My Mom playing a beautiful piece of Classical Piano

[pianoplayeruk]

This is still my favourite video on Youtube!

How is your mum these days?

[sorobji]

Absolutely captivating. The whole family has it in their blood!

[Fr3derick]

Simply beautiful

Grandma Mary

[acleverfox]

I don't feel so bad about aging now! She's inspiring.  God blessed her little fingers. Bravo!

[ArunGarg001]

Considering her age, she has incredibly seasoned technique and brilliant musicality. BRAVO

[ritorenello]

Bravo! Bravo! I'm 32 years old, have been playing for 20 years, a good amateur but seeing this video inspired me a lot! Your mum's playing is amazingly musical, she's like a master pianist, I'm sure she was a very special gifted lady...

Very inspiring! Thank you.

May she sleep in piece.

[WBensburg]

I had to "refind" this video after hearing Charles Rosen's bravura account to hear what it should sound like. Brava, again! (Now favorited, so I'll always find it).

[goldberg72]

ANCHE MEGLIO DI RACKMANIF AL PUNTO 3:14 THE BEST

[robertwhiteemail]

How beautiful and touching, Im sure your mother was a very special lady and you must have wonderful emotions going through your body when you listen to her play, there can be no doubt that she is resting in peace and I bet entertaining all the souls that are with her. Thank you for this, I am going to get this piece of music and try to learn it too.

[czaja36]

HEAR! HEAR AND SEE HER AGELESS HUMAN SOUL IS ETERNALLY YOUNG AND HER BEAUTY LIKE THE MUSIC'S MESSAGE IS BEING EXPRESSED IN HER PLAYING AS MYSTICALLY AS DOES FRAGRANCE EXUDE SO SWEETLY AND WONDROUSLY FROM A FLOWER OPENING HERE IN THIS OUR NOW IN THIS STILL NOW OF OUR LISTENING AND SEEING RIGHT HERE IN THIS EVER NOW HERE IN THE GARDEN THAT IS OUR LIFE.!

[Mamasan41]

This is the most beautiful piano interpretation of this piece I have ever heard. Tthank you so very very much.

[Mamasan41]

@Mamasan41 Sad to learn that she has passed.  Rest in peace, dear lady, and bon voyage.

[Ben123planes]

lovelyto see someone at such an old age, still playing piano, my grandmother i confined to her flat at 83 after a nasty fall she took on xmas day 2009 at 5am after going for a smoke, slipping up on the ice and fracturing her ankle, she's fine now, but that fall really wrecked her confidence, lovely piece of music there.

[lukekellycopy]

Does she know any WWII songs? It would be good to hear a piano version of the song.

[Humaneering]

[mcrarebooks]

This is a beautiful heartfelt performance of a very difficult piano piece. And this woman regardless of her age is a fine pianist! At 84 it is simply remarkable.

Beautiful tone, power, poetry = Rachmaninoff!

Brava!

Terence

[kyliecoulter85]

I love the part at 3:51 my gosh, I've only just started playing three months ago, and this inspires me to play for my whole life. It really is all about practice, passion and persistence isn't it?

[codycrowder]

i love the fact that an 80 year old woman can play Rachmaninoff without flaw

hopefully I don't get arthritis before that

[codycrowder]

oh how i love rachii

[Hirally]

Wonderful, wonderful!!

[rafa5513]

your momy is veru cute...like a little cat....hehe

[missycleo2]

Your mother is truly a wonderful gifted pianist - more please

[Oshjoshbegosh]

This is absolutely Beautiful!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!! I wanna be able to play as well as her when Im in college.

[pattiloach]

Bravo! from Toronto! it's beautiful.

[estazez]

who are the 4 idiots who put a thumbs down for this!

[lllllllllllllll88]

Wonderful. She's young though. My elderly friend is 95 and still plays wonderful pieces.

This is a GREAT video! Her memory is better than mine. lol

[bellofpeterpan]

Fantastisch!!

[pianogirl97]

What a stunning performance of a very difficult piece. Thanks so much for posting this. I am inspired to keep going for another 20+ years with my career!

[findyoungin]

She's amazing and definitely inspiring. The end of the video was so touching in a way i can't quite explain! bravo bravo bravo!

[ARGENTINATANGO1]

Exelente!!

[sosaley]

Simply Beautiful and perfect. I thoroughly enjoyed the maturity in which she approaches this piece, perfect touch. .. breathing, articulation. . . I am at a loss of words. Truly honored to be listening to this wonderful recording. Thank you Mr.Knight. This made my day!

