Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen, performed by 13 year-old, volunteer pianist at The Charlotte-Douglas International's Airport in Charlotte, NC. Arrangement by Costantino Carrara • Bohemian Rhapsody - Qu...
Wow..this is an incredibly difficult song to memorize and play..especially in an airport with people walking past you and background noise..for a 13 year old this kid did an amazing job. Much respect from a fellow pianist🙌 And everyone please calm down about the tempo and try to appreciate this kid's talent and skill.
Honestly it's not that hard and I appreciate our just trying to be nice but I don't see the point in him doing this, surely it's just him showing off ?? Oh yeah and before someone says it's because I can't play it or coz I'm salty or something pathetic like that I learnt this when I was 13 in 2 weeks and it was easy so shut up
Schmoodle Master the guy who said he had to catch a plane is a perfect reason to rush. The pilot doesnt hold back the plane just because you havent finished a Queen song lol
Theres an Asian boy bout his age who played the same advanced verison of bohemian rhapsody with the correct timing But hes asian course he has the correct timing
He's a kid.Let's hear him in 20years after after life experience. Still a talented youngster and I look forward to hearing more from him. Well done kiddo!
Brilliantly done!! He's playing fast where the guitars are playing. And Freddie improvised during concerts all the time. For how old he is, and in such a public place, he's done a fantastic job of the song.
MLG SLUG oops wrong emoji :| what I was trying to say is that bohemian rhapsody is loved by so many people even random people at the mall :) the emoji I meant to put was 🙂♥️
@@bluepoisonxanimations2485 well you don’t earn money when having likes in your comments, what’s the matter if it’s stolen? Or your just saying, if you are, sorry :)
Or maybe it's just the off tempo, the unnecessary improverisations, him putting no soul into the music, and him playing forte the entire song. The only impressive thing here is the fact that he memorized the entire song. So what, he's 13, I've heard way better and younger people play better. He's just an average 13 year old piano player playing an above average song that's not at his playing level.
You are aware that queen themselves, the epic Freddie was known for his improvisation!! This young lad made his own. After all Freddie saod do watch like with the music, just never forget me... And this boy is 13! Thank you young man for a beautiful performance x
a lot of people are criticizing that his timing was off but as someone who also plays the piano i think that this was so beautiful. i also love his improvisations. he’s so talented!
This kid is rich, u seen the jar full of money on top of the piano!? Edit: why did this even get so many likes like bruh, also congrats to that kid he’s cool 😎 and that piano omg wish I had a piano that in tuneeee my piano is like 3 notes out and sounds like a cat drowning in cheese
The Kids Mom: WOW look at this Bohemian Rhapsody song it’s looks really hard to play on piano A Random Bystander: I know right The Kid: Hold my apple juice 😎
Beautiful!!, everyone should first take in mind that this kid IS NOT PLAYING THE SONG AS MERCURY DID. This kid is just improvising through and after enough time of his piano classes that he, for sure, have taken. He did pretty well in spite of the people he did'nt know, «the place», where lots of people is rushing on time. «He played with his taste». Very good for that!! Blessings and thanks for sharing. Good luck!!
He is fuckin out of the tempo, all the time, it sounds just very bad, i was 13 too when i plaid this song for thousand people, and it sounded great, so...
Look, this kid is amazing. Playing piano is not an easy task especially when your playing a 6 min song. Great job and I hope he goes places😉❤️ Edit: and he memorized it (he didn’t look at the sheet music once) P.S.- thx for the likes, Ive never gotten any
I'm 11. I started to play the piano some months ago, now I can play just A LITTLE PART of Bohemian Rhapsody. I hope that when I'll be 13 i will be able to play it a little longer or, maybe, (not saying that I WILL) play the entire song. This guy right here has so much talent, and I can only imagine how good he will be in the future. Good job. God please make this kid go faaaaar in his piano talent.
WOW, If I could play like that !!! Folks, you are looking at the NEXT superstar. Don't let anything stop you. You Can do GREAT things. I have 100% faith in you. All my best, >
@@bluepoisonxanimations2485 also doesn't mean they all have cash to give. I don't always carry cash on me, especially after spending 150 on a plane ticket
I've been studying this now. There is no doubt that this piece is hard and hard to master. This kid got game even though he missed a lot of notes. He is still young and there is many more for him to get better.
Everyone is mad because this kid can’t perfectly play Bohemian Rhapsody. ;-; Edits: Wow thank you for 100 likes!! This is the most I’ve ever gotten. For the four who commented: thank you for your comments. :) Oofer gang 200 likes. 351 400 likes
ItsYaBoiChipsAhoy nobody is mad at him. If you post a video online, you will get critiques🤷🏻♀️ that’s just how it is and that’s what everyone is doing. he is being praised for the most part
The kid is simply brilliant! Everyone who's mad probably doesn't know/realize he's actually playing a version by Constantino Carrara - and he does an extremely good job covering that version, which is a masterpiece by itself.
