- Most Horrifying Piano Music - Liszt "Der Doppelgänger"
Franz Schubert / Franz Liszt "Der Doppelgänger" from the Schwanengesang
Still ist die Nacht, es ruhen die Gassen,
In diesem Hause wohnte mein Schatz;
Sie hat schon längst die Stadt verlassen,
Doch steht noch das Haus auf demselben Platz.
Da steht auch ein Mensch und starrt in die Höhe,
Und ringt die Hände, vor Schmerzensgewalt;
Mir graust es, wenn ich sein Antlitz sehe, -
Der Mond zeigt mir meine eigne Gestalt.
Du Doppelgänger! du bleicher Geselle!
Was äffst du nach mein Liebesleid,
Das mich gequält auf dieser Stelle,
So manche Nacht, in alter Zeit?
Heinrich Heine's Buch der Lieder (1827)

This isn’t horrifying, it’s beautiful, bittersweet, and partially tragic. Not horrifying though
I know what you mean. I think it is in between, tragic and horrifyin.
"The night is quiet, the streets are calm,
In this house my beloved once lived:
She has long since left the town,
But the house still stands, here in the same place.
A man stands there also and looks to the sky,
And wrings his hands, overwhelmed by pain:
I am terrified - when I see his face,
The moon shows me my own form!
O you Doppelgänger! you pale comrade!
Why do you ape the pain of my love
Which tormented me upon this spot
So many a night, so long ago?"
Now you know what the piece is about
Pathetique I’m talking about the music itself. If I was listening to the Schubert original with lyrics, I’d probably be more horrified
Pathetique Also how are those lyrics scary? It’s seeing yourself (maybe as a monster)
@@CalamityInAction I personally don't think it's supposed to be scary per se, the title is a bit clickbaity imo
Doppelgänger means “double walker” in German. Old legends from the country tell of an eerie phenomenon where a person who is about to die will see an exact replica of themselves from a distance away of perhaps behind a wall or shop window. Their identical reflection would often in the legends be scowling or sneering. In some legends the Doppelgänger will proceed to stalk its victim for an undetermined period of time from afar until their living self perished, often from illness, tragic accidents, or being murdered at the hands of people they pissed off earlier in the story, spurred on by the sinister magic of the Doppelgänger. In this way the Doppelgänger was a symbol of the inescapable clutches of death and fate.
doppelganger is just copy or double but true they are a legend
Okay thats kinda creepy
I think we know what doppelgänger means thanks
thank you for explanation I didn't know that
I read this while in the middle of this piece and the chills running down my spine were absolutely violent
It's crazy how humans can feel many emotions from vibrations in the air.
Crazy.
you dont feel it your brain adapt to it
Our bodies are made from music and our lives are a song.
It's all connected, everything in the physical realm has a vibration.
@@theuns-robertpretorius8331 exactly, sadly not many people will grasp this concept, at least in this life
Universe= one song
this feels like a piece on losing a loved one. there are moments when the tone lifts a bit which makes me feel like the composer was thinking about happy memories with this person. then, it fades into utter sadness and helplessness, the feeling that they cant make anymore memories together. then the part where the pace picks up and becomes incredibly intimidating, anger and fear, the feelings they get when a loved one is snatched away from them. and then.....it drifts back into the bitter sweet sound.

@@hayeswhite5306 sure buddy
Plot twist it's about kirito losing his sandwich
@@maximumgas9448 LMAOSNSNNSNS.
I’ve sung this piece before- you’re very close in the interpretation. The story follows the speaker as he is walking through a town he used to live in with his now lost loved one. Eventually he finds himself in front of his old house he used to live in with his love. In the climax of the piece, he sees his doppelgänger in the window, seemingly taunting him. In anguish the speaker asks the doppelgänger why he taunts him with these memories as he remembers back to the times he had with his love which are now long gone. It is a very interesting piece of lied
Every pianist on TH-cam: It's impossible to upload a classical piece everyday.
Traum: hold my sheet music.
