Hi! I love this channel because there are so many tutorials of really popular songs, like Taylor swift songs, which I love so much and I can learn it with the sheet music! It’s so hard to find popular sheet music for free and have awesome tutorials on the song I’m learning! I have a a sign request, Cruel Summer, by Taylor swift. It’s one of my favorite songs and super popular too! I hope you guys can take the time and make a video on how to play Cruel summer! Thank you so much!
Curious to see the sheet music of Sangah Noona rush E.
who the hell, and how the hell came up with Rush E?
Is so hard but I did it!without looking
Youuuuuuuuu
Amazing! Having those top tier aural skills is so useful for transcribing and composing - and I love Sangah's take on it :D
the way she got creative and turned it into something of her own was like watching magic happen
Sangah s insane, she learned the song so fast by itself
Now it’s got an official seal of approval
the man, the myth, the legend.
The creator approved. Truly a legend.
This was so much fun! It’s always great to be in the Pianote studio! 😉👍🏻
We love working with you Sangah! You are amazing🤩
Sangah, I'm sitting here in my living room replaying this for my brother, Rick. He is sitting there, wide eyed, fixated, and just said ".....daaammmnn...". Then he smiled and shook his head. Yeah, he's subscribed. 😎👊👊👊❤❤
Fantastic job Sangah! The way you analyzed the structure of Rush E was truly impressive 👍🎹🎼🎵🎶
True Musician! 😎
I have watched this over and over and will continue to watch it over and over. You're the best!
Honestly, the thing I love the most about this is how Sangah was clearly enjoying how utterly barmy the song is. She's already got a huge grin on her face as we head into the second B section and then just breaks as the "DUN! DUN! DUN! DUN!" keyboard slams happen, then she sees this wall of notes coming at her when the key changes and she just starts laughing even harder and even mimics the "EEEEEEEEE!" at the end.
Thanks for transcribing the reaction, I am blind and deaf so reading this helped a lot

@@huismus111he's just stating his opinion but go on
@@EagleGamerz He first states his opinion, then describes the video.
@@huismus111 it's more of an interpretation than a description and his opinion was based on his interpretation which is why it was necessary
The jazz version has so much character and uniqueness. This was absolutely incredible!
It's so beautiful!
The best part!
It's mind boggling how Sangah could dissect that song so quickly. Then play it through and make it even better with her own special flair. What an incredible artist we are all blessed to watch.❤
I remember her playing the Star Spangled Banner for the first time, by sight reading. "Da-da-da-da- da-da. Ok, I think I got it." She nailed it!
E
Not really, it's just being a musician
must have been a common chord progression (in different genre)
The video was edited, not in real time. There was no way to tell how long it took her.
If you didn’t already love Sangah, this would make you love her now. She’s an absolutely brilliant musician….and she’s fun, too.
Definitely!
love doesn't require anyone to do something, that's so disrespectful

I need to learn this song.
Damn, this will be cool
And do it while looking at the camera!
Yess
Omg please do. Stare into our soul while playing it!
Lendario lord
what I like about rush E is. even at the end where everything seems random. you can still hear the harmonics. this is pure talent to make a song with so much caccophony yet still being enjoyable
most of the notes near the end are extremely quiet, nearly silent
Thank Andrew Wrangell for creating such an insane song!
Wow… Sangah’s Rush E performance (including the jazzy variation) blew me away 🎹🔥
She is amazing!
Me too! I watched after you, but I'm probably right behind you. Loved the jazzy version. True Sangah.
It is absolutely impressive and entertaining watching a professional perform Rush E. And it looked like she was having a blast. Great stuff!
She was having sooo much fun!
That was fun. I love how she really doesn’t judge the song but takes it for what it is - a meme. Her process of recreating it was so fun to watch. I loved her rendition at the end when she stopped restricting herself to the simple chords of the original and just improvised.❤
The thing that's interesting about Rush E is how it is not a piano piece, but a MIDI piece. It uses the full power of MIDI as a format to compose percussion within the boundaries of the piano synthesizer as a MIDI output.
