[winkipopful]

'Billy Connolly"the movie used this song waaaaay before karate kid!

And it's a ballet movie, so BOOM!

[lryl9130]

I still like the piano version...

[590whoCares]

[burkeology]

Nice arrangement, I especially enjoy the "intro"

[MsXHAi19]

this piece makes me wanna go cry.. :'( 

[karenlarra]

se me eriza la piel! me encanta!!!!

[Magochixxx]

the violin is crying soo hard.....

[krimzonvillain]

Not as heartbreaking as in the Karate Kid for some reason...maybe the violinist isn't playing the pauses quite right :p

[getezra1]

it is also in the movie The Pianist after the war

[blackzeus298]

@getezra1 In piano version (:

[ifififini]

well I found it in karate kid :) but at least I know this beautiful sng now

[messirulez]

[yasamanmusic]

why are people talking abut the karate kid? Enjoy the beautiful music <3 very beautiful... "the secret of life is in art"

[matprithellodave]

WTF is all this karate kid stuff about?

[maqGd]

@matprithellodave some people has known the Opus through the movie and someone else didn't like that… But who cares? anyway, it's great :D

[kazuyanh]

@matprithellodave 'cause, in the movie, one of the protagonists plays it in a concert at school..

[juanbarraza100]

awesomely  awesome

[SSvolksgrenadier]

i found it in the pianist :D

[SpanishBogatyr]

[poppytran]

I keep hitting it repeat ... It ill be so romantic but sad lil bit when u listen Nocturne no.20 in Autumm or Winter...

[AboDi22lalala]

do not miss the piano version 

[4EVERSKITTLESLOVER]

I wish i could play this on my father's funeral but i was just 7 :l

[fabiomiguel3]

epic

[MissHungarianGirl]

I haven't watch Karate Kid or The Pianist but I know this song and it's beautiful. Simply perfect.

[ArtSmarts41293]

I've been searching all over for this particular version since (Don't shoot me, okay?) Karate Kid 2010. So thanks for posting this. Not exactly the same piece as from the film, but I like this better.

[girliegirl754]

absoulety lovely piece of music! :) i hope some day i can play dis on the violin xD

[arsieiuni]

I have always been a fan of Chopin... but have never come across this particular piece before watching the new Karate Kid... I'm really glad I found it tho because it is moving and so powerful.

[angelicalovesblackbu]

perfect... absolutely perfect



[biopressure]

Muntazam bir parca tek kelimeyle...

[lucerokenpoikl]

la verdadera música entra por el oído, te trasporta y la expresas con un gesto. gracias a quien hace este sueño sea posible.

[XxAJM88xX]

WOW HOLY CRAP!! this song is so powerful! just the sound that the violin has is incredible! the piano in the back ground just makes the song come to life! this piece. i have heard it so many times and it just gets better every time that i listen to it! This song can and will take you to a new world!

[freakshow293]

The Karate Kid? The pianist? I first noticed this song on friggin Terminator: The Sarah Conner Chronicles! Lol yeeaah! xD

[joelxdxd1]

pajaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa



[freakyfreak9942]

i agree with sam10902 speechless....

[sam10902]

speechless....................­...............

[hellopeps140]

have no memory of hearing this in Karate Kid so i give them no credit for my exposure to this wonderful piece. I’m glad it happened that way too. :]

[Mugenloserhead]

@hellopeps140 Probably you watched the first Karate Kid film (a whole lot better than the 2010 film for me)

Well, as for me, I heard it in the film "The Pianist"

[hellopeps140]

@Mugenloserhead I agree with you on your opinion on the Karate Kid. I first heard it in band. A fellow student was playing it on piano and from there I was hooked :]

I also did hear it on The Pianist. That's what made me look up this piece again x]

[aghaanantyab]

hahaha i like it! like what i've heard in karate kid

[osamaao]

Soul touching and breathing taking.

[rcluckyful]

i think if i played this on the violin im going to freak out my fingers will be in pain and i think i will be so nervous if i recite this in front of my violin teacher i quit a long time ago !! ^ ^ <<

[magicminion]

it's a lullaby for those going to heaven

[90Lyka]

His opuses are actually like poems.