(He sometimes uploads twice in a day :/)
Every other pianist on TH-cam: **uploads weekly**
Traum : *"I am speed."*
there’s a possibility that he prerecorded before he even have the channel. but idk
@@fredericchopin6445 I didn't know you were alive
Hey Traum ... hoping you see this . I’ve been a sub from the start and I’m hoping you could do this special request- Prokofiev piano sonata no. 1 in f minor op. 1 I know this would fit in with the Channel perfectly. No one has done this yet so I’m hoping you’re the first! God Bless!
@@GabsARV Rousseau didn't upload for one month.
Brett's lofi is more horrifying than all these..
The best part is that it's not even in a minor key (I think)
Hahahaha twosetviolin
This is the comment i was looking for, thank you
LING LING 40 HOURS
Brett is basic af and makes memes cause he can't hack it in the classical world, don't compare him to Liszt
This looks doable. Might give it a try when I'm less busy. Good job as always!
Hey
Hey Flaming, nice too meet you here :)
Yes! try it. you will play nicely
@@FranzLisztOfficial You should make another piece nobody will be able to play except you
@@FranzLisztOfficial Hello, Franz.
Why is it named "most horrifying" when it should be "most beautiful sending shivers down the spine eyewatering" ?
Perhaps sort of lost in translation
So you click
...you just sat on your keys, that's all
Because that title goes to lacrimosa
@@andreysilva8418 Lacrimosa isn't a piano piece tho
I'm TRAUMatised 😏

@@chrisvanschothorst8075 The emote makes it better 😏
Since you're doing a lot of Liszt, I'd love to hear 'Der Erlkonig' for solo Piano
Good idea, I was thinking about that piece when I read the title of this one
That is by Schubert!
@@grobanite4ever85 yes, you are right, and Liszt made the piano arrangement
@@Arthur-hn5yk Beethoven wrote one, too....but it is absolute shit
@@SorenPenrose still writes better than you(joke)
This is such a beautiful piece. About halfway through though I started crying because it reminded me of my little sister. I love her and she’s incredibly sweet, but she has anger issues. She has gotten so much better though the years, and after a lot of help and support but it was pretty bad when we were younger.
A piano piece reminded u of ur little sisters anger issues lol 😂
@@MoziYK The whole piece, especially the middle, is supposed to be rage filled. The poem it has accompanying it is a man rageful at the fact a doppelganger (A sign of bad luck, and death) is in the form of his deceased wife on the exact day he lost her. So it's not a far fetch to get reminded of anger when the whole song is Anger and Sorrowful
idk why but this song reminds me of my anger issues and how i'm so sensitive. i think it stems from how my parents would hit me when i was younger so now i take everything as a threat. i hate how i'm so sensitive and easily get angry but i don't know how to stop it. i always feel so guilty
Anybody wants to translate this lyric into English? 😃
The night is still, the streets are at rest;
in this house lived my sweetheart.
She has long since left the town,
but the house still stands on the selfsame spot.
A man stands there too, staring up,
and wringing his hands in anguish;
I shudder when I see his face -
the moon shows me my own form!
You wraith, pallid companion,
why do you ape the pain of my love
which tormented me on this very spot,
so many a night, in days long past?
:)
Would you consider playing Chopin’s mazurkas Op. 7 No. 3, and Op. 30 No. 4?
Yes
Yes
@@scintilical9442 THANK YOU!!!
@@lauriesawbridge8299 Doppelgänger ist nicht Zwilling
The night is silent, the alleys rest,
My sweetheart lived in this house;
She left town long ago
But the house is still in the same place.
There is also a human being staring upwards,
And wrings his hands in pain;
I am horrified when I see his face,
The moon shows me my own shape.
You lookalike! you pale fellow!
What do you mimic my love
That tormented me at this point
Many a night, in the old days?
Heinrich Heine's Book of Songs (1827)
gaslights, not alleys
If this won't play at my funeral, i am not dying
Lmao, same.
Haha
Yes.
Yup.
I actually have a list of music that I want played at my funeral, and I have made all my family members sign a contract specifying that that list will be played
This song is also in the list
How is this horrifying? It is somber, melancholic & beautiful
The sense of some monster lurking out of sight is more terrifying than actually seeing it destroying the city.
