6 Piano Pieces that are EASIER than they sound!

Okay, they're not EASY, but they're definitely easier than you think. Give them a try! Can't play any of it yet? Try flowkey! go.flowkey.com/sheetmusicboss

I definitely agree with this list. I think clair de lune shouldn't really be here since the middle part can be challenging and it can be very hard to make it sound beautiful. Same thing with the prelude in c major and moonlight sonata.

these "easy" pieces arent easy at all, sure just the reading itself isn't to difficult but its the expression and understanding thats required to play pieces like Clair de lune correctly, like the piece can be played by grade 5 but its classified as a grade 7 on AMEB PFL and grade 10 for the RCM level The melody requires proper technique and experience to be played flawlessly. edit: after reading sum od 50 replies and replying to a few i wanted to address a couple things, I'm 16 i love the piano with everything inside me and i wrote this comment like a month ago and I was about to have to perform something big so i was a little stressed and i saw clair de lune and went grr, honestly proper technique is needed for quite a few of these pieces like i said, but even if you don't have that the same message you want to bring across in your playing can always be brought as long as you put yourself into every piece you play. i aspire to one day be able to teach students music and i know from experience from teaching my own family how to play you learn that it isnt all grades and scales and when to lift up but most of all from trying to learn the piano or playing any new piece is that you have to play every single keystroke with passion, maybe that's the passion of a loved one or the pure passion to play this instrument in which we all share around the world but ether way to get the most out of what you play whether you're of grading "good enough" to play it or not just play with passion and continue to put yourself into your music until you cant anymore! love you guys your all great(even the guy that called me a nerd)

It is not only about playing the right notes, it’s about playing the music, the phrasing and how you express your emotions with your playing

As a professionnal pianist i just wanted to point out how smooth those transitions were

I've been a classical pianist for 6 years now in which I've taken professional piano lessons from three separate teachers and have attended one of Steinway & Sons' All-Steinway Schools at the Oklahoma City University and I can attest to some of these pieces being much easier to play than they at first seem, but definitely not all of these pieces are easy if you are to play their original arrangements all the way through from their beginnings to their ends. The middle-end of Fur Elise will be a bit difficult for beginner pianists, Moonlight Sonata on the other hand I would argue is harder to play than it sounds (at least in the beginning), good luck if you go into it with the expectation that it will be easy, especially if you haven't had much experience with playing classical music; one movement in particular will be excruciatingly difficult for even well-experienced pianists. As for Clair De Lune, it should not even be in this video as an easy piece, the beginning is ridiculously easy, but oh my does the left hand get hard throughout the middle-end of the piece, not to mention the massive chords you have to play that can be difficult to memorize and transition between quickly, more so if you don't know what fingers to use for the most efficient transitions and comfortability. Clair De Lune is by far the most technical and physically difficult piece in this video to perform (if you do not include Moonlight Sonata's 3rd Movement). For me personally, it was not a fun experience attempting to learn and memorize the left hand when I first wanted to learn the piece. I love you SMB, but you're misleading some pianists with the pieces you reference in this video.

I played Clair de lune recently at my music school for our "concert" (it was just the students who played since its the end of spring). It was my first time playing in front of a crowd and i was so goddamn nervous. But i did it and in the end i am glad i didn´t chicken out. To anyone reading this: keep going, don´t give up and most importantly, be proud of your accomplishments.

1)Prelude No.1 : 0:0 - 0:20 ✔ 2)Für elise : 0:20 - 0:45 ✔ 3)Piano Sonata in C major : 0:45 - 1:02 4)Canon in D major : 1:03 - 1:21 5)Moonlight Sonata : 1:23 - 1:48 6) Clair de lune 1:48 - 2:36

Most of these only have an easy beginning, pieces like Für Elise, the Moonlight Sonata, Facile, and especially clair de lune can be very tough to play well. I have been playing the piano for some 8 years, and you best beleave it took me a while to get Clair de Lune ready for concert.

I can personally attest that Prelude in C Major is a GREAT place to start for beginners just starting out. It’s such a simple piece, yet sounds really good.

I agree with this list, except Clair de lune. The beginning is very easy, but it gets much harder, especially if you want to play it properly and legato. The rhythm is very unusual, and the notes can be hard to memorise.

I have played basically every piece on this list, and I can definetly say that while these pieces arent nessesarily hard (atleast in the beginning section), a newer pianist (like under 2 years) would most likely still find most of these pieces pretty challenging. However, if you have been playing for over two years than this is a pretty good list of songs.

mozarts k545 could be challenging for begginers, with the obnoxious scales, development and key change. all otherwise it’s pretty simple and one of the more approachable pieces mozart made in his era

Clair de lune is not easy. The beginning is, but my god the middle section is brutal. By only playing the beginning section it makes Clair de lune sound so much easier than it actually is

Man those are Smoooth transitions. You barely notice them. nice job 👍

0:03 J.S. Bach - Prelude No. 1 in C Major (From the Well-Temered Clavier) 0:20 L.V. Beethoven - Für Elise in A Minor 0:46 W.A. Mozart - Piano Sonata No. 16 K. 545, Movement 1 in C Major 1:02 J. Pachelbel - Canon in D Major 1:24 L.V. Beethoven - Moonlight Sonata, Piano Sonata No. 14 in C# Minor 1:48 C. Debussy - Clair De Lune No. 3 in B Major (from Suite Bergamasque)

This video tells us how much expression and dynamics are important. It reminds me that why we write “P.f.” on the score when we need that instrument.

The entertainer was the first song I learnt, I think it's a really easy and fun song to play, it certainly lives up to its name.
