I'd bet people would pay to play duets with him haha I would it would be so fun to play with such an easy going gifted musician and also I have a request maybe some Disney songs?
Well-tempered Klavier by Bach. My name is the same as is the musical insanity I preach. Not that you need the preach😂😂😂😂 just a request from my side. But play it as JSB played it , I was in his childhood home in Eisenach and a savant girl played that piece. That moved me to tears she played as if she channeled him 😮
Derek you should do more Bach and improvise more in counterpoint including jazz harmony in it with as per your last videos I've seen the inclusion of set theory too. It is amazing.
This piece consists of a set of 30 variations composed by Bach in 1741 starting and ending with the Aria made famous by the Canadian pianist Glenn Gould. He made several recordings of the entire variations including 1 in the early 1980s. It is always wonderful to hear another pianist with a different interpretation of the Aria. This time a version improvised on the spot.
Just found this, wow. Derek’s fluidity makes me sound like I’m playing my piano wearing boxing gloves. I almost feel like giving up in the face of such abundant natural talent.
Please more Bach! It would make me so happy to hear new wonderful musical ideas on music that is so very rich and timeless.;) Derek can you compose or improvise in his style -now that is something that would be very special for me to hear;)
1:27 - 1:40 please lady ask him to do more of that on future pieces..transcendental stuff ..i didnt get what you said to him but you have to say it more often, it makes this planet a better place :) , thank you for all the videos and please do more, we all love him and you for these , even those 3 people that had a problem putting the mouse arrow above the like button..i hope isnt nothing to bad like esclerosis or something..
Wow, this is one of my favourites of Derek's videos, sounds lovely to me. And to those who would say something about classical music having to be played exactly as it was written, I would say... well... maybe it's not the right moment for that, so I'll just say merry Christmas, lol!!!
I really hope Derek gets his hands on both the 1955 & 1981 recordings of The Goldberg Variations played by Glenn Gould. Would absolutely love to hear him play more contrapuntal music as well!!
Love it! Bravo! 👏👏👏
Very good
well done!

Check the playlist. Many Disney pieces!
Beautiful. I hear Ariosa I believe it is in there
What I love is that this is the most natural improv I've heard on Bach. Absolute from the inside of someone. Thank you!!

It is called practice.

Derek, you're a musical genius. This is breathtaking.
I have a request- Fantasie Impromptu by Chopin
well done!
can you do variation 1?
Can Derek do bohemian rhapsody of Queen? :D
What a wonderful adaptation of this classic theme! Thanks a million for sharing, Derek.
Hi Derek, Could you please play Bach bwv 1031 siciliano Kempf arrangement? Thanks!:)

aumentada Thank you - I suggested some 'Shearing' style chords there! Kelly 🎹

Can you please play fantasie impromptu by chopin
He should play Musique pour la Tristesse de Xion. That would be awesome!
Reminded me of "Hannibal",the same music was played when he wrote letter to Clarice.
This is so beautiful its scary.
I really hope Derek gets his hands on both the 1955 & 1981 recordings of The Goldberg Variations played by Glenn Gould. Would absolutely love to hear him play more contrapuntal music as well!!
2:05 He makes Bach sound like Scarlatti
Amazing! I would love to see you're take on Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen!
Play your own version of the asteroid field music in Start Wars Empire Strikes Back
can you play moon light sonata, in your version i will be so happy if you can do that
thanks
Check the playlist and you'll find it.
More Bach. He could listen to Glenn Gould piano and take some of his style.
I much prefer it without Gould humming along.
Play: sonido bestial - richie ray
That's exactly what I was going to request! Lol
Absolutely phenomenal guy. I would love to see him messing about on another instrument.
He has experimented with other instruments but piano is his thing.
Hi Derek, thanks for sharing all these. How do you feel about playing La Campanella? or maybe a jazz version of Beethoven's 5th?
Derek could you play Optimus from the Transformers score? It's my all time favorite song…
Now I feel kinda stupid, because for a moment there I was expecting to hear the entrance music for the wrestler Goldberg xD
Same I was expecting the The Goldbergs TV show theme
same
H.P. Lovebird same with me😅
Makes me think of Hannibal Lecter!
Legend of Zelda Skyward Sword Theme pls
Great variation. But please, do not comment it while he plays. A bit annoying...
He needs a "lead" I guess, mate. Something like an answer from "the outside-world". Helps him to hit our taste imo.
I would like to hear him just rambling on the piano for an hour, cannot get crazy enough for my taste.
Kelly is his teacher challenging him to play in different styles.
Kelly has been working with Derek for over 15 years. She challenges him.
U can’t play Bach lol. But can play anything else
Is he blind?
