Chariots of Fire is the award-winning opening titles soundtrack from the movie of the same name. The sequence of the students running on the beach has made movie history! The soundtrack was composed in 1981 by Vangelis, it has been used ever since to celebrate sport moments. Mr Bean's version at the opening of the 2012 London Olympic Games is quite popular ;-)

What shall I do when I cannot afford the sheet music? :D

[@VOmaker]

@@simonvavra6608 It's not expensive. US$9.99 + $2.00 for a PDF. You must have the free app to use the interactive version. I just bought it. I'm only learning piano now, but Francesco inspires me, so I decided to get his arrangment as a goal to work toward. Someday, I will be good enough to play his arrangement, but not as well as he plays. I just love listening to him.

[@willianlode3450]

@@VOmaker If just the dollar wasn't so expensive! In Brazilian real it will cost more than R$60,00. I loved his arrangement of this song, but right now I can't afford it either

[@daeda99]

While I appreciate your tutorial videos, even on slow playback I have a hard time figuring fingering for those left hand arpeggios. I don’t know if you do your own engraving, but if you’d consider putting a few fingering suggestions on the hardest runs in your music I’d be even happier to buy it and learn it.

I was 17 years old, and i met my soullove, who introduced me to the pathetique by beethoven; it was the third part, that got me. i made it halfe way with the notes (and having passenges of playing too fast or to slow). but i still enjoy strking the first chords. i am going to play this one day, cause it i so beautiful.

I, in my whole life, have never seen a pianist actually change my entire day as it starts with watching something Francesco plays. I'm not kidding. I'm watching Francesco play CHARIOTS OF FIRE. Most of us have known this piece for years but have never seen a close-up of a master like Francesco's beautiful hands dancing over the ivories like this. I don't mind saying Francisco's arrangement of these pieces brings real tears of joy to my eyes. It really does. I start my day with my little ones with coffee and a huge mug of Francesco's genius. It's better than any therapy. Thank you so much.
