[eyeRcoolguy]

Are you a wizard?

[VexylMusic]

Why does it look so simple?!

[Johnburton10]

Oh Please Mr. Rudess! Post That Sheet Music!!! Y have to play that :l

[Niekpas1]

@Johnburton10

The sheet music is available at jroc.us

[Johnburton10]

@Niekpas1 But I have to pay? Because I can't!

[Niekpas1]

@Johnburton10

Yes you do :P

[Johnburton10]

@Niekpas1 Time to use my ears, I think...

[Niekpas1]

If you google "count of tuscany sheet music zolhof" it's also available for free (very first link).

[ajikanokaze]

my favourite part!!!!

[jikarpert]

thumbs up if you press the thumbs up when you press the thumbs up

[petrucci15]

this is my favourite keyboard part in any dream theater song i think :)

[PreyingMantisMan]

man, this part is freaking hard.... I gave up and sequenced the left hand :P

[Ez3llBata]

I bet that he's also taking the camera with his hands.

EPIC. KEYBOARD. EVER.

[danix24891]

you call it "relax" , we call it "nightmare"

[Mattayl101]

This is just practice for you isn't it.

[MrRenatinhoReis]

Puta que pariu ainda bem que eu sou guitarrista kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk

[someoneforhim]

Too Many 16th notes!!!! AHHHHH!!!!!!

[KornSOAD]

Best fucking part of the song. It gives me goosebumps damn it! :D

[jerosmith1983]

This was the best DT song I've heard in years. I'm not saying I don't like the stuff you've done, this was musically the most adventurous thing you guys have done since Octavarium (the song). I'm excited about the new album, I really like everything I've heard. The snippets piss me off and make me feel like an addict. September 13 is an eternity away. Damn those snippets. Damn them.

[casxadw]

for good luck in the next show- break your hand

[exferd]

one of my favourite

[Zekemis]

so sketch



[DeathBringer769]

This lead sound is indeed, quite awesome.

[aafjellstromofficial]

Amazing how a lead sound can be so beautiful.

[raff2112]

AHAHAHHA THE ENDING FUCIN AWSOME WIZARD FTW

[KrixPrix]

Could i read "RELAX" on you keyboardscreen? Oh Jordan you're killing me :D



[edavidmartinez]

And that's why they call him The Wizard!

[ErikJonssonMusic]

Can someone explain how he get that tone, and the slide thingy before the notes? :)

[MrRVKeys]

@ErikJonssonMusic put the portumento on about 6 on the all the oscillators

[Chikimefuiki]

he just busts an ultimate finger nut there at the end

[babalrudess]

Jordan é um musico de outro planeta!!!!



[babalrudess]

Jordan é um musico de outro planeta!!!!

[brainac0cult]

i love you jordan :D

[MrMyungFan]

Whoa, that's WAYYYY harder than I thought (And I'm not talking about the end where he went crazy)

[krocolatoz]

ini jari apa gak keselip apa ya cc:@@andreyudha86

[DuffanyHero2]

If I had just one quarter of your skill, my life would be complete

[Jongeruz]

Jordan doesn't get the music ready, the music gets ready for Jordan.

[jpaulom]

he reads it like a book!!!! nice

[VexylMusic]

@Mark88Bravi For me, G#m.

[KrixPrix]

@JCRUDESS

Do your piano sheets on that screen automaticly scroll while playing?

Best greetings from Germany :)

[cpuser37]

THIS is my favorite part of the song!!!

[sebisman2]

I LOVE THAT PATTERN

[Firedblood]

The keyboard sounds on this album are just amazing.

[AnAZNK1d]

how can 1 person make something sound sooo amazing?

genious 

[xectx18]

At first I didn't understand who was playing so I thought: wow, that keyboardist is very very god...

...then I saw Jordan, so I understood ahah

[MaXMoNeYStAcKs]

man, rudess definitely gives dream theater that "magic" touch, one of a kind

[begus00]

God! How can this man can be true?

[Bigboy4lyf12]

Jordan you are a true beast! Good Luck in the studio for when you guys start the next album man! Dream Theater is the greatest!

[Minibowen]

this is better than porn! Jordan, You are Amazing<3

[sk84uhlivin1]

I wish you all would've played this at Nissan. :(

[SneakehNub]

If Petrucci was really Jesus he would be playing this on guitar too.

[Bigboy4lyf12]

@SneakehNub he probably could!

[ZMekaniK]

damn :|

[Slashe50]

Is this a split with two mono leads?