[aden0724]

I feel glad that I know how to play an insrtument.

When all else fails you, music is your companion that will never give you up.

[mattfisher100]

well i know playing a whole piece like that is a master piece so grateful for you sharing

[mjdcgb]

Eternal gratitude for sharing your mother's priceless musicianship.

[tuyetchi88]

Couldn't shut my mouth! Absolutely cannot believe it! She's so amazing and even more than that!

[SuperMulticulti]

Very moving... Thank you very much for your beautiful interpretation.

[grandy77]

god bless her

[crogersrx]

Just have to say that EVERY TIME I watch/listen to this beautiful woman play this incredible piece of music, it brings tears to my eyes. BRAVA!!

[snaaptaker]

When someone (I forget who) told Rachmaninoff that this was a very difficult piece to play, Rach replied, "DIFFICULT??!! It is IMPOSSIBLE!!"

I don't believe I've ever heard it played more beautifully. You should be (and I'm sure you are) extremely proud of your mom.

BRAVA!!

[Peteer7]

Beautiful! 5/5 Your mother is amazing. Great job.

[stockcar5472]

More please - encore. Wonderful!

[tillster1423]

this is my all time favorite version of this piece. it is incredible for a woman of such an age to be so fantastic at the piano. i absolutely adore people like this. well done.

[22ForeStreet]

beautiful... there's nothing else i can say about this; it is spell-binding

[tasteism]

Your mom is very good. I have one correction: It is not 'Liebeslied' but 'Liebesleid' which means unhappy love or not reciprocated love. Your mom turns this insignificant song really into something!

[narutostarfire]

wow i wish my mom can play piano but she can sing.this is a excellent piano player i wish her my thanks for making my day and you sir for uploading your mom piano play video.i can see you have great respect for mom.god bless her.

and if i may say this ive been watching alot of piano music to find some form of reference and add my personality to music i can create and this video is showing that piano music need to have a spiritual form and passion for a piece to sound its greatest thank you

[McLellandPianoStudio]

Wow! I hope I can play this beautifully by the time I'm 84! Gorgeous sound.

[conrad2468]

its cool that adults are now starting to use technology! It preserves the past so us young ones can easily access it!

[nathen14]

Is the piano a technological advance?

The piano is very old

[JimmieBluffdweller]

Incredibly expressive playing here...wish we could see the hands and her technique. Marvelous pedaling.

[freefroggynow]

I would NEVER tire of hearing more....if she could

indulge us. I am a pianist...but not that GOOD!!!

BRAVO

[crogersrx]

Your mother is AMAZING!! Please post more recordings of her playing.  Give us a bio of her piano background.

She's wonderful!

[TiffanyMaree]

She is very talented!! :)

[b33nawak3]

great!  but should have filmed were we could see

[behnamjs]

beautiful !!! she,s great :)

[arquemuse]

The musical brain is still such a mystery to science. What we know is that it works well into old age. Musical therapy can do wonders in people with Alzheimer's. They jump up and start dancing and singing. Oliver Sacks and others are just starting to understand how music works. Your mother is just the living proof that the wires are still working with such vitality!

[carnivalcruiserbill]

Your mother is such an inspiration!

[GornallB]

aww ^_^ god bless that was fantastic and she looked really tired after it ^^ i love her

[PirategalStella]

Wow! So cool! I love this song too =D

[underverser]

That was incredible for a person that age...

[scottaranda]

O.M.G. I love the expressions on both of their faces at the end of the piece. That is wonderful piano playing. Keep it up and best wishes. -Scott (San Antonio, TX)

[brianjana]

[EricTheRed03]

I don't care how old she may be.. that was hot!

[klasydj]

[geoffreygonzales]

INCONCEIVABLE!!!

[lookingforboludeces]

[haclil]

More power to your grandma, that was just beautiful.

[kleeundefeu]

That was fantastic! What a great pianist! Superb performance, and then considering her age ... incredible! So much class and emtion.

I almost was moved to tears by her facial expression at the end of the performance.

What a great lady?

Is there any more material of her for us to listen to?

[58pianos]

What a treat to have a grandmother with such talent. I hope she passed on some of her talent to you.

[xXNickxUchihaXx]

um....

thats his mother, not grandmother...

and she is amazing!

i guess its true when they say with age comes wisdom!

[tyrizzo1]

thats amazing! i can't believe she is 84 she plays like she is 30, some people say that your talents decrease as you get older, obviously not!