@@ladymacbethofmtensk896 No it isn't..This is just a beautiful piece of music..don't add your own sinister interpretations to it
@@bharatbhushanbhandari9855 I can consider it both simultaneously. Can you?
Achy Brakey Heart. Now that's horror, but not piano.
@@andrewfrankovic6821 Now I need a drink!
2:37 he tries to vibrate on the piano LULW
They do that from time to time.
I do it simply from experience on other string instruments - vibrato is engrained in muscle memory
Pianists do that to releave the tension that is caused while playing continuously.
@@ChevisPreston I agree I've definitely found that to be the case. But I think that's an odd place for him to vibrato if it were for expression
I also do this lmao
This is my first time hearing this song and rather than horrifying, all I get is the tragic pain off loss and the stages of coping with it.
I could feel the pain in this beautiful piece. It feels like it was written and played by someone who has lost everything, and doesn’t know what to do. So, they do the only thing they know how: play.
I actually felt at peace listening to this piece. There was a feeling of absolution, bitter determination, as well as a touch of desire (for what, I have no idea). This was quite enjoyable to listen to as I woke up this Christmas. Thank you.
The power in this is immense and I'm almost breathless. It's absolutely beautiful and has me internally shaking. It's so raw and open but closed and tragic; it's perfect. It's not horrifying in a way that's like a ghost, it's horrifyingly beautful.
the fuck
Such divine expression, it's so wonderful to see a human play with such fury and hatred but all the same love. Magnificent.
I love the fact how Liszt composed that cords played like trills making this piece very dark.
Great interpretation Trum Piano!😉😊❤️
Even I was frightened from that one !
TRAUMatized !
It is good to see how far you've come from that child I saw performing in concert. Also, wonderful performance of Feux Follets today!
@@therealrealludwigvanbeethoven Thank you heir beethoven. You where my idol growing up !
@@FranzLisztOfficial I am flattered.
Paysage as well.
@@therealrealludwigvanbeethoven thanks
One of the most magnificent pieces of music I’ve heard come from a piano. This represents depressing pain and anguish. An utter disgust with the world. I felt this music deep in my heart!
This feels like sad, tragic, aftermath of heartbreak, darkness that a person holds within their heart, loss of something unexplainable, anguish, rage,
A beautifully sad tragedy
I like how you cut the ending music, it was good, but it was kind of jarring when I put it in a youtube playlist, expecting to hear the next song but instead getting a 20 second ending tune.
I agree Piano Videos without outro music are much better👌🏻
Sex go go
You’re an absolutely astonishing pianist, even when compared with the greatest concert pianists, and you still manage to upload new pieces to youtube every day! Fantastic job👍
3:05 Omg THIS is horrifying
I know 😨
@@FranzLisztOfficial why must you torture us Liszt? I mean beautiful music doesn't have to be such devilish 😂
Yeah, but have you ever tried listening to Dante Sonata? At the beginning it is just pure hell
it’s just a tremolo lol
Does that tickle or hurt
Heart retching chords with a soul crushing melody. I love this.
자극적인 제목에 이끌려 올 한국인들을 위해.
ㅇㄱㄹㅇ
I agree
Q carajo dicen xd
ㄹㅇㅋㅋ
쿠쿠루디브리엄
This is one of the more manageable pieces I’ve discovered via your channel. Keep up the great work, your videos are incredibly high quality.
I have no words to explain how beautiful this is.
*Wonderful Performance!!! You are such a talented pianist! Love your channel as always!!!*
I actually feel when I hear this a sense of overwhelming anguish something akin to a loved one having departed on unsavoury or deeply saddening terms
Beautiful playing ❤
Der du von dem Himmel bist,
Alles Leid und Schmerzen stillest,
Den, der doppelt elend ist,
Doppelt mit Erquickung füllest;
Ach, ich bin des Treibens müde!
Was soll all der Schmerz und Lust?
Süßer Friede,
Komm, ach komm in meine Bru Der du von dem Himmel bist,
Alles Leid und Schmerzen stillest,
Den, der doppelt elend ist,
Doppelt mit Erquickung füllest;
Ach, ich bin des Treibens müde!
