aLIEz - Aldnoah.Zero ED2 [Piano]

[@Hereson]

This guy just arranges the *entire* orchestra symphony.. For One Piano. No details missed. LOVE IT.

[@ICeyCeR3Al]

+Hereson Animenz practiced very aggressively focusing on his own ambitions regardless of what others thought and has had 16+ years of top of the class classical training. Its no wonder he is so talented. He put so much effort into what he does despite already essentially being a prodigy+having perfect pitch at a young age. He didn't just take his talent for granted like many people do. Like you know, showing it off and not making any advancements.

[@Marwington]

+Hereson I love how you can see progress in his videos over years.

[@masterjecker9767]

You mean apart from the almost perfect singing from Mizuki^^ But overall you are totally right. You coudnt do that with a guitar or some other instruments. I often call the Piano (and similar Intruments like organ) King of Instruments for some reason, they are so versatile.

[@PeelingQCumbers]

[@crewcutter2030]

those 3 hand technique is freaking amazing. Youre a god.

[@Houdini111]

I love the paragraph where you say "Similar to my previous piano arrangements of Hiroyuki Sawanos compositions ..., you can go ALL out with the volume this time. Especially the section starting at 2:53 should be played in the most convincing forte fortissimo ever, the whole piano should be shaking at this point, and every listener should trembling with awe."

[@ssailormoon]

i am watching this 6 years later and almost commented the same thing but i'll like yours instead!

[@felixlll1407]

1 year ago I watched one of your videos which was (This Game). It inspired me to learn the piano. Everytime I lose interest in piano I would just watch your videos and imagine that I could play like you some day. And now, I got to grade 5 in about a year and I don't think I could make it this far without you. I'd like to thank you for making such amazing videos.

This comment is so wholesome

[@kingdom3221]

I started to learn this piece about 1.5 years ago and after 1 month of on and off practice I managed to play this piece ok-ish on 70% speed... and somehow no matter how hard I tried it always sounded messy. I realized that my skill was not high enough for this piece... a year later I came back to this piece and there was still no real progress... Only after I learned it by heart and many hours more I can now play it almost perfectly. What I learned from this piece is invaluable for my piano playing... After finishing this piece my skill made a huge jump up... Other "difficult" pieces suddenly became easy to play. This piece is currently my favourite piece of all time and the feeling you get when you play this with your balcony open is uncomparable. I wonder if my neighbours actually like this piece, since I already played it for almost 2 years^^

This dude is just legend himself...I studied piano for 12 years (I'm 16) and I tried to play this song and it was very tiring and this whole piece just requires SO MUCH practice. This guy is a legend omg. (PS the left hand looks like a spider XD)

I’m going to learn this song. 100%. I am going to sit down at the piano during spring break and learn this song. Even if it’s just the first notes, I am going to learn this song. If I don’t learn it during spring break, I am going to sit down after spring break and dedicate my free time to learning this. Because this is one fine ass song and I need to have at least one epic song to say that I know on the piano.

[@supermasterfighter]

Shining Lotus If it has left handed arpeggios then it's pretty hard

[@ICeyCeR3Al]

Normally you should have a good idea of what type of difficulty you would have learning any piece. If this is one of your first "difficult" pieces (difficult is a very relative term), then it will most certainly be difficult. Now as for "how" difficult, that depends on your approach and how much your practice. I think it will take roughly 60 to 70 hours of solid practice and memorization for a relatively new pianist (

[@XDSome1XD]

Someone with less than 2 years practice can't learn this. If you want to play this well and fluent you will need a lot of practice even if you are really good (talented and 10+ years practice). Even Animenz probaly practices a lot for a piece like this. I mean most people with less than 2 years practice struggle with playing the hard part of für elise fluently. They definitly can't play somethingb like this, especially not in 60 to 70 hours.

[@FunkMasterFlex3]

Of all the versions of this out there this one hits the hardest. So much passion on every bit.

[@SahilNaik30]

This is absolutely godly. No piano cover except this one comes so close to the actual song. The off beat bass creates the drums that essentially powers the entire piece. And the slamming of the harmony in the right hand starting from 2:36 must be absolutely painful oh man. I know there’s skill in that to make it hurt less but Jesus that’s amazing. It’s hard to really get the full complexity of his pieces until u Iook at a synthesia and other attempts at his version, but once you see those... his hands are not from this world. This is simply a perfect transcription.