[MrLosfuegos]

Jordan, you're my favorite bald man (after my father).

and coming from me it's quite a compliment!

:)

[monkeycow4325]

Jordan, you are amazing, man. I can't believe what I just saw, absolutely amazing.

[Manny1222]

It's like magic every time i get to that part of the song.

[polarlarve]

This is actually my favourite part of the song, i always end up backing up to this part again and again..

[CaptainPhen]

Man that's amazing! I'd love to have that music sheet :p

You play two different things in both hands right?

[KornSOAD]

I always thought this was the most beautiful keyboard part I've ever heard.. I mean, with the rest of the song, you know? It's just really beautifully done.

Thank you so much Jordan.

[FatalPowerr]

Perfect

[Niekpas]

0:09

How does a thing like that even help when you have SO MANY NOTES to play!

[AntiHero1996]

Fuck you Owl City!!

[JCRUDESS]

@AntiHero1996 Yeah- but I really like Owl City!!!

[AntiHero1996]

@JCRUDESS Haha ok sorry man, just trying to say you rule man, keep rocking!

[raymondothedoors]

@JCRUDESS Yes Jordan, I'd like too, ti is very interesting project. Good Job, see you in Italy.

[polarlarve]

@JCRUDESS You do? :D So cool!

[jordankuprij]

@JCRUDESS ME TOOOO ^_^

[TheClassroomSpecial]

@JCRUDESS @AntiHero1996

:O

[leifo5343]

@JCRUDESS Then we all do too. :-)

[FruityCoversLoops]

@JCRUDESS Me too :) He has some nices melodies =]

[ZachValkyrie]

@JCRUDESS WHAT?!? What blasphemy is this? Next thing you'll be trying to tell us that you listen to Radiohead!

[tommie997]

@ZachValkyrie Radiohead aren't that bad get a grip, I hate people that believe they listen to the 'master-genre' even if I don't like an artist or style I won't purposely go out of my way to diss them..... UNLESS its just Justin Bieber or Rebecca black, then you have a reason.

[ZachValkyrie]

@tommie997 It was a joke! It's cause JR lists Radiohead as one of his favorite bands on his website! Thanks for killing the joke asshole!

But yeah, the idea of a "Master Genre" is crap. I have Classical, Synthpop, Jazz Fusion and Death Metal in my collection; It's all music.

[tommie997]

@ZachValkyrie .........Oh.......... I hope you understand that I only meant good intentions with that comment. So I better apologize for being a dick, sorry lol.

[guitarwiz5]

I love how he has his sheet music on a PDF!!!

[psyshock918]

so good

[DAJUMUSTARD]

I need a keyboardist like this one!!!

[Slashe50]

I assume Jesus gave you the lead sound?

[dehdehderzz]

@Slashe50 he cant give himself that lead sound

[Slashe50]

@dehdehderzz

He can do anything he wants to. Don't doubt the man... person... spirit... god?

[dehdehderzz]

@Slashe50 i was implying that he is jesus and this vid is clear evidence

[Slashe50]

@dehdehderzz So was I?

[SPARDATheDemon93]

Which scale are you using here?

[Bartekdex]

@SPARDATheDemon93

Its normal G flat minor.

[Bartekdex]

@SPARDATheDemon93

G sharp* sorry

[lordcroesus]

I love this lead sound.

[RandomGuyBlake54]

The keyboard world can be tooooooo confusing!!

[korgjuan]

Do you have the partiture????

[MaxViti]

@korgjuan Go on the Jordan Rudess Online Conservatory, you pay (once time for lifetime), and you'll find this section on PDF format ;).

[dussan007]

its a very difficult solo, i´m learning it

[Megaflare93]

O____O i tried it for a lot of time but it's really difficult...

[juanpst77]

it's good specially the last moment :lol:

[4032112187G]

hahaaa what a surprise indeed. Very nice

[petrosonrocking]

"stay tune" always!

[Scottmaster84]

LOL, I was gonna write something like "hey, pretty good cover of Dream Theater man!" ... then the camera moved to reveal who was the man behind the keys! :-)

Merry x-mas!!!

[whosaidsoup13]

haha me too, but then at :33 I knew: there's only one set of fingers in the universe that can practice a ridiculous part and still do something like that

[jamiemate]

This version needs playing live. Like, all the way to the end too. Would be fun!

[Hehuwam]

Thats my favourite part of the song!!! LOVE IT!!!

