here's the sheet music. it's only the first page, but you can print it out, and the chords basically repeat throughout the whole song.
also, watch this video...it helps once you learn the chords from the sheet music: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y6amqIDbsMs
best answer please?
I am a violinist , I want to learn Piano?
Q. I am a violinist , I want to learn Piano, How much months need for a small presentation
for small lessons, i just need few hours, but big lessons, i need a week practice , this is my violin study style
A. Since you are a violinist, you already know to read musical notation. The next step is mapping the notes to the keys on the keyboard and you'll see how logically the keyboard is actually laid out. The keys follow a logical pattern that is repeated over the keyboard.
In my estimation, it'll take you about a week to get the hang of hitting the right key to play a note you read from a score. The rest is practice. Depending on your enthusiasm and determination, you should be able to play to a metronome in another two weeks for the "right-hand" (melody) part.
Chords take a little time but most modern electronic keyboards have an accompaniment feature that allows you to play chords with a maximum of three keys in combination. That means, if you need to play a C chord, you need to simply put the keyboard in accompaniment mode and hit the C key on the left-hand-side to produce the full chord. Minors and Sevenths can be accomplished with two fingers. Sharp Majors and Minors require three fingers. The manual tells you how.
A fairly good musician who can read music should be able to play simple pieces within a month.
I'm not a good musician, yet I was accompanying the Church choir within four months of buying an electronic keyboard. I still can't play the melody to a metronome but accompaniment with just chords and a beat is a breeze.
Modern electronic keyboards also have in-built lessons. Since you can read musical notation, if you use the in-built lessons and play only the melody, allowing the lessons to fill in the chords and beats, you can actually stage a presentation of around four pieces in a month, rehearsing not less than two hours a day.
All the best.
What is the Difference between Bach and Mozart's musical style?
Q. I'd like to know what people say about their musical styles. As in, Mozart's style is more playful that kinda thing. i just want it from someone more precise. If you know what i mean...
A. I don't really know what you mean, but I'll have a go at it anyways.
Alright, so the easiest way to answer is that Bach was Baroque and Mozart was Classical. However, I assume that isn't really the answer you're looking for.
Basically, there are a couple of key characteristics that you can listen for to try to identify or distinguish between one or the other.
Bach was known for counterpoint, or specifically the fugue. Virtually everything that he ever wrote (ever) uses counterpoint. Counterpoint is sort of like a "round", in that a single line of music will start and then a few seconds later the same line will start in a different voice. The main differences between a round and a fugue is that a round generally has only two voices while a fugue can have as many as four or even five. In addition, in a round the voices all start on the same pitch (note), while in a fugue the voices start on different pitches. Since I've explained that really poorly, you can watch a very good visual and aural portrayal of a fugue here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pVadl4ocX0M . Notice that each separate voice is in a different color.
In contrast, Mozart generally stayed away from counterpoint. His music generally comes in the form of simple melody and harmonic accompaniment (a melody and background chords). The example I chose for this is a piano concerto (piano and orchestra), so it's a little more complex than one of his many solo works for piano, but the melody/accompaniment technique is still very obvious: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rKZr3ExeXUc . This is in essentially the same format as the Bach example. You'll notice that the very beginning comes in with a simple repeated pattern that you can see mapped out on the bottom in purplish and orangeish (behold my wonderful sense of colors). This simple pattern, which you can hear in the lower strings, forms the harmonic accompaniment. When you see the brighter orange line on the top, which represents the violins, what you're looking at and hearing is the simple melody. When the piano comes in, the color map gets a little confusing, but it is still pretty easy to distinguish melody and accompaniment by looking at the player's hands (the left hand is playing the accompaniment while the right plays melody).
So there you go; a simple analysis on characteristic Bach music and characteristic Mozart music. If you're listening to a piece and it sounds like there are multiple voices playing counterpoint, you'll know that you're listening to Bach. If the piece instead contains a simple melody and some sort of repeating or simple melodic accompaniment, you'll know that you're probably hearing Mozart's work.
