EXCITING ANNOUNCEMENT: This will change the way we think of Für Elise forever. Professor and world-touring pianist Roberta Rust, who has the most sensitive touch and musicality, performed this standard as part of the live streamed recital at Jane's home on April 11, 2021.

Thank you for uploading this, its hard to find someone making the "hard part" in slow motion
You’re welcome. Thanks for writing.
I've seen a ton of youtube video tutorials on classical piano pieces and yours is by far the best. Just a whole different level in terms of demonstration, speed, and timing to allow those myself included to learn it at a slower pace than those who pick it up fast.Thank you.
Thank you, DR. appreciate your positive feedback!
Dear Jane, Thanks for the tutorial . I just started to learn this piece again and managed to learn the whole piece from your tutorial. Thanks for your kindness and effort to show us how to play the piano.
That’s great, Aimi ! Am happy for you 😊
Thank you very much Jane, you're my beloved teacher!
You're welcome, Brhôntö. Thanks for your sweet message :)
Super, Jane! Thank you very much!
Dear Jane. I watch many of your tutorials repeatedly while learning and practicing a song. You are a great pianist. It surprises me the number of songs you play with such a high level of mastership. Thank you. Im from Cuba and I live in the US
Thanks for your kind words, J. Glad you made it from Cuba to the U.S. Best wishes.
Beautiful tutorial, thanks a lot, Fur Elise will live forever in the hearts of people
Thank you, Somini. It certainly is popular 😊
Jane, I have said this multiple times, and yes I didn't forget I will be posting my version of Solfeggio learned off of your videos. Yes I was taught that song a long time ago. But your unconventional concrete lessons are very easy to understand and fairly well put together.
so, I hope you keep the motivation to keep these coming! they are very useful for even the intermediate level players. :3 keep it up!
Thanks P, look forward to hearing you play ! But no pressure, ever :)
ohhh Jane no te lo he agradecido antes pero me conmueve tanto. y me motiva en la lucha de aprender a tocar el piano siendo un adulto, respondiste a la de claro de luna y me instruyes en mi camino, me tienes con todo el hype, como quisiera que fueses mi maestro y vivieras en el salvador. gracias de nuevo Maestro
this is gold !!! thanks
Dear teacher Jane! Wonderful. Thank you very much! I am from Argentina!
Dear Mirta, thanks for writing. Greetings to you in Argentina!
Great! I’m learning this right now. Thank you for breaking it down 👍
My pleasure! Thanks for using my tutorial
It's great with the score, thank you!
Glad to help. Thanks for writing.
Here is another great work, Jane! I will learn this song from your tutorial once I got time maybe in a year time from today. Don't know why but I think the way you perform I found it easy to learn and so nice to hear.
Yes, Fur Elise is a popular standard for beginners. You can definitely learn this well. Enjoy.
@@janepianotutorials Thank you for your supportive message!
You are very bat 👹👹👹👹👹

You just helped me finishing learn the piece for a long 6 months trying it.
Congratulations on learning Für Elise. Good job!
Hoje vendo esse tutorial logo me inspirei novamente para estudar essa obra que já tinha deixado de lado .Agora vou continuar meus estudos . Muito grata por tão nobre vídeo . 🙏❤️🌹
Happy to read your positive comment. Good luck finishing the piece! And thanks for writing ❤️
Great! Thank you so much!!! 👍👍
You're very welcome!!!
Now practicing ;) Thanks for this Jane, the hard part was after the easy part, which we usually hear.
You're welcome, Rewin. Good luck finishing the piece!
Gracias fue de Gran Ayuda el tutorial, algunas partes no sabía cómo se tenía que leer la Partitura. Me quedo claro 🎵🎵🎶🎵👏👏👏👍👍DE NUEVO GRACIAS !!!
That’s wonderful. I made easy sight reading lessons for you 🤗
I wanted to express my gratitude to Ms. Jane for sharing this piano tutorial with Notation. This is one of my favorite tones.
It has been extremely useful to me.
Please do the same with some of your most popular tones.
You're very welcome! Because I started this project 14 years ago, the most liked pieces were done long ago with obsolete software and hardware. Adding scores to these poorer quality videos is unsatisfactory. I would need to redo them completely. Which pieces did you have in mind? Make me a list? Please double check my website first, because I have remade a few.
Thank you! Awesome!
You're welcome! Thank you!
A melhor AULA. Gratidão!!

