So funny video. By the one anyone is capable to learn to play this properly would mean skip the next 10000 parties just to focus on practicing 😁😁
Wow 😳😳 fingering is proper and correct. Nice practice of classical music of Beethoven. So to say musical basics that emotions are very very funny 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣 in bethoven classical music.
I am so excited! It is on my birthday and just got tickets to attend!
You are so insanely good at the piano. I am speechless!
Man I wish I could go, it's too bad I live down here in Texas, that's just too far for me currently. Oh well, maybe the next one.
The hardest step is actually to get invited to a party.
yeah once people know you can play piano they will exclude you
No that’s just you
Or have friends
@@qdea_ 😂😂😂😂
😭 sad realityy
If I did this I would impress myself more than my crush
Relateable
i tried it with a bit easier of pieces (sospiro, four seasons, modified kalinka), but my crush went up and played winter wind....
Same
Frr
@CrackedPianoAlt i dont like to talk about it
After you practiced this for 10yrs, and finally you got the chance to invite to a party with a piano available, when you speak to the host, he said： No, thank you.
*plays anyways until getting kicked out LOL*
@@itsshrimp91 And find out WHY he denied: It is COMPLETELY out of tune and only for decoration.
@@rainerzufall689 so true 😂 I know way more people that use pianos as a piece of furniture than I do pianist
EMOTIONAL DAAMAGE
Duh 😂 lol nobody wants a piano accompaniment at a party. I love the piano but it's only a chick magnet if you are
I got invited to her party, and there was a handsome guy talking to her. I played this and the next thing i know is that im at her wedding party.
playing the organ for your buddy.
YOOOO
Lol
as a guest?
@@lunlun1042yea I think that’s what he meant
You are that cousin my dad always compares me to
Ay yo, Huge fan, cuzz we can't afford an electronic one
Average. Ling Ling can play the piano and the violin at the same time
It re-recommended to me and then i saw steven he. Nice!
I knew I'd find you here sooner or later
you should take his advice man
“Fantasy impromptu is so easy”….. spoken like a true Asian pianist lol
It is through.
I’m an Asian kid who is 2 years old. I have a phd at Harvard on biomedicalphysicalmatheticalengineering. I can confirm Fantasie Impromptu is super easy. If you want to come out of your mothers fetus alive, you must play fantasie impromptu blindfolded and in reverse.
@@liviu445 in a seriousness youre right
@@sockclicker i agree, i don't understand how people think that piece is very difficult, have they even seen Mazeppa?.
@@juanjuan5698 true
The fact that he is playing and acting out the expressions of the audience is soo freakin impressive
Facts. He’s so tallented
@@boss0054 he practiced a lot*
I've been playing piano for 6 years and I'm pretty sure I cannot mimic a fraction of his power.
I have been for 10 years And Im not even close
But just remember the number one rule in life, there’s always an asian better in what you’re doing
Same, he’s too good
@@isamhadjih Sadly I am a Asian who'll always be worse
Same after like 13 years 😅
Plot twist:
She's deaf.
lmao bruv
I don't think I have ever seen a verified comment go so unnoticed
Dark humor is great
Ostia que haces aqui
Ouch.
Plot twist : your crush can play better than you 💀
Edit : ok so, I would like to clarify something for the few people that didn't understand. The ''you'' I used at the end of my sentence is not for the youtuber, it's for us like, it's for the viewers in general. I hope you do understand that now.
My case hahaha
@@meatman3981 lol
@@meatman3981 R.I.P
that ain't gonna happen

My dad was a concert pianist, and devoted 14 years to Rachmaninoff and Liszt, and you played his two favorite pieces I remember hearing as a kid. Thank you, my friend
POV: *You’re at a party and hear Moonlight Sonata*
“Hey I know that guy I just saw him on YT!”
_Accidentally impresses the handsome guy instead of the crush_
Exactly - leaves with the guy :)
Was that not the goal to begin with?
And that handsome guy asked him if he would like to accept him as his disciple.
LOL
Impress your crush failed! Better luck next time...
My goals are beyond your understanding
@@michiokenji9584 task failed successfully
I love how he's talkin like we could all hop on a piano and do this
Right, it's not that hard lol
You can’t? Part of growing up as an asian
I would consider myself pretty good at piano but he’s on a whole other level
what, you haven't been learning piano since five minutes after you were born? slacker.
