  • amo el opening de elfen lied owo

  • That was very beautiful

  • Gracias muy lindo el tema

  • Gave me chills.

  • what?! wow Elfin Lied!

  • well ... the clapping does ruins the mood

  • Maravilhosa apresentação...Ayako Ishikawa esta perfeita meus sinceros Parabéns...

  • beautiful

  • The violinist is much more talented than the pianist. It was still great though.

  • @randumo24 to be honest you can't really say that, they both played remarkably, just because you may be able to hear the violin over piano sometimes does not mean one is better than the other,

  • 太棒了!好喜欢!GOOD!

  • fuck.. the clapping threw everything off

  • mum I don't want to eat my broccoli! oh wait that's just the green like bar....

  • pfff----great¡¡....hermosa musica¡¡¡....waowwwww...mueve todos mis sentidos.....

  • Video started playing... after few secs it started loading cause my net too slow, then I paused the video completely and waited for 30min to make absolutely shure it's loaded :3, cause pausing in the middle of the this music is... MADNESS

  • I wish i were there when they performed this.

  • thats so damn awesome! *Q*

  • one of my best thems

  • ur a little faster than the piano, and ur wrist isn't bending at all but THIS IS THE BEST VERSION IVE HEARD SO FAR!!!!!!! REALLY AMAZING JOB :DDDDDDD

  • \(TwT)/

  • Sound real good. Also agree to what you sayed. If it was prefected it would not be differwnt it would be the same and would be tried. Good Work!

  • i only dreams of playing violin or piano that way....someday...

  • I think some people fail to realize the whole purpose of performing music.. Most of the time, its not even supposed to sound -exactly- the same. That's what makes each version and performance unique. If it sounded the same, you might as well be playing the same exact piece over and over. Its those little mistakes, or in this case 'differences' that make many re-editions, such as this one, separate from a copy. Kind of like humanity itself, if you think about it. :P

  • @Saisashi I agree with everything you said. It actually leaves me a little cold whenever I go to one of these and the performance sounds exactly the same as the original. I don't want it to sound drastically different but I want it to be different enough from the original to make the experience worthwhile. I want the performers to put their personalities/emotions/etc. into the performance and I want to be able to hear it in the music. Thank you for your well thought out comment :)

  • @Saisashi I totally agree. I would always get so annoyed when someone or myself performs something and some random person would say, "That doesn't sound like..."

  • it's a good attempt i quite enjoyed it but you can't be that def not to hear how bad the tempo is off between both piano and violin at first but with that said i want say they are very talented and i think if they had more practice together could nail it very easily

  • Masterfuly done amazing job

  • I Want to Cry

  • OMG!! you can't blame us for going back here listening to you all and over again!! THUMBS UP IF THIS IS YOUR 20+ Visit here XD

  • this took my breath away... i can't even play nearly as good as you do.

  • i laughed my ass off when they started clapping and stop when the piano continued playing xDDDD

  • This is sooo gooD !!

  • first this song did not originate with the anime elfen lied it was a Russian musician who composed it and this song is very old.

  • @lopoka56 Would you mind telling me the name of that musician and the title of the original composition?

  • no the song was made for the anime. the song was created/based off a german poem named elfenlied by Eduard Mörike. elfen lied is German and means " Elf song ", Elfenlied as one word would be the correct form.

  • @MrLigmenarxis oh sorry but when i listen another version it sound like russian for me well sorry about thhe incorrect information but i dont know german neither russian

  • @lopoka56

    Nope.

  • Beautiful. Work of Art. Beautiful balance and tone.

    -Oboe Hero-

  • アレンジがちょっと残念

  • uggh im sorry but i just think its weird n bad playing a song at a concert from an anime.......i no, sumthings wrong with me. but otherwise it was beautiful

  • @sqeaksquad they play this in school concerts, church chores... how do i know ? look it up on youtube.. and no i doubt they pay copyright.. sad isnt? an anime about human stereotypes, stigmas, demons and man, and a midsummers eve romance.. its monolithic, opening is played at a lazy, 9 am church service somewhere in the states..