Was soll all der Schmerz und Lust?
Süßer Friede,
Komm, ach komm in meine Brust!
So glad i started learning this using this video as a base, i checked other peoples arrangements and they are nowhere near your level of skill, truly magnificent
I have tears in my eyes and I’m covered in goosebumps, this piece wrecked me...
Liszt finally wrote something for beginners
Such a dark piece, I'm actually surprised it ends on a major chord, kinda resolves the dark vibe in the end a little but in a good way^^ Well played!
I definitely wouldn't say horrifying. You can feel the pain and sorrow in the music. It is both beautiful and heartbreaking same time.
The way his hands look and move is what's terrifying
holy smoles, this always gives me goosebumps, and I listen to this piece since forever
가장 끔찍하고 무섭길레 빠르고 엇박타면서 음을 일부러 안맞게 한다는줄 알았는데 아니였네
ㅇㅈ
First time listening to this work by Liszt. Beautiful.
How about Liszt's arrangement of Danse Macabre?
Yes!!
Yes!!
Yes !
Yes!
Yes please!!
This is the first time i listen to this piece. Im speechless, thank you!
축하합니다! 한국인의 댓글을 찾으셨군요!
La verdad que sí
큭 이걸 어케처?
As you're doing quite a bit of Liszt I'd love to hear his 'grande fantaisie de bravoure sur la clochette' at some point ,not too many versions of it on YT ^^
Exactly! All the actually human recordings of this piece were made so long ago it would be nice to hear it with ideal sound quality
Don't forget about Un Sospiro and Ballade No. 2
@@davisatdavis1 Everyone plays those, very few play grande fantaisie de bravoure sur la clochette
I would also like to see him play the 'original version' of la campanella(s140 no 3). The theme that it takes from the violin concerto is really good.
@karandash it have similar techniques to S.140 no. 4 and it's 17 minutes long, that's really really hard xd
That felt like ;" Wallowing in anguish and despair, devoured by a cycle of rage until reaching a gradual resolution"
I feel like terror is such a creative mentality that this sort of music is the most emotional, personal opinion
This piece is just great! I've played this for my friends Wedding.
To me this music, whether this transcription or the original song, express anguish and despair. Schubert with this and other Heine settings and Winterreise really goes to some of the darkest emotional places in music.
The go-to Christmas song in my family! Love it!
I closed my eyes and found myself in a dark place on fire. I was laughing and my eyes were red. I think this music has awakened something in me that I don't want to show others
😂😂😂 I found that part of me a long time ago. Good luck
You’ll need it
-Kaneki Ken.
It is not horrifying. It is so emotional, beautiful, and melodic. Nice🌸🦋
Liszt was amazing, and the older he got, the more amazing his pieces became. When he was younger, he was more of a showoff.
This is Schubert.
@@tyrrian2520 Yea but Liszt arranged it to piano (basically Schubert composed the song with lyrics and Liszt arranged it to only piano)
What a piece played with such deep expression I have nothing left to say.
I know a decent amount of repertoire but I deeply adore the fact that from time to time, after 30 or so years of listen to many kinds of classical music, I still find new music that strikes me as amazingly beautiful. thx a lot for making the miracle happening again!
This will never ever be horrifying, its one big masterpiece, its beatifull, its peacefull to hear and also calming to a certain point. Also if you deeply try to get a meaning out of it you can go through a rollercoaster of emotions.
The only horrifying thing here is you not sharing the sheet, men
I'm feeling super uneasy and I do not know why because this is a GREAT piece...
이제 곧 구독자 1만명이시네요 미리 축하드립니다 🎉🎉
Honestly, that was the most beatiful song i've ever heard on the piano, really!
Mephisto Waltz?? Would love to hear you play it!
Danse macabre
Franz Liszt liszt’s or saint-saens’?
I would love that, there aren’t that many synthesia videos for that piece.
