Has anyone ever learnded or tried to learn Avril 14th? I'm trying to learn from the midi I have, but some of chords in the section that starts around 1 min 25 would appear to be physically impossible to play... Namely the 6th chord in this sequence: a C being the highest note, then, not the next octave down but the one after that, an A sharp (so far alright) and even lower a D sharp (not possible). Try it penists, it is not for the hand of man. What do I do? Is Aphex a piany playin frawd? Or do he gots another arm?

You do need a damned big handspan... I can't play but I can read sheet music and pick out individual chords etc. and I could (just) reach it, took a few attempts mind without hitting the notes on the inside of each of the two extremities. I have and large hand span too. Methinks he invested in a Yamaha Disklavier or something similair though...

I thanks you and I see your name speaks the truth of you, although your search was almost as entirely fruitless as mine and contained almost exactly the same words, hence I did not need your ploppy help at all. Good day.
All I want to know is if anyone has succesfully played it, and if they have how they got around the long finger requirement. I'm literrally inches from playing it, but my little finger is starting to ache and I feel it may start to turn black soon.

Have you considered using a 1/2 or 3/4 sized keyed keyboard/piano?

I know the music to avril 14th and kesson daslef - they're not interesting enough to play on the piano - maybe on a cheap casio keyboard from 1988.

there was an articale on warprecords several months ago, about how all the piano pieces on drukqs, where played with an automated piano... hooked up to his sequencer.... so... that probably answers everything.
(but that chord is possible... just for people with freakishly large hands...)

Didn't anyone notice what I said?
"Methinks he invested in a Yamaha Disklavier or something similair though..."
(for those of you not in the know a Yamaha Disklavier is a midi controlled piano!)

I thank thee helpful foke, and Mr Recycle, honestly, thank you but I don't want the midi of the track that is all taken care of good day yes?
It's propper annoying though, I'll have to move it up an octave and it sounds a bit weak... its a shame for the first 4 chords sounds so lovely on a reverbed up pyano.

apart from the rather large handspan required to play this track properly, this track is also not the easiest in terms of left/right syncopation. not impossible but it sounds a lot easier than it really is.

no i dont find it that easy sounding how about kesson dalef, that's the one i wanted to ask about, sorry
i thought that'd be played live, due to the easy left hand
so why do i think there's a metronome running along with avril 14th, up to the breaks exactly, mind you, is that the piano hammers (you hear everything really good (nice that is)) or the cyborg arms or a sample of a metronome (like the wsss over the guitar in that prodigy song their law, without the following guitar: in both cases not needed)?

I've tried to play a few of the drukqs tracks on piano, but it usually ends up sounding very thin and disjointed. Then again, I suck at piano.

I could more or less play Avril 14th and Kesson Daslef. I downloaded the sheet music and gave it a whirl. It's not impossible but it's certainly a tricky situation. Try moving your fingers further up the keys. That helps me with a long stretch. I also have big hands so I'm at an advantage there.

I'm pretty sure almost nobody could play that chord as it is on the midi... but then again... Anyway I'm definetly not capable of it myself.

I used the JPG files of the scores that were floating about a while ago and plugged them into Sibelius - a) to neaten them up a bit, and b) to check that they sounded right.
I've played the first dozen bars of Avril 14th, but never got as far as the finger-stretching bit (I suck on the piano).
