John Oh It fits the grandmother's point of view.. Everything was happy before the palace was attacked, and then all her loved one died with only her escaping... Then she still says that Anastasia is still alive but there were actually no survivors.. The Romanovs were massacered except the grandmother.
Saw this a few years back, didn’t have the skill yet to learn it. A few weeks ago I decided to push myself and try to learn it. I’m about half way through now. Wish me luck Update: I finished the song 4 years later!! Thank you guys for reminding me to practice over the years lol
A couple of years ago, when I first discovered your interpretation of this song, I got extremely obsessed over it. Somehow it felt as if it was embracing me and bringing me comfort in the mist of sad and dark feelings. I still come back here every once in a while to feel that comfort (this is one of those days). So, thank you for such a great performance. Me and all my past selves will always appreciate your effort and skills to perform such beautiful, elaborate and heart warming pieces.
The lyrics: Dancing bears, Painted wings, Things I almost remember, And a song someone sings, Once upon a December. Someone holds me safe and warm, Horses prance through a silver storm, Figures dancing gracefully across my memory Someone holds me safe and warm, Horses prance through a silver storm, Figures dancing gracefully across my memory. Far away, Long ago, Glowing dim as an ember, Things my heart used to know, Things it yearns to remember And a song someone sings Once upon a December
The lower octave (left hand) is playing in my left headphone, the upper octave (right hand) is playing in my right headphone, and the middle is playing through both. Idk how, but it sounds wonderful.
It's almost sad that there is no applause at the end, my mind was just expecting it. Just incredible, truly. I usually can just put this on and then do my work, but I just had to watch you. The keys had a story, and it felt like the hands were telling it. Beautiful.

Как узор на окне Снова прошлое рядом, Кто-то пел песню мне В зимний вечер когда-то. Словно в прошлом ожило Чьих-то бережных рук тепло, Вальс изысканных гостей И бег лихих коней. Вальс кружил и нёс меня, Словно в сказку свою маня, Первый бал и первый вальс Звучат во мне сейчас. Зеркала в янтаря Мой восторг отражают, Кто-то пел на заре Дом родной покидая. Будешь ты в декабре Вновь со мной дорогая….
@@MellowJelly right? Natural talent exists but without refinement it won't take you far. You HAVE to practice to get to this level. Prodigal pianists exist but they're so few and far in between that it really does such a disservice to people who've practiced their entire lives to get to this level to say that it's just "natural talent."
this has been stuck in my head ever since i was little, my mom watch the movie alot and would go around the house singing it all the time... you did an amazing job and brought back alot of old memories :'( thank you sir
It looks so easy when he does it. Just let your hands float over the ivories. Then you try it for yourself and realize what a master can do. Admiring and envious in one.
THANK YOU FOR BEING BORN. I was a fan of your "Howl's moving castle" piano cover. And then I saw this cute/sad film in which I loved the sound of the piano, and I thought of someone familiar (GUESS WHO). and when I saw the makers of the whole short film, IT WAS YOU WHO PLAYED THIS! IT WAS YOUUU. I'M YOUR BIG FAN NOW PLEASE BE MY SENSEI. But seriously, keep it up. You finally got the meaning of Passion.

This is so amazing. After listening to this song many many MANY times, I actually want to learn how to play piano so I can play this song. Keep up the amazing work! You've earned a new subscriber! :)
The way you play this is absolutely breathtaking and it drew me to tears. The emotion you put into this was marvelous and your ability as a pianist is top quality. I'm so thankful I discovered this. Thank you for existing!
это шикарно! мне очень нравятся каверы на пианино, и я обожаю эту песню. но вот все её играли спокойно, когда же в оригинале она такая громкая и сильная вы её сыграли просто божественно
kylelandry #swag 😎😎😭😍 So good! I'm so intimidated to play the song now! I really like how u shortened it or made it simpler than the version from Emile 👌🏻
+smoo9309 I believe Kyle uses the original, simplified sheet music as the "base" to which he improvises and creates his own arrangement. The original sheets can be found online, but he was saying that he came up with the improvisations by ear :)

