Such a surreal experience for me, I was fortunate enough to be the grand finale at my high school talent show.
The day I printed it off and started it was less than 2 months before the day of the talent show so I know there’s mistakes 😂
Here’s the sheet music if you want to learn it!
www.musicnotes.com/sheetmusic...
To play a wrong note is insignificant; to play without passion is inexcusable. - Ludwig van beethoven
Omg
and this guy plays with incredible absurd passion, that’s what i loved about it, and now i realise that’s what was missing when i played piano
Well said mate☺
well he fucking did both the entire way through
you're a d__che. this young man played excellently.
As someone who's been playing the piano for over 12 years I can say that the mistakes he made were 100% because of stress. This dude knows how to play...!
Been playing guitar for 10+ and can confirm it's all head space, if people are around it's difficult to flow. I practice to imagine people sitting around me, shocking to realize the stress induced and weak fingers/mistakes etc.
@@jurihilgert8157 that's a great method
How would you suggest learning how to play piano or any instrument for that matter?
@@nolanweis6 I taught myself guitar and also taught a friend, after 3 months of practice he was as good as someone with >1 year of self taught training. My own blueprint is starting at the very start with easy low bar chords (Am, D, G etc). After you get some easy ones down try a harder one, for guitar F with a finger bar. Then try adding a melody on top of that, just search easy biginner guitar riffs. You'll be off playing in no time. Second blueprint (for my friend) is easier, if you have a friend who plays an instrument tell him to throw you in the deep end, skip the "learning easy chords only" and learn chords+melody simultaneously. If you manage you just skipped weeks/months of learning, if not tone the difficulty down a bit and go at it again.

idk - high school is toxic. A lot of the time, it's the creative, passionate and talented kids who are mocked
The kid has talent. But I’m more moved by the support this kid has. The world needs more love like this.
what I was thinking
💯
I was thinking, man high schoolers are so cringe
@@srcwormperhaps, but the support shown was genuine. Honest support transcends any “cRiNgE” factor their methods may have had.
@@srcworm seriously (I'm a senior)
The most difficult part about this piece of music is being in front of an audience without being used to it at that age. He performed great for that amount of stress he had to endure! Well done!
I'm sorry but the guy that yelled,"YOU'RE SO HOT!" I cried laughing But fr this kid's got some talent.
Same tho😭
It def took a hell lotta work for him to make it
That’s my brother who yelled lol

