Teacher’s notes

This arrangement sits in Gb major, so your hands will live mostly on black keys — let that feel natural rather than awkward, because the black-key clusters actually give your fingers helpful landmarks.

At 88 BPM the tempo is gentle, but the real challenge is the sheer variety of chord shapes: you're moving through 22 different chords including sus voicings like Dbsus2 and Dbsus4, plus minor sevenths like C#m7 and Fm7.

Practice your left-hand chord transitions hands-separate first, especially where you jump between distant roots like B to Eb — map those leaps slowly until the distances feel memorized in your arm, not just your eyes.

Watch the sustained phrases in your right hand; use the sustain pedal to connect melodic notes but lift cleanly on each chord change to avoid mud.

Loop any section where a sus chord resolves, because nailing that timing is what makes the ballad breathe.

This is the piece that'll make stretched minor-seventh shapes feel like home under your fingers.
