I learned this by watching David Hicken playing it. I am not sure if he created the arrangement but I think it is really nice. There are two other surprise songs inside of this one. Let me know if you can hear them and if you recognize them. Ukrainian composer Mykola Leontovych created this song based on traditional Ukrainian folk songs and chants. I hope you enjoy it.
🌲😃 So wonderful! Leander, did you notice that you just reached 750K total channel views? After less than 3 months since your first video, that is simply incredible. I cannot imagine where you will be a year from now. 😊
Leander, Thank you so much for all you do .In my eyes you are a genius .How you learn music so quickly and keep it all in your head is beyond me!You are extremely talented and phenomenal and extremely kind. Have a wonderful Christmas.I love this carol and its especially appropriate at this time.Love a d best wishes. ❤❤❤❤
Fantastic! 👏 The rapid rate at which you learn new pieces is just stunning, Leander. And your freshly-tuned piano makes everything sound better than ever.
@Leander-piano I noticed that the D in the bass region has been fixed. You are a beautifull player. Thank you for being there, your playing always brightens my day. Peace. 😊
@Leander-piano Exciting and well done. You might have Jeremy check the csharp below middle C, when you play it firmly (not this song) there is a noticeable wooden thunking sound like a wooden push rod hitting something. The piano sounds very different after he worked on it.
I was so impressed with your Carol of the Bells, It is one of my favorites. What talent and what a smile, you are a natural! Thank you for sharing that.
I could watch this boy for hours....as a long-time guitar player, I haven't seen anything quite on the level of this kind of piano prodigy...I need to show this to my piano player friends.....🤩
Holy crap. That was AMAZING!!! I accidentally found this on Christmas Eve. Yes, definitely I heard your two "surprise" Christmas songs, and I recognized both of them. Thank you so very much for this great Christmas gift. It was the very best gift I received this Christmas.
This brought a couple tears to my eyes because I had an aunt who passed away in 2016 whom I was very close to, and "Carol of the Bells" was her favorite.
I am glad that it reminded you of your aunt even though it is also sad. I like to remember my great grandmother even though I am sad that she is not alive anymore
Grazie, meraviglioso Andrea! Eccezionale il ritmo che tieni, di festa, di gioia, di Amore........tutto danza con te.........bravissimo e giovanissimo! Sicilia, Miriana 30 dicembre 2024
@ that cool! The word has a meaning behind it, did you know that? That's why I use it for things that make me all excited :) You can look it up on Google and see for yourself 😊
Leander...thank you for sharing this special gift with your growing family around the globe. May you and your family have a blessed Christmas. We look forward to all the joy and happiness you will share with us in the new year 2025, and beyond.
I searched out the David Hicken video and compared you two. Leander, you played it the same, but with no music sheet to read. Same cadre, same inflections, but with your great smile, that made you the winner! Aw, Mr. Hicken is good, too! 😁
Leander, I'm so thankful that my brother shared your music with me! I'm one of your biggest fans now! I can't hear enough of your music. God bless you! How old are you? How long have you been playing the piano? How long do you practice a piece of music to be able to play it by memory? God has blessed you with a great gift! Thank you so much for sharing your music with us!
Hey, Leander. You rock! That was awesome. I did, indeed, recognize the other songs, and I hadn't read your comments yet. I'll keep them to myself, though, so that I'm not a spoiler for other people. Take care, and I'll anxiously await your next selection.
Thank the Good LORD Above for Blessing Us all with You, Leander ! Thank you for sharing your joy at the keys with us All. From that bright smile of joy, to the serious concentration through the scales, we Marvel at your Wonderful playing.Thank You, and Merry Christmas.
HELLO, TELL ME, WHICH PLANET THIS BOY CAME FROM. HE IS AMAZING. I MADE POSTS OF HIM IN THE FACEBOOK GROUP, CALLED, LIBERA FANS BRASIL....REALLY, AMAZING...CONGRATULATIONS....
WOW! Just WOW! With “We Wish You A Merry Christmas” and “God Rest Ye Merry, Gentleman!” tucked in there, this is a fabulous arrangement of “Carol Of The Bells”. But your performance is just WOW!!! You are such a blessing and a bright spot in this wild and mixed up world, thank you, Leander! 🎄
Thank you for this concert, we enjoyed it immensely! Your musical posts bring a bright light into the room, especially since we can see how much you enjoy playing! 🌟 🤗 Jerry

(You will benefit greatly with fine tuning, just like your piano.)
David Hicken has long been a favorite composer and arranger of mine. His song "Incantation" caught me years ago. My five year old grandson's favorite song of his is "Absolution." Thank you for sharing his "Carol of the Bells" arrangement with us! Both your music and smile bring joy. Again, thank you.
I've arived home from a days work, to sit back and listen to you beautiful musik, the piano sounds so much better with Jeremy talented work, thank you Jeremy
Wow...Wow...Wow...I love that song. It was "magical." Your fast fingers were amazing. You made it even more magical with your extra added Christmas carols in the song. Magnificent. Great ending. Love your smiles!!!
I think Leander is becoming more comfortable with us around. He seems relaxed and his bright smile is so natural now. Perhaps it's the Christmas Spirit. Definitely a ray of sunshine this one. We thank you for all you do to bring us these works from a time gone by and yes I did pickup the added bits in your composition.
Keep doing what you're doing. Keep growing. You have the natural ability. So young. Amazing. I enjoyed that. You surprised everyone by doing your own renditions at such a young age.
Absolutely incredible, Leander! I don’t know how you manage to learn new pieces so quickly and then perform them so expertly. It’s always a pleasure to see your smile while you play for us.
Wonderful Learnder, impressive the occasional smile is a added bonus, God rest ye merry gentleman was one of the surprises the other I couldn't pick THANKYOU 😊 Ahhh Got it we wish you a merry Christmas also,