It's just a moon light sonata lol.
"Prelude in C-Sharp minor in G minor style" A crossover that I didn't know I needed in my life
You're so talented and your laugh is contagious! 😂 Much love brother!
Haha thanks!!
Isn't this
1. Impress your crush's mom
2. Crush's mom tells her to meet up with you to practice piano
3. You meet with her to 'practice piano'
4. Profit
10/10 plan
99/10
But then you finger the wrong minor…
But then your eleventh finger goes into the wrong place 😳
@@krispy1641 i am wheezing
Sounds like a pretty solid strategy. I think I'll go take 30 years of piano lessons and give it a try.
ROFLMAO, now you can try to score on some ELDERLY ladies. Good luck!
Notify me if it works
Just use simply piano bro. Ive only been using it for 5 days and I can already play La Campanella!!
🤣🤣🤣
@@Kenville225 🤣🤣🤣 worked for me too... and guys, I'm only 6 years old!!!
Instructions unclear, accidentally got asked to play piano at her wedding to the handsome guy.
Ah yes, my fantasy in my head as I stand awkwardly in the corner at said party 😂😂😂
I love his chaotic energy during the video. Hilarious commentary during a fantastic performance will attract anyone ☝🏻
You: plays River Flows in You
The guy she tells you not to worry about:
😅
Yiruma is the best.
Love your videos! Especially the classical music quizzes!! :)
that def was gonna be my first option 💀
😂😭
The fact that he can talking, joking while playing is freakin impressive
At the same time I wish he could shut up
@@wojtylamariusz indeed, i would like and watch again version where he is not talking... plays like a pro, talks like spoiled brat...
Yup. I can play like that but if I even tried to say one sentence while doing so I’d instantly fail.
I sure wish I could do that! Talk and play... WOW
I think you got her! ❤️
His maniacal laughing while describing this and playing it with ease is awesome. Your at least three years behind on training before you can play this all from memory to half of the level he can play with one hand. Still awesome to hear him rip something for fun.
Charming, super talented and I’m in❤️. Your crush is SO blessed. Thank you for lighting up the world with your warmth!
Me: *plays this piece*
Gets applauds
Hot guy: *plays even better piece*
Gets louder applauds
Other Asian kid: Oh yes, I distincly remember playing this in *preschool*
Asian kid: starts playing Etudes de Paganini No.4 S.140 with one hand and a foot
@@RSTDRO 💀😭
He starts playing la campanella
@@rudro5784 la campanella isn't that hard.. well it's hard but there's way more harder pieces such as the 1838 version, 1838 4th and 6th etude, sorabji sonata 5, opus clavicebafheidndne or something.
@@RSTDRO really!??demn i am an amateur,so thanks. Looks like i made a spelling mistake too. Thnks again!
I was always afraid if after 5 minutes of flexing, your crush comes in then shows up her technique by all the better and harder pieces that you can't play
Edit: OMG Guys thanks you guys so much for 2k likes. I've never been so far like this...
Then you can nerd out about piano with your crush, having similar interests is already a win
Lol, I love this plot! But the most handsome guy comes in an showing his skill too by all he's the best.
I'm self taught for the past 2.5 years and she takes lessons. I'm never flexing on her ever.
And that would be a absolute victorious for you
If you think it's your loss if a girl is better than you at something, you don't deserve to be with her.
this man just mocked and demolished my pride for playing piano for 2 years. love the mashup dude!!
Lionel: “You don’t wanna play something too hard”
Also Lionel: *plays moonlight sonata 3rd movement*
I guess its easy for him
@VoisTD yeah that’s true, he’s such a good pianist it’s crazy
It’s not that hard trust me - It’s just fast arpeggios
That's one of the easiest pieces he plays here - and it's just the beginning, which isn't even the hard part.
@@StarBlastRobloxandMore btw Fanataisie is easier than Moonlight 3rd Mvmt right many people say so
The fact Lionel can do all this without looking whilst talking is just amazing
It's mainly prove that he's talented but mainly practiced a lot. Both...
