Her Mozart versions were spot on, I love the upside down Mozart. And how she managed to inject Happy Birthday into Chopin's Military Polonaise... This is why I majored in Music Theory. Brava!!
@@Seven_1865 It really is! I learned that Music Theory was a thing when I was in junior high school and I decided immediately that I wanted to study that in college. I did major in Theory, but There aren't a lot of jobs for Music Theory majors out there.
Beethoven: "Oh it's your birthday... Now." Chopin: "You have a birthday and you will know it." Brahms: "Daww a birthday" Bach: "Welcome to my birthday" Mozart: "WE HAVE BIRTHDAYS EVERYDAY TOGETHER"
What i love about this little show is that, for those who are not very familiar with classical music, like myself, she is able to teach us how to distinguish the different characteristics of each composer. Brilliant.
The speed, dexterity, and precision with which she plays these pieces, especially Chopin, Bach, and Mozart's are incredibly impressive to say the least!👌🏾
"We don't stop playing because we get old, we get old because we stop playing." I can't remember who said that, but it's one of the best and truest fucking things I've ever heard.
This will never get old. I've watched this once or twice a year for longer than I can remember and, although the recording quality doesn't age well, I always stay until the last second of the video. It never fails to amaze me.
@@MrNeonerl you would be wrong... if you know Borge's work well, and play it note for note, you are copying it. If she played different songs, that would be inspired. She played the same songs, note for note.

"this woman is awesome!" that is how ı thought in the middle of the video. she is so natural while playing , confident and impressive. ı am sure she practiced piano for years and this is the outcome of hard work and patience.
As a grade 7 pianist, I can say that it would be a very, very long time. I'm only 2 grades from being a fully certified pianist and to be as good as she is I would need at least 3 years of constant practice after being finished those grades to even be half as good as she is! She is an absolutely stunning player and I would also love to be as good as she is!
She just did that 8 years ago and I've never seen any other person do this, how is this not even a meme for any recognition, like this is THE video!!!😭 thumbs up!!👍👌
Victor Borge integrated other pieces and composers. Her talent and skill are not minimized because somebody else made Classical music accessible through "Happy Birthday."
I agree, Randall. As an amateur pianist, I would have to say that most people can't play in Mozart's style while positioned normally on a bench, much less while lying supine. Much more than a "gimmick."
Beethoven: "What's the point of my birthday when she's not mine?" Chopin: "The thing is that I like birthday but I don't like birthday party. But.. but.. shut up. Let me finish first. But for you to celebrate my birthday is something not right. No, no. I'm not lonely in my birthday. I'm lonely in life." Brahms: "Mom. Dad. Can I have one more wish? Can you sing a lullaby to me, please? Bach: "I have no birthday!" Mozart: "Hey, hey. I love birthdays, cakes, spaghetti, marshmallows, balloons, clowns,.."
Beethovan: Happy Birthday to me, Happy Birthday to me.... HAPPY DEATHDAY TO ME Chopin: Happy FUCKING SUGARHIGH BIRTHDAY TO YOU Brahms: Happy birthday to you... there is something wrong with your cake, IT'S MAKING ME SLEEPY Bach: Happy Birthday to you... AND I HAVE COME TO COLLECT YOUR SOUL Mozart: Happy birthday to you... now hurry up I have to play to an other place. Mozart 2: It might be your happy birthday, BUT I WILL PLAY SO HARD, PEOPLE WILL GIVE ME GIFTS THAT THEY BROUGHT FOR YOU
Beethoven: “Is the cake real? Was it ever? What is the point of a birthday if I am not existent?” Chopin: “YES THE CAKE HAS VANILLA I LOVE VANILLA!” Brahms: “Hmm? Ooh, cake, ahhhhh. Have some more, darling husband. Hmm. Nom-nom. Oh look, a unicorn is playing the piano.” Bach: “I asked for VANILLA! This is CHOCOLATE! You made a MISTAKE. GET OUT! YOU’RE NOT MY SON ANYMORE!!!” Mozart: “Anyway, did I tell you about the time I gave my dog the wrong present and he went back to the forest with it? It was a sad day because I couldn’t have the chews to myself. What IS this stuff? Beer? Well, I’ll have just a TAD bit more. A bit more, please? Thank you. Anyway, happy birthday, me, happy birthday, you...”
So basically; Beethoven: "I solemnly celebrate your birth while you question it with a mild existential crisis. Chopin: Naw don't listen to him aren't you happy for your glorious birthday which is plated in gold? Because you should. like it or not. Brahms: I'd like to say hbd but small voices because the neighbour's fluffy cuddly kittens are taking their afternoon naps and it's a serious offense to wake them up. Bach: You'll have a birthday and it's mandatory to be happy. Mozart: OMG Happy birthday, meanwhile i ate all of your birthday cake and now i have sugar rush.
The last one looked like Keith Emmerson playing Mozarts Happy Birthday! Great cover of a Victor Borge classic. I'm so glad that someone is keeping this musical comedic playing alive!
I'm so glad the camera was on the hands and keyboard, as my ears alone could not keep up with the beauty of this performance. Mind blowing at 2:54 and actually, everywhere! Brava!

