Symphony, and it's backwards, too. Most puzzling." So the magistrate kept listening; "There's the Seventh... the Sixth... the Fifth..."
Suddenly the realization of what was happening dawned on the magistrate; he stood up and announced to the crowd that had gathered in the cemetery, "My fellow citizens, there's nothing to worry about. It's just Beethoven decomposing."

Laughed harder than I should have haha đ
Wasted time on reading this bad joke... Worth it
Good one
Ugh, take my like
Movement 1- Depression hits you like a truck
Movement 2- the calm before the storm
Movement 3- all hell breaks loose
That sounds like the plot of a short anime called Kyoukai no Kanata
1st Movement doesn't sound depressive at all. Serene and contemplative are more like it.
Matheus Cruz I agree with you there
I canât even play the 3rd movement at 1 bpm.
I find the first movement very uplifting
Imagine how proud beethoven must have been after creating this masterpiece it is music that will stand the test of time I absolutely love it and always will
Simp
True dat!
Yes I am very proud
@@LudwigVanBeethoven-zw5fqwhen you finished the piece, was it raining outside?
He was proud, but it I heard he didnt like the popularity of this sonata, because he felt the other sonatas he wrote were better and didnt receive the same attention
As you listen, you enjoy. But the song has a very secret ingredient. A kind of pain. That is because Beethoven started to become deaf the time he wrote this song. Beethoven also has a magic of endless creativity in our hearts. He stuffed his feelings inside each song he made. And when when we hear, the feelings bring back memories of the past. Praise to Beethoven â€â€â€
pain can be heard in much of his memorable pieces, and I feel where Chopin came from, he was smart but his downfalls were social aspects of his life, like I am
Thatâs so sad đ
We all face challenges in life, ones that we feel we cannot overcome in the moment but God knows we can handle it because he is watching us. In this case one of the worlds greatest composers faced with losing that which defined his very life. Music. To hear. And yet... he continued on, persevered and made more of his music. One would think how is that possible? How cynically cruel is God to do this? But to this day we all know his name and music. There is beauty in God's tribulations, his divine ways may confuse us sometimes but in the end it paints a picture for us to understand. Beethoven's music is beautiful. God Bless everyone.
Fun fact, this was composed during the period when Beethovenâs hearing was deteriorating but not entirely gone, he could hear lower notes better than the higher ones then, hence the low notes in this song. Even then, he managed to produce this beautiful composition despite his condition.
A perfectly normal Internet user so uhm what about the 3rd movement
Ur actually wrong the 5th symphony was when he started losing his hearing this was a love song for a women who never fell in love with him
If you can't hear a normal acoustic piano then you really must be going deaf!
@@asne4174 Same with Appassionata...
Everything happens for a reason...like he was almost meant to create this magnificent masterpiece
âTo play a wrong note is insignificant; to play without passion is inexcusable.â Ludwig Van Beethoven
o cool, I like his attitude, imagine the sonorities ringing through the castle or wherever he was staying while he was there with a piano or a band. Sometimes I wonder if they could be heard through the whole town on a quiet night while they were practising/composing/jamming? đŻ
I don't think there were any bands in that time, besides orchestras and bands of street musicians. Any person in that time isn't anywhere "with a piano". The piano is with them. More precisely they are (mostly) bound by where some piano is. It's always been difficult to move those things anywhere. You wouldn't simply travel with it.
@@ViliamF. Ignore that guy. He's on crack or something.
"Jammin" with a "band" he said. "While he was there with a piano" like you'd be somewhere with a guitar. As if you're just going to strap up a grand piano, sling it over your back, and travel around with one. đ€Ł
@@ViliamF. beautiful thought.
@Richard Ennis very interesting, unfortunately, you could fit everyone who asked inside of a shoebox.
Basically, 1st movement is like sunset, and then 2nd one is like a dreamy music, and 3rd movement is an alarm.
The First one is Right But i would say that the second one is More like having fun at Night and The third one is Like a City Waking up in a Rush to go to work
lolz
@@TNYC_OFFICIAL-fish I like that
ĐĐ° đ
No the 3rd movement is a release of anger and emotion you've been holding inside for months, years perhaps all let loose in one song.
As rather a beginner pianist, I'm really proud to have learned the first few measures of this song. It's really pretty, and I love playing it.
same! are you planning on learning the whole thing?
@@sminhas38 Maybe someday. It's rather a difficult song!
@@Destructaconn lol im also just learning the shorter simpler version for now
I highly recommend learning it, it's a blast to learn and rather easy to remember compared to other pieces...for a long time I could only play the first page but now that I can play the whole thing I have to say every second of practicing was worth it
@@Destructaconnfirst step to being a great pianist is calling it a piece not a song.
1st Movement: Yeah I maybe can learn this.
2nd Movement: Bit harder, but okay.
3rd Movement: *Dies*

