I've played piano for only a year now and I'm 16 and I learned this in 2 months or so. All I can say is if you take the time required and calm your mind, you WILL be able to play anything. Just look at the notes. Decrypt them. Take them on 1 chord at a time. Eventually you will have the whole thing memorized. It's crazy right? I never thought I was gonna be able to play this, but now I have it all memorized by heart so just keep up everyone. Practice does make perfect! Good luck everyone!
Dear Kyle, you really insipring me the way you played and would like to say thank you so much. I'm almost 50 year old, when I was young I don't have the chance to learn piano. I just started learn to play piano few months ago and for those who love & play music instrument, don't give up and go, keep it up. All I can said practise make perfect, I'm self thought by myself being practising for 5 hours a day for 4 months to finished up the song. I had breakthrough by memorised it and now without looking at the music sheet, I can performed to my friend's party and they loved it very much. Great job Kyle, the improvisation that you had done for the song, eventhough my son's piano teacher was so amazed. Thanks once again.
Lai Fong Woo I can advice you to understand the chords and the different keys and also get familiar with left and right hand patterns. once you get that and you have a bit of feeling for the music, you can play a lot of songs by ear very well and dont get lost countless of hours in reading and memorizing the keys.
They played this sing at my niece's funeral. This was the prettiest, most sincere version I have ever heard. I started bawling in the middle of it. Thank you for playing, Kyle. You are truly an inspiration. Keep doing what you are doing. (:
This is my grandfather's song. He wanted me to play this on his 50th Golden Anniversary, but I didn't get to. However, I'm planning to play this for his birthday. This cover is just making me cry. It's so beautiful.
I performed this cover as a part of a HeadSpace fundraiser in a town of around 8 thousand people. We raised over 30 thousand dollars that night. Thank you so much for this cover Kyle, it is absolutely perfect.
I'm the same, I'm 15, and also at in official intermediate level (Grade 5 Distinction). I first wanted to seriously take up piano about 2 years ago after seeing your videos. I am originally a trumpetier so had the ability to read sheet music, so taught myself through to Grade 3 standard then got lessons. I'm now working in a 4* Hotel playing lounge music. I'm learning a lot of your pieces/arrangements for that occupation, so you should be proud that you've instilled that in me.
i know everyone says this, but you are truly amazing, you are an insperation to everyone. i sat on my pc and listened to this for about 3 hours, well done Kyle!
This is, hands-down, the best solo piano arrangement I've heard of this song. This arrangement has a lot of dynamic contrast and makes use of the entire range of the piano. I really should go learn to play this...
Well, I got to playing the third page of this song, felt the pain shoot up my arm from overstretching my hands, and realized I am not kylelandry. Two words to describe his performance: unworldly skills!
Holy crab i am 11years too late!!!! What did i do. I love this song so much and you too. Know i saw that u did a cover. I liked it before starting the vid. And obviously i love it. It gave me so much chills cause it reminded, and reminds me even after the 10th listening of my years ago. Thanks kyle keep it up. I dont care if you dont read that i only wanted to say that you are one of the few people that inspire me everytime i watch them. Thank you for your support to me. You dont know how much you are helping me without doing anything then youtube and your amazing arrangenents.
years ago, this was a great inspiration for me, to learn piano und now I learn this piece with my music teacher. Thank you master, for the inspiration !!
All your songs bring me to tears. You are an amazing pianist. I play the piano and I dream of following in your footsteps or should I say fingertips lol. I love music it is my passion and my gift from God, I was wondering if you could maybe give me some pointers on where you get your music?
gracie mcneill That's my speciality. Almost everything I play was arranged by myself. A lot of the older ones are transcribed now if you look hard enough :)
well all that practice paid off... seriously you are truely gifted, well done on your achievement, how wonderful for you to let us share your music in our living rooms thankyou so much (uk)
It's just amazing ! I listened to all your pieces and you're just an amazing pianist. I wish that I could play like you one day. I know that some people are just talented but also all is about practicing.
Simply beautiful! PLEASE do more of Josh's songs. I would love to hear your version of "Awake" or "Remember When It Rained" or "February Song." You have such a gift. Thanks for sharing it with us.
i litterally have nothing to say, Youve perfected the completely unimaginable, again. I LOVE your work. I am probably your biggest fan... I cannot go one day without listening to one of your peices. They just make my day :)
Kyle, you raise me up with this arrangement. (J. Groban's voice at the Hollywood Bowl also did so..) I so appreciate your fingers on those keys. It takes me away from some such sorrows that exist now..on our earth!
This is such a powerful piece Josh Groban is such a powerful singer and I always thought of you as a powerful pianist, so I always imagined what it would be like if you played this piece. I had this thought like last year. Never noticed that you played this piece until now, but GREAT STUFF!
Happy Holidays!!! That song...I has listening to that song in my mp3 yesterday, I really love it, you did a great job, I really enjoy your videos, especially this new one.
omg Are you serious? This song too? There is nothing you can't play. You are truly amazing. I mean, you've played Utada Hikaru, "You Raise Me Up", and Canon (I see it under the "Related Videos" column). Wow truly amazing. Every time I watch and listen to your videos, it inspires me to become a pianist as well. Thank you. You've made my day.
Am I the only person who finds it physically impossible to play the fast bits like Kyle - without injecting your fingers with steroids. Wow - admirable!
I Love this song and you played it with so much emotion that it was just sooo beautiful! I think you were perfect. One day I hope to master the " playing with emotion" just like you!
so a long time ago i had found this sound and i didn't know it was kyle landry and then a couple days ago i had found his version of dearly beloved from kingdom hearts and i had been listening to it since and then i found this again and i was like dude i had already discovered him before i knew i discover him... mind blown!
I love the emotion you play with and that you seem to really listen to what you're playing. Incredible. From one pianist to another, you have my admiration. Merry Christmas Kyle.
The music you produce is heavenly! This video made me cry! Thank you so much. This video reminds me of my grandparents who are up in the heavens. I play the piano too, but I only play by ear! I wish I could be as good as you :)
WOW! This was amazing! My eyes are watering, I'm almost crying. It was sooo beautiful! You're really an insperation for me. I hope, one day, I can play like you. B E A U T I F U L !!!
This is simply wonderful... this pianist is just amazing and has a great talent! His musical sensibility and expression are so deep and beautiful. The only bad point is about the piano itself... would it not be better on a real piano?
merry christmas kyle, thanks again for posting such wonderful work this past year, i know you've inspired many people with your music, and hope you continue to do so for a long while.
Great played. I also think we shal give credit for the composer Rolf Løvland from Norway for making this nice pice of music. Kyle Landry, you are awsome and one could only dream of having your talent. Best regards Ole Chr. Norway
prettty sure you are what inspired to play piano again. I'm so happy with taking up piano again and my goal is to play like you no matter how long it takes :) You are amazing
You are amazing! I love this song so much and this arrangement made me fall deeper in love with it! You are an amazing piano player, please keep posting videos!
Keep doing what you do for the right reasons... never lose sight of your dream and you will always succeed in everything you do... "And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not" Galations 6:9 One day your efforts will be greatly recognised, so long as you keep it up and never give up. God Bless and Merry Christmas!
It's the best piano cover of "you raise me up" of all youtube !!! Very well done. Actually, I have the music sheet but not the same as yours. I would like to play it like you do !