Wow those fingers are just amazing! Not to mention the creativity and genius of the player. It was also interesting to hear the contrast in the styles of the composers.

Those who play Mozart in recital are doing no different than this woman. My comment was meant to praise her ability to replicate someone else’s work. That’s all. :) With Peace&Love)
There are a lot of Victor Borge ripoffs, like Hand Liberg and others. But this lady (other than the competition) is a truly brilliant piano player. Love it !
Not so much VB “ripoffs” as building on his unmistakable influence. He was a master - yet at times his side-alley meanderings were highly irritating. Hey, man, we got the joke first time around. Enough already. By contrast, this woman’s lean and passionate ease enhances her lovely playfulness.
@@rodywithers3536 th-cam.com/video/hkkHz8xq7lE/w-d-xo.html. Not to take away from this lady’s performance, because she’s incredible, and I’m glad we have modern day Victor Borges, but this is certainly a ripoff of his work right down to using the tune of “Happy Birthday”. Not a bad thing, but I call it like it is.

Too bad people have to be so cruel on the Internet. 90% of her audience probably never saw Victor Borge or even know who he was. I was a huge Borge fan ------------- and I am a fan of her doing this for today's audiences. Give her a break. I can name dozens of jazz musicians who cop all kinds of licks from the previous masters.
YESS!!! EXACTLY!!! I mean she's sharing her joy from Victor Borge with others so shouldn't Victor Borge's hardcore fans thank her? hmm.... Elvis Presley stole a lot of songs I believe
Yes! Great comment! Here, here! There needs to be more of this fun, not less. I was a fan of his too, and obviously this musician is as well. And who cares if she isn't the very first person to have done this? You're right, people seem to think just because they can hide behind a keyboard, they can be as nasty and irrationally nit-picky as they please without getting called on it.
Miss Capri A man goes on stage and enchants an ignorant audience with the wisdom of Jesus by delivering word for word His Sermon on the Mount. Ought he be lambasted for taking credit for doing so without even the slightest acknowledgement of its true author? Discuss.
Mike Vax I thank you for this comment. First I was actually searching for someone in the comment who knew who Borge was, because it looked so much like his shows here (as in reaaally), but he wasn't mentioned in the description or else. Maybe it's a tribute and she mentioned it, but it just isn't showed. Maybe she does other things (first video that I'm watching). Maybe she even doesn't know him at all but has the same ideas (that can happen, I know what I'm talking about). So thanks for having put it in perspective.
Its funny how you can know nothing about piano but you can still instantly identify an elite pianist by a display of mind-blowing finger dexterity that you can just tell came from Piano lessons as a child. I've been on a 6 hour rabbit hole of watching master pianists and it all was triggered by me wanting to hear moonlight sonata which is a song I've been obsessed with for 25+ years. Its such a heartbreaking song that in my opinion represents going through a tragic loss, feeling completely powerless, and there's not a single thread of a silver lining to salvage. Its just part of the human experience that everyone will at least go through once if not more.
Beethoven: "Birthday ? just another day in this endless suffering called life" Chopin: The birthday party's DJ Brahm: "Wish you all the best and good luck sweety" Bach: the spotlight wherever he goes, even if its your birthday. Mazart: The MC that runs your birthday party like a harmonious oschestra
You know what, I actually love this.

Yeah right!
A female Victor Borge
Amazing pianist!! Her talent with playing the piano with her fingers upside down in the end was incredible!!
Need more musicians like her sharing happiness to people. Wonderful ! 🎂❤️
There are a lot of Victor Borge ripoffs, like Hand Liberg and others. But this lady (other than the competition) is a truly brilliant piano player. Love it !
Not so much VB “ripoffs” as building on his unmistakable influence. He was a master - yet at times his side-alley meanderings were highly irritating. Hey, man, we got the joke first time around. Enough already. By contrast, this woman’s lean and passionate ease enhances her lovely playfulness.
Exactly..remined me too of Victor Borge
Actually, I was reminded of Liberace's rendition of Chopsticks.
@@rodywithers3536 th-cam.com/video/hkkHz8xq7lE/w-d-xo.html. Not to take away from this lady’s performance, because she’s incredible, and I’m glad we have modern day Victor Borges, but this is certainly a ripoff of his work right down to using the tune of “Happy Birthday”. Not a bad thing, but I call it like it is.
She's absolutely marvelous and so funny ! Happy birthday to everyone.
Awesome, creative ways/styles to project how each composer would compose Happy Birthday.
It was a lovely birthday present for me.
She plays piano upside down and backwards 100x better than I could perfectly normal with my full attention
Definitely Victor Borge style! I loved him!😋Thank you for having a whole another generation have fun with music! 😋
I'm an ignorant uncultured swine of classical music yet I was able to recognise each distinctive style of each composer. Brilliant rendition.
Kudos to this musician and to the post musicians who made really inspiring pieces. I've had goosebumps!

