great,  my friends. very good ejecution

[brokenbutterfly747]

Bravo!!!! great!!! amazing!!!!

Can you please send me the sheets!!! please!!!! you are great!!! thanks!!! pm me!!

[5610winston]

You're GREAT! Just watched this on New Years Day (uh, night). This is one of the greatest of the Viennese operettas and the near pratfall at the end punctuates the comedy of the story. Any minor (and they were vanishingly minor) deficiencies in technique were more than compensated in your enthusiasm. BRAVO!

Keep posting!

[StevieGG08]

You're genius!!!....still i hope you didn't brake that bench ;)

[ulsbolde89]

You completely totaled that bench.

[0123niji]

Hey, Bro.

I really loved your play!! it's Too Cool!!

What you played is what I wanna.

Sorry bro, but can you give me a sheet of that?

[joelmole100]

Hey could you send me the music you used for this perf.?

I love it but havnt been able to find a copy for piano.

Thanks :D

[xLoserrBabyyHeatherr]

This is amazing! I definately wouldn't have been able to memorize this 7 minute peice! Also, thanks for uploading! I'm playing this in orchestra and I can hear my part more specifically when you play it.

[horstb29]

Bravo!

[soldierman1776]

i love the part starting at 1:40

[gcaee]

i remember this at Tom & Jerry !!

good performance

[Eugeniuis1901]

No there you are mistaken, Tom & Jerry episode which do you mean is with the music from Franz Liszt, Hungarian Rhapsody No.9!

[brukoak]

my God. How I wish I could play like that. Good Job!

[minimumwagers]

what happens when all the people that know how to play this or read sheet music are gone?

[stevey226]

The amount of copies of this piece that are out there will make it quite impossible for all of them to go.

[CAVEIN01]

yes! awesome ending. Show that chair!

[BobbinsD]

Brilliant! I was in the light hearted version - Pink Champagne last week and I think both versions are superb. This Overture is bringing the memories back!

[jbmicolino]

WOOOOONDERFUL

[essenhohoho]

[LordSuppenhuhn]

His name is Strauß With "ß"!!!

[Kazzzzzo]

[rocknum]

[shuayday]

This is wonderful! My orchestra is playing this now. Did you transcribe this yourself?

[lalomoreno]

it's simply fantastic. I loved the tune, but never found out it's name until now, and now I blame you for having me listening over and over again. I even downloaded it, and took the song to the gym. Anyway, congratulations.

[Antolewa]

Awesome!! I would give 10 stars if i could haha :P

The 'falling' part in the end really makes me laugh :D..

Nice play anyway and thanks for posting such a nice vids..

[TheFlouchke]

@biokemiker Dear Johnny, You are very gifted.  Thank you so very much for launching this clip on youtube. The fledermaus was always my favourite operette. Would it be at all be possible to get the sheet music. I would love to to play it and if possible to adapt it for the sax. Thank you very much... And please do keep posting your work. It is an absolute delight to watch and listen to you. Good luck (not that you need it) with the rest of your musical career or passion!!

[Pensi512]

[franchr000]

I never write comments, but this video is really really beautiful. Thank you and the best wishes from germany.

[A1mikesmusic]

Sir, you have incredible talent, and you are indeed gifted and deserve world wide recognition. Please can you tell us whether you have produced any CDs I would suspect they could turn into million sellers. Are you performing in any concerts as I would be most interested in attending. Thanks for sharing your fantastic talent with us. I wish you tremendous sucess in the future as you truly and honestly deserve it.

MIKE

[biokemiker]

Hi Mike: Thanks so much for your good words. I haven't produced any CD's before as Im only an amateur pianist. Playing piano is only my hobby and I just love to play. Right now Im practising Rachmaninoff's piano concerto no 3, which is absolute my favourite. I've uploaded the cadenza part on my youtube page, please feel free to watch and comment if you want. You are also welcome to subscribe to me if you don't mind. I upload videos quite often. Thanks! Kind regards Johnny Fang

[ColinMeloy91]

If I haven't already said so, you played this piece so well. you are amazng. thank you for shareing your talent with us.

[HooksGambit]

Love this piece and love your playing! Can you perhaps tell me what transcription this is?

[biokemiker]

Hi, thanks for your comment. Do you mean the original notation of this piece? If it is, this was originally written for orchestra.

[HooksGambit]

Thank you for replying. No I was wondering if this was perhaps an other composers piano-conversion of the original.

[biokemiker]

Oh, Im not sure if it is an other composers conversion. I dont remember who converted it....

[HooksGambit]

Ok well ill just look for a good version. Thank u for the information.

[ladonite]

After watching this, I'm having a hard time stopping myself from running off and teaching myself to play piano. Impulsive, but potentially awesome.

I used to watch a videotape of the Die Fledermaus ballet when I was a kid, and its one of my earliest musical memories. This was just awesome :)

[biokemiker]

Haha... thank you so much for listening so much to my playing.

[ulsbolde89]

My hat off to you.

[75jl20nr49cb]

Thanks for your great playing; please give us some more operetta music ('Leise, ganz leise' from O.Straus: Walzertraum,or 'Ja,das alles auf Ehr' from J.Strauss: Zigeunerbaron). Congratulations!

[biokemiker]

Thanks very much my friend. I'm planning to play the overture to the Zigeunerbaron. I will put it on youtube as soon as possible.

[mortenwiberg]
