[Z03G]

i heard a few mistakes, but who cares! that was absolutely amazing (: wish i was a skilled as you are :\ thanks for making my day happy (:

[mistertomlinson]

What brand/model of digital piano are you playing? I'm gonna be buying one in the next couple of weeks (this is one of the first songs I plan to learn) and I was extremely impressed with the sound of. Please reply and thanks.

[Calderonia]

@mistertomlinson  That´s a Yamaha P70

[mistertomlinson]

One last question. Do you have any experience with Casio digital pianos? Could you compare the two? I had narrowed my choice down to the Casio PX 130. It has a lot of features similar to the higher end Yamahas (comparable to the P155)... that is until I saw your video and received your reply to my comment. The P70 has seen a few updates since it's release, including the P85, which is still on clearance at some sites and within my price range. It's just a little more than the PX 130. Any advice?

[mistertomlinson]

Thanks. I went with the updated model, P85. Paid about $600 with matching wooden stand and pedal assembly.

[luckystrikelive]

good!

[MrEbaby2010]

Your playing is charming although it is only played on an electronic piano.

[sonarfreq]

Very beautifully played... your naive style compliments the piece... thank you...

[MrEbaby2010]

Your playing is both charming and touching. When I tried to close my eye when listening to your playing, I thought if you were playing on an acoustic piano rather than an electronic keyboard. Thanks for sharing.

Your playing is charming adn touching. When I cloee my eye, I was thinking if you were playing on a piano, not an electronic keyboard. Thanks for sharing.

[Calderonia]

@MrEbaby2010 Thank you for listening

[MissStrawb29]

You play so beautifully! I love this song but can't get motivated to learn it - only know a wee bit of the beginning. The keyboard sounds amazing though, might have to get one of those.

[aidastereo]

Sigue tocando, lo haces precioso, yo me estoy aprendiendo la canción.

[analia1818]

it is super I love this song

[mikedumais]

LOVED listening to this. I greatly admire your talent!!! Keep at it.

[sonya1alex2]

this is beautiful, it took me a while to learn this! you may find it easier to play if didn't play so flat fingered as i noticed sometimes it looked like you struggled. i was taught to play on the tips of my fingers. (not a criticism by the way as this is really good). i love how expressive you were x

[sedmacedo]

beautifull, dear!

please, record this music again and try to overcome the few errors, because it's almost perfect! and i guess i can turn it perfect so!

please, dear, record it again... you are very expressive and, even with erros, yours was the best interpretation i've ever saw in youtube.

so, i have to congratulete u again. and beg: please, recordi it again!!! we all deserve you up to urself.

[leophoto2008]

you are really great !!!! congratulations

[BarnabasFolk92]

Hi I'M a beginner composer Barnabas Folk. If you like this music please listen to my compositions on youtube. They are short and minimalist piano pieces I hope you'll like them. Thank you!:)

[bcupcake]

that's pretty good... I noticed a very few mistakes but I ain't perfect either. How long did it take you to learn it?

[albixuelaa]

nunca dejes de tocarlo si realmente te gusta... yo estube estudiando piano durante 5 años... tal vez no es demasiado tiempo... pero lo he dejado pasar y todo lo que aprendí lo he ido olvidando... y ahora es cuando realmente lo siento...

[ariadne10194]

oye,nunca dejes de tocar el piano...se ve Qe te gusta y Qe sientes la musica,te felicito por esa increible interpretacion.

[saraamara]

Amazing!

[saraamara]

Amazing!

[nomocla]

una sensibilidad exquisita a pesar de los pequeños errores... No me canso de oirte tocar...gracias por compartirlo.

[Calderonia]

Gracias por tu comentario!

[JRafamaiden]

excelent velocity

[THEO145]

wonderful

[5735740]

amen

[texasinger2]

Pretty song...I had never heard it...I had actually never heard of the composer until I got a comment on my most recent video. I will have to check out those videos. Also, to fix those cracks that some are talking about, it will help to keep your fingers closer to the keys; it's more efficient and you won't have to work so hard :D.

[stoopidpants]

You play this song much better than many of the other posters, more feeling, just a few mistakes.  I think u need to practice this song until its impossible to make a mistake then it will be perfect, your feeling rivals nymans seriously dont let these stupid mistakes tarnish the song and your own ability. I say this with much respect; truly your version is amazing work out htese small kinks and it'll be flawles s:)

[einekleineblues]

I've been practising this piece for a wedding and I play a fully reconditioned Bechstein upright (c.1876). i had no idea how good it sounds until I heard this awful digital 'toy' on here. It really does does sound so muffled and dead compared with an acoustic instrument.  Nice playing, but all the right notes would have been a bonus!

Remember this old adage: An amateur practises until he/she gets it right. A professional practises until he/she can't get it wrong.

[akissgr1]

thank you.............

[tearsinraine]

wow.. great performance... very nicely played! the expressiveness of your playing really elevated the piece... thanks for posting

[expatbrummy]

Wonderful.. I agree about your hands looking young, they look like those of a child. How old are you? Bravo whatever your age.

[prona55]

[senzalmit]

Una joya, me encanta Nyman. Muy buena interpretación... FELICIDADES!!! Besitooooossssssss, ;0)

[zillyberlin]

your hands look quiet young, how old are you?

