Concert Pianist Attempts To Play Abba - Amazing Cover Version Occurs

[@alandickson4799]

Brendan I'm a 55 Yr old Lanarkshire man, working class, bog standard bloke yet your videos make me well up with happy tears....a thousand thanks. 😊

[@Gazolba]

If you appreciate this music you are not 'bog standard'. Bog standard are all the people in the background of the videos who just march by without even hearing the music.

[@tomatobrush3283]

lol

[@swisserty]

You are a God Alan. Bog lanark bloke shire without a damn trilscuit in the cramma! Standard bongshired with crimpet marched handed spoke regard, no?

[@sixtenfredriksson1224]

U’ll never walk alone 😿

[@jlyon228]

yep!

[@kallewirsch2263]

This is without a doubt the most beautiful version of Mama Mia I ever heared in my live.

[@StarNanny]

One of ABBA’s beauties….you did it justice. Beautiful.

[@kenwilkins1594]

I cant recall how many times I've watched this beautiful rendition.

[@markmitchell2794]

Up in northern California , extremely broken hearted .just lost our little town of Greenville & your playing and love for music and people brightened my evening enough to be able to relax & enjoy the beauty of music . One of GOD'S greatest creations . Thank you Brendan !

[@theauldgamer7757]

An absolutely beautiful rendition by Brendan. Mama Mia played that way in a romantic movie would win some top awards easily. Tears me up every time.

[@artoart7770]

01:45 The young man takes the phone in his hand. 02:03 The smile shows that he has identified the mysterious pianist. Mr. Boogie Woogie 😊

[@kevinheard8364]

I actually try to end my days with your videos.... such a true inspiration...what we need MOST of all. Bless you, kind sir

[@riaarora3126]

The pure reaction from observer from being asked about the middle C to realizing this is a special performance is just pure joy.

[@user-JenF]

Genius at the piano shows the kid how it is done. Example can be a good teacher for this kid who already has some talent.

[@sergeybykov2]

Это шедевр. не ожиданно, что так много исполнителей задействано.

[@aimfuldrifter]

That was most beautiful version of this song ever... Brought tears to my eyes. Awesome job as always...

[@patriot0971]

This score needs to be studio published

[@gbugg1361]

Brendan, you're piano skills are quite something else & I speak on behalf of a musical family that spans generations. We all think the same & we love how you bring your amazing talent to so many. Please keep it up.

[@valeriehollinshead7294]

This man's versatility and amazing musical repertoire keep me coming back to watch and listen to his videos

[@daviddrost7963]

A beautifully touching rendition of Mamma Mia. Thank you Brendan.

[@TonyWhite22351]

The smile on the young fellows face when Brendon took it up tempo was epic ! Meanwhile the sheer number of non musicians walking by without even a glance is disturbing as I believe anyone who has attempted to play any instrument would surely have taken a few moments to appreciate the level of ability shown here !

[@denisgould5314]

Majestically beautiful!

[@user-JenF]

Yes, some people are tone deaf.

[@alenbarakayev785]

Brendan, you are the coolest pianist of all i know. Your videos are amazing and marvelous! When i have a terrible mood, i watch your videos. Your videos make me smile, enjoy life and cheer Up. Keep playing for us all)

[@nonnez324]

I agree. These videos compel me to learn piano beyond Chop Sticks and Peter Pumpkin Eater.

[@georgeisaak5321]

yeah i know what you mean my friend !!!! i found Brendan earlier last night , its morning in a few hours and i still cant take myself from his videos !!!!

[@pascalwallaert485]

You couldn't have said it better, it's addictive! Greetings from Belgium

[@Smokey7186]

Hes the only pianist I know the name of and happens to be the best. Can do anything with style. Reminds me of a guitar player I watch called The Dooo. Makes every song better.

[@EricPalmer_DaddyOh]

Check out Terry Miles on KZbin. Brendan and Terry are friends.

[@tomroberts5543]

That was a masterclass that the young lad will never forget - pure genius from Brendan

[@joewhite6421]

Congratulations Brenden ,you have taken one of the worlds great melodies and elevated it to an even higher. level.

[@professorpopkiss]

Back again, its my go to to make me happy. Thank you Dr K.

[@professorpopkiss]

I cant remember how many times I have watched this but it really is a class musical doc of everyday life through music and friendship. I love it.

[@iamsherk2605]

3:10 I loved it when they were dancing while passing by😂💕

[@professorpopkiss]

That couple that walked across at 3:15 will forever hold this moment in their memories. Such a beautiful version of the song.

