April 18, 200719 yr need your help guys, i wanna learn a classical song but i don't know which one :\ i tried canon in D except there way to many versions and i couldn't decide and i learned the first page of Fur Elisa, and i impressed myself with that then i turned the page and found scaled! i suck at scales they never work out right haha. so does anyone know any classical songs that will impress people because there is just tooooo many and i don't wanna go through em' all i'll be here for a lifetime ;) thanks:kiss:
April 18, 200719 yr Author oh god the only way i could EVER play a classical song would be if i was good at scales........ahhhh. does anyone know any exercises that will help you improve on scales :confused: also i just realised that i tend to use my thumb, index and and one in between your index and pinky fingers the most :\ great now i gotta really start using the rest more haha...aw
April 18, 200719 yr If you're looking for good classic songs, I'd suggest Moonlight Sonata, it's not too hard and it's really pretty! But if you want to play classical; really practise them scales! I'm sure you can find all over the internet simple scales for all keys. Just practise C Major a lot, since it's only white keys and you'll learn to use all your fingers.. which you'll really need :) Good Luck!
April 18, 200719 yr Bach is pretty simple as a good starter.... Maybe Menuet? Or if you are looking for a more romantice piece... The Venetian Boat Song (also known as Song without Words) by Mendelssohn is pretty easy and beautiful. Good luck!
April 18, 200719 yr The point of alot of Classical music was to highlight the virtuosity of the musicians playing it, so you're going to have to deal with those scales, like it or not. But they're just patterns. Start slow and build up your speed with them as you get more comfortable. WHen you've been doing them for ahile, you'll find yourself automatically using all your fingers. I only use the 3 you mentioned in the left hand...guess I need to work on the scales too,lol. Have a look at the 2nd movement of Mozart's Sonata in C Major. It's fairly simple. There are some scale passages, but the tempo is slow. Good luck.

April 21, 200719 yr for elise is pretty simple. i guess you already played it with you teacher. Something hard but amazing song is "In The Hall Of Mountain King" by Edvard Grieg. Too hard for me, but it kicks ass.
April 21, 200719 yr ^ Oh, do you have a really hard version of it? Because I have a simplified one and it's dead easy but still sounds pretty cool!
April 22, 200719 yr Author that song reminds me of mary had a little lamb for some reason haha. is there a harder version somewhere?
April 28, 200719 yr are you talking about In The Hall Of Mountain King? yeah my version is so hard to play. beginning is easy, but then...
May 3, 200719 yr Canon in D is nice, Für elise is nice But the nicest is; moonlight sonate :p can't play it myself ;)
