Part 2 of the Fur Elise tutorial. The part we're going to be learning today sounds like
this.And it will repeat from there. Okay but I'm just going to show you the part before
it repeats and you can just repeat it on your own. So you've just come out of the first
part and you're going to start by playing this B and you're going to play white notes
straight up B C D E. Okay? Now while you're doing that, once you hit that E with your
right hand, B C D E now as soon as you hit that E you're going to play a C with your
left hand and you're basically rolling up C G an C. And this pattern you're going to
see - something like this- in a couple of other spots so hopefully you'll remember this
shape sort of. C G and C. So here's that little first part.Okay? That's pretty straight forward.
Then you're going to come down here with your right thumb and play a G and you're going
to jump up to an F - not a whole octave, just to this F. So you've got like this... G F
E D. So what you really should see here is this G and then this group of three that starts
with this F, because what's going to happen is for the next part it's going to be that
shape shifted down. So for three in a row, if you can just see this shape you'll get
a lot futher. So G F E D alright? So lets do a really quick review. G C now a G with
my right hand, F up here and walk down. Now when I hit this D with my right hand, I'm
going to play octave Gs so this G down here with my left hand, up an octave and I'm going
to cross my finger over and play a B. Okay, that's a little bit tricky. Okay, so we've
got C G C G in my right hand. F walk down, when I hit this D I'm playing Gs, cross over.
And then your right hand plays an F E D C so it's that shape again - F E D C when I
play this C with my right hand my left hand is going to play like this A kinda outline
an A minor chord so we;ve got A E and A. Okay? And then you're going to jump down here with
your right hand and continue that pattern a little bit more. You're going to play an
E and then come up to a D. E D C B alright? And once you hit this B, your left hand is
going to play to play a low E and we're going to talk about what happens after that right
after we review because something that is a little bit different happens there. So,
let's do a quick review. B C D E as soon as I hit this E I'm going to play C in my left
hand G C, come down here grab a G up to the F, walk down to Gs octaves jumping here, cross
over, F E D as soon as I hit this C I do an A minor. E D C B. Now once I hit this B I'm
going to play this. So let's talk about what is going on there. I play it slightly different
from the way it's written in the music, by the way if you aren't away you can download
the music it's in the link below - totally free. So basically the music is written to
have your left hand play E and then E an octave higher and then E an octave higher all with
your left hand - like that. And then you would double here. But I actually think it's easier
to play this E twice with your right thumb instead of moving so much - I try to minimize
moving. So you've got E - I wanna show you my way, if you want to do it the way it's
written, go ahead - but you've got E an octave higher E in your left hand. Then your right
hand is going to play an E an octave higher twice. So watch: one one two and then up to
this E with your right hand - so just the first one two three four five notes are like
this. Okay? Now, after you do that, you're going to bring your left hand over and sort
of put it over where your right hand was and double up with the left right, you know low
E high E and so it's like this. By having your left hand switch over and come in right
on top of that, you can get kind of this cool stuttery pattern. Okay? And as soon as your
left hand comes over and plays that E E, your right hand is already getting ready to play
this E after your left thumb plays that high E. So you've got this low E high E with your
left thumb, and your right hand is going to come right on top, play that E and the E above.
So watch, ready? Low E - I'll do it really slow. Okay so that's that little run. You
practice slow and you get fast. I also recommend a little bit of the right sustain pedal as
your moving through that to help disguise any little weirdnesses. Okay so as soon as
you get done with that little pattern, you're going to move into this part that sounds like
this. It's sort of like a way to get you back into sort of into the groove. So you've got
those Es and your left hand is going to immediately pick up this D shape and alternate between
D sharp and E. And your right hand is going to take over and do the same thing. D sharp
to E, left hand again and then your right hand is going to take over. Okay? So let me
show you really slow. Left hand, right hand, left hand, right hand. And then you repeat
from there, so you'll see that you basically go right back in to a part that should look
pretty darn familiar if you've studied the first video in this tutorial. So if this is
confusing, I recommend starting with the first one and making sure you get that part down
because we're recycling a part. But anyway, this D sharp to E, D sharp to E, D sharp to
E and then right hand takes over. And it does that Fur Elise pattern that you should probably
know by now, and as soon as you hit this you're going to start that pattern with the left
hand - just like in the first video. And here's the one little difference. Now in the first
video you would repeat that pattern again but in this section you're going to repeat
the part that I just taught you. You see how I'm going from instead of going back into another one of these like you do in the
first section - that's how you repeat the first section - the second section has a slightly
different repeat. So I'm going to show you a really quick review of what we just learned
and then you're going to have to go practice. So you've got this part. F cross over. Es.
Left hand right hand left hand right hand. Sort of a short repeat section here. Yeah
and so the only other thing you need to know there is that the very end, the end of the
section, you're going to sort of like leave it hanging. So you've just done this... so
you hear how I'm just sort of leaving it hanging there, that's because the next part, the next
part that we're learning jumps out of there, okay? So that's the tutorial. Take your time
and go slow. It take a little bit of time to get used to this stuff. I really hope this
helped you. Don't forget to like, comment, and subscribe and I'll see you later for tutorial
number three.
