[DamienTepps]

3 dislikes? I swear, people come to great works like this just to troll. How sad their life must be.

[MikaelaMacabre]

Does anyone know who the painting at 3:36 is by?

[CATcatCATwoof]

the pictures are moving, right?!

[innergothchick97]

@mooseofmibu I don't like any of them. I'm only 14 and I loce classical music.

[johnnyesquire1]

Gorgeous music...It truly caputes the romantic period of the early-mid 19th century.

[mooseofmibu]

[Dylanceck]

It brings tears to my eyes knowing that humanity can create something so beautiful, and then knowing why nothing else.

[emogirl3296]

So beautiful, words can never say quite what music can.

[summercures2]

Vkgoeswild plays this tune quite wondefully. Check her out on Youtube.

[streetgangtm]

I feel like I'm floating in my chair, and no I'm not high

[kingjstin]

@streetgangtm Yes you are. Just off dank music.

[MrRobbledobble]

does the quality of the instrument really matter when compared to the effect of a truly passionate artist?

[SuperGootman]

Amazing!

[yourmomlovesefron]

Does anyone know what the painting is at 1:08?!?!

[esacnitsuj1]

I had a very good friend who had a Steinway Concert Grand & I used to love & sit & play it, he live in a big A Frame house on the side of a hill & he'd open his sliding doors all the way at the front of the house & blast classical music he would play on his great sound system! This was in Doaktown New Brunswick & people didn't seem to complain :-)

THIS IS AWESOME! T/Y 4 THE UPLOAD :-)

[MCADJim]

@esacnitsuj1 Well when you have good taste in music, most people won't mind so much when you crank it.

[khawarismi]

Beautiful, absolutely beautiful

[matt2026]

don't you just feel incredibly privileged that we can all listen to this music at the touch of a button?

[ormewq]

@matt2026 Completly agree, thank you, i didnt thought about that.

[WaNNabePoEt]

@matt2026 Well said. :)

[wheelofsteelspinner]

no more porn...

[OfficeKitten2012]

This is lovely. I like Chopin!

[B876539]

The last time I played this piece was on a Stineway Grand that was worth over 80 thousand dollar's and it sounded so good. I usually don't have access to an instrument of this quality. Kinda gave me the shiver's. I'm not sure if it was because of the quality of the piano, or the thought of how much the piano was worth. The key action had such a good feel and the piano was tuned to a universal pitch. A lot of the piano's are tuned to a standard pitch.I guess standard pitch is 4 church music.

[ophelius111]

@B876539 I used to be the custodian at the Conservatory of Victoria in Canada and I had access to their concert hall whenever I wanted. I would go there at night and turn on a couple spot lights, sit alone in the large hall, and played on their concert Steinway for hours at a time. It was worth over 100 grand and I think it was the 2nd best piano in Canada. It felt like butter under my fingers. It made me sound more skilled and passionate than I really was. Especially with the amazing acoustics.

[B876539]

@ophelius111 You are so lucky to have had that much access to a Stineway Grand. It's not something you can get from Rent-A-Center.

[ConanJana]

@B876539 What is a universal pitch, what kind of tuning is that, are we supposed to know what you are talking about?



[54Gibe]

@B876539 Do you know that a brand new Steinway Grand Model D from Hamburg, Germany worth almost 200 000$... 80 000 is a bargain !

[maneatingtoilets]

@B876539 What is universal pitch compared to standard? I Googled without success.

[MrThreshold2009]

Fuck me this is good it actually fuckin hurts! The agony!

[FIREFIGHTERGIRL1111]

love this ! <3

[machimp34]

two thumbs up for ophelius111!

[machimp34]

3.14: Is that aivazovsky? Help me find out please!

[ophelius111]

@machimp34 No, I believe it's Willem van de Velde and the painting is called "An English Ship at Sea Lying To in a Gale".

[MrThreshold2009]

@paulbefc I dunno..... Cher Lloyd's "Swagger Jagger" was really, really brilliant.

[lu9thix]

polish proud

[radioheadlover100]

Is like he was playing the song with my heart :)

[gorgoroth4ever]

Badass chill song

[DUCKSmiiley]

isn't it incredible how classic music can touch your heart?

[247videos247]

I love the pacing the performer used in this piece.

[Firehearte]

This piece was rushed, especially towards the end. I was slightly disappointed that the performer didn't embrace the beauty of the piece.

[tobalcainalhambra]

@Firehearte He had to go to the wc

[CANAirforce]

@Firehearte I agree that the end seemed a little rushed... It felt like he was just "getting it done," rather than, as you said, embracing the piece's beauty. Where I disagree is in the darker, more ominous section in the middle, which I think he did excellently.

[emlmm88]

ah, i remember when my piano teacher first brought me this...incredible

[rotterdamme]

is touching my soul!!!

[kealyn1]

Simply fantastic.
