  • Edward, is this your own arrangement, or are you playing a published version from memory? Always a pleasure to learn math and music from you.

  • @xander55577, thank you for your comment. It's my own arrangement, to some extent pre-determined and to some extent improvised. That is the case with all my 110+ piano videos except for two Beethoven selections from his piano sonatas, in which I have striven to be as faithful as possible to Beethoven's note-for-note and phrase-for-phrase intentions.

  • Edward, you're such a delight... Seriously, my heart just melts when I am in your company. Thanks cosmos, for youtube :-)

  • I remember hearing this song (I think) when I was a wee lad. :D Thanks for sharing.

  • Thank you for sharing this with us, Edward. This is one of my favorite songs, in one of its many incarnations. Melancholy and evocative. You did yourself and the world a favor by buying yourself that piano - and by using YouTube to share your talent with us.

  • I've always liked the evocative power of that song. I never heard a version of it that didn't produce a strong sense of sad longing.

  • Henry VIII was credited with writing this piece. I'm not sure if that is legend or truth but it is wonderful and beautifully played.

  • Everyone should learn a second language.

    Music is an excellent second language.

  • Thanks Edward

    This kind of thing never goes out of style.

  • Singing this in church this morning with my lovely French choir....as an atheist! Music is music!