I love that when he lost his flow or made a mistake or two, he didn't panic and just continued like nothing happened. That takes alot of courage to do. Especially infront of a high school audience.
it also shows the amount of work and practice he has put into the piano
@@danigomez9573 he may not be a master, and he might never be a master. Yet the feat he performed shows he worked hard for that.
Exactly, bro I would’ve stopped mid passage like “wait…that shit ain’t right”
yeah i counted 4 mistakes but he kept going and didnt panic ...
@@seangotts6470 there were a lot more than 4, and the timing was off throughout the piece but im not flaming him, he did really well and his skill level and practice is still something to be proud of :)
Imagine being such a genius that you create a score that captures the melancholy and the urgency in the same piece and that's exactly what the movie needed. Hans Zimmer.
*Hans' Zimmlings, apparently
Incredible sound score!!
some girls just got mad for him "JOSEPH MARRY ME!!"
I love how the wrong notes don't even sound bad, he had good stage confidence to make up for it. Really liked it, sounded like he practiced a lot to perform it too. Nice one man.
No, be honest. The wrong notes did sound bad especially when you know how the song actually sounds.
@@HonestMan112 No, be honest. I'm sure half of the people didn't even notice and it really didn't sound bad. nobody in that room or watching this video is gonna memorize the actual song to point out every note he messed up.
@@honeybeeplayzofficial3741 3:15 I think most people noticed that
@@HonestMan112 no, be honest. one wrong note for every 100 right notes doesn’t matter
@@3DRobot69 Honestly, I didn't.
We can’t thank composers like Hans Zimmer enough for creating such modern masterpieces. He makes classic music cool again for young generations.
It was never uncool. The generations since it's popularity have just lost their hand at the art and so creativity has thinned.
@@jeffgorski4579 its not that the generation lost their hand at art. Its just that art has grown and diversified. We now have more options to choose from whether it’s classical, rap, metal or any other genre.
I swear bro I never even really noticed scores in movies and when I went back it’s like god damn Hans zimmer is the undisputed goat *spider man 3 theme*
I swear it’s composers like Hans Zimmer, Ludwig Gōransson, Michael Giacchino and Steve Jablonsky and their scores for films that have just made me adore music that bit more. Interstellar, transformers, Oppenheimer, up. All these films have amazing pieces of music in them
@@jeffgorski4579um nooooo it just is in fact uncool for 99% of the younger generations? 😂
I could not imagine how this must have felt. This will be one of the best memories he will ever have. The entire audience loved him from the start. This kid will go far in life.
the second the 2:36 part started- full body chills. This whole piece was amazing
I love the comments on this video, everyone noticed his mistakes and arent making fun of him, but encouraging him and congratulating him for his bravery. We need more people like this in the world that accept mistakes and focus on the good rather than the bad. Amazing performance and amazing audience!
I don't sing in the shower because I'm embarrassed, and I'm 40 years old. It takes bravery to do this.
Homie blew through his mistakes like they were nothing, recovering so smoothly. In a strange sense it was affirming to see where he made mistakes in the song because I know how to play this song as well and I've make the same mistakes in it as he does, although he continues with a bit more grace then I
Like who would make fun of him here, when it would look so childish with 7 year old kid come post comment saying haha he pressed the wrong note in between his playing of piano.
@@mikedavis7065 lmao
@@mikedavis7065 sing away homie
It's so hard to play under stress. But if you have the chance to play for public, you should take it. Experience is so important to deal with stress and this guy took that opportunity. Keep playing the piano, you're doing great!

Say ong you actually teared up
how would that be bad in any way bozo
@@nafhannahfan760who cares if he teared up or not its art and effects everyone differently
@kusama_ alright boss 👌
not wrong. not at all... interstellar hits the feels... and the chutzpah this kid has to do this in front of a crowd is INTENSE!
As a non-musician but rabid consumer, for me the key to this piece is capturing the emotion in the execution of the notes. Kid nailed it.
as a pianist for over 30 years now, I still play wrong notes to this date. and this version of the song is really difficult and well done. you did a really good job buddy, keep it up!
thanks for giving him actual compliments from a true pianist! the piano is such a lovely instrument! interstellar is such an awesome movie~ the brilliance of hans zimmer, kip thorne + christopher nolan together is absolutely beautiful art! well chosen + played piece for this young man!
any tips for a beginner like me
@@naawanonni3380 practice, practice, practice. Repetition. And never give up!
I’ve been playing for 11 years now and I miss notes all the time😂😂 but I just love how he kept going strong like nothing even happened😄
I believe he did a great job but he keeps changing the tempo and that is what ruining expirience for me. If he can't play harder sections in the tempo he can play easier sections then just play it slower from the beggining. This constant adjusting of the tempo is just super annoying.
It takes alot of courage and practice to get to the point of not just stopping after you make a mistake. Very few mistakes, very well played.
I agree! His relentlessness is admirable, he didn't allow these small mistakes to spoil his performance and that just shows how good of a pianist he's going to become in the future
@@unery. I agree that it is an easier piece, but he still played it rather well, no need to bring a person down ok every video
Yes I agree with you, it has to have courage on the stage and sometimes we make mistakes, but is ,because we are worried
this song is hard lol
@@unery. i wouldn't say that
imagine having a full sized concert grand at your school
to make mistakes is to be human. what matters is how we handle the aftermath. every error you made, you stood by and accepted it, and got right back on the horse and kept going. amazing talent.
and too the average listener, there werent any mistakes haha. normal non music people cant hear messups unless its blatant or a very popular song.
I love the way everyone felt the same way about 2:40 its just such a beautiful moment. This guy became the main character of his whole school
That moment really is a universal feeling whether you’ve heard the song or not, but esp for first timers it gives the chills.
That's exactly when tears started rolling down my eyes.
Can hear a pin drop ❤
one of the most popular combination of just two notes
@@csbrooks I cried for like 10 minutes when I heard it for the first time
As a pianist myself with over 10 years XP, I am impressed with the passion he plays. ESPECIALLY recovering it after a mistake. When I have bad performances and I mess up, sometimes I go into autopilot to focus on hitting the right notes and sacrifice musicality. The only times I don't care I made a mistake and just play expressively is when I am playing my favorite songs alone. But this guy can get into that headspace in a crowded stage. Absolutely awesome.
Yes, mistaking and not loosing it means he is probably educated by a professional
Bro only has 10 xp, that won’t get you anything on the skill tree 😔
@@A_MF_Bird 10 is good

