Your comment inspired me to write this Someday, this piece will be played for the last time. Like nothing ever mattered. Before the grand finale, before the fireworks erupt, I sit at this piano, in this grand ballroom, where the ceiling mocks the night sky, and play my heart out. I had lived an eternity of triumphant and defeated days. Some light, some dark. From the happiest moments, to the darkest hours. All of it in the end was just time. However, it was time well spent. Having lived such a long and fulfilling life, you barely felt sad about it being over. You felt numb, but not in a dreadful way. You felt numb in a peaceful way. As if your soul was ascending somewhere better. A perfect fit for the end of the world. All things end at some point, and now was finally the time. It was your time to say goodbye. Edit: just realized that I switched from 1st to 2nd person but I'm too lazy to fix it
@@cjkopper7064 Apparently the ending part of the piece (B section "agitato") was inspired by a nightmare he saw. The nightmare took place at a funeral. In the middle of the place he saw a coffin. He walked closer and closer to the coffin and started to open it. Inside the coffin he sees the body of himself lying down...
@@cjkopper7064 holy shit you’re right. I think it also depends on perspective. Rachmaninoff’s could seem like death more to someone who’s afraid of dying has a lot left to lose, where Chopin’s sounds like death for people who are at peace with dying and are even ready for death. Fuck me piano is deep
This captures the deep tragedy that humans are cursed to endure in such a way that suggests.. ..it was all worth it in the end. If this was played at the end of humanity, it would be beautiful and quite fitting.
Why is it that we must endure such a curse though? Surely nothing so great as to warrant the genocide of a whole species for as long as existence keeps them..? It isn’t fair.
@@andybaker8775 it’s not fair, you’re right. But without the danger and chaos, is life worth it? Aren’t we most excited and thrilled when we are walking the fine line between living and near catastrophe. It’s so good we even made a word for it: “sublime”
I think it’s all kinda funny. We existed, then we didn’t. It’s also beautiful. Maybe existence is like a star.. stars dance from when they’re born.. until they die, like all beings… so, let’s try to burn bright until we burn out, shall we?
It's mesmerizing people with no musical background and practiced musicians can experience the same emotions from such a work of art. It's really magical.

@@FeralSB2S351 Well, then I will probably never get that closure. of being the world's hero, or having something to look forward to. and although it may be sad, it's fine because no one probably ever will themselves.
this piece of music feels like what it must feel like to see the world ending around you when you can't do anything but sit and watch, oddly calming due to the nature of no more stress but slightly unnerving like the end scene of a movie you wanted more answers too, something you're not quite done with yet, being done was never your decision to begin with. It's like forced acceptance into peaceful bliss. Kind of like the unsatisfactory feeling where you're never quite full. Its like watching your lover slip away into the arms of someone else, never meeting your first love again, its like giving away everything you feel at once to something forcing you to admit you still think or feel about the things you never wanted to remember again. it feels like tearing away at an old wound as you lie on the floor wondering why you feel so strongly so suddenly once more. cold yet comforting tears trickling down your cheeks as you smile at your old painful memories. It is grieving acceptance of all you love and lost as you watch it all crumble before your eyes as you desperately try to scramble all the little pieces you have left together, yet failing your efforts when you never wanted anything more.
It's melancholy, it's watching a painting for hours and penetrating into its soul, it watching a loved one leave forever and still staring at the train until it's vanished and you vanish into oblivion and that you never want to come out to reality.
hi!! how's everyone doing? first of all, i want to apologize for taking a very long time to make a 1 hour version but thankful at the same time for waiting, and i also apologize for being away for such a long time but im back!! always remember, you are loved and you are enough
yo I know it's been so long after you posted this version, but there's any way to get the picture you used in this video? I mean, who's the author. I'd like to know cause I find it really beautiful and mesmerizing
I used to have an electric keyboard that had this song pre-loaded onto it. You could slow the song in order to learn it and also leave it on repeat. I would turn it on at night at a slower pace and fall asleep to it when things got bad. This reminds me so much of those times. It's simultaneously wonderful and a little devastating. Despite that, or maybe because, this remains one of my favorite songs in this world.
@Doom Guy its pretty much shifting you mental consciousness into another ‘hyper-realistic alternative dimension’ dont worry, it’s [almost] completely safe! just dont use it too much!!
