You do know this is a computer generated player. Look at the lack of shadows and there is no tonal difference on that black outfit. Look at the video on a bigger screen.
You still got this. As a pianist, it’s difficult sometimes to figure out where the mistakes lie and how to fix them, but with enough dedication and deliberate decision making you can pull it off. Don’t give up!
@@DownhillAllTheWay Omg, are you serious? You don't need to show me the score, I know this piece very well and I play it myself. Do you? Apparently not. So once again: this is a heavily simplified version.
It's been re-arranged for Marimba, leaving out many of the notes which the pianist plays with his left hand. Still, all in all it's a difficult piece, and this is very nicely arranged, as well as performed.
@@patriciareilly530 The video is 5:25 long, which can be described as 5 & 5 x 5 (555 - triple grace) and points to Galatians 5:25 - "If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit." The piece is opus 66, and there are 66 books in the King James Bible. 66 also points to Matthew 6:6, “But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly.” If you don't yet know God our Father through his Son, Jesus, then simply ask the Father to reveal his Son, Jesus, to you!
Right !! The algorithm recent showed amazing Accordion music that as a violinist I would have never seen. Goodness , so many amazing talented musicians are out there that don’t get enough exposure
Omg, this guy's head - contains the Chopin reduction, the total awareness of his hands, the keyboard, and the sticks, no matter their angle. Plus the dynamics. He's amazing!
Fantasie Impromptu is hard enough on the piano, you didn't have to go and do it with only 4 mallets lol. This is INSANE- I have seen a LOT of marimba performances, and this one is absolutely one of the best recordings of any piece I have heard so far in my life. The musicality + perfect note accuracy + insane technical ability come together so flawlessly it's unbelievable. The fast sections (especially 0:12) are pulled off so well; I'm surprised it's even possible to do something like that, let alone make it sound so good. The arrangement helps out so much with that too. All around amazing performance and piece
It's still harder on the piano, because he's not doing here the bass triplets, which would make it 3 against 4. He's doing only 2 against 1. Granted, it's not easy on a marimba even like that. But rhythmically it can never compare to what the piano has to do.
Плям-плям😂!Цирк,да и только.Бедный Шопен.Рояль звучит и дышит,резонирует и живёт.А здесь мы имеем что?Нам не говорят-какая музыка!Нам говорят:"Посмотрите,как я умею".
fantasisie is actually very repetitive, and you only need to play one note at time. It's actually one of the most easiest, if not for polyrythm and fast speed. But if you take the middle section as a seperate piece, it is definitely the top 1 easiest.
5 octaves :) They’re slowly becoming the standard size for the instrument, thanks largely to Keiko Abe’s collaboration with Yamaha. You are correct though; most marimbas have 4.3 octaves.
OK I don't know how many of you do not realize just how impossible this is. I hope this dude has been recruited by every drum and bugle corps in existence. Simply not humanly possible.
I saw it, but I cannot comprehend it. How is this possible???😮 I cannot even begin to understand how this is possible. Some people are not human but super-human. Just lost for words. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
What a nice vibe of a spectacular tune. After years I still can't even play it that good on piano, where all you have to do is push the damn buttons, which are perfectly finger sized mind you.
Holy mamma! That is incredible! I know a guy that plays Latin Jazz on one of those. He's so freaky talented, but even he would be floored if he heard this. Just WOW!
Person 1: I'd like you to play Chopin's Fantaisie Impromptu op66 please Piano player: OK Person 1: But not on a piano Piano player: Er, OK Person 1: I'd like it on an instrument many times the size of your piano keyboard Piano player: ah, OK Person 1: and you can only use 4 fingers Piano player: oh...OK Person 1: and you can't use fingers Piano player: well.......OK Person 1: you have to use 4 sticks with fluffy ends on them Piano player: WTF...that's not even possible! Pablo Blanco enters the room: "Hold my beer" Simply breathtaking in execution and emotion ♥
Wow! Wow! Wow! It's not just the incredible technical feat, but the amazing musicality that you bring to this piece that is astonishing. The use of rubato and dynamic subtlety. You are an incredible musician! Bravo!!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Now this is what I call BRILLIANT!!!! Amazing technical skills this young man has on this instrument. This performance needs to be seen all over the planet.... I hope wherever he is located he is gaining tremendous wealth for this kind of talent. 🙏🏼
Wow! I've tried this just on piano and it's difficult. Thats with fingers. With four mallets stuck between your fingers, this is a next level of insanely difficult.
4:07 I don't know how the instrument works, so I spent 5 minutes puzzled at how he was playing the bass notes, because I didn't see his hand move to the left. Turns out his left hand is just that fast, and he barely turns his head to his left. So my untrained eye couldn't keep up. It was like watching the speed and misdirection of a stage magician. Amazing!
I still cannot believe what I have just witnessed. 😮 This is so incomprehensible that it were impressive even as a computer animation. I bow to you, young man. Bravo!
Wow, your technique alone is so impressive as to make me hold my breath, but then your phrasing and musicality elevate it to another level. Thank you for this brief delight in my day. 🙏♥️
Absolutely fantastic and splendid. Can't imagine how this musician can handle all of the mallet sticks at once. I learned to play this on piano and that was very difficult. This guy doesn't miss a beat! I heard a group in Kansas play at a church with a trio of marimbas. I was in heaven. Entranced with their brilliance! I feel the same with this musician!! Thank you for posting this!
Oh myyy... Where was I for these 2 year... For those 5 seconds that I waited for the ad, i was thinking that I will be super impressed if he managed to pull this piece. But now I regret, why I didn't watch the complete ad. Superb.. amazing.. mind blowing ❤❤
@@billp3598 If you liked Nadja Dornik, check out Varvara Ivanova's recording. Unfortunately it's only audio, but it's such a compelling performance, and I argue it rivals Kissin's both expressively and technically.
I am totally stunned by this performance of one of my favourite composer's most popular pieces. How does this musician manage such a rendition? I'm sending him the greatest admiration and respect from England.......(I think you are simply magnificent, young man!)
God has certainly gifted you. I’m overwhelmed by your talent. If you are also the composer for the marimba, I’m totally awestruck. Thank you for sharing your gift!
Потрясающся координация движений!!!! Вот это мастерство!!!! Но при этом очень экспрессивная и лиричная манера исполнения!!! Он стал бы прекрасным академическим исполнителем, например пианистом, но быть исполнителем на этом инструменте - это быть уникальным.
I still can't believe how precise marimba players get with their mallet placement with two per hand going that fast. Amazing.
I cannot comprehend it either.
Just totally unbelievable!
Lovely

