Scott Macintyre plays "Chopin - Nocturne in E Minor" American Idol Contestant

[klewis9995]

3 people are justin bieber fans and don't know what real music is.

[bsd300d]

Uh, tempo is falling off a cliff at several points.

[chgurlsng]

@bsd300d That is called rubato and is one of the reasons why Chopin is famous. :)

[lucyethelmaypotter]

[gcortez81]

Nice! *claps hands*

[narisabcd]

omg. he's truly gifted :')

[Lawrencelovespiano]

An American Idol Contestant performed this on 100 Huntley Street? This interpretation is very nice! I love it.

[PDLaChance]

Beautifully played! A Nocturne should have that relaxed evening feel. Like music that it floating down the hall just after everyone settles in for the night. You captured that feeling perfectly. Well done!

[corazonbrigida]

he's a great pianist. his music is very expressive

[friendstothebecster]

How brilliantly played and perfectly dreamy

::sighs::

Scott, this is truly just the beginning for you! ♥

[pbnaguna1]

One of my faves Chopin Nocturnes - thanks, Scott.

[Balkyzag]

The entire family is amazingly gifted.

[SHINETOTHEWORLD]

[moimoiuro]

[kellypolld]

I am sitting here, wiping tears off my neck... Thank you Scott for sharing your talent with the world. God bless you.

[MichaelBradus]

lol

[donteatxthat]

One of my favorite composers music being played by a former student of my father. Lovely.

[princessskyway]

Proof and a total display of God given talent AND grace. Brings heartfilled tears to my eyes.

Love Scott .

Going to see him in the A.I. concert in Kansas City, Mo. Can't wait!! Cathy ( in Nebraska/USA)

[csereix]

Scott: i wish you much success in life! You have taken your challenges and turned them into opportunities.

[Nandee7]

And if Simon let Scott stay? The next week was Quentin Tarantino MOVIE week!

Red carpet and WATCH the premiere of 17

so what was Scott going to do?

Simon did not save Scott because he cramped the 'idol' agenda.

Simon dissed him for a reason, he was in the way of the million dollar money making machine American Idol agenda.

[zoczm]

Brilliant!

[icyharris]

His talent is definitely in the piano. I always thought that his playing was better than his singing. Plus, I listened to some of the music he's composed. Based on that, this won't be the last we see of him!

[loalynne]

And are you blind???

[nikkim15]

Scott was too good for American idol! They cudnt keep up with his talents!!!! I LOVE U SCOTT!!!!

SCOTTIE HOTTIE HEHE!!!

he is amazing!!!!!<33333

[Radazzle8]

Scott is absolutely a genius.  I love it.

[dziedzic2009]

AI is about singing talent. Scott doesn't only have singing talent, he has the real "musical" talent. I agree, he is too good for AI. There is a lot more of Scott that people watching AI do not see.

Scott made history on AI. I'm proud of him....

[mdgrean]

Scott is too Good for 'Idol' Simon wants to crank out 'pop idols' that 'sell' !

Whats the matter Simon- was Scott holding up production of your million dollar commercials?

Cramping the stage numbers to adjust for his blindness?

So many great Britts and we get ARROGANT GREEDY Simon to come here to put down people to make his Millions! I am so sick of Simon! He can't appreciate music outside of his limited mind.

Simon you made your millions off being rude to Americans, now Go HOME!

[VicSim1976]

Genius... He's too good for Idol anyway..

[Janessah2]

I was so sad to see Scott go, I routed for him since he started. I cried so much when he was let go. I think SIMON should've been the one to go. Keep on with your dreams some day you'll make it. This comes from someone who is visually impared just like you. LOVE YA

[live2sing16]

2 words: absolutely amazing!

[Scottbest9]

can believe he left! He was better than everyone! Except Danny and Adam. WEll he wasnt worse then adam and danny but he was the same! Bout i cried my heart out for him!