  • @sqeaksquad What? O_o Well, I am glad that musicians don't think like you. Some of the most beautiful pieces of music composed contemporarily feature in anime and games. In some anime, like Ghost in the Shell, the arrangement of traditional music and orchestra has never been done on that scale before. I advice you to go look up some of its music live - you will see the incredible scope of the music you think is "weird and bad" to play at a concert.

  • uggh im sorry but i just think its weird n bad playing a song at a concert from an anime.......i no, sumthings wrong with me.

  • oh man is extremely beautiful the song with violin

  • BUENAZO

    

  • OMG this is so amazing

  • Daaang your good!

  • that`s one of my favorites songs and both are pretty goods... (Y),,, gretting from Hermosillo, Sonora, Mx.

  • Well damn then... Marcello did a great job for learning that in a day. Great performance and thanks for uploading

  • Wow. this is ammaazzing. you have great intonation and the dynamics are amazing :O. You do very well on the labrato :D :D

  • did anyone notice the other person sitting with the piano guy?

  • @southsidese18 that's the page turner probably

  • I wish I was there to applaude for you

  • I might not be an experienced musician to point the little mistakes ( if they were any ) but i think it was an amazing and flawless performance by two very talented musicians!

  • It seems to me that this version was too... bold. Rather than being the soft, sad and sole melting harmony the original version was, it seems that this version is too aggressive and it is hard to loose yourself in it. Good never the less.

  • So beautiful that there is no need for words, no need for lyrics. How lovely i do applause.

  • Words cant express that songs beauty

  • great changes, both wonderful composition.

    If you are real musicians

  • exelente tema musical xdddddddd

  • OH JESUS! when she bowed the first note i exploded...

  • my i have the sheet music for the violin please? :D

  • i really wanna learn how to play the violin...AWESOME JOB!

  • Amo esta melodiaaaaa

  • \o/  PERFECT *--*

  • WoW Perfect!!!!

  • \o/ lindo... e sem falar que é um dos melhores animes que eu ja vi !!

  • this was so beautiful, really sent shivers down my spine, especially during the first bit!

  • @morgan145able yeah... me too... I actually like the anime and that includes the music... That is amazing....

  • @niggerboy9000

    I didn't asked what's her role there if you read carefully of my comment. I know what's her duty on that play, duh. How stupid do you think I am? I've just missed sight of her since the beginning and just questioned my lack of sight ability. THAT'S ALL WHAT I'M SAYING, MORON.

  • She looks like a princess...

  • que hermosa musica interpretada por dos grandes musicos como ustedes y mas a un por un instrumento tan hermoso como lo es un violin felicidades les deceo o mejor y si tienen otros videos fabor de avisarme

  • xD People were about to clap!! XDDD

  • is it just me? or I'm the only moron that have only noticed that there were a woman beside the man who was playing the piano at 3:38 ?

  • Would you guys mind playing Lilium at my funeral?

  • Wow he got it that good in a day? Impressive :) and beautifully played. I can't see why you could complain with this in your ears...

  • 1:44 Epic Fail of public XD

  • @Maniaxpro just epic.

  • wow!

  • amazing job

  • Now if they could have had a girl sing in Latin it would have be perfect

  • You know who isn't human? You know who isn't human?

    PEOPLE LIKE YOU!!

  • I can play a bit better on the piano as well.... This guy on the piano is not doing the advanced way.... But still 5/5

  • So beautiful! Very well played. Love it!

  • The show really starts at 1:21.. ^_^v

  • can anyone tell me the name of the violin player? she's so good.. i wanna be like her.. >_<

  • I'm not sure... but I'm pretty certain that this is a viola... not a violin

  • @IxNullxI That's what I was thinking. I want sheet music! Viola ftw!

  • I hate how people caugh in the middle of people's performances >.< you can hold it in!

  • a little anime music go to the thing after some yo man like me come to watch this and say yo this is beast! gf justin bieber!

  • I can play a bit better on the viollin

  • @lovelylamp so?

  • damn. now i wanna play violin. i already moved from piano to drums back to piano and now to tenor sax and now i wanna play violin or cello. !!!

