[melaladi]

... and all memorized

[NuchiPeanut222]

do you have an mp3 out? i would love to buy it

[roflspaz10]

Out of the thousands of other videos, this one sounds the most fun to play. All the others are way to slow

[transtead]

BRAVO!

[ComradeNu]

Zamelchyatelno... wow. You did this piece justice.

[SoJustCool]

I hate you. I hate you because you are so perfect. lol

[YaNivid]

Just love their job and do not try to prove anything to anybody (except himself). A well-made work says about you much more than pretty words. The more so because the language of music is much richer than the language of words. If you really want to speak this language, you will be able, in spite of all difficulties and obstacles. Good luck, patience and inspiration!

[kristineliede]

i'm 15. and i'll play this at exam in october.(i hope so because tomorrow i'll need to prove my teacher that i can play this.she absolutely loves classic so i'll need to try hard to prove myself.) i think you are amazing. i'll learn from you :D you should be proud of yourself ;) my english is bed, i know. greetings from Latvia

[bludelight]

Dude, you are a freakin' genius! I love this song and your execution reminds me why I love a genuine pianist. Amazing, truly amazing.

[darain123]

This piece is BEAUTIFUL enough as it is. You played it SOOO AMAZING. Like I almost cried. That's all I can say :D AMAZING job :D

[BizzaroKiller]

NODAME!!!! X3

[mihonaka1018]

I love your Rhapsody in Blue Best!! I have been practicing this piece for about a year now, along with other pieces(classical). I am more classic piano person so it is taking ages for me to read the score.

Anyway, I hope I can play like you someday!

Thank you for the lovely music!

[ronrino5]

how many pages into the song?

[MeteorMan05]

@ronrino5

About 30 actually. :)  Crazy note placement too.

[mcgoergl]

you are plaing very well ...

BUT (ca. 7:30 )gershwin is NO jazz

this is he would never play it like this

[VinceRunza]

@mcgoergl Gershwin was rejected as a student by instructors in classical composition such as Nadia Boulanger and Maurice Ravel because they were "afraid that rigorous classical study would ruin his jazz-influenced style." Wikipedia says so -- it HAS to be true!

[gokan69]

Fantastic ! but i prefer the original :)

How many months you took to play that at that level ?

[FatLou94]

it's FANTAAAAAAAASTIIIIIIIIIC  =D =D =D

[MrBrinkley123]

This sounds AWESOME!!!!!! I just bought the music for this piece and I check this video if I can't figure out a part!!! This is amazing!!! Was it hard to learn?!?!??

[theHighlyClassified]

This is absolutely fantastic! I'm going to learn this piece. (: Thank you so much for providing this wonderful work of talent

[mojess19]

Dude!!!!! You are like a piano god!!!!

[ronrino5]

@mojess19 he is the piano god!!!!!!!!!!

[donmoffittsmith]

I don't know what to say. This was spellbinding. So well played and such a great selection of contents. The music I have is almost but not quite the same. If only I could get your music. Better yet, if only I could play it like you. Thankyou.

[YaNivid]

Thanks for the comment, glad you enjoyed it. Unfortunately I do not live recordings. In a live performance that sounds much more interesting. If you are interested in scores, in the annotations to the video is a link where you can download them. There are 3 different options. My edition is only a litle modification of the original solo version.

[SnazzyPiano]

Really neat performance.  Enjoyed it lots. Jerrye

[eligarf]

thanks for the inspiring performance

and the link to the sheets

An amazing beautiful version. I enjoyed every note! Thank you!

[crazypianolady]

Great version, I think this is going to be my next project!

[xKurogashi]

awesome performance. but, what's in the background? a giant wallpaper?

[YaNivid]

@xKurogashi

It is a hall of the Kiev Ukrainian Academy of Dance where I work, on a background ballet scenery.

[Lionel1973Lh]

thanks for posting this video...wonderfully played...do you have the soft copy of the piano scores ?

[crazypianolady]

@Lionel1973Lh Hi there, I have sheet music if you want a copy? Just send me a message with your email address on and I can send it :-)

[FireStorm4056]

The song is amazingly well played, and your transitions are virtually flawless. Well done.

[xliborob]

Kolya, ja vse esche pod vpechatleniem posle togo proshlogodnego zimnego dekabrskogo vechera, kogda ty proigral mne tvoj luganskij koncert. Spasibo za to chto zapustil na youtube. Ja iz-za tebya syuda teper' tozhe zaregistrirovalsya. Dolzhen budit' Lesya, a to on sadik prospit. Ja projdus' esche po vsemu. Lere privet. I Sofii konechno!

[artymowycz]

excellent interpretation. this is one of the very few video's that i watched from beginning to end of this piece.

[marivillela]

same here! AMAZING!!!

[YaNivid]

No, tutorial video at me is not present. And hardly it will help. I will tell to you as the professional pianist that this play is difficult enough for execution and if you not too well own a piano it is not necessary and to try to play it. However I met some fragments in the simplified statement on the European musical sites. But where exactly I do not remember. I have only notes original solo versions and one more in someone's arranging, I still yet have not printed my edition entirely.