[emrspeed]

Whoop de doo if you heard this before the karate kid! Point is this song is beautiful regardless

[brandyzong]

Old piano music means a lot to me. I just love it. It's like listening to an old history story that will never be forgotten.

[Mario01431]

this music puts me in a strange calm i dont know how its the only music that does it to me its like when i hear this playing i just want to close my eyes and stand in place forever

[sahalwa84]

we may be living in a modern world, but the kind of songs/music we have nowadays can never ever beat this. i know we have many types of music, but this one is a divine exception, not to be compared with anything.

[TheWindowsWorld]

yes =D karate kid

[kazymaniac]

karate kid

[mitrong123]

A great song, I feel fortunate to enjoy this music. a sad mood.

[pascale698]

Cette composition de Chopin est simplement magnique ! Dans le fil "Le pianiste" elle est joué plusieurs fois et je ne m'en lasse pas = )

[danymexraptor]

thumbs up if you first heard it out the the Karate Kid!

[Izzy8u]

Hhaha i also heard ppl breathing, used headphones. Anyways, beautiful song, I also enjoy nocturne more w violin

[miguelaire]

esto es magia...

[DenaGroff]

Thanks to Nathan Milstein, we have this beautiful piece for the violin. I love it much better on violin than piano.

[308Karl]

Thumbs up!! :D

[BeyondBemazing]

two people that disliked are obviously stupid, lets just leave it at that -_-

[hafiyyanteh9797]

y mus everyone mention karate kid at this video??i found this song earlier 

[lilpatmoney32168]

this really makes me want to learn how to play the violin....such an incredible song.....absolutly love it! so wat i only know of it because of karate kid im 17 years old in the 21st century to much music to listen to to b able to acually pick this out of alll of it lol

[Dtiny4eva]

The two people who disliked this are imbeciles

[FDJabri]

whats the karate kid? i heard it from "the peacemaker"...listen to this while you enjoy a warm drink before sunrise with a cigarette.

[hafiyyanteh9797]

hey!! there's ppl breathing in this song...try u hear it properly using ur headphones or earphones

[namnetblevamanda]

found this from karate kid, så beautiful!

[MrGregorychant]

I feel so proud that I've known about this piece way before Karate Kid.

[hafiyyanteh9797]

han wen wen know how to play this =D

[nickoyize]

I'd rather MeiYing that this play, she is very beautiful.

[GhostPL2011]

I'm so proud to be Polish.

[bajasrfer]

beutiful..just a masterpiece

[rochi1996]

I love this song!

[saukingston]

essa musica é uma das mais lindas que eu escutei!

[lovebri2010]

I hate to brake it but that dude in the pic is hideous ... ik it was back in those days but ... EWW!

[Momiru159260]

@lovebri2010 Don't forget that the image in the video is merely an image, and not an actual photo. What do you find disgusting about it anyway? For many other people, it is the representation of one of the most amazing pianists in the world.

[chilenagringa27]

who cares if people found it in the karate kid... people have to find it somewhere!

[Jaggen22]

I cant stop listening to this.

[ricco1907]

if you are an actor or an actress and having a hard time crying on a scene. have this on your ipod you can keep up with al pacino or meryl streep...

cant explain but brings tears to my eyes each time i hear it.

[hairlessdoves]

that was just......(cant even describe it)

[TheAkonhater]

I find it amazing that i am only 16 and yet ive listened and can identify more classical pieces than my... older counterparts.

[themancdogg]

@TheAkonhater u must not be familiar with the female race.

[SuperTendril]

This sounds so much better with Strings than the piano as the violin have a special sad feeling when played

[pimpninja1985]

0:17 Shivers down my spine as to how powerful this piece truly is.

[norbette]

why does it bring tears to my eyes ewery time i listen to this song ?

[themancdogg]

@norbette cuz your a bitch

[veloboy1]

Indeed...I LOVE It

i never was really 'into' classic music but Requiem for a Dream - Clint Mansell is really nice also

but like...its so Lovely

and Perfect..

The Karate Kid(L)

[MsJarsofclay]

I've got a pretty large collection of Chopin's works. Made me fell in love with the violin. Masterpiece!

[torinlover1]

my mother used to play this on the piano or the violin for me, im glad she did its one of my favorites of Chopin

[CrypticAngel13]

2 people are tone deaf....