No se puede transmitir lo que no se siente. He aqui una obra de arte. Cuando la interpretacion es fiel al sentimiento, la expresion es realmente genuina! Mis sincera admiracion. Saludos
2017: This continues to be my favorite, Kyle. I can't afford to but if someone should send you an offer they could film you performing this on a grand piano in a snow infused forest.
Sometimes I think I'm fairly good at piano, then I watch these kinds of videos and realise I have a long ass way to go. I wish I could play like this, stunning and perfect. I'm learning this at the moment, certainly not this version though haha, and wanted to hear other covers of it. I'm in awe, this is amazing
I am playing this for Musical Theatre! I am a piano major at my school and I am about to begin learning this. It is rather difficult to execute cleanly! BEAUTIFUL!!
chompet123 To my sad surprise, the girl who was going to sing it dropped the class. I AM however performing with singers singing: Pulled from the Addams Family Musical, Love Look Away from Flower Drum Song, So In Love from Kiss Me Kate, Why Did I Choose You from the Yearling and In My Own Little Corner from Cinderella. All this Thursday at my school! Thank you!!! :)
How are you with this piece now? I've just started playing the piano again. I'm leaning this piece too. Is it tough. Seems easier than his merry go round of life.
@@jedok1677 to be honest i kinda lost motivation and never got to finish it.. but i want to try again as soon as i can play regularly again ! It is tough but you’ll manage if you stay motivated :)
Once someone asked who my favorite princess was along with the movie, and I did say Anastasia and they said "who?" Anastasia. "Who tf is that?" I was so offended idk why 😂
Grand Duchess, technically, which ranked above Princess because Russian royalty and nobility were weird with titles... :P "Prince" (and I believe "Princess") were pretty common titles, since that was a hereditary title bestowed by the Tsar/Emperor upon certain families. Since it wouldn't do for the children of the Tsar to share the same title, new titles were created. :) russiannobility.org/en/princes-of-the-russian-empire/
This song is enchanting and it almost puts me under a spell of happiness and it gives me the need to go outside in the night and wander around and embrace the moon, as I have a amazing connection with it. I needed this Thank You.
The emotions you put into this piece are just incredible! The way u play some parts softly and some more hard sounds so goood! This is like the best thing I’ve heard anyone play!
Literally gave me goosebumps. I could feel all the passion and emotion he put into this piece through my screen. Wow. Just, wow. Words cannot express how well this man plays!

When I heared this for the first time, it was in an animated story on youtube. I got inspiered to search this piece, you play it so beatifully and thanks to your sheet music, I'm now learning it. Thank you for the amaizing peformense
Beautifully played. Full of emotions. I almost felt that across the screen 😮 I admire how you put so much emotion to it, your talent as well. I mean, you're good!!
This is amazing!! This is exactly what I was looking for in an arrangement of this song. Other arrangements are two chord-heavy, but the flowing scales in yours are perfect. I went and bought the sheet music: as the perfect arrangement of one of my favourite pieces of music, it was well worth the cost! Thank you
I recently watched a video with you playing of this in the backround and I say just hearing this song brought tears to my eyes ................. I thank you

I don't cry very easily but this song gets me every time I end up imagining so much tragic scenarios in my head while listening to this and obviously the throwbacks of the movie and everything
No es solo la canción, que sola ya es una cortavenas, o esa animación tan famosa, es la sola pasión con la que toca el piano, transmite todo sin palabras y es... tan hermoso

^this may describe what you mean, but aside that, I agree, this is a beautiful piece of work.
John Oh It fits the grandmother's point of view.. Everything was happy before the palace was attacked, and then all her loved one died with only her escaping... Then she still says that Anastasia is still alive but there were actually no survivors.. The Romanovs were massacered except the grandmother.
damn tragic story.
That's exactly what I felt! It sounds so beautiful and tragic, love it.
John Oh your lie in april brought me here, its an anime, a tragic one.
All the yes to this.
Wow, i'm a big fan of you Caleb :D

Yass Caleb! I love the musician community on youtube
Caleb Hyles oh yes!! :D

No. I have no luck to spare as I, too, am attempting to learn this piece
SAME
did you learned it?
how's it going?
Beautiful piece. Keep it up, sir!
holy shit dude, the song is already tragic enough, you took it to a whole other level. major props!
I'm 24 years old guy, and this song makes me cry.
me too i'm 32
I'm 17 and i can sense the pain and loneliness from this song
I'm a sperm cell and I too weep.
I'm a log, and I cri
I’m 39 and I cried too.