I've been depressed for about an year. I felt music stop working for me, it just didn't appease me anymore, and as a musician that's hell. I'm treated now, but I longed for this feeling... as if music was everything again. And this version gave me a glimpse of it all again, as if music had been calling me through the halls of my mind. Thank you, kind stranger.
Running out of air The frost coats your skin The weight of space Slowly sinks in You watch the stars Dance within the dark And you catch a glimpse Of red, glowing Mars Your lungs cry for air But you don’t care There’s nowhere You’d rather be Than lost In the beauty of space By me!
Taking your final breaths, a stream of memories comes back to you. From your innocent and youthful childhood days all the way to your adulthood. Some painful memories and some beautiful. And you realize that they were only days. Days that have passed and that you will never have again. But it's fine, you're at peace. The sunlight pouring into your window made the vase of flowers on the table next to you glimmer brightly like dancing stars. A tree outside grew, full of life. Squirrels played under the branches, protected by the leaves. Birds built nests and insects made burrows. Children played outside, eyes shining bright and wide. Genuine smiles were found on their faces. Dogs were running after sticks and enjoying the vibrant life outside. Cats laid on couches inside their houses, soaking up the warmth of the sun. The music playing from another room put them in a merry mood. In other countries, people are at war. Diamond tears rolled down kids rosy cheeks. Families grieve and mourn their deceased loved ones. Looks of sorrow and anguish evident on their faces; guilt and hatred reflected in their eyes. Teens no longer flinch at the sound of bombs, for they have become desensitized. Many live in poverty, neglected. Many and many more tragedies could be found anywhere, everywhere. But still there is beauty in life, you know? Life itself is one big, beautiful tragedy. Have you experienced it to the fullest? ... Why aren't you replying, hm? ... Oh you have passed. I see. I hope you have made use of your life, you only have one, after all; or at least one that you can experience in this consciousness. But for now you must let that go and rest... _roll credits_
The wooden rafters above him became a dull sight, and the sunlight streaming in through the glass hurt his eyes. Closing them, Ani sighed, immediately tensing up as the eerie echo of a song floated up to his study. His eyes shot open again as he listened, realizing that someone was playing his piano downstairs. The piece was familiar; one of Chopin’s nocturnes. It’s player was slow and patient, turning the lovely piece into a melancholy display of painful notes. The menacing sound tore at Ani’s heart, as he became aware of the stillness around him. He was alone with himself, and he himself was the one taunting him with those tedious chords. They echoed and droned through the emptiness of the castle. Slowly and cautiously, he sat up in the window seat and unlocked the window, letting the frame of glass creak open on its hinges. Ani poked his head out into the chill morning air as those ominous notes struck his ears. Looking down, he could see the windows of his music room, the glass stained black as a dark mist billowed up like smoke from every crack of the walls. His ears began to ring the more the piece echoed, and a feeling of dread overtook him. His Other had returned for him, and he was not there for small talk. (An excerpt from the 3rd book of my book series I'm writing. "The Chronicles of Zen.") Edit: i did not expect anyone to read this XD um... Hi
its like 3pm in the afternoon as im writing this and im seriously struggling to stay awake while i listen to this masterpiece. it's just..so beautiful and calming that it's insane. makes great writing music too.
it blows me that someone was capable of creating such a piece that makes us feel this beautiful but yet melancholy feeling. it reminds me of the time i don’t remember.
I didn’t imagine slow dancing. But I imagined playing this piece together in this place. Them sitting behind me, their hands over mine. Just playing this magical piece, with only the sound of music around us.
This video, Saint-Saëns' the swan, and Debussy's clair de lune extended, helped me during late night studying and also helped me ace a math test which I had the worst anxiety about. Thank you ♡.
I'm so inloveeee with this piece so much!! But why do I think every time I play it, it tells me that, "Everything is okay bb, just hold on. All this pain will be gone soon and I'll bear it with you, and promise you that you'll be happy again.."
its two day since i started listening to this song......i'm reading a chaotic story right now and it feel like eating a cold sandwich with hot milk. a true blessing
Its been two weeks since i heard this version. It's very moving. I'd always liked the song and hearing it played like this inspired me to learn it. Thank you for the motivation and great tune
This piece is so mesmerising to me,I feel like it can be played in so many ways,like one way I've heard it and I feel like it was more frustrated and as if someone is letting their irritation,and then I've heard it where it sounds almost the opposite,like its sort of calm and the person playing is content and accepting of their surroundings
One day, all will be left of music are a couple fleeting notes, like falling feathers and soft rain. The names of the pieces will remain in the shadow, but our hearts will remember the notes, forever engrained in our distant memories like moonlight shining on clear waters.