  • Both musicians are very good at their respective instruments. That includes Marcello. They both played their parts very well and while it may not have been a perfect performance the majority of the errors would pass virtually unnoticed if you didn't take the time to judge them. I'm relatively certain that nearly every person that complained lacks the experience required to do better. Without paying attention to errors the performance was one I would have liked to have seen in person.

  • @Traece Thanks for the well thought out reply. I'd like to point out that Marcello was a last minute replacement because the original pianist backed out. He had to learn everything in less than a day. With that in mind, I think he performed very well. It might not sound exactly like the original (which could be the reason for peoples' complaints) but it doesn't always have to be exactly the same for me to enjoy it.

  • @eminencefan2k7 why did the pianist back out?

    i really liked this btw.

  • @bubbaXzone Yeah I thought they did a good job. No idea why the original pianist canceled. We arrived there and they announced that Marcello was taking over,

  • @eminencefan2k7 I wish I could play this with someone :) very nice performance

  • @Traece I completely agree with u, the errors r so major that unless u really know the song u wouldn't understand. The piece in and of itself i would find to be difficult because the triplet pace on of the piano threw the violet off. I could hear it slightly. But all together it was a beautiful performance. I'm sure it was very pressuring for them as well. Duets r tough

  • @Traece

    Agreed... that's an amzing performance, touching in every bit of it

  • I like this version but I ♥love♥ the version of the opening!!!

    A fanatic who loves to Elfen Lied♥♥

    ♥♥♥♥♥♥ Elfen Lied ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥

  • Larga vida a Nyuu!!! :P

  • The violinist is just amazing how every note she plays just resonates every feeling this song brings out. Such a beautiful piece that has ever been played! Thank you for posting this video.

  • BOOO CHEEE PA MI ESTO LA PAPOLA ES SISIS SUNA BIENTO PERO LE FALTA CONTUNDECIA AL PIANO EL VIOLIN ES PAPOLA, SIGUAN ASI CHE great work, and i think is very importan to known play the muisc in this time just for for a momen listen the muisc people, and please listen damas gratis and pibes chorros that is music

  • @juancho9230 pibes chorros?? wtf jaja... you must be from argentina right? dont compare that music with this xD

  • WOW THERE ARE TWO PEOPLE ON THE PIANO.

  • @TheScythe217 the task of the other is to flip the page

  • @TheScythe217 ones most likely turning the pages......

  • @TheScythe217 Um, that's the page-turner.

  • simplemente HERMOSO y PERFECTO

  • beaty, very beaty!

    it´s very impressive

    She plays the violin as goddess♥

  • Seems like the pianist needs to go to the bathroom. Hes playing way too fast.

  • *O* FalTo yoo para qanttarlaa asii qedara qompletta ♥

  • The violin sang and cried.  Beautiful performance on the violinist's part. The pianist was clumsy and he was playing the entire wrong chord progressions in some places though, which was a little disappointing.

  • ORGASMIC

  • @grantony14 EARGASMIC!

  • the violonist is so beautiful and plays with such a grace, made me cry

  • omg. the violin is wow .. it made me cry .

  • why...so...beautiful... Dx

  • ohh muy bueno eh!

  • Was a nicely played by the violin. I did not like the way the piano tried to harmonize with the violin though. The selection of notes used to accompany the violin was quite poor, limiting the potential emotions that come out of the song. If played well by all instruments, this song can express incredible emotions of sadness, nostalgia and even happiness at parts, I did not feel those with this video because I was overwhelmed by the number of dissonant notes. Sorry, I'd give violin a 5 though.

  • c'est des professionels? j'ai l'impression qu'il sont souvent pas ensemble dans se qu'ils jouent.

  • The violin owned that piano dude. The piano was way to fast, and ruined the violin's tempo. It just didn't flow with my ears and did not capture the emotion; it is supposed to be sad and slow.

    Overall, the violin is more accurate.

  • @DivineWindOfTheSnow All of you people need to learn to read music. Not for a second do any of you think that maybe it's the arrangement that intends for this sound? Music isn't set in stone, you sound like you listen to a lot of radio songs.

  • @oloompop

    I do not listen to radio songs, thank you.

