Time To Say Goodbye — Falling Notes Piano Tutorial
7 people have learned this song
Watch "Time To Say Goodbye" by Sarah Brightman with Andrea Bocelli in falling notes style — like Synthesia. Color-coded notes fall onto the keyboard in real time. Practice left hand, right hand, or both. Key of G, 60 BPM.
This arrangement is a wonderful workout for balancing a singing melody in your right hand against a steady oompah bass pattern in your left — that means your left hand alternates between a low root note and a higher chord chunk, so focus early on keeping that pattern smooth and even at 60 BPM before adding the melody on top.
With sixteen chords in the key of G, you'll hit a few surprising shifts — watch especially for the move into C♯m and F♯m7, which pull your hand out of familiar G-major territory and require quick finger repositioning.
I'd suggest looping the climactic section hands-separately first, since that's where the chord changes stack up fastest and the dramatic dynamics tempt you to rush.
Use the sustain pedal generously but change it cleanly with each new chord; muddy pedaling is the number-one stumbling point I see with this piece.
Keep your tempo locked even when the emotion swells — restraint is what makes the big moments land.
This song will genuinely solidify your confidence moving between major, minor, and suspended chords under a lyrical melody, a skill you'll use in almost everything you play next.