Anyone can play with their eyes closed if they practise
@@reii1812 yeah it's all muscle memory really lol
@@axyspianostudio yeah, million of practice are paid off
And while talking none the less. And to add the cherry on top while laughing.
You can do this. But if you aren't a classical pianist, but you can improvise: Ask the crowd for a key to play in and maybe for a short melody. Second or third time ask your crush ^^. If she likes piano music she'll be impressed!
I don't only love your play Mr. Yu, but also your personality, you are awesome!

@@montythemetalman yes, don't ◉‿◉
You're
rewatching this and I’d like to imagine that when professional pianists have parties together it just ends up becoming a piano competition to take one girl home lol
Nobody wants to go home. The music is more important than sex.
@@lambsauce1468 the music is sex
I found myself in a pro musician's home for Christmas one time and all the guests were musicians and it was nothing but this, except with the general goal of gradual one-ups-man-ship. No one skips to Rachmaninoff, but you know from the start that by the end *everyone* will be there (and on 6 different instruments to boot). Jawdropping and humbling...
@@JonathanFunk thats amazing but also kinda scary lol
I'm a piano player, and I promise you I am DONE with women. I would NEVER chase one. I already learned my lesson.
Lionel: *plays moonlight sonata third mvmnt
Also Lionel 3 minutes later:
'You don't want to play something too difficult.'
Oh it's not that bad.
Compared to some other pieces.
"You don't want to play something too hard." Bro.
You are drunk... or crazy... or both...
... but you definitely can play, it was a blast listening to, thank you. :)
Juan?
@@prodsani (?)
He is definitely drunk lol
Thought the same thing:)
🤣🤣🤣
It's how he's playing, joking, not even looking and still killing it better than 99.9% of players. Party ovation 😂
Correction!,,, 99.999%
Oh, you have such a wonderful energy! So happy! I love this!
I play piano too. But I hate talking while playing. I'm literally that concentrated. So good job. You don't even look
“This piece is easy” as he absolutely dominates the hardest song ive ever seen on piano
I practice every day. I know he's joking, but man... I got a looooooooong way to go...
Wait till you've seen liszt's etudes (original arrangement non simplified)
@@Paul-co9vk I learned la campanella a month ago
@@mikep5996 Campanella is very easy
@@Fursox shut up
I’m honestly more impressed that he can talk while playing such pieces.
It is really hard to talk while playing, I can tell you
Erm muscle memory ….?
@@diogenes6909 its still pretty hard lol
I agree with you. Very difficult.
@@IvanWongHongKong it is?
I love how he's having so much fun. Pure joy haha
I love how this is just him entertaining a fantasy completely different from ours, thinking about actually making these moves as opposed to us trying to figure out how to play that well.
Bro if I saw a piano at a party, I'd have to give up my crush.
Relatable af
Mmm i don't getcha
I love it when he plays something extremely complicated, calls it easy and then a simply piano ad kicks in.
💀
@MF ZEN Fantasie Impromptu is not easy to say the least...
you litterally just played through my entire "favourites from classical" playlist
Love your sense of humor! With all that talent and a certain amount of humility(?😊) your fan base will definitely increase. 😀👍🥰🎶
Thank you for sharing this delightful video!🙏❤️
the fact that you can speak while playing so fast just means your a pro
how tf do i live up to this
sammmmeee, ive been playing for like 5 years and I can only play moonlight and un sospiro. lol
Step 1, you have to be Asian
My possible guess is muscle memory
@@princerosevelt it is
You're a demon....you probably won't have to
You’re laugh is so contagious haha my mans vibing
Verified
Offffffl
Your* sorry I had to
7:51 OMG, that "Prelude in C-sharp minor in G minor style" was really impressive, it was insane, dude!
I had to watch you again my guy. I hope you're as happy in life as you are in this film. Masterful!
At this point I don't even know what's harder. Playing this whole thing what he just played, idk what to even call it or finding a way to impress your crush in another way.
kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk best comment
The name of the piece he played is Moonlight Sonata
How to impress your crush in a couple steps
Step 1: Practice the piano for 10 years without stopping for food/water/the bathroom/ anything whatsoever.
Step 2: Have complete and total mastery over the piano.
Step 3: Cry yourself to sleep cause your crush outplayed you at the party.