[@ericgreaves2082]

😅😅😅

[@davidspence9749]

I have to say I have watched this video no less than 100 times, and every time I watch, it gets better and better.

[@caroltaylor3414]

At least the kid didn't stalk off in a huff when he found out he'd been conned! He's a good sport!

[@rossmacintosh5652]

Great to hear the Camera Lady break into song! She's usually so professional. 😎

[@johngrosh6910]

Like others, I've listened to this many times. To me the most incredible part is realizing that Dr K went to the station that day with no idea (and, one assumes, no prior preparation) that he would be playing Mamma Mia. I suspect that his entire take on the song was impromptu, that he was just making it up as he went along. Absolutely beautiful! I'd love to hear him create on the spot covers for a whole list of other songs. Thanks for sharing.

[@LindaMetz-q7c]

Brendan beautiful variation. This video is better everytime I hear it.

[@igomesigomes]

That was amazing. It's so nice to see you playing other styles, not only boogie woogie (although BW is pretty cool as well). Greetings from a fan from Brazil!

[@passtheparcel2007]

That moment when the young man realises he's in the presence of a genius, priceless. Music to my ears...

[@getsomeboi927]

You are just awesome at playing this!!! It is perfect. I've watched this so many times I bet you it's been watched by me over 100 times I wish I could go back to look to see how many times I've replayed it. wish It continued on longer. The second one was the giulietti playing sea shanty that was amazing too!!!

[@allancooper2672]

I love watching your videos. You are the only street performer to teach about the beauty of musical interpretation, who encourages novice artists with hope and new understanding. You entertain in such a beautiful way, never degrading anyone for their various levels of musical abilities and have fun with more advance musicians by playing duets. I wish that I didn't live in Canada but if I'm ever in the UK I'm making a side trip to shake your hand and say thank you. Music is a universal expression that defies the limits of language and culture existing in a realm that creates bonds in ways never replicated. Your love of music is only dwarfed by your love for people. Thank you.

[@ronaldreaggan8319]

I have the same opinion....(:

[@jaredmeek77]

3:17 Boogie Woogie has entered the ch- 3:20 Boogie Woogie has left the chat.

[@divindave6117]

Man that was awesome! Love your boogie, but your touch on "traditional" is top notch too. Please share more of this with us.

[@an9l1c1sm6]

I liked the dude smiling whenever you improvised even further.

[@ayeflock]

Literally the best interpretation of Mamma Mia that I have ever heard played on piano.

[@KcwPortreath]

I didn't know that Mamma Mia could be played in such a beautiful way, truly wonderful, thankyou.

[@johnpeaty3208]

Another brilliant video from Brendan. A nice kid and a good sport...

Brendan what your doing is great it make me get choked up trying to tell friends about you and your pranks I’m 74 and six foot four inches it bring me down to tears some times. I wish could come and play in Texas. Love it found you on March the third and all I want to do is to listen to you. God Bless

[@absurdengineering]

Brendan, they should knight you. Twice. You’re amazingly inspiring and on top of everything your music just rocks. Your public service is of incalculable value. You must have changed lives of thousands of people who got to interact with you.

[@4vndd]

You're absolutely spot on there... he's an absolute musical genius...and yet so modest and friendly..always willing to help and teach piano enthusiasts... God bless him...

-made several comments on this but I forgot to mention the young lad who started this, i think he is a very competent musician, and thank you for winding dr. k up to one of his best performances

[@josephhruby3225]

Bravo , Brilliant treatment

[@myraedwards3016]

When you can play, it shows - you wouldn't have fooled me!! Great pianist.

[@professorpopkiss]

To all musicians that share their talent, you are wonderful this is the way it should be, how else can it be improved on if its not shared. Ta Dr.K, Terry Miles, Henri Herbert, Sam Gasior, Laura Tapp,.

[@debistover7718]

This young man is absorbing everything you are playing! Always amazing Dr K!

[@AlexanderBukh]

Even made a note on his cell where the true middle c is.

[@comedywriter8408]

That was absolutely beautiful.

It isn’t that Dr. K has memorized so many tunes; the music lives in him.

How very soul satisfying to have found your true talent in life and then be able to nurture it to perfection . Well done, Dr K., loved your rendition of Mamma Mia, but then I enjoy all of your music which makes the soul sing.❤️

This came up in my feed tonight after a 12-hour intense day. How sweet and beautiful and helping me to wind down.

Andersson an Ulvaeus are among 20th centuries finest composers. Their tunes will still be played hundreds of years from now.

Looks like joe has had enough of you not remembering where the C is! 😂
