Edvard Grieg - In the Hall of the Mountain King - Piano

[AIMonnickendam]

iT'S SO CATCHY

[Water1ification]

I am playing this on the piano and it is now my FAVORITE song! P.S. I'm just a kid and it is SO easy to play

[swagggurl300]

awesome song x3

[oxygen117]

this is by far the best one ive heard on youtube

[Delphannesa]

This is a total masterpiece, which sounds in my head even when I am asleep ;)

[CirqueDuFreak122]

Beautiful piece of work :)

[epictorres]

So cool

[duncanbug06]

awesome

[lpf173]

My cat just walked in perfectly with the music.

[MonakoBoy]

This makes me think of minecraft

[adebtortomercyalone]

Kinda like classical halloween music, Cool.

[Halonerdful]

@adebtortomercyalone Toccata Fuge D-minor is classical Holloween music.

[HarmoniousKeys]

I like this interpretation of the song a lot, but the beginning started out just a bit too fast in my opinion.

[TheBrewforbreakfast]

What plays his guitar while being chased by pumpkins and a Troll AND trying to have an orgasm...... no shit!

[2001roserose]

Keith Medley plays this on his 27 string guitar!

[Juurivampire]

es genial! amo esta cancion:) muchas gracias por subir el video :) y tambien es genial la persona que toca el piano :)

[tigerlilly2712]

@madnessFromMars a piano duet?! How about a piano ensemble! I was at a piano convention and they had like, ten pianos all playing this song. it was epic.

[codyahernek]

this song sounds like a pumpkin. I LOVE IT.



[tigerlilly2712]

@codyahernek haha... what?!

[codyahernek]

@tigerlilly2712 ahaha i don't know, whenever I hear it I think of pumkins.

[YouAllredyKno]

@codyahernek hahaha like jack o lanterns?

[codyahernek]

@YouAllredyKno hahaha no just regular pumpkins. 

[Luquazable]

It started up too fast! It's suppose to start up slow to build the tention. Peer Gynt (from the play) is stealthing through the Mountain King's chambers. It's when he gets spotted by the trolls it's supposed to be more upbeat tempo. Anyway,very greatly played.

[HarmoniousKeys]

@Luquazable Completely agree with you there.

[TheVmdl]

This is an Elephant Stampede!!!

[MadnessFromMars]

so much better in piano duet.

[nofalweirdo]

i would travel the whooole world to find a concert that bethoven , mozart , and edvard grieg playing together

[WEISSKRAFT]

she never got away, no-one will ever defeat us!!!!!

[gutiercatacracker96]

it's the best song classic. edvard grieg is the best!!

[Brajan93]

Best version ever!

[WatchmenDrManhattan]

Always when I read the Hobbit & get to the part white the Elven King I thin of this song.

[liettutis]

Epic

[JohQx3]

Tempo is crazy lol =P Start should be played slowly, increasing speed all the way to the end :P

[F14Lolcat]

@JohQx3 And the start should be something like ppppppppppppp

[mrisump]

I personally prefer the version with a slower start..

[vladmakarov100]

cool i wish i could play like that on my trumpet

[Padusic]

Norway!

[melaladi]

brilliant!

[k0ptelefoon]

This sounds better than the whole orchest playing.

[greenmatrix151023387]

sounds amazing on the piano

lovely

[butargh]

Such an incredibly brilliant piece, and wonderfully played.

[axelle12anubis]

this is = baby,baby, come to me, come to me, come to me, Baby, baby, come to me cause I just want you now!

[axelle12anubis]

this is = baby,baby, come to me, come to me, come to me, Baby, baby, come too me cause I just want you now!

[TheRandomShadow]

6 people are jealous that they can't play piano as well

[Noxord]

Can somebody tell me, where to get the Piano sheet from :)?

[MarcoPinn]

@Noxord Search "Cantorion" on Google... Open the first site and paste "Peer Gynt Suite No. 1

4. In the Hall of the Mountain King (piano solo)" into the search bar at the top right =)

[jokerhong123]

i love htis song but i always mess up at 1:50 ...

[OrionoftheStar]

This song got me started with loving classical music when I was in elementary school. Thank you, Edvard Grieg, for so enriching my life! I owe my music major to you!

[moscito93]

spooky :))) 

[Jaffapullo8D]

this is just so awesome, I can't even explain jow good it is :D <3

[4n6oracle]

i just absolutely love how it escalates and escalates!