You have no idea how emotional interstellars music makes me. Coming from a man who very rarely shows emotion.
It’s an amazing score, possibly Zimmer’s best.
same
@@MindinVioletThe fact it only won best visual effects is a crime
I would do anything to hear someone play this song in live. it's like it manages to tell everyone's story without changing a note. a tear is falling from my eye now
I wish the other kids at my school had been this supportive of one another. The young man is brave and did a great job, but his peers should be proud of the way they carry themselves.
The girl screaming at 5:40 made me literally laugh out loud omg. She screamed like her soul was leaving her body. Hanz Zimmer does that to me, too, lady. I feel you.
you can't imagine the joy I felt when I saw 999 likes
Well said, agree.
bro people just say random gay stuff in my school
In my school, people laughed at a guy that literally sang like a professional for an advertisement for a school event.
Every musician makes mistakes when playing live, but how you recover from those mistakes in the moment is what makes you great. This guy did just that. Awesome stuff
❤
Well put!
ik! amazing
The way everyone was cheering him up before he even started playing just amazes me and shows how our generation is supposed to be. Perfectly matching the beautiful aura of the song!
3:18 is the moment of true skill and talent. Nailed it pal ! Christopher Nolan 🔥🔥
huh
Hand Zimmer?
@@josephsandesh399 Without Nolan, this Zimmer music would not exist
The piano will forever be a timeless instrument. Well played. Also I like how the crowd goes from teasing (like highschoolers do) to complete silence once he starts to play. Music really does transcend all boundaries.
yeah they know the song is already hard. imagine playing it on stage as a highschooler in front of your friends. the stress must be huge but he did very well

@I consume entertainment inRather unhealthy amounts The first time I've played piano on a stage (for a crowd of 100-200) I simply forgot what to do, I get really embarassed when I remember that moment. I was supposed to play rains of castamere, but shit happens.
It is not very complex. I started learning piano 6 months ago. I can’t play this song but I know it is not that difficult
@@josebohorquez2633Just be quiet. If you are playing at Home in your bedroom its somehing completly different from playing in Front of 500 people. I once performed in Vienna wayyy more stressful believe me

I can't imagine the amount of courage it must've taken for you to play in front of such a huge audience. The sheer commitment and passion you displayed even when you made mistakes is what makes this so touching.
I love that kids these days recognize Interstellar the movie and it’s music as incredible. Don’t get me started on the father/daughter reunion scene!
His imperfections add to the emotion of the song. The passion and grit of a human going through life. Beautifully done Caleb!
I thought so too