Lol funny thing about this comment to me, is the fact that ive played the piano for almost 10 years, started at 6 and now im turning 16 in a week
@@sonnit8223 great for you
@@sonnit8223 Find a girl and impress her.
@@sonnit8223 i have played for like 9 years soon an began when i was 4
Step 3 should be actually to get invited to party
First time on your channel... love the energy. You are hilarious AND an incredible pianist. All while acting out the reactions of your imaginary audience. That girl you're trying to impress better be worth it.
And you can talk and joke while you do this! Mind blown.
Its like his hands belong to someone else. He’s laughing and all and still perform perfectly, I love this
@@chopholtz4950 Still not every good piano player can talk while doing so.
Friend of mine learned drums with exercises that forced him to do something completely different (like reading a book or reciting a poem) while still keeping his rhythm. Piano players aren’t taught that usually.
Those are jesus's fingers
@@chopholtz4950 Bro wtf is your point. That you need practice to learn something? Like no shit Sherlock.
@@magicmulder That isn't a fair comparison. It's harder to concentrate while playing drums then what it is when playing the piano, since the times are stricter, and you have to keep the tempos rights. Plus, reading something takes more concentration than just speaking, since you have to physically and mentally look at something else.
@@ryuxy032 Huh? You don't have to keep the tempo right on a piano?
Wow! If your crush isn't there to congratulate you after all of that, then she's not the right one for you.
Plot twist: she wanted a chill guy who didn't just awkwardly try and take over a party to show off and ruin the vibe
@@tonygreif4931 definitely not the girl for him then
@@sarasweightlossjourney4798 exactly
Perfect game plan. Only one problem: skill issue.
This is actually genius, you'll practice playing the piano for 10 years minimum to get this good and by the time you're ready your crush will be old, married, a parent, addicted to drugs or all of the above and you won't have any interest in her anymore. EZ
This man is a genius.
I've never laughed so hard at a classical mockup - it seems so official but any piano player sees it as the true meme that it really is
This man is a legend.
I play piano as a bit of a secondary instrument, but I don't get it at all. The commentary was making me cringe a little if anything. Is it some kind of piano community inside joke I'm not privy to?
@@ossiehalvorson7702 it's not that deep haha, just enjoy the music XD
@@ossiehalvorson7702 No, its just that if you know the pieces from listening, or have every played one or more of them, what he played was simplified , that's all. But to an unknowing listener their brain would process it like "hey, that sounds like....." and not knowing the intracacies of the original pieces would happily march on to nirvana.
@@ossiehalvorson7702 i mean it made me cringe a little too, but if it DIDNT make me cringe it wouldnt have been funny

I love how he takes every piece that's written in c sharp minor and plays it without stopping.
Edit: I know that not all the pieces are in c sharp minor, it's just the mass majority.
And thanks for all the likes🙂
Un Sospiro is in F major I think
@@MiScusi69 good point, I didn't notice that
@@boozeblaster6620 no its in E flat flat flat

And then the two of you become best bros, ignoring your crush entirely

Kiss kiss, fall in love.

Definitely better plot twist than anything on Netflix
I’d 100% try this out.
If I knew how to play the piano
If the house had a violin sitting in the corner then I’d be set, but I don’t think such a situation has or will ever arise
@@thatpersonsmusic have faith, I've seen a violin in the corner of the room at a girls party, I took the piano option cause I can't play violin, but your day will come
imagine watcing musical basics and not knowing how to play, its simple..... BECOME ASIAN GANG
Same bruh
@@thatpersonsmusic As for me, I don't think a party would randomly have a french horn in the corner
And even if it did, not in a million years would they let me use their mouthpiece
how tf did you just call Fantasie Impromptu easy?!?!?! My dude..... the left and right hand are in two different time signitures!!!! You are a absolute capital G no lower case business here. Mad respect! Sincerely 30+ year pianist.

Crazy brilliant!
I already gave a thumbs up just for the epic intro. Great work!
Yeah and when you start to play the piano, you will find out, that this old furniture hasnt seen a tuner in years and every note you play is really off the limits. Everybody in the room has left and your crush also.
