I played 100 songs on piano. Probably the 100 better known pieces for classical piano and keyboard. Do you know them all? Learn in this Video! Be a Member! bit.ly/2Nlupas
Where I have heard this songs: 2% dancing ballet for 7 years 1% music lessons at elementary school 1% studying piano for a year and a half 96% watching Tom and Jerry
Fantastic ! Bach - math,lesson, logic Chopin - feeling, sublimity, longing Mozart - fun, game, commerce etc. But each one is a masterpiece of its era and an opportunity to travel back in time.
@hamsterpotato Same here. And there's only so many times you want to cop to asking your parents "What's that song that goes kinda 'Dah-dah-da-da-da-daaah', y'know?".
@hamsterpotato I guess mine is closer to writing me off as a cultural loss. I think he's just thankful I still bother to go see his performances occasionally. :D To be fair, though, I find a lot of the history and trivia interesting, but that doesn't help a lot to decode which half-remembered thing you heard in kindergarten belongs to which powdered wig.
I love how Scott Joplin sits alongside Mozart, Beethoven, Chopin and Bach in this list. Joplin is of a different era and continent but just as great as the others.
He was from around the same era as Debussy and Satie, but as you say, the only composer in the video from outside Europe my apologies, there are a couple of Brazilian composers I wasn't aware of, also very roughly from that late nineteenth century period.
@@ticharribetikymo257And his style of music is rather different from the others; at the time, ragtime was considered a rather "low" form of music, and not "real" classical music. Joplin worked his entire life to change that.
As someone without an ounce of musical talent, (seriously…I can barely just play the radio) I say thank you. I still love music! And I recognize many of these from Tom & Jerry.
❤I giggled, laughed, and got teary-eyed. This is so beautiful and moving. It is a language without words that speaks directly to my heart. Maybe I must spend the rest of my life learning to play. Yes. I must. At times, I had to remind myself to breathe. Thank you. My 92 years young mum was in awe also. May God continue to bless you. xxx❤
Fun fact - the Hungarian Rhapsody (89 @ 1:49) was used in Who Framed Roger Rabbit as the famous piano duel between Donald and Daffy, and they sped it up to what the filmmakers called ‘inhuman cartoon tempo’
i guarantee you this guy knows the majority of these songs off by heart hes probably a million times more talented that your guitar friend so do not compare the two@@Psychodermia
Thank you! My daughter hummed the opening line to "Toccata and Fugue", so I responded with the next line (an octave lower) and shocked her.... but could not for the life of me remember the name! I very much appreciate this refresher.
It still blows my mind that these pieces are so recognisable hundreds of years later! I find myself listening to classical to unwind and just to temporarily escape this crazy modern world we now live in!
I had actually heard many of them, though the most were completely unfamiliar. I kind of agree in the "still don't know their names" part, because the names were shown so briefly. It would help if the list was included in the description. Looking at the names on a list for more than a few seconds would help remembering them. It also would help remembering the names later, because connecting piece of music and its name would be easier than remembering the full names without help.
I had a friend in elementary school that was actually quite good at piano and could play The Entertainer from memory by the time we were in 5th grade. She volunteered to play it because we were talking about Joplin and reading in music class one day. From then on, we’d ask her to play it all the time cuz it’s just so catchy and joyful. I’m sure she hated it by the time we reached Jr High but she was kind enough to oblige us nearly every time!
I remember when The Entertainer was popular on the radio. About the same time as Star Wars. I think those were the songs most pianist would play in school back in the 70's. The theme from the Exorcist was another one, or Chariots of Fire. I used to play the theme from BattleStar Galactica, the 1970's series version, as well as Buck Rogers in the 25th Century. Dang it now I have them all going in my brain as earworms. 🪱📣🎶👂
Потрясающе...я сама когда-то играла на фортепьяно.. пианист играет все наизусть! это невероятно круто)) особенное спасибо за Шопена, Чайковского и Бетховена😍 мои самые любимые
7 stages of difficulty: 1.) Extremely easy 2.) Easy 3.) Medium 4.) Hard 5.) Extremely Hard 6.) God 7.) *When Vinheteiro had to look at the piano* It's a damn joke lmao everyone chill
I knew about 70% of the ones i'd actual heard before, but I also used to listen to a lot of classical. there were maybe a dozen i'd never heard before though.
@@qumefox Yeah that's some BS. "About 70% I'd heard before, maybe a dozen I haven't heard" Idk if your just trying to flex on a random video on RU-vid or not but get the math right at least. -NECM Class of 2019
Without this video, I would have never known that the Beethoven's Concerto n°5 is basically the track #4 of the Karekano OST... thank you, Lord Vinheteiro
Everyone is talking about hissoul-penetrating gaze, but I am really impressed he knows so many classical pieces and can play them flawlessly without watching sheets.
before i clicked this video i though to myself "well, i know flight of the bumblebee and he is definitivly going to play that" and then it was the first thing he played
My family is Polish and Chopin (alongside Copernicus) is extremely well know just by virtue of how much pride the society has for him. As such, with someone with a passing interest in classical music, I did know most of the names of the Chopin ones. The ones I didn't, I would have easily been able to find since he has a certain style (there's a lot happening in his compositions with a high tempo, is the best way I can put it into words)
I hadn't heard all of these before, but I knew the ones I had. What I need is someone to do a video like this for 100 songs from the last 10 years or so, especially songs that definitely got radio/supermarket speaker play but didn't get the kind of national media attention that led to everyone knowing their names.
People have a hard enough time making original song titles these days, imagine fighting a guy over royalties just because he used the same instrument and key, or it was the same speed, etc😹
I’m borderline crying I have been trying to the name of song “the entertainer” for the past 11 years. Finally having the name makes and hearing it again just……..makes me feel like a kid again Hearing the icecream truck play this and me running to grab a spongebob icecream just 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Whenever he looks at the camera he has the expression of someone who just delivered the most humiliating insult ever and is daring you to do something about it.
Also, I like how you look directly into my soul as you make me feel hopelessly inadequate about my life and accomplishments up to this point. Great work!
@@daan9211 I'm writing you this comment to congratulate you on your unique comment and my gracious if it is not beautifully constructed. I have never seen a comment like this anywhere on youtube and can not imagine how much hard it must be to type such a unique comment. That amazing use of emoticon just put tears in my eyes. God bless you also win a reward like this.
POV: It’s really late at night this came up in your suggested, you don’t play the piano but are watching the whole thing and scrolling through the comments as you do and you’re not even mad about it
I was about to be bothered by the Mozart comment, but then I remembered how juvenile he was portrayed in Amadeus and kept that, and your comment in mind while listening. Damn me, but you're incredibly spot on with that.
@@katelinhartman1779 My chem prof, my calc prof, my husband with his students... lol, I know that look too well! Though in my defense, I'm sometimes in the smug group of students who did NOT fail.
I 've known the melodies but composers name are forgotten by the time. Only, good known names are in my mind. But, you are also great! without notes to play such a lot of classical melodies, it's amazing! Thank you for our ears pleasure.
Okay so I find Für Elise hilarious because: Beethoven originally wrote the song for a girl he fell in love with. But she couldn't play the piano for shit, so he made a song so simple even she could play it. But then he learned she was engaged, so he made the rest of the song so difficult she could never hope to play it, just like he could never hope to have her heart.
