TH-cam and other streaming platforms are huge for young composers. It used to be, we'd write something and maybe it would be performed once by a local ensemble or university student. Now we can put the piece online and it gets "performed" endless times so people all over the world can enjoy it.
So, there ARE people out there, still writing such beautiful music as this!! I'm very glad to see and especially to hear your work, you are extremely talented. I write songs, but I've never composed anything like this, and I don't think I could if I tried. Thanks for sharing, it's an awfully hard profession today. I hope you will find great success.
How beautiful is this emoji combo! The hearts and sparkles look like they're coming out of the hands, it's the cutest thing I've seen today. It's nice to have so many kind people together. ^^
Don't you dare to let yourself get discouraged from composing. You made me hear Chopin and Debussy at the same time. Let yourself run wild and give us more music
I was so touched by the “please” in the title, and after listening, I can say with confidence that I was touched not only by the title, but also by the sound of this wonderful prelude

A view count over 150,000 is a huge compliment on TH-cam. When people say that you sound like other composers, but they never agree which composer... that means Soupelin achieves a unique style.
I wonder how those old geniuses would have advanced classical music if they had written only in the style of composers who lived 100+ years before them instead of being on the cutting edge.
@@steveeliscu1254There are plenty of people doing this right now. Nobody has an obligation to push the envelope, music is about making what you want to make. The entire medium isn't going to suffer because one person wants to sound like dead composers.
I have always loved to improvise on the piano and not too long ago I decided that I wanted to write my own compositions. It isn't easy at all, but man, every time I try to compose I look up to you
@@MelitonSoupelinWould you consider explaining how you studied, & how you capture ideas long enough to get them written down? Did you go to school & practice many years? @MelitonSoupelin
@@FancyNoisesI listen to music very often; this helped me get familiar with composition devices. I also stayed away from composing larger works while I am in the learning phase. I compose a lot in my spare time, but only a small fraction of what I wrote entered the finishing stages.
@@IceSCream4u yeah, definetly Chopin. Structurally and rhythmically the A-theme is very Chopin like, but with a Debussy like character. This part 0:40 is also VERY Chopin. I can see the Rachmaninoff in the B-theme though.
DUDE WHAT this is AMAZING. I've been trying composition lately, and i was wondering where could i find like a new modern piano composer. You're like exactly what i was looking for! A modern composer but with a classical sound to it. This is an amazing work you're doing man, keep it up! You deserve all the followers you could ever get :)
I’m a composer myself, man, this is some beautiful work, don’t ever listen to „ today No one listens to classical”, it’s pure art, let The joy of endless Beauty of Piano fill people’s hearts, i wish u all The best
Actually super impressed. I know it's not the best to be compared to other people but this sounds like a union between the virtuosity of Chopin and the color-painting of Debussy. Impeccable phrasing and perfectly balanced ternary form. No note seems to be out of place. Marvelous! I'd love to hear something a bit more "modern" (how i hate that word) that manages to blend new harmonic horizons with the classical tradition.
Super amazing! Lots of talent. I just like this for what it is. A very well structured and coherent piece with flowing melodies. Patrick must be proud. I'm excited for the other 23 !!! ❤
semi-amateur music theory student here - love the structure here and choices of chords. the melody is so well done and the dynamic contrast while playing is great too!
Wow amazing ability and beautifully written sheet music! Well done and great credit due to you. Its absolutely lovely to see and a lovely piece of music.
Thank you for sharing this beautiful piece, and I wish you all the best on your journey to compose many more of these Preludes! ... Peace and Love! 🎼❤☮
This is absolutely amazing. If I listened to this blindly, I would've thought you were a composer from the early 20th century. You know the two types of neo-classical composers? You know, the ones that are really good and the ones that are... well... I wouldn't say they are bad, but listening to their music it just feels that they are missing something. Well, YOU HAVE THAT SOMETHING. Well done!
Beautiful composition… very moving and emotional. I love the handwritten manuscript too! It’s always fun to go back to paper and pencil after so many hours on the software!
Luminous and alternatively passionate Prelude, in a beautiful expressive mood, full of Joy and positive Energy, but always tenderly and fluently exposed. Bravo, very well crafted piece!
A composer/pianist myself, intrigued, I listened once on my phone, impressed, I listened again on my pc w/ good speakers, enchanted, I subscribed! Thank you" Keep it up ;-)
"Ooh, one of those sheet music meme videos where it devolves into something ridiculous and silly that subverts my expectations" but there is no memes, only sincere and elegantly composed music, which is exactly what it says it is.

This video has appeared in my home page for days and finally I decided do give it a try, and wow I didn"t expect such exquisite talent from a youtube video
What a lovely and charming piece! And this pristine handwriting! (that recalls memories of my 12 year old self trying to make my scores look like printed and spending hours writing a single page down.. Nowadays I'm happy when still able to read what I wrote down, haha!)
Thank you, Jonas! I also spend hours writing down one single page. The look of a neat manuscript page is sweet to the eyes and worth the trouble (in my opinion).
I am so glad I discovered a piece of contemporary classical music that actually sounds good, I really like the romantic influences. Congratulations for this beautiful composition ❤
This is brilliant and thank you so much for the dedication, I'm honored! Perfect prelude, looking forward to learning it :)

I came when the video was titled "Prelude in E Major | My Composition"

This was absolutely a very touching piece. My uncle touched me ten years ago. Thank you for composing this!
@@rift7573ur uncle what
this touched me in places the old man across the street couldn't
The fact multiple orchestral arrangements of this piece exists speaks volumes. I'd love to see this idea expanded on.
Thank you, once again, for your support for my work, Laurent! 😃
The power of "please" compelled me
We need more classical composers! I hope you'll get recognized for your talent, ans will be able to make a name for yourself.
The music schools and academys are pushing contemporary modern music. Unfortunatley its a sad time we are living in
they can learn all styles and still be really good. in this age we can be exposed to everything and just kick it fr

Serene, expressive, concise. You can almost taste the Debussy and Rachmaninoff influences, but still incredibly creative and unique. Brilliant!
Also some little Scott Joplin shades near the end
Nice. I also hear a bit of Gershwin in there, oddly enough?
YES, your three adjectives nailed it, I appreciate this much more than most of these midi composers

Refreshing, creative, and beautiful. Thank you for keeping this alive.
you're telling me this wasn't composed in the 19th century?? it's so wonderful!!
Sounds so much like a piece plucked straight from the 19th Century. Really beautiful
ill be honest, i just come back every day just to listen to this prelude, idk why it just caught so perfect the "Classical" essence...
This reminds me so much of when I started floating in mid air using my cursed energy, and then used my limitless technique.
This sounds like the absence of fear of growing up
Woah! I was wondering where are the modern day Chopins and Beethovens, and here you are!