The lights corresponding with the keys makes it seem so easy to just follow along and play, despite this being a very stretchy and extremely difficult piece to play
Is it really that difficult?
@@surgrus4367 Well I'm a self taught pianist and it's complicated, but if you practice a lot then it will be easier, at least for me that's how it was (sorry for my bad english)
@@icallyoumoonchild Learning it myself and i find it relatively easy, seeing people calling it difficult is motivating đđ
im coming here after practicing 3rd movement after stopping piano for like 4 years and i no longer feel so bad about myself not doing that well
@@surgrus4367As far as technicality goes itâs not a super fast or hard piece, itâs just chords and itâs slow, but having small hands makes it hard to make some of those stretches. Not knowing any theory and trying to learn everything by ear doesnât help either. Iâve been playing blues guitar for around 7 years, but have minimal experience with piano and can still make it through the first few measures no problem.

is Music but when Beethoven created this piece made WITH feelings
I was 8 years old when this was played on some Goosebumps episode....I spent YEARS searching for it, thinking it was the most beautiful song ever written...until I found it finally on the OG Napster, and I can now say, 28 years later this is still the most beautiful song ever written.
search for the other movements like the 3rd movement or search for the whole song as this is only one third of the entire song
1st Movement: Depression and Despair
2nd Movement: Happiness and Pleasure
3rd Movement: Anger

People said it was impossible for beethoven to learn music, but what did he do? He didnt listen to them
Lol
Oh my
That's dark. I love it

Pravda
A lot of people say the first movement is not that hard. But to keep the consistency of the note presses and slowness is actually very hard
Me: Let's Lear a new song:D
Very true. Also, bringing out the melody in this piece is very, very important, something many people don't realize.
Agreed. Started learning it a few days ago. Harder than it sounds.
Pedals are everything in this song.
To play it right, is hard... Pressing notes is easy, but playing with emotions is hard
This melody is atomic
Nice referenceđ
It's rare that I find a song that can actually bring a tear to my eye but this one did it.
It's not a song. It's a piece.
@@CharlotteMacrickens idk bro I could probably sing it.
@isaakvandaalen3899 If you want to sing this piece, you can do an opera through it.
Beethovenâs music is so beautiful , and the fact that he couldnât hear the whole time amazes me
Maybe if he could hear, we wouldn't be able to listen this creation.
@@migdegazozu He composed this in the middle of his career when he still had his hearing.
When Beethoven composed this he could still hear. Tho by that time his hearing was already starting to fade.
@The Shield He went completely deaf around the time he was 44 or 45. He died aged 56. So about the last 10 years of his life he was completely deaf.
I would like your comment but it's at the number 69,so I don't want to ruin that number you got there
That color matches so beautifully with the piece, it makes the whole video so perfect
I thought the same its just SO pleasing in every way possible
Yeah and the little streams of light that come from it just make it so much more moony, itâs so awesome and peaceful!
I think a darker blue color matches this piece better. This is white with a tint of sky blue.
itâs like moonlight đ
Im really agree with that
It's timeless nomatter the year. We still listen, broken or not. Mostly broken. Yet soothing to the soul as if your not alone in the world....who actually still feels. Even if it is pain....you still feel. Yours or others.

