I finally sat down and got through the first 10-15 measures of this piece. I can get the theme down at least in the right hand, but I would say that i’m still a beginner-intermediate level.. I started picking up guitar and violin more, but I still like piano, especially this piece, so 15 measures in 2 hours doesn’t seem so bad for me..
I’m a piano newb. I’ve been doing it for a short month or so. So far I’ve learned a few songs like fur elise and some bach stuff, but nothing anywhere near the level of fantasie impromptu. However, I just love this song. It sounds almost unbelievable that it is coming from just one person on one instrument. I’m a highly self-motivated person so this is not just going to be a short stint on piano, and I hope that within a few years I can play this song and hopefully do it justice.
Honestly, I’m not anywhere near skilled enough to play this piece well, but I’m big on long-shot goals. I practiced the hands invidually for the first section and got to a point where I can at least play them together, fairly slowly. I find it to be a very gratifying tactile playing experience, and it inspires me to play more often than I otherwise might. Also, I listen to the piece at least weekly to keep the carrot at the end of the stick.
When playing this piece, you should play both hand separately very slow – then very fast. When you play separate play very fast and when you play together play very slow.(Before the next step you should get it memorized because it is hard read the music and play fast) Then once you can do that, up the tempo little by little. Once you start getting pretty fast, don’t worry about the exact rhythm, just make sure to play the right hand evenly, loud, and fast. And the right hand not so even but a little softer than the right hand. If you do that you will be able to hear the melody. If you practice well it shouldn’t take too long for you to learn how to play. Hope this helps!
okay.. basically I’ve started trying to learn fantasie impromptu
but I’m finding it incredibly hard to play both hands together, I can play other things with the right hand doing 4 beats and the left doing 3 but I’m still stuck lol.
Can anyone suggest any methods to learn it/tips/helpful stuff?