Yep! Literally impossible for a single human being to play without many, many edits!
Her notes had fewer than 5 bars and she played a whole composed song with an improvised piece at the end. Exceptional!
If you watch her weekly livestreams, you will know that she does this (i.e. improvising with a lead sheet) on a regular basis.
Love her attitude and message! Despite being an expert and master of her craft, she approaches it as a learning opportunity and is so humble. We're never too good/too big/too wise to learn something new.
"I know that I do not know."
Sangah is not just any professional pianist, she's totally unique, I have never seen anyone play the piano like she does.
I'm quite flabbergasted. Not only does Sangah figure out the chords and melody, but her first "full" attempt at the song includes attention to the details of the dynamics!
I think, that’s where singing melody out helps tremendously, by the time she figure out every thing the dynamic probably was internalized through the singing.
That jazz e version is really great, thanks for it! ☺
It's beautiful!
If your head is spining watching this as a non-musician ...don't feel ashamed ...you are NOT alone. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
even as a musician my mouth is open !! she truly is an elite pianist
@@zylophonia ... Thank you for honoring this wonderful person. 👍
I love how she just throws her head back and laughs at the insanity of this song. I was expecting her to get to the end of listening to it and go "this is impossible", because in reality it IS impossible, but then she played it beautifully! I also loved the "Jazz E" version that she played on the spot.
The jazz rendition was sooooo freaking awesome!
Completely agree!
I love seeing professional and classically trained pianists attempt this piece. I learned this from the synthesia tutorial alone, so it is nice to watch. It's interesting to see her own rendition of the song. Thanks for sharing! 🎹❤️🇪
Oml I can't believe I see you here lol
@@Pianist_CH It's a small world 🤣 I saw this comment 2 weeks ago, but I forgot to respond. Wishing you all the best :)
@@RyanBentz thanks man you too
Sangah's musicianship is on another level. Her improvisation with this Rush E piece makes me recall her doing the same with Chopsticks. It was wicked brilliant!
It's really cool to see how she uses dynamics to mirror the overall structure of the original. Where the original as layers of notes, she plays the notes louder. Two different ways to accomplish the same end goal: adding intensity.
Jazz E is so beautiful! Shows what a true musician she is, she doesn't just imitate the original, she makes it her own ❤
"Can we still be friends?!? 🤤" That was hilarious, Lisa. Yeah.....she is that good. Thank you folks for bringing Sangah's genius to a large, knowledgeable audience at Pianote. Maybe that million subs is not too far away.🤣👍❤❤❤
What a captivating eight minutes of pure musical entertainment! Plus, you really picked a winner (Sangah Noona) to drive home a quick yet FULL lesson on learning a song. I especially loved the way Sangah improv'ed at the end! She is one Jazzy girl! 😊 Thank both of you so much for putting this video together!
Sangah Noona is the most amazingly masterful musician I have ever seen and heard anywhere. The things she does musically completely astound me. This video is another outstanding example of her incredible Musical talents. Simply wonderful Pianote and Sangah. Thank you.
Sangah has a great personality. She did an amazing job for this challenge. Wish she was my teacher.
I love you Sangah. Here I am in my living room cheering and clapping like it’s some sport and you just scored the winning goal!!! It’s such a joy listening to your amazing piano playing!!! Bye, I’m off to the piano to continue with your Moonriver lesson!!!
Love how you can still hear here own melody and style show through, she took the most impossible song ever and made it totally approachable and more beautiful somehow. Took it from meme to a true classical tune!
Talent + humility is a winning combination. That jazz version was 🔥
Sang is truly a Master Musician in every way.
Completely agree!
That was amazing! 🔥🔥🔥 and thanks for the lesson - don’t give up! 🧡
Jazz E is BRILLIANT!!! Thank you so much Sangah for creating that. That was so easy on the ears and smooth as butter. Thank you!
im honestly impressed in the time it took to memorize and be able to play all of that
Very refreshing video format! Thanks to Pianote studio and Sangah Noona! Invaluable tips as always.. Listen, really listen, analyse, internalise, personalise.