  • @oloompop

    That comment made me laugh. Anyone with a good set of ears, and has listened to good quality music can tell straight off the bat that the piano was not good. Arrangement for the sound? LOL. If it was, then it was flat out terrible.

    I bet most of the viewers here felt that the one who dominated the stage was the violin.

    Lastly, it was an opinion if you didn't agree with it. In fact, the opinion that you're referring to was dead on. Get over it.

  • I love this song, but the piano, is not good...

    The violin is perfect...

  • damn... por esta cancion me gustaria aprender a tocar violin (y por canciones de Haggard)... despues del 2:11 se me puso la piel chinita como la china xD

  • Lovely! but they play a bit to fast

  • Beautiful!! *w*

    I LOVE this Melody.. and played in the my two favorite instruments.. !!=D

  • Comment removed

  • la violinista excelente el sonido es muy bonito :3 el piano no me gustó, esta mal acompañando :/

  • The pianist seems to be zoned out or not listening to the violinist... they are not in sync. It still remains to be beautiful, though. 

  • les falta practica de coordinacion

  • hermoso....muy buena coordinacion y como siempre esa melodia bella!!!!!!!!!!

  • @LeonArcher2514 -Haha. I see. I'm guessing it's a her.

  • Amazing!

  • AWSOME !!!

  • @LeonArcher2514 Holy Apocalypse Batman! I see him.. eh.. her? ..it?

  • Those who think that pianist is too fast, you are all wrong. That's how fast you play it on piano coz it's just 3 min long and rest is just repeartuare and other additions. When you play piano+violin duo, you play piano much faster than violin or it just sounds horrible

  • I can't get over how her violin sounds! AMAZING!

    Puts mine to shame.

  • nice >.<!!!!

  • Wow.The violinist is just awesome,she perfectly reproduce the rhytm of the song and in such a smooth,splendid way.But I felt like the pianist was getting in her way,kinda obstacling her instead of supporting her performance.

  • They clapped early cos it was too good for thier ears !! XD

  • oh my gosh did you guise notice the wood paneling in the back??

  • The pianist was delaying the rhythm of the music. Even Miss Ayako, trying to help, he could not play properly.

  • beautiful... beautiful indeed...

  • the violin girls rulz

    but the pianist sucks :S

  • @321nab the pianist plays a bit too hard.

  • @wiebenjijzeg

    i guesss xD

  • all that was needed was Tarja Turunen to perform the vocals.

  • 27 people are def to pure beauty in form of sound

  • @Zrider87 I know, it's sad :(

  • sta super prity me ncantooo....!!!=)

  • wonderful. i l ove this violine + piano version

  • umm... this is just me, I kinda thought she looked like a robot

  • lol at 1:45 the audience starts clapping but then stops because he not done >w<

  • And after a long time here i am again.. gotta love that piano/violin combination..

  • I would say how beautiful the peformence was, or how amazing the peformers were, but i would just like to say thank you :) thank you for the beauty that i'v been aloud to feel.

  • nice. never thought someone would play it lie that.

  • simplemente hermoso amo esta cancion y su anime elfen lied

  • the piano is too overpowering. the violin is supposed to take the lead with piano accompaniment.

    Overall it was ok but the piano player was weak.

  • @XxMalcolm sorry, but you just said that "the piano was overpowering", then contradicted yourself and said "the piano player was weak". which one were you talking about? because I'm not sure if you were actually watching this video.

  • @IMGONNABEA16YERVAMP

    Semantics. He is weak as in not very good. If you are going to argue at least do it with something sound instead of a smartass reply.

  • @XxMalcolm

    I know this is late, and I'm not trying to argue anything since his playing in here was a bit 'weak', but in his defense--on the Fields of Hope video the uploader commented that Marcello had less than 12 hours to prepare for this since the original pianist couldn't make it. </3 So for that short amount of time, I say he's pretty impressive!

  • you forgot the best part of the song...

    everyone does D:

  • was this made for the anime or is it a seperate music used in the anime?

  • @HolyCow3000 It was made specifcally for the anime, but the song itself uses a lot of Biblical references.

    I'll probably need extra confirmation on that second part, since I've never read a Bible in my life. But just from the lyrics, it's kinda obvious they're referencing some form of God.

  • oh i see