Glad I'm not the only one who haunts this song...
This made me cry. I also agree. I came here to seek comfort in this beautiful song. I hope you are well Bre.
@@MA-mh9mi thank you! I hope you are well too
You sir, deserve a more expensive piano.
what I was thinking lmao
thucydides Neo He needs a baby grand.
thucydides Neo was literally about to type that
same thought here :D
@ThePansexualPiano LOL
The sheer amount of passion that went into playing this piece is just frightening. (in a good way)
Innit!?✨
I love the build up in the pre-chorus it feels so powerful and really reaches inside you with this confidence.
The lyrics:
Dancing bears,

melody kk thanks
melody kk I'm singing this for choir and I was singing in my mind xD
The lower octave (left hand) is playing in my left headphone, the upper octave (right hand) is playing in my right headphone, and the middle is playing through both. Idk how, but it sounds wonderful.
Vandal the way it should be 😊😊
That is how it sounds if you sit in Front of the Piano^^
Talented is a wild understatement -- one of, if not the, best piano covers I've ever seen
Is hard for me to decide between emile pandolfi's or this one but one thing is for sure, they're both extremely talented. I cried when saw this one.
@@ErikBlanco They're both incredible!
Amazing!❤
OMG , this is the most emotional and beatiful piano song EVER !!!
as soon as I read your comment, I was at 1:10 part. and wooo man ...it truly is emotional and beautiful ...
+Honey Mae OMG
SAME!
It just makes me want to cry right now... like i can sense the pain and lonelyness from this song
Abril Olivera
Yeah ;-;
It's almost sad that there is no applause at the end, my mind was just expecting it. Just incredible, truly. I usually can just put this on and then do my work, but I just had to watch you. The keys had a story, and it felt like the hands were telling it. Beautiful.
This is absolutely breathtaking. This might be the best and now my favorite piano cover of any song I've seen.

I`m glad that people still remember this movie, even when it is from 1997 :D
Yoshino nyuuu IT'S THAT OLD???
Me lel^
It was made before I was born but I still love it >< still rmb watching it as a kid. I feel old now
That's the year that I was born.
I want to see it on broadway so badly!
Как узор на окне
Снова прошлое рядом,
Кто-то пел песню мне
В зимний вечер когда-то.
Словно в прошлом ожило
Чьих-то бережных рук тепло,
Вальс изысканных гостей
И бег лихих коней.
Вальс кружил и нёс меня,
Словно в сказку свою маня,
Первый бал и первый вальс
Звучат во мне сейчас.
Зеркала в янтаря
Мой восторг отражают,
Кто-то пел на заре
Дом родной покидая.
Будешь ты в декабре
Вновь со мной дорогая….
That must've taken years to be such a great player!
Half The Heart close to 20
It's nice that you recognize that, most people are just like "wow you're so talented" lol but it takes so much work!
@@MellowJelly right? Natural talent exists but without refinement it won't take you far. You HAVE to practice to get to this level. Prodigal pianists exist but they're so few and far in between that it really does such a disservice to people who've practiced their entire lives to get to this level to say that it's just "natural talent."
@@razrv3lc Exactly, talent is not hard to find, people who take care of it and practice to seek its full potential are rare.
Yes it does, nothing good comes easy!
The piano is trying to hold on for dear life.
It's not a piano. That's the point. It's an electronic instrument with keys that looks like a piano.
@rose i think we are a match
it’s just a keyboard
Lol it's technically called a keyboard just cuz its electronic but I call my keyboard a piano because I only use it on the piano setting
@Johnny Casteel
I guess this isnt a piano arrangement like it says in the title, it's a guitar arrangement.
I play piano myself and this has really inspired me to become a lot better, you are so talented. This guy needs more praise
this has been stuck in my head ever since i was little, my mom watch the movie alot and would go around the house singing it all the time... you did an amazing job and brought back alot of old memories :'( thank you sir
You have no idea how much I cried to your performance.
I can feel his deep passion for playing piano rushing to my heart. Good job sir!
It looks so easy when he does it. Just let your hands float over the ivories. Then you try it for yourself and realize what a master can do. Admiring and envious in one.
The new TH-cam Comments thing, with the Google+ integration and all of the changes, and bugs is just not cutting it for me. Who agrees?
fuck yes, you can read my thinkings!
same here.
I want to like some people's comments but I can't do that...why......
Better question, who DOESN'T agree??? This new setup makes no sense!
seriously... so annoying
This piece truly brought tears to my eyes. your passion was so clear throughout the entirety of this song. Beautiful, truly beautiful.
This music speaks.....this man is the finest mouth from which that speech should be heard
the biggest lie of my entire childhood is that I thought Anastasia's a disney character 😂
Wait she isn't???? (pfft)
Penn Blotscript she is now
Hold the fucking phone, what?
Anastasia wasn't created by Disney, BUT, Disney bought it, so _technically_ it's for now
She’s not????!!!!!!!
THANK YOU FOR BEING BORN.
I was a fan of your "Howl's moving castle" piano cover.
And then I saw this cute/sad film in which I loved the sound of the piano, and I thought of someone familiar (GUESS WHO).
and when I saw the makers of the whole short film, IT WAS YOU WHO PLAYED THIS!
IT WAS YOUUU.
I'M YOUR BIG FAN NOW PLEASE BE MY SENSEI.
But seriously, keep it up. You finally got the meaning of Passion.
Clements Andoy the rendezvous storyboard? Is that the film you'rr talking about? I heard this there and was dying to find out who played it c:
You're*
Yes thats the film im talking about. :3