The way he laughs, plays, and how genuine he is is just so entertaining and hilarious I just love it! And his talent- THATS SOMETHING ELSE!!!! SO FREAKING GOOD AND SO FREAKING FUNNY! REmember God loves you all! And yeah, my name is Lionel...
Very amazing name!
I love how chaotic this whole thing is, I can tell there is no script and that he was having such fun
seems like he's having the time of his life :)
Bro raised intensity so hard - that even dog came over.
Can we just take a second and appreciate how good combining Rachmaninovs preludes sound?
is this totally improvised or can we find the sheet music somewhere?
@@olehn2386 he just mixed up a buch of song with probably improvised transitions, so theres probably not a sheet music for this
This is the most shameless piano show-off tutorial I've ever seen. But dude, with what you delivered, you have the right to do that 🤣
Still one of the very best piano video of all time for me ( and I consider myself a pianist)! After 100+ view of this video, HOW Did You Manage To Speak Easily Like That While Playing All Those Master Pieces?! I cant beleive this one. Looks real. :( Speech is so funny perfect and perfect!
When he said "Gathers everyone" at 01:05 it was so enthusiastic that even the dog got closer!

True story
OH MY GOD! THIS IS MY FAVOURITE TH-cam VIDEO I HAVE EVER SEEN! THANK YOU FOR MAKING ME DIE LAUGHING FOR 9 MINUTES STRAIGHT
I've never been so hyped for Moonlight Sonata
I’m 44. I grew up in a house with 7 musicians. I’ve been playing and teaching music my whole life. Despite your jokes (which had me laughing), your playing was so beautiful. I haven’t been moved by music like this in quite some time. Thank you for your years of commitment to music.
You could’ve easily rickroll everyone at the party
r
true
5:31
As someone who spent 2 years mastering Un Sospiro I can confirm that he is lying
love how he has an insane backstory haha
I love how genuinely he's having fun. That's a beautiful thing that is such a rarity with piano players it seems these days.
Music doesn't have to describe your emotion. If I play sad pieces its genuinely just because they are beautiful. And being a performer like the guy in the video also helps. If an introvert is having fun at a piano you would have to look close to see that. Just because the music brings out an emotion out of you doesn't mean it's the same emotion for everyone.
I try to be like Liberace. just smile and play a killer song but also move your audience!
Seriously?? Have you seen those anomalies of humans? Lmfaaao
The way he’s so animatedly explaining while playing extremely complicated pieces is actually so adorable I can’tomfnsjgsgk
As I have said recently - about the word "quit" this particular video opens up his personality which becomes very attractive. It opens it up well; how could we EVER do without it ??? I never miss one .
Loved this so much 😂❤
I love how he says every word, His channel is everything to him and to his fans. His music is just so perfect and sounds like it. I wonder how long he has learned the piano. He is so experienced and knows what he is talking about. I just don't think chopin's pieces are easy- Love your content and work. Keep it up. Nearly 1M Subs, I know you'll do a 1M special and can't wait for it to come out.
Basically just play every C-sharp minor piece ever lol
And then throw in a random D-flat Major for contrast
Amazing and so entertaining!
This is great- Love it
He is really an EPIC and SKILLED pianist. I love the way he play those complicated pieces like they are very easy to play, just like a kid there and just want to make fun. Without sheet music, without looking at the keyboard, without messing up the pedaling or tempo. I'm sure that he play this instrument more than 15 years. I enjoy your videos and playing a lot. I guess most of your fans who love classical/pop music have the same thing to say.
It's not the years but quality of practice. If you dedicate yourself, you can play this level within 1.5-2 years.
@@kaberigomes2117 are you a pianist?
@@PilotPianoGuy Yes and no. I started playing the keyboard and then the piano. But don't play professionally, if that's what you mean by pianist.
@@kaberigomes2117 a bit longer than that
@@fidsvids4760 For you maybe it took longer than what i suggested. I understand. So it depends on the individual, you could say. 👍
It’s actually really good advice. It’s not about the piano really, although amazing, its more about the confidence you radiate when in the zone of your craft. You’re always going to be perceived as confident in an environment you “control” or feel comfortable in. And if all that fails, well… hope that you get reincarnated into a piano prodigy like this guy and just follow the guide note by note key by key. As for me, I’ll take solace in being able to play the C major scale!