Impressive!!! How could she do it so fast!??
It probably looks fast on youtube but she probably had to take some time. The video is edited. We didn't see all the process.
@@rodthom86
@@rodthom86I refuse to acknowledge this
This piece isnt that hard, especially if you are a professional.(Im not taking about the impossible 8hands part later on)
Because she is Asian
I really love the cheeky little extra beat she put in between there at the start of it making it a bit waltzy :p Also that jazz version just became my new favorite rendition of Rush E.
How can anyone dislike this? I can't see anyone playing like that
Probably because it was mediocre, no offense
@@aleckleckyWas it? I'd like to see you try. So come on, give us an awe inspiring performance.
how can u see dislikes

We love Sangah Noona. Please bring her back to Canada. ❤
I just found Sangah's KZhead station and started listening to her like LAST WEEK! She is AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I grew up learning with Suzuki method as well as learning lots of traditional/folk tunes and i can for sure say, she doesn't sound like a "suzuki kid" to me. I also think that her "jazzified" Rush E is awesome and she sounds *so good* when she stops trying to reproduce the original and starts to fool around with the music instead
Her joy and enthusiasm are so infectious! I love it!!!
We need a series of song deconstructing. To know how to analyze a song for a cover
This is a great idea!
The technique is remarkable in a good pianist as well as in a good painter poet etc, but to make a beautiful jazz arrangement out of it.. Well, Sangah did it again! Excellent work!Sangah ,Force boom here!
As a pianist, I can confirm, Rush E is entry level for all ages.
The JAZZZZZZZZ this woman can play is just... wow
Omg! As a beginner on the piano I love learning from Lisa but this was insane! Loved it! Especially had fun watching Kevin panic 😆 lol. Thanks for making my day!
Thanks for watching!
yess! i was watching lisa's tutorials when i was figuring out how to do my two hands ☺️ she's an incredible teacher and she seems like a fun person to vibe with!
I need a full version of this interpetation, this was insane!
This video is amazing. Sangah's reactions are so sincere and joyful. It's wonderful. She has a lot of simple buy effective lessons for everyone, and the little editing touches like playing a super fast version while showing the time lapse was great. I never knew I needed a Jazz version of Rush E. Thank you for giving her the time to practice and experiment!
She is so amazing and so inspiring… Jazz E is definitely something I would want to listen on repeat! Thank you for such a great vid ❤ what a great collab
All Synthesia arrangements look like that to me. This pianist is beyond amazing! Thanks!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Amazing - both versions of it! Not really a fan of the piano's tone, but she played it so well!
Amazing, she's so good! Really nice to see someone who doesn't just play the music but seems to really feel it. I love that!
Loved watching this! Her hand movements are as mesmerizing as her brilliant mind.
Sangah is such a master but humble in the face of things even she can learn from. I like the advice to listen and not to rush into playing, I'm going back to my fur elise practice though...rush E is a bit mental haha.
Wow, she’s great!! So fun! I hope you all will do more of these!
Thank you for watching!
What an amazing person she is, a pure talent with a very long years of practice
Smiled at her first rendition, then had tear with the end version.
Loved the jazzier,less frenetic version, which was a pleasant surprise! 😊
She completely surprised us! It's a beautiful arrangement.
Okay I was already elated by her performance, but watching her "jazz it up" at the end had me grinning ear to ear! She's such a gem~
When someone who looks 29 says they've been playing for 30 years 😂
That jazzy version was absolutely mesmerizing, I'd love a longer version to put on my spotify playlist lol
Excellently done. Even an impossible song is no problem for expert musician Sangah!
Sangah definitely had a blast with this one. Also, I’d love a pdf or at least a midi of her variation of the piece. Was super cool.
love watching awesome musicians how they practice, it gives me idea how to practice effectively
This was really cool! Love her jazzed up interpretation! My gosh, this makes me really want to see Hiromi Uehara go wild with this piece someday XD
Gorgeous rendition! Love the creativity.
bro that cover was amazing. the jazz version was so inspiring to hear.
