Btw I agree that Self taught piano means you get into habits. The only reason for being taught is to remove bad habits and so that you can find out what your doing wrong in your piece. I.e Like the vid where you played it wrongly. Good to here youve have improved now lets see a much nicer vid plox >.< Replace vid then makes sense or people be learning it wrong through bad internation on your behalf. :P which isnt to good if you could change it though with proper one then that would own.

Thought ur a was good and u were playing to fast. Keep up the good work though maybe if you listen to the actual piece more you will get the flow. And i think somwhere a long the line your ment to accent the notes I.e bar 8 the first note you accent and tail of on the 3rd Yeh doesnt sound right on the 2nd part well the 2nd phrase (Bar 21) (00:53) your pausing to long on the notes at the en dot the bar (b e c e) they should be the same length so its fluent instead your treating them as quavers not semi quavers and you do the same for each bar of that following section till b repeats again.

Beat 4 of measure 21 becomes B, middle C; beat 4 of measure 22 becomes B, A, etc. Just replace the 4th beat of each of those measures with two 8th notes: the first note of the measure and one note up if the arpeggio is about to repeat, or one note down if it is about to change.

For every note in the left hand you play two in the right. That's the hardest part of the song. Good luck and keep practicing. You'll get it after 30 hours of practice I bet. :smile: Thanks Alec.

I think we're just as capable of learning as adults than as children, but children seem to learn more easily because they spend more time on piano. Thanks Anqet!