Come to Chile!!! xD

[whammybarfreak]

OMG, the last part was in freaking key!!! rudess is not human

[REDTEARS667]

no -_- how is it....retard!

[whammybarfreak]

no, your just a dream theater hater, why do you even look at these videos

[REDTEARS667]

haha. ur such a twat. last month i saw them live and im happy to say that it was the best concert ive ever been to. so dont say im a hater. but that run he did at the end of that clip was not in key. it was just a random run!

[whammybarfreak]

ok then, ive seen them too, best show ever, end of conversation

[CrimsonDrift16]

HOLY SHIT ..the last part...it was in KEY ..awesome

[AsIAmDesign]

Tell them about my brother, tell them about me.....

[Martigena]

.....The Count of TUSSSCANYYYYEEEEYEYEEEYEEYEEEE­EEEEEEE YEEEAAAAAH!!

[dondinoy]

this is sick! so great!

[ryushiRj38]

ahh. my favorite part out of the whole song =)

[drsteve0487]

can anyone else imagine this played on a harpsichord?

[drsteve0487]

OK then, guess not!

[drsteve0487]

I love that keyboard lead sound. Pure Mark Kelly /Marillion from 80's.

[NightwolfsCanto]

so crazy ...

i am struggling with one hand playing that part and he just plays it double handed as it seems soo easy ^^

[dtopeth2]

what sound is that?

[mariokeyboard]

I think it is a basic waveform mixed (sawthooth & square) at the same time, with a split in the left hand. He uses that sound in octavarium and in a lot of songs and leads ;)

[sevensinsinparadise]

lol if you read the screen on his oasys it says "just relax!!!"

[TheWindWaker01]

I am trying to learn this right now...it takes so much concentration!

[zWeApOnz]

Looks like the practice paid off. :)

(See my Video Response)

[howdyjesus]

Thanks for keeping the fans posted! How much does the digital sheet music setup cost? And can it be setup to use tabs as well?

[martindecorum]

now this is an added reason why i love you guys, you just do so much more for fans thanks for this its fun to watch

[ViperK88]

I WANT THAT SHEET MUSIC!

[fingerboy18]

You couldn't use it anyway ;)

[MaxViti]

@ViperK88 It is on Jordan Rudess Online Conservatory.

[Niekpas]

@ViperK88

There's a MIDI file for this section (along with the others in these 3 practice videos) available. Just google "Count of tuscany zolhof midi" and it's the first link.

[XianL]

Jordan has another youtube channel? :o

Subscribing to this!

[SteveBrownOfficial]

Very difficult.

[Ataraxian13]

What a pumped up brute

[chrisbDTM]

i love you man haha. i got the silver ticket in my boxset and i cant wait to meet you in NYC

[jump4h]

You got a ticket?! *Willy Wonka song starts* Lucky!

I saw them in ATL a few days ago, it was amazing. You'll have a blast.

[Premetheus37]

I honestly can't tell, is that a split with the lower half transposed an octave or two up?

I tried doing something like that for ITPOE Part II so I could play lead and strings in that "Unwelcome ones, your time has come" part but my hands ended up playing parts four or five octaves apart. :-p!

[AlexTube2000]

Thanks you so much for posting.

Wonderful !!!

[archiei]

Yes yes yes!

[MrBrawl]

Looking forward to hearing this live in Milwaukee! :D

[coffeeintheface]

This part gives me goosebumps when it comes in after that Zappa/Yes-ish unison around 2:00. Good stuff Jordan.

[ZylitoL]

JORDAN!!!

Pleaaaaaase play Tuscany live at Toronto stop of Prog Nation.

It would make my year. in my opinion, this is the best DT song you've made with the band!!

[WatchOut66]

heart warming :)

[rodolfostanic]

That's one of my favorite Tuscany parts...

My favorite is from 9:41 to 10:16 (album version).

It's my phone ringtone! :D

[BlueTolerated]

I love this part

[chrisallen8888]

[44Bigs]

Awesome! Loving the Twitter updates, Jordan :)

[nightmarecinematic]

What a speed you´ve got in the left hand! Amazing!

[TheGreyMaster]

Please, play this song at Bologna's date!

[SparkMandrill]

EXQUISITE sound.

Go Jordan!!

[jerradcwilliams]

Just amazing.

Jordan you remain one of my biggest inspirations!

idk about best part. I really dig that Trumpet/Marimba (Maybe) part right before the 9/8 verses kick in

[watcher821]

I'd love to go to a tour again this fall, but for bavarians that still attend school, it is impossible :(
