when you're nervous about performing something, you usually tend to speed up. At my last showcase I played my song at cut time (x2 speed) so maybe he was nervous
Guyz can u just watch and respect him? He is also human, not a perfect creature Just accept it and applause for him Standing on the hall is very fearfull If u ever have performed it U will know the feelings Please guyz
Lol who cares if he messed that small bit? It just shows he's human and not some god everyone thinks he is. MIND YOU I FKING LOVE ANIMENZ, just that we shouldn't criticize him over something so minor when he puts all his effort into playing all his pieces, and that's why HE'S BLOODY AWESOME
HOLY FUCK! He modified some of the part especially the solo guitar part which is unexpected and ending it with a slow pace. JUST FANTASTIC/EXCELLENT/UNBELIEVABLE/GHOUL STREAK.
Frankly the most surprising fact wouldnt be him playing it without any mistakes but him covering them up so well and making them miniscule honestly i can appreciate that more than him playing it perfectly it shows way more about a pianists mental fortitude and his abilities distinguishes robots from humans imo.Anyways much love to Animenz truly an inspiration
yes that is the most noticeable. The rest were too minor to be noticeable if listening for the first time. I only noticed them because I watched so many times it to work out fingerings etc. That mistake could have been negated if he used both hands to do those arpeggios instead of just the right hand.
I still get goosebumps because it's LIVE. The feeling here is way more different than in a video. In a video Animenz can take as many videos and upload ones he's satisfied with, but when it's live, he only has one shot and he executed perfectly with minimal mistakes which makes it even more unique
I love how this transcription evolved. Before it sounds like this and now in 2017 it sound really good. I don't know how much effort he put on that piano cover.
To protect the little genius on stage. In his YT videos he tried hours to get a good play done. Here it was his first try at the end of a concert. And it was still amazing.
This version is actually a little different from the original one he updated, also I noticed he wasn't using his Steinway piano, instead he used the Yamaha one
@@variamente6855 yes and also when you play a piece thats super fast and requires lots of energy/hand strength, you literally cant stop playing it, you can't stop yourself from continuing
2:43 That mistake made it better and it sounds much better. (Also it was a mistake because I searched his both old and new covers and he hit the wrong note but somehow sound better than original lol)
The fact that he considered playing a slower version because it was so hard goes to show the insane strength, endurance, and technical precision required for this piece.
Well, when you actually have to play hours of piano music, you don't want to play the same thing over again. Animenz is a professional piano player and you won't always hear the same exact transcription not because they're tired but because they want to change up the piece to make it more entertaining to both the viewers and to him.
At first I thought I was giving up on piano. . . . . . . Then I noticed even Animenz makes mistakes in his song. . . . . . . . . I’ll try harder for the better.
no its not. there are countless places where he fat-fingered the keys. the most noticeable one is 2:26 where the arpeggios downwards are mushed up. also in the left hand mega jumping at the end some notes are wrong and some mushed. by mushed or fat-fingered i mean one finger accidentally playing 2 notes because it is caught in between the keys
He didn't perform his original piece... he played something different and still made some mistakes... That's how difficult his compositions are.. he said it himself.. it took him a couple shots to record the perfect unravel we know today.... He's truly a genius
no, it didn't, if you read his description, you'll see he recorded it in first shot though it was surprising for him too and only took like a week for composing this masterpiece