This sounds like what plays when you realize you've lost everything. That sadness turns to rage and then to insanity. You sit there looking calm as all the emotion swells behind you but there's so much you don't know what to do. So you start smiling. A single tear rolls down your cheek and you start to chuckle to yourself. Not like an anime lunatic. Just like you've realized you lost. :)
"Everything was crumbling around me. Everyone was running. But I wasn't, I was standing still, looking...calm? "This is it" I told myself. “Goodbye world. Goodbye me."
Your alone in an abandoned castle. All of a sudden, a slow piano begins to play. You follow the hollow and empty, slow sound, and you stumble upon an exquisite ballroom. Nobody is sitting at the piano, for the piano is playing itself. Abruptly, a tall man appears beside you, holding his hand out. You’ve never danced before, but you learn things quite fast. You take his hand, and he takes yours. The waltz begins. It’s almost as if your dreaming. You wake up and you are dancing with the same man, and around 100 people are so surround you in a circle. You realize, this is reality. This is no mere dream, you are living the life you’ve always wanted. Has your wishes been granted by the Gods above? No. You are not dead, you are living in another dimension, where one’s dreams are granted.
This is what this piece sounded like when I first learned it on my great-grandparents' old 1880s Estey upright. Those were the days, my friends, we thought they'd never end... but they did, a long time ago.
This was pre recorded on my piano and I used to play it to fall asleep. This version has the same effect but even more powerful 😴 definitely my fav for ever, thanks for uploading!
you can feel the intensity flowing right through the reverberating musical notes, like glass. whooping your very own conscience, questioning everything in your life.
This piece makes me want to write another chapter in my secret book and make it the tragic and the most beautiful chapter I ever wrote or place my emotions somewhere in this paper with watercolor or oil pastel. I don't know, this is just way too good.
I listen to this song and it depends on my mood how I interpret it. Sometimes it's romantic, sometimes it's happiness, sometime's it's sadness. Thx for making this!!
Such a beautiful peach created by a myster of the classic music, there are no words to describe the work of old day musicians, its Just so pure and lifegiving, its like drinking fresh water from a cristal clear lake in the middle if the mountains and you hear is birds singing, the fresh air goes trough your nostrils as it reaches your lungs and all of a sudden euphoria hits you, you start dancing barefoot on the cold and almost like cotton grass, your mind is clear and you are in the happiest state you have ever been, you see a mama deer with her baby deer drinking of the lake and you smile as you feel the air touching your skin like its your mother holding you as a baby and singing you to sleep, a butterfly lands on your nose and you reach gently with your finger and she goes on it, you rause your arm and she flyes peacfully into the air, you feel tired and decide to lay on the grass and you fall asleep like a baby without any worries
Now I have to print the music sheets from this nocturne and just learn to play it and put reverb on my synth so I can feel like the creator of the universe contemplating my creation falling down to dust as nothing matters
It's an empty feeling we all share from time to time, but is it not a part of what makes us human? Having the profound ability to reflect on what we have lost, how our lives have changed is a wonder like no other. It is in that moment, when you can feel the pit in your heart that you realize we're all the same. You hurt as I hurt, and the pain you feel is no less real than another's. How is it that knowing you share this feeling with all the people of the world makes the sense of isolation greater? No answer can satisfy the endless questions that race in our minds, but the thoughts will cease. We all reach our last destination and death grasps us with it's indifferent grip, taking us to rest. That endless sleep we all long for is the last answer we ever receive. My ramblings are unnecessary, yes, but not unappreciated. I know you felt something, agreed with some single thought I have recorded here. And with with that, you know me like you know your reflection.
This piece feels like it will be played at the end credits of existence

Sending me their heat from eras ago.

How it has always been.
The lights call me.

Slowly sinks in
You watch the stars
Dance within the dark

Than lost
In the beauty of space

I didn’t imagine slow dancing. But I imagined playing this piece together in this place. Them sitting behind me, their hands over mine. Just playing this magical piece, with only the sound of music around us.