I STILL HATE MINIONS SO MUCH there are piano arrangements for it tho
@@octave11thpianist58 not even one
Thanks for making me discover this beautiful piece!
this isn’t horrifying: it’s a splendid somber melancholic melody that raises your emotions, not to the point of fright but it teases the feelings of sadness.
It's such a beautiful piece. Nostalgic yet beautiful.
I keep hearing cher in the background lightly singing "bang, bang he shot me down."
Not horrifying at all. Such a beautiful and heartfelt piece. Composer had to have lost someone /something he loved for this to come about. Absolutely beautiful piece.
This could honestly be like a film track.
Wonderful playing of this glorious piece. I have long idolized the poems of Heyne and the songs of Schubert, but I find this take on the song by Liszt to be sublime. I do agree that this version of the music is terrifying.
I am unashamed to say that this piece has made me openly weep like a baby
I’m speechless……. Magnificent
It actually makes sense to call this piece scary, unlike the fury of the Queen of Night's aria or the prosaic, academic B-horror Tocatta and Fugue in D minor. This is the more cosmic type of horror embodied in Scriabin's Sixth Sonata or Eine Kleine Nachtmusik.
Love the nice red lens flare above the keys.
Great playing!
I definitely wouldn't call it horrifying, it's maybe a little bittersweet, tragic, sad, but it's a beautiful piece
I feel like crying while listening to this piece.
I don’t know how this makes me feel but I still listen
What a hauntingly beautiful piece
This reminds me of a young child. They were never allowed to be a child, they were always forced to be mature. As they get older, this has affected their mentality in a bad way, and then they become more irritable and negative during adolescence. Near the end, they grieve for their lost childhood and realize that anger won't do them anything, and come to terms with the fact that this is their life now. Given up.
This music makes me happy and joyfully. Powerfull powerchords with piano.
The most beautiful piece ive ever heard
TRAUM... you ALWAYS sound just wonderful weather it's playing some MONSTROUS virtuoso masterpiece... or some other type of work that requires total mood settings... you,always play it for all it's worth... VERY impressive!!!
2:56 my mans hand having a seizure
Thank You for another amazing work of art. Have a good day ☺🍓

The night is quiet, the streets are quiet, my darling lived in this house; She has long since left town, but the house is still in the same place. There is a man standing there too, staring upwards, and wringing his hands with pain; It horrifies me when I see his face - the moon shows me my own shape. You doppelganger! you pale fellow! What do you ape for my love affliction, That tormented me on this spot, So many a night in the old days? Heinrich Heine's Book of Songs (1827)
This is such an impactful piece, it brought me to tears, its masterful... ❤️
I hope someone plays this at my funeral...
Heart ripped out but so warmly and gracefully I barely noticed 🎉

Don’t copy comments :/
This is so macabre and beautiful all at once.

Sorry but I had to ahah
Im actually amazed that someone can play this beautifully👁👄👁
Try the Dante Sonata, it’s probably too hard to do the piano transcription of Dante’s Symphony. Great job as always!
He has played la valse from ravel that is surely harder. also this man can play anything
This is dark, sad and twisted. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
Im curious to hear what this would have sounded like being played on the organ.
Massive 🔥
This is beautiful actually, ngl i don't have words to describe it.
Nice vibrato at 4:00 !
haha
Bruh you got 10k subs soon already. Keep up the good work
I agree, there is nothing horrifying there. It’s my first time hearing this piece and the visuals simply don’t go with what I’m hearing, which is very romantic and nostalgic,. By the way, these cords bear an uncanny resemblance with the main theme in Nathalie Cardone’s song ’Hasta siempre’, no? or the other way around, rather ̂..
Great playing as always :)
I don't feel the "horrifying" part. There is a fear but I hear it as more of a fear of what's to come. It's more melancholic i feel like.
The way I visualize this is I see a man in the dysropic ruins of his home city, seeing all of what he knew is now but dust and rubble. He walks through the decrepit memories of the lost past, but than he stops and puts himself back together and he rises from his tragedy, looking forward he walks on, ready to face what destiny has in store.
Now that I typed this down I see that it's indeed very horrifying. Horrifying, melancholic and determines. But that's just my way of seeing things.
Great great piece of music.