I have to say, when I glanced over the sheets last night, this arrangement looked rather ordinary (perhaps I've gotten too used to seeing complex 6-7+ page sheets from you). But as soon as I started listening, the rich bass line and catchy beat sucked me in immediately. Even though it seems rather simple on paper, the actual performance sounds much more complex, with a liberal use of contrasting motifs between hands and a resonating drum rhythm in the left hand. I thoroughly enjoyed this departure from your usual arrangement style. oh and POKEMON HYPE WOOHOOO #GottaCatchEmAll

[@iReXx500]

Since this song doesn't have a lot of variety, I thought you were going to add your own little mix into it.. - similar to your "My Dearest" arrangement. But! For the most part at least, you stuck to the original. Both methods of playing have their uniqueness. I'm starting to like you sticking 85%+ to the original.. It keeps the arrangements more.. free. It gives players (of proper skill level) to take your.. template and change it as they wish. Your template being the arrangement advanced, but very close to the original. When you already remix the song yourself, it makes it more difficult for others to make their own spin-off. Awesome playing as always. I was very excited for this, because I knew you would be able to take a song without much to it, and turn it into a song with tons of articulation in the more subtle parts. Your playing includes A LOT of notes, but the way they are used makes the song more refined. Everything clicks together as you play, which is another big reason as to why I see you as an inspiration. It's brilliant, to say the least. I hope to see more sooner than later! *Realllyyyyyyy excited for the Pokemon OP. Nerded out when you mentioned it. I can't wait to see your take on it.*

[@tomchien4212]

Skillful and beautiful Animenz. Love it. Nice work. Very nice.

[@AnimePianoAngel]

Awesome cover! Sawano is indeed the best anime OST composer! Aliez, even though played as ed and and OST, is no an exception! Originally I was very busy working on assignments. But then I log onto KZbin and saw this! I instantly dropped my study and listened to this 3times! This really motivates me in my study and everything else I do! ======== I really like the repeating motifs. They are not muddy but they resonates clearly!The instrumental section in the middle sounds awesome! Recently, you style is more closely aligned with the original! I like it but at the same time, maybe you could add some original ideas like you did in the older arrangements, as in Euterpe, nagi no askua and few others that have special ending + classical runs.

I'm so sorry.. I couldn't stop my laughter from almost choking me.

[@ishipmikayuusohardicoulddi940]

LMAO

[@ららいわわわ]

やば……！！！！めっちゃすごい！！！！！アニメの壮大な感じが出ててやばい((語彙力

[@lloollyypoopp]

Oh, hello there, video. For once i get to be early. Lets think of a joke. My piano playing skills

[@AirIUnderwater]

You mean *my* musical and artistic skills.

[@lagos4312]

You mean OURS

[@classymuffin4589]

You know, I never thought I could get goosebumps from a piano...

[@LifeRaito]

left hand is impossible! I can't belive it.

[@cheungjackjackt02006]

ikr. Learning this right now, and the off-beat on the left hand is just unplayable for me (i have poor tempo management). Especially when Animenz decides to switch things up with a counterpoint like 1:48.

[@YeemasterAmateurPiano]

@@cheungjackjackt02006 Practice hands separately.... See if that helps.

[@sungyunpark5781]

You are one of the most fantastic piano player i ever seen

[@DeathRacerSH97]

Well now i will start the anime because of this cover...

[@ligazetom]

I love how easy it is for you to play, this is music I can listen to all day.

[@ecbrd8478]

His left hand is going fucking nuts holy shit!

[@supermasterfighter]

He's playing left handed arpeggios, which is pretty difficult but you get used to it...

[@randomchickrobin]

I've done those, and it hurts your wrist. I can't play for more than 20 minutes doing those 😂

[@killerslowpoke]

You should see his other covers, like Guren no Yumiya and My Dearest from guilty crown. Insane handywork there (literally)

[@Ezero8]

Jaw-dropping...

[@MisterPandoras]

+1 Random_Chick but Ecbrd, I think this is "easier" than you can think, I mean it's harder for me to do fast arpeggios (like in "This Game" I currently work on) than this work on the left hand But this piece it's still a beast xD

[@Claudio-lu8yh]

Man this is just Epic! Awesome!! You are One-Man-Orchestra!!

[@Laeq777]

Man i just started playing piano mainly because of you man love the way u play the piano. My mother has cancer so im kinda sad most of the time, but listining and playing piano helps me alot. The funny thing is i listin to HipHop, but stil i love the piano so fucking much. I wanna play the piano just like you, but that will never happen :(. Pls keep making this vids i love them so much! maybe u could play something from Shigatsu Wa Kimi No Osu, like 'orange' or something. I know I know it sound cliche but im sure u could make something nice out of it :). gl with practising ;) (this message i had already placed on your tokyo ghoul unravel vid, but i wanted to make sure u read it, so u could see my supportive words ^^)

[@qreen3372]

Sorry to read that, after 3 years i hope your mother get well and beat cancer!

[@xcoder5692]

wow! great performance. i have been searching for this kind of piano performance. keep it up!

[@Soul-zv3eh]

[@YatoriMinase]

[@ryuji4076]

I'm a PhD student. And even I am imagining playing this at my school.

[@Soul-zv3eh]