Then how did you know they were mistakes??????????
@@shadowkille8r99 We've all probably listened to this song played by so many people that we know what it's meant to be. But this young man's "mistakes" never took me out of the feeling of the song. It felt like just a different flavor of it. And that's what's so cool. He didn't let the imperfections hinder his flow.
@@fletchthebirb ok you can think that but that isn’t what OP said…
@@shadowkille8r99 Bro just stfu and quit hating. You probably don’t even play piano, go do something useful.
I wish I could play such a masterpiece like him. Even though there had been some mistakes, I could still feel his passion and perseverance.
The fact that he didn't pass out from the amount of cameras getting so close to his face and all of the loud yelling is impressive. Good job man! As someone who has played for 13 years, I can say he played very well. :)
Not only is this such a difficult piece to play, but to play this in front of your high school takes tremendous courage. You did amazing. Well done young man 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
It's actually not that hard of a piece. I've been playing piano for a couple of years and could sight read almost half of it. Playing in front of others, now that is hard. I myself, get so nervous my hands start shaking and sweating 😭
I played for my middle/high school. highschool came first middle school came 2nd I had to perform two times... and I was facing everybody. everyone could see my face...
Especially high schools now where the average IQ is down like 20 points. Smooth brain animals
I don't know if it's just me, but your mistakes somehow make the piece feel more human and beautiful. They actually add to your performance
I dont agree. While the idea of mistakes adding a "human touch" might seem endearing, it undermines the very essence of musical performance: precision, accuracy, and respect for the original composition. EMotional resonance should not be conflated with something like flawed execution. An accomplished musician can (and should) deliver emotion without deviating from the pieces given rhythm and melody. While its possible to appreciate imperfections philosophically, in performance arts, the player owes it to the audience and the piece to strive for perfection. So please lets not excuse mistakes as an expression of humanity.
@@ascii5616 🤓
@@ascii5616 its not that deep bro calm down
@@yousof8546 Its unfortunate that you seem to have missed the point entirely. This discussion isnt about being "deep". Its about recognizing the significance of precision and respect for the original composition in musical performance. If you genuinely believe that an accomplished musician can effectively convey emotion without deviating from the intended rhythm and melody, then perhaps you should take the time to understand the nuances of musical performance before dismissing the importance of precision. Your flippant comment suggests a lack of appreciation for the art form and an inability to engage in a meaningful discussion. Next time, take some more time to think before you write another comment. Perhaps with careful consideration, youll be able to contribute something more productive to the discussion.
@@ascii5616 While mistakes can be made and be excused, I certainly do not agree with these mistakes adding human touch, and they certainly do NOT make the piece more beautiful! With that said, I agree with the points you have made entirely.
YOOOOO WE GOT A WHOLE 6 MINUTES OF LISTENING AT THIS MASTERPIECE BY THIS HYPER TALENTED BOY! KEEP GOING WITH THE PIANO AND NEVER GIVE UP! YOU ARE THE BEST!!!
What a memory and honor for this talented high school boy.
ive been playing piano for two years now. Guitar for 7. This is still so impressive to me, im glad this type of music is still alive in younger generations and not just appealing to older audiences. Hans Zimmer really made a masterpiece with this one.
100%! I'm so glad I get to see him live later this year!!! Dream coming true!