The ppl who disliked this video. Freddie is Mad at you Edit:HOW CAN PPL JUST WALK PAST A 13 Y.O BOY PLAYING QUEEN's SONG LIKE AJHWIWHWWIFEIRYWOWTRI IM ANGRY Oh and i love how Freddie's Songs get passed by generations
I can’t believe all the dislikes ... shame on you .. this boy is 13 years old .. how many of those dislikes can play this? He did great... God bless him he will be better and better as he gets older.. keep practicing and one day I bet he will be a concert pianist.. 👍 he’s a talented young boy!
The Pilot on 0:25 is probably from England. Look at how his facial expression change when he heard this kid play Piano. He's like: My gosh this kid is so awesome! Maybe I should give him a free ride to the UK so he can have a concert at Wembley Stadium 😂
Wow I’m very impressed. As a pianist, I understand that tempo fluctuates with the artist, the emotion put forth and the rendition. You don’t always have to “play by the rules guys” This kid is amazing. Anyone who has critique about tempo obviously doesn’t understand artistry; and I would truly love to see their own video that is so much better??? I certainly couldn’t do any better. Don’t hate when you couldn’t even come close to this beautiful performance, if you could even play Mary had a little lamb to begin with! Lol. You keep rocking it dude! Much love!
You play like an angel!! Never, ever stop playing and learning. Freddie Mercury would be so proud of you! I bet he's smiling down on you right now. You have been blessed with an amazing talent - a God given talent so take advantage of it and know there are many out here who support you and wish you nothing but the best. :-)
That was fabulous. Loved your piano skills. Proved that the music of Queen can be transformed into brilliant piano pieces like Bohemian Rhapsody proved.
If my 13-year-old son could play half as well as this young lad, I would be singing it from the rooftops! I love his improvisational skills and I think Sir Freddie (I've knighted him posthumously) would love it - he was never one to stick by the rules! I love the changes in tempo - it shows feeling and emotion to me. Anyway, who needs perfection in life? This is perfectly imperfect and it has brought a huge smile to my face, so thank you for posting :-) x x x
This is so good, I'm learning it myself. All those people who are telling him that it's too fast or something can't even do the same so don't listen to them it's very beautiful and amazing!
Que bello!!! En un mundo agitado, donde es muy poca la gente que se detiene para llegar al cielo con esta musica con este talento y con el amor por la música!!! Es un niño precioso. Llegarás muy lejos mi ángel. Gracias por poner en tu talento la música del gran Freddy mercury y la gran banda Queen. 😍😎🎼🎵🎶🎹
So amazing! Blown away by this youngster's talent! His octaves are incredible! Like I said on his "Entertainer" video, I hope he continues his piano studies. I teach piano and I would LOVE to have a student that is as dedicated as this young man!
Instead of being one of the few not putting this kid down, I think this kid has bonkers talent. Keep working hard kid, I don't blame you for showing off a bit of your gift, share it with the world! You're awesome!
What a wonderfully talented young man. I can speak with some authority as a pianist myself and a music teacher. You have a great ear and mind for music. You should be very proud of yourself. A rare gift. Keep getting better and we will all know your name one day!
For anyone looking for the sheets to this arrangement, Costantina Cararra composed it, so you can see the original composer play it if you go to his channel. The link for the sheet music is in the description to his video he made. But this kid did an amazing job. He killed it! Great job, dude!
Phenomenal. Very talented young man. Can u image how good he will be with years more of practice? Only 13 and playing that advanced already! Freaking Brilliant!
Very nice job young man, keep going. This will be a lifetime of pleasure, and here you are on RU-vid for your future generations of your children, grandchildren and so forth to watch. Go forth and conquer your dreams and never ever let anyone stop you. Peace
“oH hIs TeMpO iSnT rIgHt!!” Maybe that’s because he’s 13? And anyway, the tempo is decided by the pianist, not the composer. The composer gives an idea of what it can sound like with a certain tempo, it’s up to the pianist if they wanna change it to better accommodate their level of playing. And bohemian rhapsody isn’t the easiest song to master, as I can play it myself let me just say, it’s hard to stick to the original tempo
Beth Lester I usually agree with this kinda thing, but if you’re boutta pick a tempo to some extent you gotta obey it, I mean honestly this is utterly incredibly, but the at time sharp stops and pauses aren’t really a choice rather just a small mistake, honestly it’s hard to nail constant timing especially for a song like this, but the timing ain’t bang on, and that’s just how it be sometimes.
There not really being rude there just sharing an opinion and in all honesty he is a very good pianist but he does need to improve on this specific peice.
There’s a very good adage, “criticise in private, praise in public”. If some of the negative comments have come from genuine musicians who think they can play better, then email the lad and offer your comments. This was highly entertaining, and an impressive performance given the location. I hope we hear more from him