Wow, good learning on your part! Happy for you ☺️
thank you miss Jane.
you're welcome, ethan
Tysm! This helped a lot! I was trying to find a work sheet on Google but it was too hard. Ty again!
Work sheet? If you mean the sheet music, it is on IMSLP, the best site for free classical downloads
k thx.
thanks for slowly interpretation about fur elise
Glad to help, thanks for writing
Yes I started playing this and I loved it. Looking forward to learn the complete version.
That’s great, have fun practicing!
Thanks
You’re welcome
So nice
Thank you!

You're welcome
Dear Jane, I watched the video of you teaching the fur Elise in slow motion, which is great quality to help learners like me to learn how to play the favourite sound tracks. However, I just want to ask a question, there are some part of the track why on the same notes, you change your fingers to press on them? or even using fingers on the left hand under the right hands? Is there any purposes of it? I watched other play and they do the same thing, I have no idea or answer to this why???? (Silly me????? I found it confused and funny however I am curious and serious want to know.) Please can you explain to further my understanding and confusing? Thanks.
Dear Nguyen Mai, your question is not at all silly. The answer would be clear if one were following the score (sheet music). It tells us which hand to use. You can download a free copy on IMSLP. The hand positions enable better continuity and does make it more fun to watch. Hope you will study my sight-reading lessons. Then practice reading at least 5 minutes a day, that’s the only way to get better at it.
Jane what is the technique to be able to play any classic?
The first part of this piece doesn’t require much technique. You can just listen, observe, then imitate. To learn classical piano seriously, start with my sight-reading lessons, practice one set of scales each week, and practice pieces that you like.
That ka for sharing this tutorial, it is very helpful. Stay safe.
Thanks for sharing this tutorial, it is very helpful. Stay safe.
You’re welcome. Stay safe too :)
Can you explain a little about 4:10, is that a phantasy or is that the meaning of the symbol in the score? (the 8-like symbol laying on its side)
staaaajn That symbol is called a “turn”. It is one of the common music ornaments. See my sight reading lesson on ornaments?
@@janepianotutorials Thank you for your reply! I'll have a look at it. Thanks for all your tutorials.
Wow. When I was a kid I tried to learn how to play this piece by ear, withiut any sheet or teacher, and I just realized I’ve nailed it. I always wondered if I was playing the right keys, and I was. Although only the right hand, I never figured the left tho. But not bad for a kid 😂
Wow Carina, that means you have a good ear!
nice
Cool.
thanks
Thank you so much! You are a life saver. Extremely needed this!
Glad it helped! Good luck finishing the piece.
I am working on this
I was really intimidated by the level 4 pieces on your website (haven't learned a new song in years), and felt disheartened. But seeing that this song, a song I know very well, being designated a level 5 has filled me with the self-confidence to try and make an effort to get back to it. Not to ask how the sausage gets made, but what do these levels mean?
Levels are less meaningful for adult learners. Many of my tutorial users have jumped right into advanced pieces with success (they don't read music, they imitate my finger movement and memorize). When young students take private lessons, each year they are assigned pieces, 1st yr level 1, 2nd yr level 2, and so on. My levels are estimates. You can experiment this way: choose a line of the piece that looks difficult to you and just practice that line (15 minutes a day for a week?) If you can learn it without too much frustration, that means you can learn the entire piece. Do you read music? That is the purpose of my project.
Are you guys listening out there?
Jane has asked us all for a $1 contribution to help a young penniless young man to buy a digital piano to help him developing his extraordinary skills so he does not have to pay rents to work on classical works he treasures.
We all know what we all ow to Jane’s daily dedication for making tutorials for tastes and all levels of piano music.
The figures can’t lie : 112 656 subscribers 74 093 753 views… That tells a lot. Doesn’t it?
Dozens of us have requested tutorials from Jane and where very pleased when she duly delivered them.
Many have expressed their thanks. Meaning many of us owe much much more than $1 worth of gratitude to Jane.
Any objection?
So please guys, now is the time to show your gratitude to Jane. The money is not going to fill Jane’s wallet. Instead, it will help a very deserving young man to perfect his skills the same way many of you are lucky enough to do with the piano you owe.
No act generosity there. This is will only show your gratitude to Jane.