it is interesting, it plays as if it will pick up speed and keeps pulling back to a slower pace, back and forth, back and forth. you would think it would become clunky. atleast thats what i get out of it, such genius in a simple piece of music.
Same here man. Hands down my favorite piece, so thoughtful yet so mysterious
This music piece tells the story of Beethoven when he was deaf if you imagine it

@@rickspalding3047 spot on! This arrangement reminds me of waves lapping up and back at a beach, not the atmosphere but the patterns sort of haha like a weird metaphore.
My dads dad used to olay this alot. He never really was able to finish it because he got super ill and eventually passed away. 2 years before i was born.
My dad hold me just today, that this piece is not about beeing able to hit the right notes at the right time, but to put emotion into the song. What a beautifull piece of art.

@@zaloskog yeah you could say it like that too
well tytyty.
i've been playing this piece for about 50 years {first movement only, so far ...}.
it's a gorgeous piece of music and it's quite clear to see why it is so loved and so played by so many.
however, i have always played a couple of the base notes incorrectly.
it's those double sharp things that always messed me up.
i stumbled across you recently when i told myself i must try somehow and find a way to find out what i was doing wrong.
i tell ya, i wish we would have had you in those good old days.
all you lucky new young 'uns.
relearning a piece that you've played incorrectly all this time is tough, but with your ideal view point looking down i've been able to see the correct notes being played and have corrected my playing and now sound as good as you ... well i could only wish, but i'm getting there.
thanks again, what a wonderful way to learn.

this truly is one of the most beautiful piano pieces in my opinion. itâs amazing how beethoven created these masterpieces while struggling with his deafness.
You could say he didn't hear the music he felt it
I believe he wasnt deaf at the time he wrote this piece.
@@paulpeeman8681 he was partially deaf and couldnât hear the highest of the highest notes, that is why you would notice that the song is mostly in the lower octaves.
In the Beethoven' s Sonata quasi una Fantasia, op 27 no 2, the 1-st movement, Adagio, is considered the first piece composed in romantic style, it marks the begining of the romantism in music.
Just love how you manage to get the forte note with the pinkie.. this note is the soul of this piece!
Everytime I hear this masterpiece I feel like shadow himself
I see you came here from him as well

When I was in fourth grade, I was being bullied a lot. I've always had a hard time talking to people, and I liked more to read during lunch than to converse. My teacher did nothing about the bullying, even when my OT counselor came in one day, observed what was going on, and complained directly to the principal. I don't remember much at all about 4th grade, leading me to suspect I may have blocked most of my memories from that year.
There was only one person who stood up for me, and was the only one nice to me. I'll call him Martin for privacy's sake. Martin was the only one who would tell the bullies to leave me alone, and would help me out when I needed. One thing I remember distinctly about him was that he didn't like pizza, which, for a 9-year old me, was very strange.
One day, our class went to the music room, and there Martin played a small part of Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata. I was captivated, and I believe that moment to be the one where I decided to take piano lessons. I've been playing for about 6 years now, and wouldn't be here if it weren't for Martin and Moonlight Sonata.
Shortly after, Martin moved away. I transferred to a private school for the rest of 4th grade, and had the best time at the private school. I loved my classmates there, and I loved my teacher. At the end of the year, he handed out these trophies to all of us. Mine was the Bravery Award, for overcoming hurdles that were not present for the other students. I still have the trophy.
this was a nice story, glad it ended up well and you found your way
Nice story man!