[Fluvius123]

Master!

[frididjurhuus]

This does sound pretty good, but it really needs a bigger orchestra.

[Brajan93]

Most beautiful song ever! ^^

[TheClutzQueen]

halloween song!!! it's so awesome! xD i agree with @Savvvylee !

[th00negative1]

hahaha this song is so epic i want to get this for piano. where can i print it out for free?

[botabara80]

Jo likes

[ThePredatorFan]

im playing this song right now, its hard but im only 13 :s

[TheWanderingNight]

I think this could be 'larger', but that's probably just the piano, not the pianist.

[surviverfromLOGIN]

@TheWanderingNight it could be, specially if you added more twenty pianos... and pianists

[TheWanderingNight]

@surviverfromLOGIN Well of course, but I'm talking more of a self-contained largeness - 20 people are of course 'larger' than one quite fat person. Musically, I'm comparing this to Rachmaninoff's prelude in C-Sharp Minor, or even G Minor. This arrangement just sounds more 'individual' than I reckon it should.

[gradualci]

mp3iffy is the best site to get this mp3. google mp3iffy.

[WebShannon]

That was beautiful!

[AllTriadHexachord]

Obviously not a Steinway concert grand piano. Why do people spend their money on cheaper pianos. If more people bought Steinway concert grands then Steinway would have to make them slightly more affordable due to an increase in demand. If more people bought better pianos then bad pianos wouldn't exist because of low demand. That would mean that good pianos would become more affordable by default.

[52NANO]

@AllTriadHexachord wish that were true, but wouldn't more demand shift the demand curve to the right, thus making it more expensive? haha. just a side note on this wonderful interpretation.

[GM572]

This is the most EPIC song for a Nazi zombie chase :D .....

[NeverTakeMyTaco]

@GM572 DEAD SNOW REFERENCE lol thats a great movie and that scene fits perfect with the movie! good job on the song Celsius06 

[markussalva]

@GM572 you need a life.....

[platypusesrock11]

@GM572 DEAD SNOW!!!!!!!!! x3

[NorwegainGirl22]

@stefancobra the notes are G A B C D B D..... i don't know the rest.

[cheezdoodle96]

@MegaSexiPoo

If you google mp3ify and click the first link, then click download ( you download a program called youtube downloader) and you can just copy the youtube link your on, paste it on youtube downloader and then it will download the song =)

[seanchristopherfranc]

@MegaSexiPoo get the whole peer gynt suite

[goobi23]

this is great i only found this song because i listen to the techno version

[xxxsammyleexxx]

i love that song!!!

[David578593]

music sheet anybody??? (for free...?)

[Delluvian]

@David578593

It can be found on Wikipedia, in the article about this piece. It wouldn't work if I put the url in here, so just go to Wikipedia and search for "In the Hall of the Mountain King".

[wowgeeek]

ftw

[singingmuse]

hé, this is exactly the version I'm trying to play. Great song, it tickles my imagination.

[bug1594]

this is amazing..

would anyone know where i might be able to find a version like this in sheet music?

[Sanitoeter666]

Very nice interpretation!

Grieg is a really great composer, and whoever plays this is insane too.

[Minwolv]

O.O pure radiating happiness and my jaw is dropping to the floor....... SO AWESOME!!! EEEEE!

[NorwegainGirl22]

@Minwolv

Yh! :)

[Strawberry16x]

I wish I could favourite this over and over again. I just ADORE Grieg, and this is just... words cant describe it. It's fabulous.

[ToontownMad2605]

Phwaaaa. Wow, fast fingers xD

[EvilLamas]

love this tune!

[MissSugarPlums]

I am trying to make a song out of this so if i get famous( i freakin wish so.) This will be one of my hit single ( i hope!!!!)

[onewingedangelhli]

Trying to make a song out of this?

This is a song

and if were to "make a song out of this"

It'd be a blatant rip off?

[MissSugarPlums]

I think i know that... and mind your business i was just saying dosent mean i am ok?

[SuperZephry]

do you know where i can get sheet music?

[Gulag4Ever]

No, sorry. But I know a lot of places where you can get shit-music.

[deinteil23]

In band we're learning how to play this song. We definately can NOT get it this fast.