@@kijoosong2478 ok? I don't give a fuck
The courage and brave to play this hard theme in front of the audience is Amazing, APPLAUSE FOR YOU DUDE❤❤❤
You played with so much heart and soul-- what a beautiful rendition of a beautiful piece. Bravo!
As a pianist, the passion is all there in this performance. For everyone that's not a musician here, it takes more than 2 months to perfect a piece. For something learned in 2 months, this is excellent work. Give it a year of practice and the muscle memory will make it impossible to miss a note. Every yearly recital I had, I would have to play up to 9 songs by pure memory in front of a judge with every expression and note in perfect place. It would take half the year to learn all the pieces, then the other half to perfect them for recitals and that was with daily practice. To this day, even with 25 yrs experience, when I play in front of any audience I still get nervous and miss notes here and there, but most people never notice because they aren't musicians and their ears aren't trained to pick up on it.
Even i'm not a pianist. I notice some mistake
@@tanah97 of course there are mistakes, this is a very hard piece to play especially within 2 months
Much respect to you for living that kind of life. It takes time and patience to get anything perfect and such dedication is very seldom come by. You must truly love being a pianist. So Said the Great Andre Rieu "It is a song about the search for happiness, happiness that we all need so much in our lives."
I love how eloquently you put that. Very few times do we listen to anything live that the performer doesn’t mess up in some way or another, be it singing, playing and instrument or performing an act. I think in the times we live in now we’re so used to seeing a perfectly polished performance made in a studio with all the mistakes edited out that we forget we are human and mistakes are made and the performance is still beautiful no matter what, it’s the beauty in the chaos.
@@tanah97 anyone can find a mistake...now go play it yourself and tell me how you did!
Holy shit as a former pianist my heart is beating out of my chest because of his courage to even want to play for an audience that insanely huge. Amazing job!
Truly incredible.
@borikid3786 Just as there are no "former marines," there are no "former pianists."
One of the best pieces of music ever written, performed with so much passion. So cool to see this. Don't ever stop playing Caleb.
he played cornfield chase so beautifully, i got tears of happiness in my eyes. and it's good he can read sheet music too!
He is going far and high places. This version brought me to tears because of how pure it was. How he handled his mistakes added another level of depth and beauty to this already powerful song.
Love your comment 🙏
Yes! How you handle mistakes is the sign of a great performer. I sang opera and did competitions in high school/college, but I was never good at recovering from mistakes. I just could never get back on. I think it’s one of the hardest things to learn about performing!
5 seconds in and I am bawling.❤
ain’t no way you cried
This version is actually from a youtuber called Patrik Pietschmann, i recognized it as soon as i heard the first note.
Theres a reason why my biggest pet peeve is people using the word "talent" when they should be using the word "skill." Massive respect to you.
Pretty much the same thing
@@igglepiggle1215 nope talent is “natural” skill you have to work hard to get
Right? Saying "Yeah, you we're born for this..." and you're like "Well, I started playing at age 5 so it's been a lot of work." and still hear "yeah yeah sure, but I mean, it must be nice being so talented and unique..." Like, come on 🤣
“Talent is developed naturally, Skill is developed from beating on your craft every day”
@@bush7643 No, purely natural is "gift", even though they all may be scrambled at time. Talent is something people have deep afinity with, but need a bit of training to develop. A skill, on the other hand, is anything useful one is proeficient at, learned or not.
So freaking awesome...well done kid. To play this in front of your entire school take courage and pride...keep kicking goals young man!
Lots of admiration... A beautiful piece of music, never mind the mistakes, that young man has tonnes of talent, and tremendous gonads to do that in front of his peers. Hats off to you lad...hats off.

I could feel the overwhelming heaviness as he pressed each note on the piano keys, followed by emptiness, doubt, and chaos in his head, maybe music was the clear container. most emotions and moods that I can hear. music like life. Anyway, maybe his high school friends made him a little stressed 🥲

At my graduation, I played this exact piece as well and I can confidently say that he absolutely nailed it. It took me months of practice to learn this piece and also a lot of encouragement from my friends to play it in front of a crowd. My performance wasnt perfect but I do not regret doing it 👍

I’m trying to learn it myself, but I’m struggling to find the sheet music for this exact arrangement