đ€Łđ€Łexactly...
This is the masterpiece of music
This is the end of the world's credit music
This comment is it.
Oh my goodness
That's happy and sad at the same time
Jesus i just had an image of credits rolling and every single human that has ever existed just rolling down XD
@@MikeJones-qn1gz all the world's a stage đŻ
I would love to listen to this when the world is ending and crumbling... Relaxing, sad, and happy at the same time for some reason...
Then watch Spider-Man Web of Shadows intro cutscene
How?
(Insert how cat here)
Yeahhhhh I noticed some happy parts in mvt 1
I listen to this on loop at night while I sleep. I love sleeping...đ
I know right?!
I'm learning this right now. Such a pleasure to learn. Love those bass chords so much!
Imo. This piece perfectly encapulates the essence and feeling of the night. It's peaceful, mysterious and haunting.
nice pfp, where can i find it??
Thus the title- so beautiful and serene
this isn't a song please... people need to stop making this terrible mistake, this is making me CRINGE ! A song has LYRICS... THIS IS MUSIC, or a "PIECE" but most definitely not a song đ«
@Sarah HAMIA my bad, but for fuck's sake, stop nitpicking dude. Doesn't matter if it's a song or a piece. The meaning of the statement still remains the same regardless of what i call it.
@@youraverageguy8431
Yes. But it's still music. and not a song
This piece.. I went from hating it to loving it.. hating it because when my beloved father was bed ridden for 8 years and I was his carer heâd start his day with this piece, and Iâd say â dad do u want me to skip this?â Hoping heâd say yes, only to respond with ânoâ it would depress me and make me cry, obviously not infront of my father tho.. he passed away last year, and suddenly had the urge to learn it which I did, I imagine myself playing it to him whilst he lays.. I have to play it everyday everyday once. Itâs a beautiful piece, one of pain, sorrow and closure. It brings it all out.
Im sorry to hear that
Folkert de Vries thank you
Hussain Shugaa listen to neon gravestones by twenty one pilots. it is a very powerful song about suicide prevention and it happens to be this piece with modified keys..
I understand what you mean. My grandparents passed away and a friend within a year of each other and I play Chopin's prelude in e minor every single day as my way of saying goodbye and to let them know that they're still in my thoughts
Amazing life history.. Your history.
Keep your father on your heart..
P. S He still listen you, make him proud.
Respect
Nothing like watching the snow fall at 12 midnight and sitting quietly smoking a bowl. Perfect. Blissful. Peaceful.
I love how they put this in an anime
GUYS I LEARNED HOW TO PLAY IT THIS IS THE FIRST PIECE I FINISHED
THATS SO COOL !!!
AAAHHH
Cool! But if your a pianist and will play the third movement. Well, all hell will break loose and you'll be crying wishing for more hands.
Congratulations bro
Its medium though but very nice
I started learning this piece (from this video) about 3 and a half months ago and I just finished it and oh my goodness I'm proud of myself :)
Congrats!! I started learning it about a month and a half ago and i just got halfway through it! Canât wait to finish :)
@@emilyroseclubb9090 aww thank you :) good luck to you, keep it up
Omg wow!! I'm only Grade 3 but I've finished all my Abrsm peices and I don't really know what to play right now but I don't think I'm a high enough garde to learn this peice haha. How did you learnt this by the way, did you just watch videos or print the sheet of music and sight read it? Congrats again for comleteing the peice, that's such an accomplishment đ
@@annegitau2931 aww thank you so so much!! what I did was break it up into little pieces, memorize those one by one until it was like a 15-30 second section and I would practice each section untill I had it down and then repeat. I would spend like an hour or so maybe on each section (or just until I got frustrated to be honest). also before I started a new section or when I was frustrated I would run through everything I already learned to remember. Some of the sections that were harder for me I wrote down and practiced a lot to make it a little easier until I had it memorized. I'm not sure if that helps at all but that's what worked out for me. I can't read music at all or anything but because have good muscle memory and learn fast so this worked out for me ÂŻ\_(ă)_/ÂŻ I just realized how much I wrote lol I hope it helped a little :) good luck with the piece!
I'm trying to learn this piece too but I only play by ear bc I unfortunately can't read sheet music on piano
There is so much feeling and emotion in this song, it is my all time favorite piano piece. I could listen to it forever.
I've been memorizing this piece for the past few weeks. It's one of the most beautiful pieces I've ever heard which is why i really enjoy playing it. I just got a new digital piano and it's so much fun playing on a full size keyboard.
Link for the digital piano?
Such a beautiful song. It's a shame that so few people enjoy classical music. My friends always thought I was weird for enjoying classical music.
darkwzrd4 we are weird, but thatâs what makes us superior
Taste in music??
They think im weird when I listen to it, but then when I play it, they either get jelous or cry.
I'd prefer Beethoven over drake any day
I had an epiphany moment when I was a kid because of a friend's love of classical music. I went to his house to buy a computer from him, and he invited me into his room and said "You've got to listen to this!" and proceeded to play a record of Beethoven and I was blown away. Not by Beethoven at the time but by my friend, who was as excited by this music as others were of contemporary popular music. And I did start listening to classical after that. I don't think that we are superior, but there is a difference between Classical, planned music, and popular music. I only play popular music, on piano and guitar, but I get lost in classical and other planned musics. One of the most engrossing forms today is a well written and performed movie soundtrack especially one that is very well used in a good movie. My favorite composer of that genre is Klaus Badelt.
Imagine playing this whilst there is a lighting storm outside and itâs absolutely chucking it down
i did once. has to be one of the better decisions iâve made in life lol
This song was a major thing in an episode of Case Closed (Detective Conan) a man died as his house burnt down playing this song
@@okthen7096 Good on ya
How about actually playing it during a lighting storm? I have achieved mood perfection
@@Feykroah You are clearly the superior being
This song makes me wanna steal a piano in broad daylight, just to play it in some sanctuary looking place underground and maybe after that play it on a castle balcony in front of a window
Lol tf is that?
this is an eminence in shadow reference ToT
Life: Want to talk about your pain to people, Beethoven?
Beethoven: I'd rather make them feel it.
We do, Beethoven.
This. is. DEEP.
That's

