I don't know a thing about piano, but I remember Peter Nero from the beginning. My mother always said he was one of the few with a 'strong left hand' and she loved him immensely. I can remember him on the Ruth Lyons show in Cincinnati in the early 60's.
The ever so slight pause, a hesitation is extraordinary and i cannot fathom one not rendering one self to completely surrender and become lost in this soulful melody.
He has influenced my thinking. Especially about piano music. I still have about 45 of his 33 1/3 record albums. Back in 1981, when our daughter was a baby, I visited him and his daughter and his business manager in the Green room after one of his performances. I gave him one of those new stereo tape players when they first came out. I still have the thank you letter he sent me on his personal stationery. I have visited him in the Green room on several of his performances. When my daughter (that is her in the photo) was about 4 years old, 1984, I had to take her with me to a performance he was doing at UCLA. She would not let me leave the house without her. He was touring with Mel Torme and Leslie Uggams in the Great Gershwin Concert. We met in the Green room after the show. Mr. Henry Mancini, who was also one of his fans was there. He even scolded me for keeping my daughter up so late. Justin
I too, remember this great album. This is probably the best version I've ever heard of this song (with or without lyrics). Nero's piano style brings out all the wistfulness that this tune evokes.
Peter is my all time favorite. Now, if I could just locate his version of "A Room Without Windows," I'd be very happy. I use to have this song on an old LP of his many, many, years ago. This song seems lost.
this guy did a community concert series in my town in 1973 - I was in high school at the time, where he performed. I took him out for chili dogs before the show!
Some are touched from above and Peter Nero is One of the main Ones! Truly to me the greatest Piano man so far. Great Tunes are remembered, loved and charrished for all time.
I had a tape cassette of Peter Nero, which I loved. I love his style. I looked up his age recently,and discovered he is the same age as me. Wow! Obviously I.was a young woman when I had this tape.I'm going to order a CD of the same album, I hope. Marie E. Pa.
Too beautiful for words! This beautiful song comes to life because of Peter Nero. It's as if the song speaks to your heart and soul. Sad movie, but exquisite music!
I have to agree with you on this... LOL! I am currently learning this song by special request from one of my students - it's more challenging than I had originally thought! Should be ready to play it for him tomorrow (keeps fingers crossed)...
playing music in a certain way isnt bad as a fact. the value of something is all based on opinion. so to everyone out there disliking his performance for a certain technical or theatrical reason, good for you. im glad you voiced your opinion and gave your two cents; however, please do not criticize those who do like this version and style of playing. it is alright to say you dislike what many admire, but it is rude to impose that opinion on others and degrade them for not sharing the same views.
e vertamente estranho que muitos portuguesas pessoas comentar em youtube sobra obras fantasticos de musica eu achei muitas cada vez lo siento para o meu mal lingua porque esquecei muito a sua lingua sou ingles
Muy lindo, me encanta. También busco "A Love that Never Ends", de Peter Nero, pero nunca aparece el album que es del 1972. Beautiful, I love it. Also I am searching for the song "A Love that Never Ends", by Peter Nero, but never found in TH-cam this album dated 1972.
One of the very best. I like Christopher Peacock, as well, in addition to Frank Chacksfield and Richard Clayderman. Mr. Nero is absolutely, positively on of my favorite piano players of all time.
The amateur pianist who have posted this beautiful melody could learn a lot from Peter Nero and the composer himself. This is how it should be played - you can sing to his piano!
La armonía de Michel Legrand es grandiosa en cada una de sus partituras. Esta pieza pertenece al film que le dá título al tema y que magistralmente interpreta Peter Nero.
@dragontooth81 Check the Hank Jones version, is his last recording and uploaded in YT: Completely inspired in Bill Evans 75 version. Not a single arpeggio, grabs all the feeling of the song and the film
Dear Ms. Angelina Jordan - Finest Friend in Life... Happy "19th" Birthday [ Friday - January 10th, 2025 ] This song and U are my Favorite things in Humanity... Thank UUU / Sooo Much.!!! 4D.
Actually, if people gave the latter the kind of devotion to practice that is expected of the former, if mastering technique was given the credit it deserves, if lovers sought the subtle nuances as well as the grand slam wrastlin' match in a smooch fest, such a declaration would be impossible.
@pianoplaylist They are not obtrusive, but anybody with some practice can arpeggiate over chord tones, one after each other from begining to end. But, have they really something to say? I'll try to upload the Bill Evans version one of this days but check the Hank Jones version, it's completely inspired in Bill Evans. BTW, Michel Legrands version is also overloaded with arpeggios. He destroys his own song!!! Legrand has been always an inspired composer but not very subtile jazzman.

Rest in peace😢 Thank you for your music
Thank you whoever you are for submitting this video. It is a true musician at the piano.
I'm so sorry to hear of his passing. 😢 marvelous working talent.

peter is one of the best classical music that i ever heard.its wonderful
The ever so slight pause, a hesitation is extraordinary and i cannot fathom one not rendering one self to completely surrender and become lost in this soulful melody.
Well said, Beautiful✨❤
He captures the time, the flavor, the feel. No one can do it like he can.

One of the most haunting melodies I've ever heard...

Definitely the Master of Arts.
Mindblowingly lovely. Thanks for posting!
It's wasn't his tune, it's Michel Legrand's written for a movie "Summer of '42", he won an oscar for that in 1972.
Great man!
He can still tickle the ivories.
barring dementia, a pro pianist is not going to forget how.

I Love the Movie of this song having the same title, "Summer of '42".

Ooohh,A Wise Guy,NUK-NUK : )
Yep.
amo essa música,ela mexe no intimo de minha alma! linda.
¡Yo tambien....!
God I wish that I coiuld play piano with that kind of mastery! Nero's not a "high brow" classical pianist but he's got an amazing touch.
even for Nero
this song sounds familiar...dunno in what place did i heard it....
Carl Doy still has the best piano version. Pity it's impossible to find on the web.
Summer of 42 the movie??? could be?
does anyone own the scores of this piece? i would be really interested...