[jirihozpodebrad23]

i like how you adapt the pace to the soundtrack - there are some awful and way too fast versions here on youtube - i really like yours, it's similar to like when i used to be able to play this too:( very very good:)!

[s0fii66]

:) mui mui lindo

[doverzen]

MUY BUENO

[StillViolin]

5*****

[Paranoid061]

lol

[tigerdolphine]

perfect !!!

[jillymort]

I think you are very brave to perform this! I've practiced for a few months now to get it perfect and performed it a couple of times in public, and I understand the complexities of this piece, but YouTube?! Well done for putting it on here! You can tell that you enjoy this piece. The arpeggio thing at the end didn't work for me though!

[CailinCBC]

beautiful.

[jerdawg553]

Do you go to berklee school of music in boston?

[Calderonia]

I wish I were

[SophzBunton]

amazingly done

what kind of synth is that?

[Calderonia]

That's a Yamaha digital piano. The small one on top is just a midi controller. Thanks for your comment.

[SophzBunton]

thanks

[udon890]

@Calderonia : Midi controller ? ? What is the purpose of midi controller?

[Calderonia]

@udon890 Nothing in particular for this piece..Just a device I sometimes use to trigger some softsynths.

[adeadlyrapper]

LOve it nice playing!

[muppan85]

you very good. Ilove this song. Can youhelp me and play the song slow-motion? Tank you.kises

[rubys200777]

[xdanina28]

Very Very good, amazingly perfect, this song is my favorite of the soundtrack of this movie, Michael Nyman its amazing!

[Kharadan]

very well played...this video moved me to buy Micheal Nyman's songbook 'The Piano' (yeah, I play the piano, too). I guess it will take a while to learn this song and play it as expressive as you...carpe diem!

[marlest]

good job :) like this and will fav now.

[tigerdolphine]

nothing but respect for you! Hard work but you dit it !!! assomme !!!!

[lisa89montgomery]

Brillant...Any chance of a copy of the sheet music? or an idea where i could get it? thanks, keep up the good work!

[xxoliviaxx2]

I love the emotion you put into this! Its a beautiful peice... one of my favorites.

[778000]

There was this other guy that played it too fast. I have the music to this... never tried it, but you did a great job. I plan on working on it now. Played with great feeling

[AdondeVayas]

You're great!

Well done ;) slowly and beautiful.

[malalamirox]

[daniquevh]

MISTAKE at 1.27

[JPNesker]

I can't wait to hear what you've come up with.

Cheers!

Oh, and thanks for the comments. The girl is gorgeous, I agree...She's my girlfriend...I love her madly.

[JPNesker]

I think Michael Nyman, especially in his string quartets, is a master at big emotion. His music is achingly beautiful, without any of the esoteria that usually goes along with "modern classical". Here's a man who inately understands a good pop hook, like a cheap scare in a horror film, and knows how to use it. His best work marries the imeadiacy of pop with the space and elegance of piano-driven instramentals. Wonderful Stuff.

[JPNesker]

We want to show this warts and all; all the tensed musclulature, all the missed cues and forgotten steps. All the times Muscle memory invades and ruins new choreography. Most important to us to showcase the determination and verve of this one dancer overcoming all the nonsense to reach a kind of trancendental symbiosis with the music; that moment when the stars allign, the chords tug at the heart, and all is suddenly more than perfect in the world.

[JPNesker]

I'm sure your originals will be awesome...we should do something together. Originally, "The Process" was about just that, the process a dancer endures b/w rehearsal and show, or from conception to compleation.

[JPNesker]

We'd love to collaborate on something...licensing Nyman is well beyond our budget, methinks...

[anonymus88]

wow! i can't believe on what i am listening;S

this is AWESOME! keep working! you really have talent. and this is such a beautiful song. by the way, all songs from the film "The Piano" are pretty good! i found some sheets of it.

gosh I loooove piano's sound *-*

[Calderonia]

That's a cool feedback, cheers!. And yes! You're absolutely right about the piano soundtrack.

[JPNesker]

you're really good! Do you have any original compositions????

[Calderonia]

Thanks. I'm currently working in some projects that should be posted soon. By the way the video you post on your channel "the process (Demo Version) is one of the best esthetics things I've ever seen on youtube (the girl is also gorgeous). Keep on posting things like that one!!

[Darcinka]

I'm sorry,my English isn't very well:-)Yes,I mean the sheet music..Thank you..And you'r play is beautiful!

[Darcinka]

really beautiful!!

Where I can find this dots please????

[Calderonia]

Darcinka, I'm not quite sure what do you mean by "this dots". If you mean the sheet music, you'll find it easily on the web or in any sheet music store. Indeed, Nyman's soundtracks have become quite popular.

[sallahoofd]

very good.....thank you for giving me a few minutes of rest

[Calderonia]

Thanks for listening! I appreciate your comments...

[anmounm]

Brilliant! Some much feeling you seem to put into it! The tempo is excellent!

Well done!

[Vahnis]

You play it beautifully... There were some mistakes, but I would LOVE to play it the way you play it! =D

Congratulations ^^