Across my memory
Someone holds me safe and warm
Horses prance through a silver storm
Figures dancing gracefully
Across my memory
[Verse 2]
Far away, long ago
Glowing dim as an ember
Things my heart used to know
Things it yearns to remember
[Outro]
And a song someone sings
Once upon a December
I absolutely LOVE it when he goes wild on the keys. You could tell how into it he is, it gives me chills each time. More power to you, Kyle.
This guy played so gracefully. I loved every SECOND of this video
Almost better than the original. Excelent! By the way, what brand/model is that piano?
This gives me the chills..
I didn't know I could fall in love with this song even more yet somehow you managed to make me.
Beautiful, thank you for playing and uploading this.

Was it the rendezvous?
this is just so... amazing it brings tears to my eyes
Watching your videos I'm always afraid that sometime, the legs of the piano will give out.
I keep coming back to this video. A chilling yet beautiful cover, even yrs later. :')
I LOVE THIS INTERPRETATION.
Beautifully played. Full of emotions. I almost felt that across the screen 😮 I admire how you put so much emotion to it, your talent as well. I mean, you're good!!
Moved me to tears. Best rendition ever. So tragic...so beautiful.
Do you sell the sheet music for this? I've been listening for a week nonstop and I would love to learn it!
There are pianists on here that can play well, and then there are those of another league that can make you feel other worldly.. Beautiful
There is playing music and feeling it. Beautiful!
This is amazing!! This is exactly what I was looking for in an arrangement of this song. Other arrangements are two chord-heavy, but the flowing scales in yours are perfect. I went and bought the sheet music: as the perfect arrangement of one of my favourite pieces of music, it was well worth the cost! Thank you
Me has hecho llorar... Me ha encantado tu interpretación... Fue simplemente brillante.
This was ABSOLUTELY AMAZING I ASPIRE TO PLAY AS GOOD AS YOU SOME DAY, YOU DIDNT MISS A SINGLE NOTE
I recently watched a video with you playing of this in the backround and I say just hearing this song brought tears to my eyes ................. I thank you

Se me pusieron los ojos brillosos y solte lagrimas
Me quiero hacer la dura, pero esta cancion me rompe

Dancing bears,
Painted wings,
Things I almost remember,
And a song someone sings,
Once upon a December.
Someone holds me safe and warm,
Horses prance through a silver storm,
Figures dancing gracefully across my memory

Far away,
Long ago,
Glowing dim as an ember,

I don't cry very easily but this song gets me every time
I end up imagining so much tragic scenarios in my head while listening to this and obviously the throwbacks of the movie and everything
No es solo la canción, que sola ya es una cortavenas, o esa animación tan famosa, es la sola pasión con la que toca el piano, transmite todo sin palabras y es... tan hermoso
Great rendition, thanks for sharing!