Your comment is cancer and cringe
😂🙋🏻♂️
Nice original joke. Never seen this one before
Marlon Gomez you using cancer like that so freely on a random ass comment is cancer
She is a genious.
aah yes, geniOus
She ripped off Victor Borge completely...
As funny as this is, it was already done by Victor Borge, and more successfully too.
It is victor borge.
nice spelling genius.
Comedic genius on display; delightful.
Too bad people have to be so cruel on the Internet. 90% of her audience probably never saw Victor Borge or even know who he was. I was a huge Borge fan ------------- and I am a fan of her doing this for today's audiences. Give her a break. I can name dozens of jazz musicians who cop all kinds of licks from the previous masters.
YESS!!! EXACTLY!!! I mean she's sharing her joy from Victor Borge with others so shouldn't Victor Borge's hardcore fans thank her? hmm.... Elvis Presley stole a lot of songs I believe
Yes! Great comment! Here, here! There needs to be more of this fun, not less. I was a fan of his too, and obviously this musician is as well. And who cares if she isn't the very first person to have done this? You're right, people seem to think just because they can hide behind a keyboard, they can be as nasty and irrationally nit-picky as they please without getting called on it.
Miss Capri x
Miss Capri A man goes on stage and enchants an ignorant audience with the wisdom of Jesus by delivering word for word His Sermon on the Mount. Ought he be lambasted for taking credit for doing so without even the slightest acknowledgement of its true author? Discuss.
Mike Vax I thank you for this comment. First I was actually searching for someone in the comment who knew who Borge was, because it looked so much like his shows here (as in reaaally), but he wasn't mentioned in the description or else.
Maybe it's a tribute and she mentioned it, but it just isn't showed. Maybe she does other things (first video that I'm watching). Maybe she even doesn't know him at all but has the same ideas (that can happen, I know what I'm talking about). So thanks for having put it in perspective.
Its funny how you can know nothing about piano but you can still instantly identify an elite pianist by a display of mind-blowing finger dexterity that you can just tell came from Piano lessons as a child. I've been on a 6 hour rabbit hole of watching master pianists and it all was triggered by me wanting to hear moonlight sonata which is a song I've been obsessed with for 25+ years. Its such a heartbreaking song that in my opinion represents going through a tragic loss, feeling completely powerless, and there's not a single thread of a silver lining to salvage. Its just part of the human experience that everyone will at least go through once if not more.
0:19 Beethoven => 0:40
1:17 Chopin
1:49 Brahms
2:19 Bach
3:18 Mozart

I'd like to hear a version done by Wagner
it really is elegant even playing happy birthday in different tones but without losing the essence of the true music of the creators ✨♥
Fantastic...She has understood really the soul of great Musician...
The final show is incredible
I think she's been doing this her whole life...brilliant....
Fantastic! She is a brilliant performer with a great sense of humour. I sent this to my sister in Europe on her BD and she loved it.
Fantástica!!! Gracias por la música y por el humor!!! ❤️🇦🇷
Mindblowingly effortless, this act is a master piece !! Hats of to the lady
Beethoven: "Birthday ? just another day in this endless suffering called life"
Chopin: The birthday party's DJ
Brahm: "Wish you all the best and good luck sweety"
Bach: the spotlight wherever he goes, even if its your birthday.
Mazart: The MC that runs your birthday party like a harmonious oschestra
*Mozart
The Chopin version hits the real essence of a happy birthday song.
훌륭한 표현력이에요😮 최고👍👍
I would like to watch her complete performance.
It's awesome.
I loved it.
What a talented, entertaining, creative and charismatic performer!
OMG....I love the Brahms version!! So beautiful..
OMG! This was absolutely brilliant. How is it that I am only hearing this now? A-MAY-ZIN!!!
Seriously, Beethoven Happy Birthday was so heart touchy.
I feel like crying
The Beethoven one was absolutely beautiful…I want this played at my funeral.
This is the work of a genius! I love it. You can recognise the different styles and they are spot on! Amazing.
It's not her work, Victor Borge is the one who originally created this.
Very clever and amusing. It was my birthday a week ago. I wish she was around then. Loved it! Brava! ❤
