Viewer request overhead keyboard tutorial of Debussy’s Arabesque No.1 divided into practice sections for fingering and playing 3 notes against 2. Musical examples are played at tempo then slowly. The tutorial is followed by my recording of the complete Arabesque. This video contains a spoken introduction only which is posted in the first uploaders comment box, otherwise there is intentionally no spoken commentary in the video for viewers whose first language is not English. »
Part 1 Background history, musical examples for those discovering Debussy’s music' Part 2 Intermediary level piano tutorial based around Clair de Lune which aims to answer viewer’s questions about general piano technique in relation to this piece. Part 3 A “copy-hands” tutorial for those needing fingering suggestions and/or those that don’t read music. In this video I play the slow outer sections which, joined together, can make a piece on their own. »