SACRILEGIOUS. This is not a song it's a piece.
@@Dolores.Umbridge you should practice, stop reading InTrREsTiNG comments.
Iâve watched this video dozens of times and learned an Easy version of it⊠Iâm now learning the proper way and this is so helpful to create the visual in my mind. A truly beautiful and morose piece, Iâve always felt so connected with, even more so.
Eminence in shadow

Im here because of the Animeđ (It's my favorite Anime)
Takt: Destiny
Some people are ranking the movements but they aren't even pianists.
The first movement: medium
The second movement: difficult
The third movement: a mad mans game
Morning Hair Gaming finally someone who knows
@Suga Kookies too it's alright, just tell them what it actually is lol
Morning Hair Gaming Now that I think about it, that seems more accurate.
Yes this is also me hi
Morning Hair Gaming but I can play the 3rd movement and Iâm 11...Iâm serious...
Is it normal that I spend hours at night in the dark alone listening to this song and just thinking?
Holy moly what happened here? Guess a lot of people felt the same
yes yes, very normal
You are not alone bud
I donât know, if youâre thinking about suicide then itâs not normal
@@georgedove9178 I am not, just thinking about life, and the future.
No you should find some freinds
I cannot get through this song without cryingâŠthe sound just takes me away and is so powerfully emotional.
Lord Shadow also approves and wishes the best.
This song fits the mood of 2020 perfectly.
Mm-hm đ
It's too beautiful for 2020
@@beksabeksultanova4494 Not at all. :)
Not at all maybe winter wind 2020 is a complete disaster and so noisy not that emotional
It was rather a terrible year for me so yep true.
Excellent - at 52 I am starting to learn piano. I hope I am still around in the coming years to be able to play it. Fantastic Moonlight Sonata ...pretty spiritual to me.
Good luck with piano, hope you get really good
@@ohokay4663 so far so good...talk to me in5 yrs from now . Have a good one .
Don't ever give up
Me too, I started last year the age of 49. I'm loving it so far. My only regret is that I didn't start sooner.
@@darkhalo0868 keep it up. I gotta fantastic teacher and am doing well at grade 1. Nine more to go....then...diploma.
from this day on, i can say that i can play the whole 1st movement without any notes :)
THIS FEELS GOOD AS HELL
Beethoven was a legend.â€
As a piano/music maker, watching people play this is beautiful in all ways, but when you play it yourself, you actually experience the feelings and emotions that this piece holds, itâs ok to shed a tear playing this piece, because I did, and Iâll never forget it...Beethoven is one of the best composers out there, thank you Beethoven....we will never forget you â€ïžđą
That's beautiful :')
haha pen is
So true! I am always moved by it.
The colors on your fursona really need to be toned down
