Star Wars - The Imperial March (Piano Version) 

Only a true Dark Lord of the Sith can wield such power! From this moment forth, you shall be named..... Darth Pietschmann.

Did you ever hear the tragedy of darth Pietschmann the wise? I thought not. It's not a story the Rousseau would tell you. It's a piano legend. Pietschmann was a dark master of piano, so powerful and so wise he could use the piano to influence notes to play so many songs… He had such knowledge from the music side that he could even play the songs he liked with ten fingers without dying. _The Dark side of the piano is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be unnatural._ He became so powerful that the only thing he was afraid of was losing his piano, which eventually, of course, he did. Unfortunately, he played too much piano and his neighbours destroyed his piano in his sleep. Ironic. He could have played songs forever, but not his piano.

Luke: Vader Is On That Ship.... Han: How Do You Know? Luke: I Can Hear The Theme From Here!

My brain: I wanna learn this.. My fingers: Don't you dare..

Darth: I know what you're getting for Christmas Luke: how? Darth: I felt your presents

Rebels: Thank god we're safe from the empire! The music: 0:03 Rebels: Oh god dammit!

The dark side of the force is strong with you.

Could you please do the "Force Theme" as well ?

This never gets old Just like the younglings at the temple

The sith code, Peace is a lie There is only passion Through passion I gain strength Through strength I gain power Through power I gain victory Through victory The chains are broken The force shall free me.

The movies have been up and down but John Williams has never disappointed.

long live the galactic empire

Piano: “Play me, and your journey towards the Dark Side will be completel

1:23 gives me chills everytime

It is so good to see two people playing the piano so good all at once.

You are such a BEAST.

Is it possible to learn this power? Not from a jedi

Loved it...i hope you haven't forgotten across the stars i really need a Patrik version of across the stars :)

Such precision and accuracy, I congratulate you on such a marvellous performance of both skill and a whole new sense of impressiveness. Due to David Prowse's passing this makes me respect this song a lot more, and remember: "You don’t know the power of the Dark Side."

just imagine having your coffin carried through the church with this playing, it’s what I’m having

Me: I have a piece I wanna play Teacher: What is it called Me: *Guess*

We need "Across the stars"! You could do some amazing stuff with it for sure

I’m proud of you, my padawan, now you can use the true power of the piano *breath noises*

You need a lot of Hans to Solo this

Never heard the Imperial March being played so smoothly before, until now

Across the Stars please!!! Its the most beautiful star wars theme!

I don't mean to insult other piano-playing channels But Patrik's playing is just OUT OF THIS WORLD

It’s super satisfying when he holds the long notes and the spray effect unfolds out of the note. Well done Patrick!

Слушаю на протяжении 3 месяцев, очень завораживает (я фанат SW)

I would like to say a few choice words ....... Roses are red There's a thing as a fader R.I.P. David Prowse The LEGENDARY Darth Vader

After this masterpiece has ended I was on my feet clapping. Great technique. Loved the performance. MORE STAR WARS PLEASE.

The Music Is Strong in this one!

This doesn’t sound excellent... IT SOUNDS PERFECT

I've recently noticed that you could replace the wild hunt (witcher 3) music with this and vice versa, and it'd actually fit pretty well

I can successfully say I can ALMOST play the first 45 seconds of this... such a masterpiece this is!

When you hear this music, the Empire will always be with you.

Fun fact: The Imperial march is just an epic remix of a funeral march.

Luke: "He's headed towards that moon." Han: "If we get in range, we'll be able to take him out before he gets there." Obi-Wan: "That's no moon...it's a space station." Han: "It's to small to be a space station." Luke: "I have a bad feeling about this." Obi-Wan: "Turn this ship around!" Han: "I can't he's pulling us in." Chewie: *roar*

Those red lines even look like the computer decor from an Imperial ship or Death Star. John Williams knew how to make money man!

Darth Vader always manages to make a dramatic entrance. Pietschmann has done a wonderful job portraying that electrifying entrance in this piece.

This is the best piano version I’ve heard - the emotion and tone is exactly as it is in the movies!! Keep up the great work 💕

Darth vader: Luke im your father Luke: ok boomer

My Theme, never get's old. Sounds amazing on the Piano.

The force is strong with this one

one of the best arrangements ive heard

Lit🔥🔥 Darth Vader would be proud 😌🤘🏼

Patrik's Code: Failing at piano is a lie There is only success. Through success, I gain skill. Through skill I gain power, Through power, I gain victory. Through victory, The chains are broken. And I can play astounding pieces without breaking all ten of my fingers.

Vader: **breathing noises intensifies**

The type of movement your hands make when you play the piano looks like Rousseau. Demonstrates calmness that can be well controlled.

John Williams is the modern mozart. Well played. Bravo.

Hitting all the notes ! You clearly don't have stormstrooper aim Patrick!