[BSBFAN2007]

SCOTT IS AMZING

[DWF321]

i love you scott NEVER QUIT YOUR DREAMS

[KrystleBlueWaves]

Sweet Scott! You are beautiful and amazing and you deserve SOOOO much more than what Idol can offer you! Can't wait for you to put out another CD....I'm first in line!

[FoxTreatment]

Beautifully done! Scott has such great tone and he is so expressive.

[SexyJessi09]

Bravo!....classic music..... never gets old..lol

[shannieannie]

GO SCOTT!! :)

wow. this is amazing.

he's definitely my favorite Idol.

[loul06]

Bravo Scott ! You are wonderful!! I am a pianist, and I know how much talent you have .....keep going you are the BEST

[KittyKins57]

He's fantastic! He's my favourite on American Idol. He is an outstanding musician and I hope some day I will get the chance to see him perform in person.

[SourCreamsicle]

scott may not be the best vocalist, but he is an absolute genius at the piano. my breath is taken away listening to him play. if there were an "american pianist" competition he would be the star. :)

(and such a cute boy too!!!)

[100huntley]

Thanks for the correction to the title Xeimora418.

[Xeimora418]

uh... ur welcome :) but that wasnt me... its my dad on my account. ive never seen this video before. he's really big on piano. i dont no why he bothered to say that. i find scott very inspiring.

[Cherries113]

he inspired me to learn how to play the piano, he is an amazing singer/musician

[Vampiregirl2232]

Wow he is an insperation I play piano and wow I look up to him

[lanzjoshua]

I am dumbfounded, astounded, amazed, bowled over with this remarkable, incredible, wonderful bundle of mind, heart and talent!

[ivetnieks]

wow - amazing. Even for not blind pianists Chopin is difficult to play but Scott - u are amazing!!!

[TurtwigProductions]

And hes blind.. but this music is beuatiful

[jakyramirez]

Wow very inspiring!! I hope he can make it to the Idol '09---jaky from philippines..

[KittyKins57]

He's incredible!!

[bibliophile4jesus]

That was exquisitely done! May God continue to pour out his blessings on him!

[sonata102182]

nothing in your life is arbitrary scott, you walk on this earth for a reason.

your sight may be filled with nothing but darkness, but you brought light to so many people with your music "your talent, your passion."

love you much...God bless you always!!!

[BabyMelly]

Finally somebody with a nice message. I'm so sick of reading all these "oh he's just getting pity votes" messages, it's all rubbish. The man is talented and most blessed! I feel almost EMBARRASSED that he (who can't see) can play better than me. Must be a wake up call.

[natattack4]

hmm it was a good performance, a little too much rubato in some places but nonetheless expressive :)

but what relevance does this have to american idol? is this actually on the show or an unrelated performance?

[schalkeku]

He is amazing! Maybe he's not perfect, but he tries!! And he did it!! He got into th top 36 ! I bet he's also getting to the top 12! <3 Never give up Scott!!!!

[ocakearto]

What do you mean by maybe he's not perfect but he tries? This is a beautiful performance

[ctti]

Nobody's perfect but everyone tries, albeit in varying degrees. Scott's just a very talented pianist & singer & he's doing what he does best, so kudos to him. :)

[9Ladiz]

i love him!!! wish he could win american idol..

hmm..at least top 5..^^

[Ista1008]

glorious.

So sweet.

[joant1221]

Awesome, amazing, inspiring, etc...

As Paula Abdul would say "You took a song that is going on 200 hundred years old and made it your own!"

Chopin would be proud.

[mikoj1223]

OMG!!! He is AMAZING!!!

[Chaiina]

He's amazing!!!

I admire him and may God bless him!

[zignchris]

He really inspires me. May God truly bless him above and beyond what he could possibly imagine or think. Amen.

[gcchick890]

this guy is amazing!

he has really inspired me

[glenputranto]

awesome!!!!!!

[ernestrey]

one of my favorite pieces of chopin and scott delivers it perfectly