@@nowaysayheyWell, that's what I thought from the very beginning. His fingers don't somehow seem natural.
❤
I never would have thought this could be accomplished !
Despite nearly 50 years of trying, I can't play this with 10 fully functioning fingers. You do it with four mallets. Well done, indeed.
Of course a simplified version
You still got this. As a pianist, it’s difficult sometimes to figure out where the mistakes lie and how to fix them, but with enough dedication and deliberate decision making you can pull it off. Don’t give up!
@@argi0774 Is it? Here's the score. th-cam.com/video/-L6jkNPDqTg/w-d-xo.html
Can you point out where this version is simplified? I can't see it.
@@DownhillAllTheWay Are you deaf? Or blind? Or both? Are you really serious?
@@DownhillAllTheWay Omg, are you serious? You don't need to show me the score, I know this piece very well and I play it myself. Do you? Apparently not. So once again: this is a heavily simplified version.
This is difficult enough to play on the piano, but on the marimba it is absolutely incredible! What amazing talent there is in this world!
Hör mal Martin Grubinger ….😊
He needs to play four notes with each hand, not just two. This is done on the piano, not marimba.
It's been re-arranged for Marimba, leaving out many of the notes which the pianist plays with his left hand. Still, all in all it's a difficult piece, and this is very nicely arranged, as well as performed.
Love it when the TH-cam algorithm delivers in a big way. I was stunned. Phenomenal
After years of watching these videos I am convinced that the TH-cam algorithm is the hand of God.

this is by far the most impressive thing ive ever seen on youtube.
Agreed
Well, you’re obviously not a Taylor Swift fan then.
lol jk. I used to call myself a marimbist. This is breathtaking top to bottom.
Me too!
You‘d better listen …than „see impressive things“. Not so impressive to LOOK at IMO. Sound is better.
What’s weird it still sounds normal note-wise, despite there only being 4 notes played at any one time
Omg, this guy's head - contains the Chopin reduction, the total awareness of his hands, the keyboard, and the sticks, no matter their angle. Plus the dynamics. He's amazing!

Once you get the 3 against 4 down, it’s a piece of cake on the piano.