Has anyone heard the story, of the greatest Sith of All time, Emperor Piestchmann? Well if you haven't, then read it: A few decades ago, in a galaxy far far away, there lived a chancellor called Patrik Piestchmann. He wasn't very rich, nor did he know the ways of the Sith Piano composers, or Jedi. But one day, a Sith lord called Hans Zimmer taught him the ways of the Jedi Piano composers, and the Sith. Hans Zimmer warned him that the power of the Dark Sith is addicting, but Patrik did not listen. And one day, he composed a piece of piano so powerful and terrible, it stripped Hans Zimmer of his power. He was then known ans Emperor Piestchmann. He ruled over the galaxy for a thousand years, and anyone who stood in his path was deafened and stripped of his power by The Emperor's music. But one day, he played his piano so hard that he trapped himself in an endless cycle of stripping himself of power and getting it back, and this way he grew even more powerful when he played. But one day, a Jedi Pianoist called Luke Piestchmann stood up to the Emperor and destroyed his Piano, which made the Emperor's power disappear into nothingness. Then the Emperor decided that without his Piano, he was nothing, and so he surrendered. But, the next day, The Emperor Piestchmann saw a vision. He saw the piece that he had been searching for his entire life. And one night he snuck out, and found his old Piano. He used some old dark pianoist magic to repair it, and after he did, he played the piece. It was beautiful, yet terrible. In the end, we find out that he is still ruling over the Galaxy, but some say that the piece that he played last changed him, as he is now never seen, nor heard from. Only his apprentice, Darth Zimmer, his former teacher, is the one who rules second to the Emperor, and no one can change this....................

There's just something so magnificent about John William's musical scores for movies, you've earned a subscriber from me, excellently performed!

My brother is addicted to star wars and I like it too. This song is the darkest song I have heard!!!!

This is actually sick. Wasnt expecting it to sound this good.

just watched a the phantom menace, come back to my two favourite star wars themes. thanks

You nailed the iconic theme starting @1:06 (until 1:23). That third voice was just so smooth. Bravo!

I listened to this like 10000 times and know it by heart now lol ♥️ 💜 ❤️

Now this is my favorite song.

The Force is strong in Darth Pietschmann. A Powerful Sith he will become!

Bravo! Bravissimo! Really loved the part starting from 0:50 - never imagined it could be played on a piano... Amazing, absolutely amazing!

The stormtroopers miss everything, man. The target when they’re shooting. An awesome battle. Some missed the like button. Amateurs.

Nice ! I like the way played it, can't wait to see your next video 😃

I’m speechless

RIP David Prowse, Darth Vader shall never be the same

"I'll never join you! You killed my father!" "No, Luke, _I_ am your father..." "No... No...! It's not true...! That's _impossible!!"_ "Search your feelings; you will know it to be true..." "NOOOO...!!!" One of the best SW momensmts ever!!

rebels: doing rebel stuff rebels: hears the empire march rebels: ah sh*t here we go again

the most badass theme ever for a villan

In my opinion of a person who doesn't play piano you are amazing at doing it, and the editing with the notes coming and disappearing in dust and the tiles lighting up, it's just amazing

I nearly missed this in my notifs like a freakin' Storm Trooper. 1000000/10!!! Lovely piece, thanks for sharing!

Darth Vader walks off the transport storm trooper: hey, do you her something?

He plays so fast and how does his hand move to different places so quick

Brings back memories

I know I’m a bit late but it would be great if you could do the mandalorian theme if it’s possible

1:26 made me feel childishly evil. But then I was back to happy and focused on my school work. 😂

Awesome playing! For future videos could you please consider doing some of your older pieces like "No other way", or if you're going to keep on doing star wars songs, I'd love to hear your interpretation of "Across the Stars" and "The Force Suite".

All hail darth Patrik Pietschmann

Suggestion for the next video : Force theme Forest gump theme Once upon time in the west My heart will go on Man of steal fly theme La valse d'amélie poulain ... ...

~ patrick pietchmann a star wars story ~ september 2019 : what is star wars ? november 2019 : I love star wars now!

Rebels:Hears Imperial March Darth Vader *Breathing intensifies* Rebels:All shit here we go again

Over the past 11 months I have been coming and watching this video over and over again and it never gets old. And there is a comment from me 11 months ago

I love all of the Star Wars soundtracks, but i love your own compositions more. Hopefully you do A New Beginning next your own composition!!!

You will impress no matter what will you play :S

Its over Patrik! I have the high ground

Music to my ears.

Thats it, time to practice piano every day. I also like how its a real piano, no synthetic crapp like other piano videos who artificially make it good.

Ich muss es gar nicht hören. Ich weiß einfach, dass es gut ist. Star Wars von Patrik

Which key mode is this?

Rebels: Vader is dead, the first death star is destroyed *Imperial March* Rebels: Shoot

I think I love you Patrik Pietschmann❤️❤️❤️

He is multitasking

when that one really mean teacher walks in the classroom

Watch in 0,75x speed and It will sound a lot more like the actual film version, It will almost match its speed

Ok... so this is certainly worthy of a save in the “Watch Later” playlist! 😎

This guy stopped all those blaster bolts with his fingers! The force is with him!!

You usually add some flare to your movie themes, but this was almost perfectly replicated. I respect you for that.

When Darth Vader hears a storm trooper call him a droid.

I just heard Darth Vader's theme just 2 hours ago. And I was watching Star wars 1st movie. And now you uploaded this! What a treat! ♥ And I want to hear X men First Class theme from you

Luke: ... you killed him. Darth Vader: No Luke, I am your Father. Luke: Nooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!

I literally cannot stop watching this
