Arvo Pärt - Spiegel Im Spiegel

[Punkrock1807]

don't mind that its not a 1000% perfect.

The way you do it is just right and deeply touching. Performing it with your voice singing the melody makes so emotional.

Just doyourself one favour: Go for a better mic or set the range of it, it kind of distorts from time to time.

Except this: Wonderful. "praeclare et egregie"

[sherwoodbreedrough]

felix, you keep at it; i loved this...arvo part is so wonderful, and so are you!

[SondraHarnes]

Very nice singing. Excellent voice with wide range. Emotion is coming through. Perfect transition from low to high to falsetto and back. Are you a professional singer...or have you studied with a classically trained voice teacher?

[felixkemp]

@SondraHarnes

Not yet. One day soon I would like to study singing properly. It's just a matter of finding the money for the lessons! Glad you enjoyed the video :)

when was listnening to this I wanted to kill a mosquito.I couldn´t.....

music is a sound of universe and love

[cloudillusion]

I laughed at your dressing gown at first. Then I cried. My mum used to play beautifully but she started going deaf and doesnt play anymore because she cant hear tones, I would love for her to be able to hear this.

[felixkemp]

@cloudillusion Thanks for your message. I can do better than this now - I have been practising :)

[stefanodeimatti]

[mmcoopstar]

[taibutaibu]

Wow. That really was something completely different... you surpirised my socks off there. Awesome job.

[yourforte]

I enjoyed this; very brave of you to perform it like this.

[shnimmuc]

The most boring piece I have ever herard. It bring the dry eye twitching not tears. Wake up people.

[fatheroblivion45]

Excellent job ny friend. I enjoyed this.

[AmateurViolinist]

I think it was pretty cool how you sorta hummed it. The tempo seemed just a little unsteady.

[Riveriya12]

Hi! I love your interpretation. Have you got the score of this piece?

[themindbenderrx]

[teresagabriel]

[alavora]

thanks!

[francello75]

[MGDANCEMG]

It is beautiful, as is your playing and the vocalise of the cello. All the best!

[teresagabriel]

that's really beautiful :)

[simonniebel]

actually i just joined youtube to comment on this one. my words may be to poor to really express how i feel about it; still, i have listened to "original" performances of it,. you know the ones with flute... but i never came across a more thrilling one than yours! and i deeply thank you for this! mr. pärth should feel utterly flattered about it!

thank you!

[felixkemp]

That's such a kind comment thank you for saying so. I am very touched. Forgive the flat and dodgy notes in the voice - I can do better

[simonniebel]

oh, i am sure you can; but actually the sound of your piano beeing, how do you say? overmonitored or something, combined with your, as you put it, "flat and dodgy notes" in the voice is probably why it feels so intense to me. i have no idea what mr. pärth had in mind when composing it, but to me it is song of utter longing, grief and frailty...

your interpretation really nails it!

thanks again

Most classical pianist can´t sing!... you do a great job to be able to play and sing this heavenly piece.

[banjgoboy24]

Thanks for the reply, Appreciated, HAVE A GREAT, MUSICAL NIGHT AND ALWAYS BELIEVE IN YOURSELF.

[banjgoboy24]

I thank you firstly, for your honest heart felt version of this beautifull passage of music. Your hair is sticking up at the back, you have a rabbit on your bookshelf, your high notes are a little suspect but I love the honesty in your performance. Thank you and keep being real. Well done.

[felixkemp]

Thank you for your comment! The hair and the top notes? It was 9am, and I'm in my dressing gown. I'd found the score in the library rather hoping it to be Fratres, but turned out to be this Grade One violin piece. Glad you enjoyed it! x

[stevtomato]

Singing it and playing it! What an awesome idea! :D And nice playing too. Too bad my singing is too bad for this lol

[mousehsin]

yes.This is nice.Beautiful voice and melody.Tempo is nice.good feeling.

[SeanPerrin]

Thought it was a tad fast... then the voice came in and I understood why.

Interesting because I thought of performing it for voice recently but wondered if it was possible! Great work (check out mine for clarinet!)

[custardsocks]

This is beautiful, I have never heard anything quite like it
