Acoustic Classical Piano "Rhapsody In Blue" - 3pianists.com

[lllllllllllllll88]

Quality is very bad. Too bad because the playing is awesome!

[TheSecretPhantom]

You play with passion and beauty in every note you hit, but...I would rather hire a fucking monkey to play the piano for me.

[Snorney]

@TheSecretPhantom Yea I know right! Whats up with the frekin' advertisements!

[FreeAsian]

oh god... im gonna be playing this for my exam...?

[kage1369]

music lives from nuances, you just shred it through...

[bonchplate]

Now that's impressive. Picking on a friggin 14 year old kid like you're Franz LIzst. Yes it wasn't Oscar Levant, but the performance and multiple piano arrangement at least deserve some encouragement. This kid will get there, if he hasn't already.

[Chugboat2006]

Excellent performance, sounds great, such a good piece.

[dailybitjetmaker]

Music & Interpretation: Superb *****

Video: Why can't we see the other 2 pianists? **

[jamesivan24]

I believe it would be because there's only one guy playing the piano.

[maggiepower]

watch it again. There are other people playing too.

[aujsd]

wow i am amazed. I have been trying to learn this song forever! you guys rock!

[330199188]

Awesome, pianos need to be tunes though.

And still like the straight eighth notes as compared to your swing version, but it was a nice change:)

[tiddlescymru]

This is great performance! My only niggle is that its a little too swung, but thats just personal taste, but in terms of performance and what-not its brilliant.

[chucksykex]

The people who criticize are usually the ones that can't do as well, OR they would be. Note, they never refer you to 'their' performance. I think these kids are prodigy's.

[MrWileyCoyote]

Who ARE these people who only criticize? The performance was WONDERFUL. I thoroughly enjoyed it. And I appreciate the owner putting this on UTube... all I can say is "Keep up the good work! and Thank you!"

[dgoodlaxson]

These pianos desperately need to be tuned!

[28880]

i belive this was a dvd...!...

[Cooleospongenickle]

it was a song on Fantasia2000 if that is what you mean

[28880]

what-ev I wasn't asking!

[balderdashxx]

I've listened to 4 or 5 versions on the Rhapsody on Utube by various talented but amateur pianists. Most of the performances are chopped and ragged, with poor understanding of Gershiwin's phrasing. They all need to consult a serious pedagogue to understand G's intentions.

[wborgstro]

pointless to record when pianos are all out of tune. My ears said "no more" after about 10 seconds.

[Cli0f4natic]

Your ears need a tune...

[jjarvis69]

Prick

[atticusfinch4pres]

wonderful! keep up the hard work- it really pays off!

[MHart09221954]

Really good.

[Verdi1234]

messy...

[ClassicoPiano]

Awesome

[chucksykex]

excellent technique, beautiful. Was this by ear, or memorized music? Either is superb. Wish I could see or find 2nd session where the

Rhapsody is played.

[ShatteredScarlet]

BY EAR??!!

I dont think they're THAT good

[Aden0]

lol yeah, theres no way thats done by ear!

[ShatteredScarlet]

omg thats just...superlatively amazing! Asian kids have all the skills...I wish I was asian

[hugleberthumperdink]

coz theyre forced to

[orangjenius]

without talent, even force wont do. And gosh this song reminds me of Nodame Cantebile.

[ShatteredScarlet]

true. And some may be forced, but some love it

[jimikerrguitar]

great stuff

[oldestfan]

kids are amazing!!!!!!

[DavidLT101]

Why don't you show the other piano players, repost it showing them all , have someone eles video tape it, so we can see all 3 of you, very boring just watching the one piano

[shithappens17]

wtf...dis is precisely d reason why i gave up on piano and got into guitar playing instead

[bang1888]

Whatta genius!

[ronrosenbaum]

Rhasody in Blue is a duet but it also can be a solo. I'm learning it and have completed 14 pages only.

[choulapine]

it's not a duet. It's orchestra reduction

[ronrosenbaum]

I am learning Rhapsody in Blue Solo in IBA Sydney and I am 12 years old. Taught by Professor Wei Tsn Fu.

[aStrimbu]

Congratulations

[mothmank]

why are they rushing it through????

[fun76unlimited]

duh kathayy, he is playing with other ppl, DUH!

[Itsallkosher123]

Of course there are others playing along. Hence the title "3pianists" and the picture of THREE different pianists that pops up towards the bigging. I do a gree it's a little too chaotic for me, but its different and kind of nice none the less...

[Enodino]

all the skill is waster the song aint that nice hey but nice work

[nongaku]

sorry..but I don't like this version of Rhapsody in blue.. it's kinda chaostic

[roseism]

agreed

[aiyaaKATHAYY]

I think there are other pianists playing with him in this song. You can tell that there are more than 1 person playing.

[brianmachias]

Thanks that was wonderful

[smartone180]

I don't know....for the whole first part he wasn't playing the extremely hard part (it's a given that any part of this piece on it's own is difficult.) but he eventually started playing the melody and everything on his own and it sounded pretty darn good.

[TLoveland4692]

Was someone else playing with him?

He didn't play any of the melody...