Music just makes you feel something so beautiful ! and this young man did a great job reminding us to take a step and listen.
I love every note of this. Cold chills, and I’m a tough 50’s year old woman. Well done, sir. Well done. ❤❤❤
The mess ups, pauses, and replays of single notes make this feel more natural. Yeah, "perfect" covers exist, but this has the natural, human feel to it, and would've been amazing to experience in person. Great job!
He did a great job but also I love that no one actually knows the name of the song. They just say interstellar but the song is called Cornfield Chase and it is composed by Hans Zimmer. The entire soundtrack of this movie is incredible. Good job!
Hans Zimmer and Christopher Nolan together is always a masterpiece of a movie
I knew it was composed by the legend but didn't know the songs name, thank you for that
This specific arrangement is actually titled Interstellar - Main Theme. While you are technically correct to say it's Cornfield Chase in part due to the fact it does contain that theme, but this arrangement isn't Cornfield Chase by Hans Zimmer. It's an adaptation of Hans Zimmer's Cornfield Chase. Most of these arrangements expand on the original soundtrack. I believe Cornfield Chase is also orchestral, whereas the "Main Title" is a piano adaptation. I've literally practiced this very piece hundreds of times 😂 it's quite a technical song for beginners and this young man did very well especially under such immense pressure. Technicalities aside, Interstellar is a beautiful film and accompanied with an incredibly beautiful and fitting soundtrack by Hans Zimmer. Truly a masterpiece of both cinema and music, in my opinion!
@@PoofyKittens Yes, I noticed that it wasn’t just Cornfield Chase. Thank you for the clarification on the exact piece :) I just never hear people refer to the song by its actual name, when it’s specifically played on its own. Cornfield Chase is one of my favorite songs by Hans Zimmer and I think it deserves more appreciation :)
@@PoofyKittensthe hardest part is the repetition of the song. You can lose track easily if you don’t have laser focus.
This is absolutely magical, human, and amazing. Keep it up, bro! All the best x
Been playing this song for 4 years and I just have to say. Bravo. You gave me chills and brought a tear to my eye. Keep up the beautiful work. I would like to leave finish this with one of my favorite quotes. “ Music, once admitted to the soul, becomes a sort of spirit, and never dies.” ― Edward Bulwer Lytton.
i love how much of a realistic performance this is, youtube is filled with professionals with over 20+ years of practice playing full length songs completely memorized up to tempo with no mistakes, this video shows how beautiful pieces can be, even with mistakes, you are incredibly talented brother
It takes lots of courage to do what he did respect
sup gigalad, I am dvorak chad
As someone who's been playing this exact score for two years now, I can say that I STILL mess up some of the transitions - it is a difficult piece, and to play it that confidently in front of a crowd is superb. Very well done, I can tell you've spent a lot of time practicing. The sections where you go play at 4:18 until the end of the score are the trickiest to play, and to keep your cool and keep going is amazing - especially having only worked on this for two months! Keep up the great work, and make sure to keep putting your heart into your music.
Brilliant! Just brilliant. He was IN the music there, swishing and twirling with the notes. A beautiful recital well done.
The imperfectness of this performance is EXACTLY what makes this performance perfect. We have all witnessed a HUMAN being human and can easily relate to this moment of triumph over adversity. Well done!!
Exactly, I know nothing about music but I can easily hear how he transitions from the mistake to the next rift or part of the song almost flawless and sounds amazing, hard to think this is a high school performance
The little “wow” when the chorus started was just lovely
you are incredible, this is so inspiring, cant stop watching, hope to see more
I love how he played a piece from not only the, like, best movie ever but also one of the best composed movies ever and put such flow and emotion into it, you can really tell that he loves this piece. So amazing.
I love how the crowd just gasps when it gets to the main part of the theme. Amazing job, I would fail so bad if I had to do that, I love his confidence.
His unmatched perspicacity coupled with his sheer indefatigability makes him a feared Pianist in any realm of human endeavor.

Your talent is stunning! I can feel your own emotions in the song that make it different from others.

He is awesome - well done! That was really amazing! This reminds me of a talent show I was in during my high school years. A boy that wasn't super popular in the school came on stage to play a piano piece. He sat down, began to play, and the piano wasn't plugged in (our school didn't have a proper piano). People started laughing and it was so awkward. A teacher rushed on stage and fixed the issue, the boy had to kind of get his bearings again, people in the audience weren't expecting much but at least they were quiet. Then he just LAUNCHED into "Flight of the Bumblebee" and it was so incredible. You could hear everyone gasping and kind of shouting out, and then the chattering began, and the whole time he just absolutely nailed this piece. He got a standing ovation from the whole school when it was done. It was so satisfying! I had it on a VHS tape (yes I'm VHS tape old) but sadly no longer have that footage. It was one of the best things I've ever seen.
Right off the bat I love it how they encourage him but then have the respect to be silent to listen to the piece. My daughter was in a music school when she was 5-7 and performed in concerts where several grown adults were always loudly talking through her whole piece that we had painstakingly practised. It was brutal. Fair play to these kids, and to his beautiful piece. I love this video
i love how halfway through at 2:45 they're like "its interstellar"
Hands down to you young man . Very well done !! I could not have done that like you did . Keep playing NEVER GIVE UP YOUR GIFT 🙏
This is beautifully played!! I got chills listening to this. Congratulations on getting to the grand finale! You've got some serious talent!
At 5:02 when he switched perfectly, made me feel so much good for him🤧
Interstellar has a score that is so existential and beautiful. I love your interpretation!
Hans zimmer everybody
I absolutely love the people in the crowed showing their support lmao it's so funny you can tell their friends😂
Pure talent. You did very very well, man. Good job.
the most impressive thing is he almost completely managed to go ahead over the errors, almost without panicking. I've been there in middle school and as i made the first error i got all my body frozen from panic. well done
Ive had stage fright and it's hard to get over😮😮😊.
Not gonna lie - this brought a tear. The date was December 17th, 1982, at Dryden High School, in Ontario Canada - I performed solo piano in public for the very first time. It was a day that changed my life. Because DHS served students from several communities in the Dryden area, the audience was probably 4 times larger as what the audience shown here appears to be. Christmas holidays were about to begin, I accompanied a pretty girl to the "Snowball Dance" that night in the same auditorium, and had my first real kiss. Memories like this made this one of the most memorable, and certainly the most important, day of my life. I then set out to make music my life, and that's what my life became, and at 58 years of age now, still is. People don't remember the mistakes you make. What's remembered are the smiles and feelings that you can provide those people because of what you do, and much more importantly - what you provide yourself. It's the passion of music. I wish this young lad every success and hope he remembers THIS day, the same way I remember my experience, like it was yesterday, even though it was over 40 years ago.
Damn...