Many thanks in advance.
Schlomoh,I really am take aback at your level of interest in me,I really don't know ejat to say to thank you.this is so sweet and so kind.even if this thing doesn't work out like planned I still know that there are those like you and jane,who are so passionate about supporting younger musicians and that gives me a lot of hope.I thank you sincerely and wish you nothing but the best.if this works out my thanks will be in trying my best to give people something so special musically it can give them a little glimpse of happiness for a moment.
Dear Sean... You already did give us more than something special... That is why we think you more than deserve our attention. I hope this will eventually work out. You just earned it by your hard work.
Can stop preaching. Jane is in disbelief. Had no idea the people she
helps daily and those who thank her profusely would be so selfish. They
expect everything handed to them for free ? Ha ha, even had Rach 3 on
the agenda, played by an award winning pianist who is visiting this
month. Now Jane is thinking of PULLING HER CHANNEL completely, not just
strike.

Thanks for sharing this. Really helpful.
Would love to have a tutorial on Valse De Fantastica - FFXV
You're welcome. For requests, must send pdf of sheetmusic (no links!). Please follow request instructions on my website :)
Jane u got it
Can you upload sheet music to this? I would love to learn to read it as well.
Make sure you Google IMSLP, the best site for free classical scores!
🙏
welcome :)
tutorial eccellente
Thank you!
Would you please make a tutorial on Bach Inventions Allegro Tranquillo? Your tutorial is very helpful for my 6 year old son who is still struggling to read scores but like to learn advance pieces.
Bach Invention 13? Did that one. Please make use of the search box on my website (not YT).
Jane Awesome ! Found it. You even have Mozart Twinkle Twinkle Little Star. Very helpful for my son’s practice. Thank you so much!
I want to say to you - Thank you.
You’re very welcome ☺️
Do we need to use the pedal through out the piece? sorry if I sound silly!
Great video as usual! :)
On the contrary, that is an important question! Yes, applying the sustain pedal makes the sound more pleasing. Experiment holding different time lengths. Holding the pedal too long causes "muddiness", that would sound annoying. Under-pedaling is preferable to over-pedaling. Key is to listen. Some editors include pedaling notation ("P" for pedal) under the bass staff. Check imslp.org. Go down the list of editions (use preview) and choose ones with pedal markings.
Jane Thank you so much for answering! :)
i was thinking about that too!
I wish you add the score to all your classical tutorials:)))))
testing. replies not showing. this one did. I replied whether you would try to do one for us. I can send you the video file. Might be a fun experiment :)
朋友专业饭真棒满赞❤️周未快乐❤️
Thank you. Glad you are happy 😊
Je trouve cela très pédagogique bravo
Thanks for your positive feedback :)
What does the green bar indicate at 1:16?
The 1st ending was being played… repeat… then continue to the 2nd ending, also indicated with a green bar.
@@janepianotutorials ah ok, thanks. So you always play each part twice?
@@yannik3229 there are many kinds of repeats. main purpose was to save paper and ink (in the old days). If you go through my sight reading lessons then continue to the Czerny Op. 599 100 exercises, you'll cover all the basics.
@@janepianotutorials thanks for replying always so fast :) I will check them out.
Hi Jane
I hope you are doing well.
Have you ever heard Melissa from Raúl di Blasio?
It's a sweet and nice piece.
Could you make a tutorial about that song?
Hi Artur, am well, thank you. Unfamiliar with that piece. Please see request instructions on my website.
@@janepianotutorials Done!
Thanks un advance! 😄
Is this tutorial for anyone who cant read music sheet?
Imitation certainly works, but then you learn just this one piece. Try the first few notes by imitating my fingers and you will convince yourself that it works. However, to seriously learn piano and to become independent, we must learn to read music. I made sight-reading lessons for you. Study those, then it would be easier to follow my tutorials.