[aflowers6969]

I guess the Karate kid brought up all here....*sigh*

[quangnguyen249]

people who doesnt like this song must have problem with their soul! must be a killer!

[dneg1]

is any one have the violin music sheet for this?

[starrich55]

i love this song is very passionate and touching for me in the way.

[threeedots]

omg, i am almost teary eyed..

[quangnguyen249]

me 2! i founf it by the sondtrack of karate kid

[EQuaL1707]

almost all girl cry when watching karate kid in cinema..

even my gf..omg..

[lindan96]

I had heard it many years ago from a friends father who played Classical music all the time. Just heard it again in a small independent film called "Strangers in Good Company" and it was just full of the the classics. Absolutely beautiful, especially on piano alone.

[Alenilyel]

anyone know where could i find this sheet music for violin?? please, i really want to play it!!!

[Itaru67]

The point isn't where the music was found, but rather that it was found at all. Especially in an unlikely place when not being looked for, yet it made such an impression to send someone on a journey to find it. The fact that it is now appreciated and understood is what is important. Perhaps we should be thanking the Karate Kid for leading people to a piece such as this, that otherwise would have gone unnoticed.

[conos192837465]

For every one that has good taste but is stupid : This is NOT a SONG it is a PIECE.

[nygrafite1]

Contradiction^ ahahahhah

[chltmdwp]

i heard this piece before and used to play violin but after seeing karate kid, i finally got to know the name of this glorious piece!

[christopher1998robin]

buwaaaaaaa1! i'm gunu grurayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy "Bullul"

[michaelmyers43293]

This song is so beautiful and inspiring... It makes me wanna cry and dance to this marvelous tune.. What kind of person would dislike this?.. That 1 person who disliked this must have been crying so hard that his computer malfunctioned and clicked dislike... Because if the person clicked dislike, Then he has no taste in this heavenly music. When I die... I would like this song to be played.

[Preiyanka1]

@michaelmyers43293 u see what happened was dat person loved it so much that dey clicked the dislike button instead of like

[DICACIO1]

@michaelmyers43293 excellent request... but you'll have all eternity and beyond to learn it yourself and play it after your funeral ;)

[Katarriinaa]

I'm proud I didn't find this song because of the Karate Kid but because I love Chopin. It's amazing, but I like the piano version more though.

[lirihtco]

Hoooooooo Guys, This is Feeling and pure love

[ThePoet989]

Um, this song was actually in a movie in 2002 "The Pianist."

[Sarc37]

Fuck Karate Kid. Summer Glau danced to this on the Terminator TV show!

[mybuttface]

Where can I find the MP3 or what CD might I find this version? I only have the all piano version...

[MrOracleman]

This makes me wanna cry.....

[xGibsonx]

@MrOracleman Beat. The very last seconds of the song, though, give me the feeling of "Everything's going to be ok."

[BlackViper2404]

IT IS AMAZING!! the peace and the vibe that this song gives is something I've never found in a song... I feel like crying of too much peace :) I know, it sounds silly, but...it's just incredible...

[liwanag13]

my god! this song is so beautiful it makes me wanna die!

[cesar75006]

OMG you american people are retards, if it wasnt for a shitty remake of Karate Kid you wouldnt know about Chopin.. Its sad.

[sloppiexx]

and what's wrong with knowing it now?

You don't have to be so rude......

[scubasteve121212]

@cesar75006 don't be pissed your green card got denied!

[iMapleSyrupi]

@cesar75006 Way to generalize all Americans.

=/ I've known about Chopin since I started playing piano 7 years ago. Because there aren't millions of children who play piano and/or violin in the States that would know this piece........

If anyone's a retard, it's the people whining because they "knew of the piece before anyone else". Ween off the tit and get over it.

[suparichguy]

@iMapleSyrupi dats tru coz it waz composed in da 1800s so many ppl would kno b4 u would

[OFlute96O]

Just beautifull!

[MeliAlliz]

Simplemente... el mejor!

[TheMateuszek88]

it's amazing and magical song

[satosn]

The pianist - piano version

[satosn]

The pianist - piano version

[SmileyFerretFace]

Got addicted after I watched "The Pianist"..

Beautiful piece of music.

