    it always gave me goosebumps just by touching those minor chords, it inspired me a lot to make gothic music.

    First one yay I'm glad u can make this kind of videos, I wanna ask you something particular. I'm Spanish native speaker but I speak English but sometimes I can't understand many things when you're explaining the video tutorial. Is there some way u can put subtitles in your video apart from de auto generated subtitles? I will appreciate it. Thanks, you're my favorite channel on UA-cam. 🥰

    Thank you so much for posting this! I’ve had an idea for one stuck in my mind for the longest time that I’ve toyed around with but could never turn it into a full piece until now! Do you have any advice for arpeggios in the left hand though?
    So far I’ve been doing something akin to the bass clef’s speed and spacing from Victor’s Piano solo, or “Beethoven’s silence”, but I’m not sure if there’s any routes to take that would also work well
    Thanks again! :)

  • @andrewgumede2897

    A music score would be great so it would sound exactly as you play it and also as an introduction to more ledger line as the piece ranges from the lowest and highest part of the piano 😊
