Batman Animated Series Opening Theme (90's) - Piano Interpretation

[bentep0511]

now I know what song should be played in my funeral

[JoWaSi94]

Niiiiiiceeeee!

[Achilleus656]

This really helps capture the tragic side, the ominous build up, as well as the explosive action kick assery that is Batman.

[MrPhoenix1138]

COÑO! Es Cálico Batman!

[foreverdanceX0]

Does anyone know where I can get a tutorial to this?

[NeroRedgrave]

WOW! This is perfect. I love it. This will be a ringtone for my Lumia 800. ^^

[EinsteinEMP826]

this NEEDS to be played somewhere in the upcoming Dark Knight Returns animated movie Warner Bros. is currently working on.

[MorbidGuardian]

Oh my god, this is perfect. I wish I had the sheet music for this song. T_T

[TheMrwouldyourather]

@MorbidGuardian Dude, you could just learn it by ear, and if you don't know how, learn! It's easy! I don't even need sheets anymore, you should try it.

[MorbidGuardian]

@TheMrwouldyourather I'm decent with learning things by ear, but it's just tough to translate this from a complex piano piece to something simpler for guitar. :P

[andrewc586]

The Animated Series was by far the best Batman cartoon.

[campaz83]

really awesome man. So classy. So cool. Awesome.

[RemedyX77]

Could you possibly upload the mp3 or a link to it?

[deadstrider]

good ol days, thanks for taking me back :D

[JoelandtheBots]

The first part sounds like the Gotham City Overture from the CD soundtrack before it segues into the main theme.

[charles9655]

Batman

[MrMyst0gan]

This is great

[MarcTaker]

I've listened to this song at least a hundred times now, and I still can't get over how amazingly well performed this was. The nostalgia. I'm making a Batman costume for myself, and I need the sheet music for this song so that I can play it in character.

[Lstar07]

Fantastic!

[fences22]

I play piano and I love Batman and this is super well done on both counts. 

[enedving]

Wwwwhhhhy Why do talented people like you not put up sheets, or even a video. Great job though, it's a hard song to tackle, and no one else really has.

[urmomsjoybringer]

No matter how many times I hear it, I still wanna grab my cape and run through the streets. Very excellent, my friend.

[adan2959]

name of song?

[Buradori0]

He is Vengence.

He is the Knight!

He is BATMAN!

[wojkel]

Amazing!

[supersonicsmashbros]

Turn down your gain/channel bus (whichever one is peaking) ---Clipping ruins great performances.

[SailorChaos]

3 people are superstitious and cowardly

[FreeeeS]

too much foreplay just get it done like batman

[antipyrrhus]

@FreeeeS Batman (unlike, say, Superman) is all about foreplay :-) The dark and ominous atmosphere, skulking around, noiselessly coming up right behind you and scaring the bejesus out of you...

[Avexle]

@antipyrrhus Superman is about wat hapens after the vengeful sword of the dark knight that is batman brings fear to the heart of criminals and the hopefull fist of superman brings hope to the hearts of all hu stand in d light an allmighty powerhouse representing the ever omnipresent and ever winning power of good ! batman n superman appeal to the light and the dark in us all batman shows us what good can come of it and superman show us just how powerfull it is!... so either way they both rock!

[Kestryl]

@antipyrrhus : or alternatively, -beating- the Bejesus out of you:)

[ZiiRoXy]

@antipyrrhus agreed!

[mrmogensen]

@FreeeeS Owned

[DanGRtheMan]

@FreeeeS No the Foreplay is a necessary build up to contrast against the amazing and unexpected piano percussion at 1:15 onwards

[GtstTypeM]

So deserves more views.. this is amazing!!!! Cant stop listening to it.. Just wanted to say Thanks again for this beautiful piece!!!!

[GtstTypeM]

Holy awesome music Batman..

Finally after LOOOOOOOONG search. Ive found a decent Piano cover.. Epic. Truly epic!!!

To download!! vidtomp3 dot com

[heatstroke2008]

Oooooo...... shivers just went down my spine..... NOSTALGIA D:

[darkangel10468]

Man, you made my day!!! Nice touch... :)

[kingston27496001]

Can anyone tell me what the left hand is for the first 20 seconds?

[DanGRtheMan]

however, one small suggestion, maybe the end could have been made more understated, without the higher octaves and therefore darker. however, this may not be in keeping with the atmosphere of the rest of the piece, so i think it's debatable. everything else is perfect in my opinion.

[MojoLaJojo]

Oh my god, it's Batman !

[DanGRtheMan]

1:15 mark out. its amazing how he gets the piano to sound so percussive and the echoes from the lower key notes give it a dark feel.

[VECommodore]

It sounds more like the more epic music they had in Mask of the Phantasm. And for that, you get my praise. Awesomeness is all this is.

[templerman]

This is amazing! I had the sense at first of being apart of a rendition, but then as the end draws closer I feel as if I were in the bowls of Wayne Manner, as a maniacal Alfred, or his ghost plays a long silent piano as is master's spirit fly's towards Gotham in a possessed Batmobile.

[PrinceXTC86]

This is sick! Just unspeakable superior! :O

[ieetemos4breakfast]

Colossal masterpiece!!!

[TheSteinmetz342]

I am Vengence

I am the Night

I am Batman!!!

[goldenkiwi2095]

niiice

[commandersparrow]

ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL! fantasic i love it!

[Bakayaroz]

un-recognizable until like 1:15...

nostalgia start thereafter @_@

[Redfield224]

@Bakayaroz

Go watch an epiosde of BTAS after the third episode or so. the first minute and 15 or so is the theme that plays whenever Batman is on screen Bat...Manning things.

New batman adventures/Batman and robin, as well as Mask of the Phantasm use the music from the first minute or so their opening themes.

The Elfman theme was only really used as the intro/end credits for the first (two?) seasons and within the first few episodes, as well as Batmans apperances in Static Shock.

[gold7250]

@Bakayaroz thats because you dont have an inner ear my friend...

[TotalPenguins]

Great interpretation!Does anyone know where I can get sheet music for this song? It doesnt need to be the same version. Awesome job! 5/5

[GrandJediMaster7860]