Thank you very much. Could you also play Maidens Prayer please?
Did Maiden's Prayer. Use the search box on my website?
Very nice 👍🏼 It’s just kind of hard to see what keys you’re pressing on
Hint: look at my fingers, not under them :) Play what my fingers play, try a few notes and you’ll see it works. Have fun!
"Für Elise" was actually published some 40 years after Beethoven's death. It's popularity stems from the fact that it's an easy piece and parents are delighted to have their children play Beethoven in front of their friends... :)))
As easy as it is technically that piece can be butchered if played without highlighting its different contrasting parts and its various nuances especially in the middle part.
As of its popularity, I know many composers were upset by the fact people showed excessive interest to works they considered less worth popularity that others...
Beethoven was annoyed at the success of the “Moonlight” sonata, which he considered less good than others. Comparing it with the piano sonata No. 24 in F sharp major he had just completed, he said to his friend Czerny: "We are still talking about the sonata in C sharp minor, but I did much better, for instance the sonata in F sharp major is really something else.
Sorry for elaborating so much on that topic :)))
Dear Schlomoh, thank you for teaching all of us! Please always feel free to "elaborate". I want viewers to know how grateful I am to you. Knowledgeable, kind, and wise, your interesting email has been educating me for years !
Jane...You make me blush... thank you sooo much !
Yu are a good piano ist
thanks, you are kind
the score link does not work??
Bookmark IMSLP. That is the best site for free classical scores. You’ll find it there.
@@janepianotutorials thanks
this will help for my gcse !!
Tienes Claro de Luna?
Did the Moonlight. Use the search box on my website?
I wish you had recorded this on a cheap Casio piano where the keys would light up when you play it.
No need for that. Why? Method is imitation. Watch my fingers and imitate. Try the first few notes? Ideally, follow the sheetmusic.
Hello! Can anyone tell me why in measure number 7 (and 21 and 58, and 102) of my edition (G. Henle Verlag (and here too : ua-cam.com/video/noAU3qDS1dA/v-deo.html)) it is a "D" that is written and not an "E" to the melody ( right hand) ? Who is right?
Beethoven might have not drawn the note clearly in his manuscript, so editors had to make a guess whether the note was in a space or on a line. There is no right or wrong, play the note that sounds better to you? Chopin editions vary the most! His manuscripts must be difficult to decipher...
@@janepianotutorials
Hello! And thanks to you for your quick and probably discerning and judicious answer! Thank you also for this excellent tutorial! (I will probably "continue" to play the "D" instead of an "E" because I like a little more this relative "variation". ;) )
You're welcome! imslp has some original manuscripts. they are fascinating. I found many impossible to read!
@@janepianotutorials Thank you very much for the information! After some research I discovered that the first edition of "Für Elise" (the "theme" was with an "E") dates from 40 years after the death of Beethoven and would have been made from a manuscript today faded away.
That's interesting. Thanks for the research!
Thank you very much teacher, you helped me a lot.
You’re very welcome. At my livestream tomorrow @ 4p EST, pianist Roberta Rust included Für Elise in her program. Am sure it’ll be the best performance of the piece ever. Hope you get to watch it live. It’ll still be online afterwards.
You’re the best teacher ever👍👍👍
You’re too kind, thank you!
If you think song is hard by anu lesson in yputube full version you think this is also hard but this is easiest you can find i am new subscriber i have a channel someone reaquested to read fur elise full version so this helped
Thanks for writing 😊
@@janepianotutorials youre welcome
interesting how you alternated hands on the D# E D# E D# E D# E
Beethoven wrote it that way. Please look at my unconventional and easy and simple and logical sight-reading lessons. You will be able to follow the score in no time :)
@@janepianotutorials Even more interesting., just read Fur Elise was discovered in the personal papers of a baroness, unpublished. This was after her death, decades after Beethoven's death.
The mystery deepens! Your latest comment led me to check Wikipedia:
The score was not published until 1867, 40 years after the composer's death in 1827. The discoverer of the piece, Ludwig Nohl, affirmed that the original autographed manuscript, now lost, was dated 27 April 1810. The music was published as part of Nohl's Neue Briefe Beethovens (New letters by Beethoven) on pages 28 to 33, printed in Stuttgart by J. G. Cotta.
The version of "Für Elise" heard today is an earlier version that was transcribed by Ludwig Nohl. There is a later version, with drastic changes to the accompaniment which was transcribed from a later manuscript by the Beethoven scholar Barry Cooper. The most notable difference is in the first theme, the left-hand arpeggios are delayed by a 16th note. There are a few extra bars in the transitional section into the B section; and finally, the rising A minor arpeggio figure is moved later into the piece. The tempo marking Poco moto is believed to have been on the manuscript that Ludwig Nohl transcribed (now lost). The later version includes the marking Molto grazioso. It is believed that Beethoven intended to add the piece to a cycle of bagatelles.
The pianist and musicologist Luca Chiantore [es] argued in his thesis and his 2010 book Beethoven al piano (new Italian edition: Beethoven al pianoforte, 2014) that Beethoven might not have been the person who gave the piece the form that we know today. Chiantore suggested that the original signed manuscript, upon which Ludwig Nohl claimed to base his transcription, may never have existed. On the other hand, Barry Cooper wrote, in a 1984 essay in The Musical Times, that one of two surviving sketches closely resembles the published version.
