BPK – How to Play Siren (Tori Amos) Piano/Keyboard


Hello. This is a tutorial for Siren by Tori Amos from the Great Expectations soundtrack. It can be a tough song to learn and to teach but everyone here has been so great with nice comments and ratings this year, so I made a video to teach Siren which was the most requested tutorial. I hope it is helpful! I have a video where I play Siren which may help hear how the song comes together: www.youtube.com July was a very productive month for me playing Tori cause I have a video now for almost every song on her albums. The last few will be coming this month (hopefully!). The featured video from July is an original called Her Clinquant Mirror: www.youtube.com It’s inspired by the mystical style of Stevie Nicks and tells a peculiar tale of a woman’s infatuation with a mirror she found, and by extension her own reflection. It somehow twists her, but she is not destroyed. I had fun thinking it through so I hope you enjoy it as well. Thanks to everyone for all the kindness here. Much love, -BPK ————————————————— A full list of songs here is now available at: blog.myspace.com

    Thank you! I really appreciate this. If it’s helpful at all, I can tell you that the tutorial I have which is best for people at the very entry level is the China tutorial. It’s a song that a lot of new pianists have told me was a nice transition into the instrument to get comfortable playing her. PS – I don’t know if your screen name comes from it but I read Memoirs of a Geisha when I was 19 and I loved it! :-)