No shame here in admitting I felt emotional watching this. For no other reason than appreciation of seeing a genius and master of his craft do what he loves the most. It is absolutely a pleasure to watch.
when i think of classical musicians, her energy is what i imagine. shes so genuine omg i love how she was just having fun wowow
You nailed it Sangah! Never a doubt.
The "Jazz E" version made me cry. Absolutely gorgeous
I stood up and applauded at the end, even though it wasn't live!! I loved at 5:13 how she started clustering groups of the same RH chord to speed up the song, and then she how she added a bit of syncopation/rocking feeling at 5:21 to the chords to add a greater sense of speed. I would pay for her arrangement...plus, the skills to play consecutive repeated chords/notes with the ease/relaxation that she does. Just wooooow!
This is so good, how can anybody dislike this ?
Love her! Insanely talented and skilled!
So I'm not a piano player myself, however, I think I have a fairly unique relationship with it: My mom teaches piano, from preschool to highschool aged kids. So I'm surrounded by people who love playing the piano, especially with my mom. So I sent her this! First off, her reaction was that everyone wants to learn this song; aka, a lot of her students. But this is a great way to show this level of musical expertise to people who are good at the basics, but haven't gotten into composing or truly listening. It's also a great lesson in how wrong notes don't break a piece. Slight imperfections are rarely noticed by the audience, and even so, they add a personal touch. And when you get to crazy songs like this, the notes will just fall apart... But it works, as long as you have the base of the song still there. It makes the piece feel complete. Thank you for showing us the thought behind each step, it makes me feel connected to my mom, in a time that we're not very close :>
That was incredible wow heck yeah girl! What a pro and awesome personality too! ❤much love to you your hard work and dedication to your craft
Well, I'll never be able to relate to her level of brilliance, but what I enjoyed the most was her humility and kindness. A humble genius.
Really enjoyed this video. Sangah is Awesome!!! 😎
Sangah is a true pianist, a true musician, a true artist 👌 This is a win for pianote 👍😀👏👏👏
This was so entertaining! Very interesting to see which aspects of the melody she focused on as compared to my own listens. Worth liking!
The jazz variation is something i didn't know i needed
Pianote is always awesome for expanding excellent musicians into the family. Thank you. ❤🎉❤🎹🎹💯💯🤘👏👏👏
Thank you Lisa!
WOW, this sounds completely INSANE!!! ❤❤❤❤😂😂😂😂👏👏👏👏💯💯💯💯💯🔥🔥🔥🔥 You are absulutely AMAZING, Sangah!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ Love this!!! 💯🔥❤️👏
This is soooo beautiful to listen to!!! I love the jazzy version 🥰🥰🥰
What an incredible performance 🎉
Sangha was awesome! Her own version gave me goosebumps all over. Such an amazing rendition in an extremely short amount of time. Great job! 我覺得有種江老師的 vibe 😂 她們可能可以當好朋友 XD
That was really cool and i also loved her jazz variation she did
I love her genuine reaction :D
She is so talented!! 😍
Jesus Christ!!!! "jazz-e" just blow my mind, it was just amazing, I'm speechless, I'm done, I immediately fall in love with it 👏👏👏
There always something very special watching a pro like real pro playing something new and figuring out on the spot that just tickles a spot in my brain that I dont get to itch to often!! and this video hit that spot good, AMAZING Work and playing you are just god like and play in a very new but classic feel which added to the song!
I fell in love with the jazz version !! amazing !
How can you dislike this? I don’t see anyone else actually playing it.
Probably because it was mediocre no offense
@@valvevac-systemchecker3773 nice reference
Sangah is really a star! I also find the Pianote videos super interesting. I wish my English was better so I could make the most of them! Anyway congratulations to all!
Thank you for watching our videos!
love her, such a magnetic personality.
Could you and Sangah pls make an entire video of the jazzy version? This entire performance was simply amazing! Subscribed.
At least give her the music sheet.