Can there possibly be a more difficult instrument and selection of music than here? Kudos to the musician!
我敲馬林巴也快十年了，我覺得這不是最難的
Wow. Been a musician for 55+ years. I’ve never seen a marimba this large much less someone perform such a challenging composition so expertly. Bravo!
Given how extensive he needs to move his arms and how large the marimba seems, I think he is just a bit short hahaha

I don’t believe what I just watched- incredible talent and maybe a “little” practice 👏👏👍
Totally mind boggling. The human brain created by God is totally amazing.
A simple "like" is not enough for such marvelous talent. God bless you!!
A thousand likes wouldn't be enough. His talent is simply astonishing
OK I don't know how many of you do not realize just how impossible this is. I hope this dude has been recruited by every drum and bugle corps in existence. Simply not humanly possible.
Magnificent ❤
The physical precision of this execution is totally amazing.
This guy plays so musically........with such great expression and phrasing!
marimbaの持つ魅力
素晴らしい～❤🎉
👏👏👏👏👏
He doesn't miss a single note. Absolutely AMAZING !!
すごすぎる。たった4本のスティックでこの曲を弾くのはもはや狂気です。アレンジも素晴らしい。
なんと温かみのある音でしょう。ピアノで弾くと冷たい曲に聞こえますがマリンバはとても優しい。素晴らしい演奏をありがとう！！
I saw it, but I cannot comprehend it.
How is this possible???😮
I cannot even begin to understand how this is possible.
Some people are not human but super-human.
Just lost for words.
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
I am totally blown away. I don't think some people understand how technically good you have to be to play this so well. Incredible.
ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. I love playing it on the piano, so I know how much he is enjoying, too.
I didn't even know this was possible to play on Marimba. Sounds fantastic!
ピアノ以外の楽器でこの曲を演奏をして感動したなんて信じられません。
10代の頃ピアノで弾きましたが，あなたの演奏技術とフレージングのすばらしさにしばらく言葉を失いました。
He truly understands the beauty of Chopin; it's far beyond his technical brilliance -- it's great music making.
Well-said!
1:20 the musicality of this section is so incredibly beautiful I can’t get over it

This is so good it’s literally hard to believe it’s real. Not only is it technically astounding, but the musicality/phrasing is fantastic
This is gonna be one of those videos everyone comes back to over the years
すごいですね。あの幻想即興曲をこんなにも見事に木琴で演奏するとは。ピアノとはまた違った、柔らかい音色が心に沁みました。ありがとう。
イヤホンで聴くと低音の響きがものすごく心地いい
Perfectly lovely musically, and a visual feast watching this musician work.
This musician certainly must be an internationally recognized artist.

As a pianist who plays this piece well, I can honestly say this arrangement is impressive.
Astounding! Not just technique, but unsurpassed musicianship! Tear-rending; Chopin would have been delighted! 🌹🌹🌹
There is only a single word which can describe his amazing technique: WTF.
We need this to be captured in slow motion
WTF is three words ....... just saying.

腕が４本ないとできない様なことをしていて本当に尊敬します。
どんなに努力値したらこんなに素晴らしい演奏ができるんだろうか、
私に見えていないだけで実は腕が４本あるのでは？
You are amazing!!! It blows mind that humans are capable of such greatness. Sending my love and deepest admiration.
Mind-blowing. Surprised on how he can play the middle melody legato with only four mallets.
Wow, your technique alone is so impressive as to make me hold my breath, but then your phrasing and musicality elevate it to another level. Thank you for this brief delight in my day. 🙏♥️
今曲は1960年代、私がまだ中学生の頃、給食準備中の時間帯にいつも流れていました。
私には、とても思い出深いF•ショパンのピアノ作品です。
マリンバによる名演で最後まで、聞き入ってしまいました。
*I'm speechless....such a wonderful performance!!!!!*
iExcelente! Técnica impecable. Tremendo arreglo .👍👍
Playing just the two mallet version and the melody is hard enough now he is adding the baseline that is crazy. Mad respect.
Mesmerising, amazing !! Such precision and smoothness! Yikes. That must have been hours and hours of practicing. Bravo! Thanks a lot for sharing ! 👌🎶🌟
This could well be the most remarkable musical performance I have EVER seen. PLEASE someone assure me this was/is REAL and not digitally enhanced?

Chopin would have approved of this marimba rendition!

Bravo! Mit den Fingern auf dem Klavier das Stück zu spielen ist schon hohe Kunst. 4 Schlägel gegen 10 Finger 👏
This is a year old!! Why is this the first time I've seen this
“In his grace, God has given us different gifts for doing certain things well.” 🎉
Just came here from watching it on the Harp, both amazing. To think Chopin wanted this music destroyed after his death.

Now THAT is some elite percussion skills!! Bravo!