Ahhhh I wish
Is a companion character a cartoon

this piece makes me feel like I can't breathe.
This video, Saint-Saëns' the swan, and Debussy's clair de lune extended, helped me during late night studying and also helped me ace a math test which I had the worst anxiety about. Thank you ♡.

makes me imagine some slow-mo cinematic of the last moments of the end of the world, mothers crying, shedding blood and tears, ykno
I'm so inloveeee with this piece so much!! But why do I think every time I play it, it tells me that, "Everything is okay bb, just hold on. All this pain will be gone soon and I'll bear it with you, and promise you that you'll be happy again.."
its two day since i started listening to this song......i'm reading a chaotic story right now and it feel like eating a cold sandwich with hot milk. a true blessing
There is a dream's atmosphere in this sound! It's so magnific!
Arcydzieło, rewelacja ! Chopinie, geniuszu ❤️
It has been a while since I last listened to a classical piece. Now hearing this masterpiece, the feelings are mixing
Realizing it has the best music ever
I have never heard anything like this before,how truly magnificent
"When you are the last person on earth" presence of this version. Very sad and creepy, my total vibe. Thank you for this catcus
This has a similar vibe to Its Just A Burning Melody but less.. Sad? This is more like acceptance of the inevitable to me.
Lovely tysm
Other music may entertain us, but this music heals the mind and soul.
This is so beautiful… It makes me feel so calm. Thank you for creating this! 💕🥺
Its been two weeks since i heard this version. It's very moving. I'd always liked the song and hearing it played like this inspired me to learn it. Thank you for the motivation and great tune
Fun fact, this piece is played in the E flat major key, which is funny since it’s one of the most melancholy songs I’ve heard
songs to listen to at three am while its raining
i feel like im sleeping on the clouds while listening to this masterpiece
poetry to my ears
Painting to this is such a beautiful joy. 💚
I can feel the universe calling
this song makes me feel like i’m drifting off into space. In my own world, no school, no parents, it’s just me and my thoughts.
in the name of love, ilysm frederic chopin
Everyone talking about how this is a masterpiece and then there's me that I use it when I can't sleep 🧍🏻♀️
This sound is like living inside a dream. I just don't find The right words. How beautiful, really. Thanks.
This makes me want to be able to play the piano again
Me too, but there isn't always time.
@@fin4al make time. then pour your heart out to those keys. it is worth it
This piece is so mesmerising to me,I feel like it can be played in so many ways,like one way I've heard it and I feel like it was more frustrated and as if someone is letting their irritation,and then I've heard it where it sounds almost the opposite,like its sort of calm and the person playing is content and accepting of their surroundings
One day, all will be left of music are a couple fleeting notes, like falling feathers and soft rain. The names of the pieces will remain in the shadow, but our hearts will remember the notes, forever engrained in our distant memories like moonlight shining on clear waters.
I’ve been looking everywhere for this song btw so thanks
This sounds like what plays when you realize you've lost everything. That sadness turns to rage and then to insanity. You sit there looking calm as all the emotion swells behind you but there's so much you don't know what to do. So you start smiling. A single tear rolls down your cheek and you start to chuckle to yourself. Not like an anime lunatic. Just like you've realized you lost. :)
this is gorgeous
Settling with this one for the rest of my life. Farewell.
i used to listen this every day when i read *the song of achilles* (its a book, a heartbreaking one) so whenever i listen to this it makes me cry TwT
"Everything was crumbling around me. Everyone was running. But I wasn't, I was standing still, looking...calm? "This is it" I told myself. “Goodbye world. Goodbye me."
Your alone in an abandoned castle. All of a sudden, a slow piano begins to play. You follow the hollow and empty, slow sound, and you stumble upon an exquisite ballroom. Nobody is sitting at the piano, for the piano is playing itself. Abruptly, a tall man appears beside you, holding his hand out. You’ve never danced before, but you learn things quite fast. You take his hand, and he takes yours. The waltz begins. It’s almost as if your dreaming. You wake up and you are dancing with the same man, and around 100 people are so surround you in a circle. You realize, this is reality. This is no mere dream, you are living the life you’ve always wanted. Has your wishes been granted by the Gods above? No. You are not dead, you are living in another dimension, where one’s dreams are granted.
ooh, this sounds almost exactly the same way I heard a pianist play it in our school's halls. Mesmerising indeed.
