*I have a lot of comments and pms asking for sheet music. Sorry guys but I don’t have any! As I think I mentioned in one of the videos, I play by ear, which means I listen to the music and play it on the piano. I think my version is pretty accurate still since I’ve been trained to do this sort of thing. Peace out =)* I had a few requests to do this piano tutorial. It’s my first one so I appreciate any feedback on how I could improve. I forgot to mention in the video that you can use the pedal, but remember to release it for every chord change. Thanks for watching! *** It took me 7 hours to make this tutorial and it’ll take me another 7 to put hands together. I will if I have time but I can’t guarantee anything. This was my first tutorial after-all. As a substitute, those of you who have problems putting hands together, count 4 beats to a bar for each hand and fit them together that way. If that made no sense, then sorry. Unfortunately, learning to play the piano involves learning some music theory as well. I wish you guys the best in learning to play the piano. Peace out. ^_^V ***
