"I hope you enjoy this arrangement of a great hymn tune, music originally by Jean Sibelius in his masterwork "Finlandia"! I was heavily inspired by the piano solo writing by Rachmaninoff in his 2nd Piano Concerto, and I hope you can see/hear some of that come out, especially in the original transitional lines I've written between verses. It makes for an interesting mashup of musical cultures! Thanks for watching!"

Thank you for the great performance! Your sound flows like a river!
Thank you, Doyeon!
You touched my spirit so deeply. GBU and thank you for an uplifting hymn.
Thank you so much for posting. I absolutely love your arrangements. It's so nice to hear old hymns played in a new and refreshing way. Please please please do more of these! :) I have purchased several of your arrangements and look forward to purchasing more in the future.
My pleasure! Thanks for getting the sheet music as well :-). Do you have any requests? It's been a long time since I arranged a hymn, I've been on a mission to put out a bunch of opera transcriptions haha.
@@CharlesSzczepanek Wow! Thanks for asking. Wasn't prepared for that, and had to think about it for a bit. :) Here's a couple of ideas. Great is Thy Faithfulness (Thomas Chisholm), Like a River Glorious (Frances Havergal), and How Can It Be (Charles Wesley).
Absolutely amazing, I love your arrangements of these classic hymns! Such beauty in how you played and composed this.
Absolutely incredible!! So so touching. Thank you for this! ❤️❤️ I feel like “nearer my God to thee would be so pretty too”!
Thank you!! I actually do have an arrangement of Nearer My God to Thee as well :-). You can check it out here: th-cam.com/video/jv5wzIdSCFY/w-d-xo.html
Hello Charles. This is one of my top 10 hymns. Your arrangement is spiritually stirring. David Artchellta did a special with the Tabernacle Choir. After the concert, David, to show his thanks to the choir, he sang, Be Still, My Soul to them. He is accompanied by just a piano. It was intimate with him and the choir, you search David Artchiletta and the Tabernacle Choir you will find it. Thank you so much for all that give to us!
Thanks so much for listening to more of my music! David is a wonderful singer, that special sounds like a magical experience!
Bravo! Passionate performance of a thoughtful and piquant arrangement. It's a pleasure to listen to.
Thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed!
I love your control of the dynamics and the way it meshes with the rubato! The way you're able to make everything balance is amazing. It's really not as easy as you make it look!
Thanks, Richard! Glad you checked it out!
Stunning arrangement and beautiful sounds created as always! Inspiring!
This is one of my favorite hymn arrangements I've done!
Thank you so much for your beautiful arrangements. I have ordered lots of your music and truly love it. You are beautiful and thank you so much for bringing beauty into this world and passion into this world!
Beth, thank you for your note! I appreciate you listening, getting the music, and also that you enjoy it so much! Thanks for being a part of the channel!
Charles, I associate this piece with singing in church and yet, your passion brought this song to such "alive" life! Very inspiring with your interpretation and I will reflect back to this arrangement when we sing it again!
Thanks, Donna! We will be adding it to the rotation soon! I don’t think we’ve ever sung the words to “Be Still” at Ascension!
Un grand moment d'écoute ! Le charme est toujours bien présent .
Thanks, Josiane!

🎶🎶muito bom!!!!👌🏻👏🏻
Thanks, Rafael!

Wowzer some minor key sown in there? I like what seems to be a little darker undertone gives very nice dimension and balance.
Thanks! A couple diminished chords go a long way in spicing up a major key!
I wish I could play like that :)
Practice, practice! And someday you'll get there!
Never ever like you, but so enjoy your music!your a very talented person.

I'd love for you to share what you dislike so much about this? It's a bit of Rachmaninoff meets this amazing hymn... two of my personal favorite inspirations in music.
Bro is hating for no reason