[ItsCamiKazem]

Wow! Amazing! I can't keep the same speed in the middle though. I tend to go slower :S

[lovexandxberry]

This peace is the best!!!!!! I love this song! playing this song while closing my eyes takes me to a scary and haunted hall of a huge castle of the mountain king.

[Savvvylee]

This makes me think of a playful yet scary troublesome animal. So awesome XD ♥

[epoose]

@Savvvylee like domo kun

[timathieus]

@Savvvylee a kid?

lol

[JasperAmaranth]

@Savvvylee  playfull, scary, troublesome.. you MUST be thinking of a fox :3 lol

[CarbonChickenFilms]

I'm learning how to play this now. I have the main part down pat...I just need to learn the right hand. But it's going to take lots of practice to get to this tempo level. D:

This is my favorite piece, hands down. I found it through Apocalyptica when they did it on cello.

[shadowsgirl4vr]

did you do this cause this is really good! I want to play the piano now!

[nicholo05]

amazing music, composed just for the mountains...

[kimslimjim]

The triplets. Amazing.

[GolfernOJ]

love norway

[sawbloodprincess]

ALTON TOWERS THEME :P

[republicangamblers16]

nice crescendo

[CenturyGamer]

Funny music lol, i used to hear this sort of thing all the time as a kid but never knew the names of it :P

[uzemakistyle]

@CenturyGamer lol me 2, my father use to play this all the time....and well yeah other pieces to, now we know...now we know........(mithchel and webb) now we know

[1dannymax]

[xXwolfdudeXx]

[door233]

Btw nice playing

[door233]

Nice i am playing the same song currently and it is pretty darn hard!

[louisandtamsin]

Me too, just can not work out the fuckin triplets bit >:(

[Usci92]

Wow, that's awesome.

[ozturkbe]

im playing this song rite now. after 1:12 i struggle because i mess up the rhythm. this really must be the perfect version of the piece.

[psicofreak667]

I've also been trying to teach myself to play this song, and I'm having trouble in the exact same place. It's those eighth note on triplets sections that mess me up.

I can't play it any of it anywhere near as fast as the guy in this video though.

[DieMikrowelle]

@ozturkbe

pretend it's a wave... 

[wowgeeek]

@ozturkbe Agreed.

[ljoekelsoey4]

who did this transcription to piano?

[pusekatt83]

I'm impressed, this is way better than I expected! :)

[PIG1454]

im pretty good at it, i mess up sometimes and i dont have a really hard version of it, but its ok:)

[lilm2k8]

this song is impossiblr to play on piano omg its so hard i can play the basic tune which is.

ABCD ECE D#BD# DA#D

ABCD ECE AGECEG

[PattehPatrick]

I have a ridiculously easy version of it.

Whenever I play it, it makes me sad.

I honestly wish I had the real version.

=/

I want to learn it so badly.

[stevey226]

I have the real version played here, contact me if you'd like it =]

[ljoekelsoey4]

thank you

[kriss4176]

Detta ær jo ein Norsk Sang

[sweetie4pie]

oh man, I've been learning to play this song.

It's so hard :(

[iownage4youi]

Lol its like he have 4hands

[nicholo05]

well, grieg made a transcription for four hands.

[isuezu]

i like how the song sounds kinda negative abd stuff, like a cool song at some....uh.....well, i dont really know...

[Sgtstrikerx]

Starting from 0:47 and on, there's another key or something added into it. Is that for left hand or right hand, I cant really tell. Can anyone help?

[Kaiser325]

No for the piano transcript it is perfect

[BadBuddhaBoy]

It's for the left hand... I got the key from the library, but it's kind of difficult...

[supermanalexk]

Left hand. Melody stay in the right hand in the same key i believe. i may be wrong though.

[pogogeek24]

Right hand... It mkoves to bass cleff and emidietly back to treble... But I think it stays in A minor

[jackm7127]

holy fucking crap, marcato!

that was awesome..so clear...and the triplet section! fantastic! a winner is you!

[Kaiser325]

Truly amazing and that triplet part is SO HARD I have been messing with it for two weeks and I haven't got it! The lame part is I have the rest of the song as well as this...

[lacs1988]

uma performance muito boa.

[robwired]

I just found the music to this that I downloaded from Musicnotes months ago. Got it out to sight-read, wanted to hear the grace notes at the end, did a search, and here it is. Thanks!

[xxlamaxx1]