Such a wholesome story man.
beautiful man.
This video is so addictive and i don’t know why, specifically 2:40. He plays with a passion completely stunning
You've got some good friends. The hype prior to the performance was something special. That was also a great performance. Didn't let the mistakes phase you, and played them just as confidently as the notes you played correctly. There's a lesson here, but I'm sure many others have already made the point. Keep going, and don't ever stop! It's all uphill the older you get, but it looks like you're in good company!
Faze, but I agree 100%!!!
@Elaine May That's a bit rude! He's just playing and doing his best. He doesn't have to be "elite" in order to enjoy playing for his hs!
@Elaine May most of the mistakes were probably out of fear, he's performing in front of a ton of people. I think he sounds amazing.
@@TheAmazingHoho576 phase* but I agree as well!
@Elaine May He's clearly not going to a music school.
When I was 17 I knew like 2 easy songs on piano that didnt require any demanding skill and I thought that I could never be able to play this song correctly learning by myself. Now I am 20 and I can play this song perfectly. Keep pushing guys. If I did it you can too. And I didnt kill myself trying to learn piano I just had fun with it
Thank you bro 🥲🥲, I’ve been practicing for two months now form no experience and. An only play bohemian rhapsody and another small parts of songs like runaway- Kanye west and etc
This is like one of my dream songs
@@kevinreyes7419 keep it up, the hardest part in learning any instrument is the motivation. If you can play with real passion you'll upgrade your playing by itself. As an autodidact myself, I'm playing piano for nearly 3 years, I'm doing thing that I could never dreamed of, and even when playing still wondering how I'm doing it ! My next song is this exact song, interstellar. Hope you have a great day, if by any chance you want to keep in touch and send me vids of u playing, or just talk about piano, I'd loved to. (Yeah, talking with people that like the same passion as me is something ^^)
How did u learn, did u watch videos or go to lessons? I really wanna learn lol
@@zainabm2007 At fiesta I used to learn from these MIDI videos (and for some pieces I keep using them) but know I download several sheets. For this song I learned It through the MIDI file video
Sounded nearly flawless to me. Talented young man. Great song and even better movie. This young man has a bright future ahead.
Watching this gave me chills! What a performance🥶
He did beautifully. I’m sure most of the audience wouldn’t be able to recognise the song, let alone the mistakes. He played so wonderfully
Everyone knows this song. It’s overplayed actually.

@@Volcanic_Activity you must’ve been locked in a box (or you’re really young). The movie is 8 yrs old and has been a focal point in the sci-fi space genre, just saying…
@@kingMT514 sorry, my friend commented that as a joke (she's hoh 😂)
he may missed some notes but he nailed hundreds. awesome. the applause is well deserved. keep on, dude!
I love th fact that you kept going! You're fantastic man! Keep going!📈🚀
This honestly made me cry, every cover i hear of this song, people put so much of their heart into it, even the slightest mistake is not even a mistake, just a minor bump in the road of playing this whole song, the only word that is close enough to describe interstellar is Beautiful.
This was the best performance I’ve seen so far. The occasional mis hits made it more real. Sounds like the song of the flow of life.
i agreee
