Today, I watch your youtube videos like they're my source of energy.
15 years from today, I'm going to write a song. It's going to be bold. Beautiful. And fun. Just like this one. And Jon Schmidt? I'll invite you to my concert ;)
I got an opportunity to see him perform a few years back in Salt Lake and it was by far the best show I've seen in my life. His talent and pure creativity are like none I have ever seen before.
Hey guys. As you might have noticed, there are some differences between the notes and what Jon plays in the live version, as well as in the studio version. Now one of those differences is the end, at the beginning of page 11. What do you think and most important, what do you play? I prefer playing what Jon plays instead of what the notes say... or is there a version I don't know which contains the end which corresponds the to the notes? Can anyone help me? I love playing this song.
Just discovered this guy a few weeks ago. Discovered All of Me about a week ago. Discovered this video today. Unbelievable. I'm a new fan of classical piano.
The reason i like jon...Is because he plays the way that HE wants to play! He DEFIES all Rules in piano playing! If you had told any Professional piano player you were going to use your head to play some notes while using ur arm to hit the others... They would Back hand you!
Such a strong point he makes with All of Me. Brings spirit, heart, joy and love to every song he plays. Love ya Jon. You will always be an inspiration to me whether I am alive or not. Thank you.
Not only does Jon Schmidt give us great music, but he gives great devotionals too. Jon told the youth here in Boise Idaho his secret to playing such great music. I had been stuck on a song that I wanted to finish. I kept trying and the words wouldn't come.As soon as I got home I ran up to my room to try Jon's secret, which was that he prays and asks God for guidance and inspiration.As soon as I finished my prayer, I was able to finish my song called "Believe" by Sarah Moore. We believe, do you?
It's Randall, I played for you at the Atherton ward today for the fireside. thank you so much for letting me play for you, and i will be posting videos of my songs soon.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
have you ever heared about shity music?... that's what it look like, really i'm wondering what kind of people loves that,! Yes i love great classicals songs, but compared to that ... the music of that man is so boaring that we can't remembr the melody
i saw him in concert last night at a Chile benefit concert... surprisingly, there wasn't a very big audience at all. I've seen him in concert before with about 1000 of high school kids and they were cheering like crazy... these people were barely clapping--rather disappointing since Jon and Steve definitely deserve standing ovations for their beautiful (and very funny) performance. I LOVED it. This song was one of the highlights of the concert.
i will NEVER forget the summer i heard this piece. A guy a just met was playing on the brand new Steinway at our church, and it was incredible. I love the Major 2nd between the C# and D# in the beginning.
yes! He is great piano player.....he plays together with his soul.....got the feeling there whenever i listen to his music....He is really great! I won`t press skip when i listening his music.
this piece is amazing!!! I remember the first time i heard this was at a church function and some guy was playing it at a steinway baby grand at church, and it was the most incredible sound!!! I was in love with him for a day lol, but I'll always love this piece!!!