I love listening to this whenever I’m studying or doing homework it makes me focus more on my work
Thank you for uploading. I tip my hat to you.
This is what this piece sounded like when I first learned it on my great-grandparents' old 1880s Estey upright. Those were the days, my friends, we thought they'd never end... but they did, a long time ago.
I'm experiencing the same thing now. Time is slowly passing me by faster and faster. It's tragic and beautiful.
This was pre recorded on my piano and I used to play it to fall asleep. This version has the same effect but even more powerful 😴 definitely my fav for ever, thanks for uploading!
you can feel the intensity flowing right through the reverberating musical notes, like glass. whooping your very own conscience, questioning everything in your life.
This piece makes me want to write another chapter in my secret book and make it the tragic and the most beautiful chapter I ever wrote or place my emotions somewhere in this paper with watercolor or oil pastel. I don't know, this is just way too good.
This relax me while Im doing my homework, thank you
Im very proud of Chopin!! TY for these bangers man.
Thank you for this video, kind youtube stranger. From the bottom of my ever restless heart, thank you.
I have an xam tomorrow morning this is just - perfect, Im relaxed for sure now
i got shivers this is perfection
So excited to have this piece learned and make it sound this mystical without any editing.
I listen to this song and it depends on my mood how I interpret it. Sometimes it's romantic, sometimes it's happiness, sometime's it's sadness. Thx for making this!!
song?
@@martynszalewski4762 nocturn op.9 no.2 ... it's in the title
@@simoneiiii4817 you think it is a song? I don't hear any singing
@@martynszalewski4762 Its a freaking musical piece. What do u even expect???? Ofc it doesnt have lyrics.
@@simoneiiii4817 Well you said song, not piece. Song contains lyrics
This is a masterpiece.
This brings me very close to remembering a life I once loved long ago. An old memory that is almost realized...but not quite.
this hits different after finishing a really sad film with a really depressing ending
One of the piece that express my emotions I can't name
I just found this and omg I’m obsessed
This music is like a dream, believing in the intangible and reaching for it, then waking up.
Let your dreams inspire you friends.
I love writing down my thoughts with this playing on the background
What are you thinking about right now?
@@kevinnolasco8691 got my heart broken today, so my mind its a little bit crowded with dark thoughts atm
Such a beautiful peach created by a myster of the classic music, there are no words to describe the work of old day musicians, its Just so pure and lifegiving, its like drinking fresh water from a cristal clear lake in the middle if the mountains and you hear is birds singing, the fresh air goes trough your nostrils as it reaches your lungs and all of a sudden euphoria hits you, you start dancing barefoot on the cold and almost like cotton grass, your mind is clear and you are in the happiest state you have ever been, you see a mama deer with her baby deer drinking of the lake and you smile as you feel the air touching your skin like its your mother holding you as a baby and singing you to sleep, a butterfly lands on your nose and you reach gently with your finger and she goes on it, you rause your arm and she flyes peacfully into the air, you feel tired and decide to lay on the grass and you fall asleep like a baby without any worries
my soul just transported to another universe ty
this photo makes me feel nostalgia for no reason but i love it
I'm feeling so relaxed
Me listening without headphones: not bad it's really really good
Me with headphones: this...this is what I call music the pinnacle of beauty and music
Now I have to print the music sheets from this nocturne and just learn to play it and put reverb on my synth so I can feel like the creator of the universe contemplating my creation falling down to dust as nothing matters
What a masterpiece
It's an empty feeling we all share from time to time, but is it not a part of what makes us human? Having the profound ability to reflect on what we have lost, how our lives have changed is a wonder like no other. It is in that moment, when you can feel the pit in your heart that you realize we're all the same. You hurt as I hurt, and the pain you feel is no less real than another's. How is it that knowing you share this feeling with all the people of the world makes the sense of isolation greater? No answer can satisfy the endless questions that race in our minds, but the thoughts will cease. We all reach our last destination and death grasps us with it's indifferent grip, taking us to rest. That endless sleep we all long for is the last answer we ever receive. My ramblings are unnecessary, yes, but not unappreciated. I know you felt something, agreed with some single thought I have recorded here. And with with that, you know me like you know your reflection.
Thanks for providing this for us
