Hello! I produce piano recordings with minimal editing and maximum rehearsal to authentically showcase each performance.

🌊 - John Mayer | Piano Cover
I cycle through phases in my music listening habits, and right now I’m deep into a John Mayer phase, once again. Hope you enjoy this song as much as I enjoyed learning it 🌊

Remember Me (from Coco) | Jazz Waltz
มุมมอง 169หลายเดือนก่อน
Hey everyone! I’ve missed practicing, recording, and sharing videos with you this summer. Today’s song is "Remember Me" by Kristen Anderson-Lopez and Robert Lopez. Ever since I first watched Coco years ago, this song has been one of my favorites. There are already many versions of this song on TH-cam, so I decided to try something new by turning it into a jazz waltz. It was much more challengin...
Moon River (for Sandra) - Henry Mancini
มุมมอง 6553 หลายเดือนก่อน
Every now and then, I pick up the guitar and try to learn something new. I remember one of those times a few years ago when I searched for guitar renditions of my favorite song, "Moon River." I stumbled upon Sandra Bae's version after having listened to a few others, and immediately stopped looking further. Her arrangement was stunningly beautiful. Recently, I thought of the song again and trie...
L'amour, les baguettes, Paris - Stella Jang | Piano Cover
มุมมอง 3303 หลายเดือนก่อน
Une chanson trop belle de Stella Jang. Je l'ai découverte il y a à peu près deux mois et elle est vite devenue une de mes chansons préférée en français. Ce qui est vraiment fou, c'est que la compositrice n'est même pas une française native. Je trouve ça vraiment inspirant~ And yeah, to continue the sound quality story from my last video's description, I think my Zoom recorder is really having s...
A Night To Remember - beabadoobee & Laufey | Latin Piano
มุมมอง 5K4 หลายเดือนก่อน
My take on this super awesome Latin tune by beabadoobe and Laufey! Something weird happened to all of the recordings I did for this song that made them all sound super resonant. I think it was either my room's acoustics or my recorder (I hope not!!). Fortunately the best take (this one) is also among the least resonant so I hope the sound quality is ok!
Cinema Paradiso (Love Theme) - Ennio Morricone | Jazz Improvisation
มุมมอง 5975 หลายเดือนก่อน
Ciao! Questa è la mia interpretazione di un classico del maestro Ennio Morricone. Recording the improv section for this was tough because I tend to mess up when I also have to accompany myself (without a band). One day I would love to record this with a bassist, which would allow me to focus just on the improv. As it is right now, it's probably best looked at as a proof of concept. I also wrote...
J'ai 18 Ans - Rose | Piano Cover
มุมมอง 5176 หลายเดือนก่อน
My cover of this beautiful and deceivingly simple song by Rose. The main melody contains very few notes, which also means it can easily become stale if we're not careful. In the original recording, one way that Rose addressed this problem was by varying the rhythm a lot, which I also tried to do here. The song also feels to me like it's in 6/8, even though it's not. The lovely lyrics talk about...
Like The Movies - Laufey | Jazz Piano
มุมมอง 18K6 หลายเดือนก่อน
My arrangement of yet another future jazz standard by Laufey! It was pretty difficult to get right and I must have done a hundred takes to get this one (which is still far from perfect) On another note, I had my piano tuned! However, the technician must have also done something that left my sustain pedal really creaky now, which you can hear in the recording :( I will contact them again and hop...
How Deep Is Your Love - Bee Gees | Light Reharmonization
มุมมอง 3K7 หลายเดือนก่อน
Sheet music: www.patreon.com/posts/how-deep-is-your-111513480 My arrangement of this iconic song by the Bee Gees. Though I made up an ending for this recording, when I play this song by myself, I usually just keep playing forever because there's not really an ending in the original and it just creates a seamless loop.
Stop This Train - John Mayer | Piano Cover
มุมมอง 3007 หลายเดือนก่อน
There was a time in my life when I would just grab the guitar and play this song for hours on end. This is my attempt at recreating John Mayer's signature pluck and chuck style on the piano. On the technical side, I tried not to play too many notes at a time to better emulate the sound of a guitar. The left-hand part, though simple, was surprisingly difficult for me because it consists of repet...
Valentine - Laufey | Jazz Piano

My arrangement of this great song by Laufey. The first time I heard it I literally thought it was a jazz standard that I somehow had never discovered before. Sheet music: www.patreon.com/posts/valentine-piano-104104089

I love this cover, do you have any sheet? I can pay for it.
Hey! There's no sheet for this one yet, but it's on my todo list. So far I've only done "Valentine" and "Amore mio aiutami".
@@honestkeys Thnks, I just learned your Valentine arrangement and I liked it so much that my mind told me I had to play this one. both amazing arrangements, thank you very much!
This made me cry its so good seriously i wish i could play like that wow
Thank you so much! :) It always makes me really happy to hear that people connect to music emotionally
nahhh id die to see you do live perfomances 😩🙏🏻
Thank you! Hopefully one day!
I love all your videos, I'm here every time a new one comes out, and I loved this one too!!! <3
That means I won't have to worry about getting 0 views on my videos ^_^ so glad to have your support!!! 🙏🙏🙏
i love your covers!!
Yay thank you!!
Wow, really good job my friend!! Your piano sounds really cool as always, cant wait to see you play some Beethoven!^^🎸
Thank you! For now I think I can only focus on covers but never say never ^_^!
U literally make my favorite covers on TH-cam and have such good form good job and keep it up 👍
Thank you so much! I"m more of a theory/composition person so I've never actually been too confident in my technique xD
@honestkeys I know exactly what u mean cuz I'm also a really big theory and composition pianist, not as good as u but I still like to improvise all songs I learn and I've never been entirely confident cuz I always feel like there's more I could add or stuff to remove. But keep doing what ur doing it's incredible
@@richhernandez2441 always great to hear from people with the same background! Good luck on your musical journey too!
You should play bored by laufey, I think your style and song preferences would go perfect with it
It's a great song! Hopefully I can get to it at some point!
goes insanely hard
bros cookin, good luck
Thank you!
🔥
This is so good! And awesome you're playing by ear!
Glad you enjoyed it!
can i know the chords
It's a bit difficult to write a chord sheet for a solo arrangement like this because there usually are too many of them and sometimes the line between a chord and the next is not exactly clear. I hope you understand :)
These are not exactly the chords in the video (and yeah, as honestkeys said, it can always be a bit ambiguous where you draw the line between chords), but, by ear, it follows roughly this chord progression. Intro: Ebmaj7 (I) - Edim7 (#I) - Fm7 - (ii) Bbadd9#5 (V) Verse: Eb (I) - Bbaug (V) - Ebmaj7 (I) - Bbaug (V) Eb (I) - Gm (iii) - (Gbm) - Fm7 (ii) - Bb7 (V) Gm7 (iii) - C7 (VI) - Fm7 (ii) - C7 (VI) Fm7 (ii) - (you can optionally do a walk up from F - G - Ab - A - Bb here) Bb7 (V) - Bbaug - repeats.. (not exactly the same but it would take too long to write out the whole song..)