[akikokawaii]

could you please send me the mp3 of this one?'it's absolutely perfect

[WupeViasco]

the pianist and karate kid

[gicagica81]

outstanding:x..omg

[luweesz]

the most painful part of this piece is at 2:40... heartbreaking as it is... but it is as lovely as every other Chopin nocturne

[Tagapa1026]

While this sounds amazing on violin... I still think its better on the piano....

First heard this song on "The Pianist" which was an amazing movie

[Minoriash]

Like many other people, i found this song from "karate kid" and im so glad i did

[luweesz]

@Minoriash yep me too... i didn't even know that it could be arranged in violin... if then, i want to hear some fantaisie impromptu or op. 28 no. 4

[Minoriash]

@luweesz oh that would be just wonderful, now if only i knew how to play an instrument.. xD

[Rawyfurlong]

@Minoriash hahahaha me too!!

[rebostorm19]

@Minoriash its so awesome...

[chryssanthemum]

@Minoriash me too!!!! hail for chopin!!!

[wannabefit453]

@Minoriash hahaha

[aburningpromise]

@Minoriash very good! More people especially youngsters should listen to classical pieces.

[SammyMei]

@Minoriash ahahaha, same heree :D

[slayerfox2]

@Minoriash Gross!!! Chopin's work in that horrible movie!? ughh...

[anthonysprankle1]

@slayerfox2 it was in the pianst

[pcca333]

where can i find the sheet music for this piece ? (violin)

[njgothgirl]

Did anyone else notice that the little girl on Karate Kid wasn't actually playing? She was still in first position for the high note that should be played in third on the E.

[xodwnxo]

@njgothgirl yea i know! when i was watching thatw movie, i thought that it didn't look right~ (:

[atan132]

as soon as i listened to the girl in the karate kid, i felt the emotion and her facial expression in harmony with this piece. and it moved me by this beautiful song.

[sharializevanescence]

@atan132 me to,i was soo amazed,it was such a beautiful song

[ThrashSamurai]

It is sad that you have to watch Karate Kid to learn about this amazing piece.

[MuseFan288]

@ThrashSamurai i listen to a lot of great classical pieces. i also found this through the karate kid but hey its a great piece. whats wrong about classical music fans fining music through movies?

[DaTroublezWitLuv]

@ThrashSamurai Since when is discovering beautiful music sad?

[ashto]

@ThrashSamurai Its so true. Believe it or not, I have discovered a lot of great classical music from movies though. All my music theory classes play the same crap that we all hear all the time...its sad really.

[gicagica81]

@ashto @ashto when you have free time pass me to some song pls:x..because im a huge fan..of classical music..:x.thx.maybe i will show you some songs to

[doglyfe4444]

@ThrashSamurai It is sad, it's such a beautiful piece. Everyone should know about this.

[pimpninja1985]

@ThrashSamurai i agree.

[autumnfallrain]

@ThrashSamurai

Some kids don't have the privilege to grow up with music like this. You should feel lucky that Karate Kid introduced so many kids to it and that so many like it, as you now have a new group of people you can relate to and educate about music.

[int1901]

@ThrashSamurai batter late then never

[jquino]

@ThrashSamurai

Its a good thing! not sad... the more people learn about this beautiful piece the better in my opinion.....

[Roploop]

@ThrashSamurai

True that by the means by which they learn of it is bad, but it is a good thing that they learn at least learn of it.

[Baronstone]

@ThrashSamurai Some of us have known about it for decades.

[ThrashSamurai]

@Baronstone

My comment was originally directed towards a user who found this song watching Karate Kid.

It does not apply to others who knew of it before :)

[ET2K3]

@ThrashSamurai this is a great song from eternal sonata

[cr8tivitee]

@ThrashSamurai too true thats how i heard it too, if only the world had more taste in music

[doglyfe4444]

karate kid.

[princessmj15]

so amazing

[carenz91]

Imusiciki, i've been looking for this version of the nocturne no 20 for a long time, could you please send me this one? let me know , thank you so much :)

[leonardbest5]

Maravilloso!

[macciboma]

Musica sensibile di quel genio di Chopin. Grazie da Walter.

[donchisciotte62]

Listening Chopin is a wonderful way to end the day!!! Thanks Amy!!

[maldoror26]

[tubelover413]

One of my favorite and haunting melodies.
